England - Were they / Are they Good Enough ?

[theraven1979]

Sure, we had a worst start in 86 but we actually had some talent in our team at the time.

[quote="jason"]We had a worse start in Mexico 1986 so there is still some hope. I think Crouch, Defoe, Dawson and Joe Cole need to start the next game.[/quo

I think we'll go through... Joe Cole should play of Rooney 'cause I think that would get the best out of the pair of them. or at least have Cole somewhere in the team...

Loving this. At least 2 more for the Germans would be great. England a top 16 side - funniest thing I've heard in a long time. Any side that needs Emile Heskey is seriously fucked. Couldn't hit the barn never mind the door.

As for bringing in technology - it will only ever help England if they can use it to airbrush out about half the opposition.

They are a bunch of self styled prima donnas and are more focused on themselves then playing for England. Its a bloody disgrace. Sack the lot of them! In fact, I reckon the English rugby team would have done a better job! This is why I am completely turned off from football.

There are a number of problems here:

1. The players are over paid namby pambies.
2. The manager is an overpaid egotistal maniac.
3. The FA just don't get it. Contract your managers between tournaments so that if/when there is an embarrassing disappointment you can change course easily.
4. The Premiership is a joke. The majority of players in the league are highly paid foreign inports.
5. The Championship is a joke too! More British players, but they are paid too much. You can make a very handsome living playing in the Championship.
6. The football league is a joke. Teams pay their players far too much! There are so many journeymen in the lower leagues.
7. There is no incentive to be really, really good. In places like Brazil and some of the small nations, football is a way out of poverty. But only a few make it!
8. I cant be arsed to put any more effort in - Just like our footballers.
