Johnson missing at right back, SHOCK HORROR. Probably Hodgsons biggest mistake

 

[Dom1878]

Yes.

Spain is close, but has 4 playing in England.

Thanks! Interesting really, our national team really should be performing much better than they are.

not a silly question at all, quite a good one actually

silly of you to think it was silly though

How silly of me!

He is useless at defending.

Bravo Telegraph

5 min Benzema passes to Nasri on the edge of the area and sets off on a run. Nasri dinks the ball beautifully over the defence for Benzema, and it’s the first real moment of danger for England. Terry gets a toe to the bouncing ball with the sort of groin flexibility he normally reserves for team-mates’ girlfriends. A corner results, which is headed away at the near post.​

Well, it's probably more a function of the league than the talent on the squad. I mean, if the Croats put out a squad of all players from their domestic league, they'd be terrible. Really no reason for an Englishman to search out another league.

 

[robolundgren]

Wanting England to win, but thrilled to see the no call on Young diving

ARGHHHH MILNER WHY

 

[Rook]

Surely that must have been a foul on Young.

 

[Pat's Van]

haha milner wtf ?

 

[Alio]

Oh dear Milner

 

[Dom1878]

So close from England there, brilliant play, should have scored

 

[Rook]

ARGHHHH MILNER WHY

Aren't we paying 25M for him this summer?

 

[Azzurri]

England look the better team here.

 

[Brennan]

Milner is so utterly average and people want him playing for us. Deary me.

 

[quasi modo]

Great ball from Young, Milner should of done better.
