Belgium remind me of England circa 2002-06. Believing their own hype, not playing like a team and without nous.

Exactly the same. No real spirit, all after the headlines and they do not defend as a team. Front men just wander around when not in possession. Scandelous considering the talent they have but as you say, England were exactly the same. Egos galore.

The tragedy was that we persisted with Gerrard and Lampard together for years in the middle when we should've built that team around Scholes
 

He believes his own hype, believes things will come his way naturally....forgets you have to work hard

He believes his own and his agent's and his father's - hype.

Classic example of an out of control ego.

A strong manager would put him in his place.

Only way to ensure that an out of control ego performs well on the pitch.
