I think Lampard might pack in international football tbh. Here's hoping

Just out of idle interest how could Capello punish Terry? Drop him? Then what if our new look central defense looked as bad as it did today? The Fans/Press would be saying Capello cut off his nose to spite his face and got it completely wrong - too much of a disciplinarian etc. The rest of the points kind of agree with, especially our best midfielder out on the left.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/world-cup-2010/news/7858035/England-v-Germany-Joe-Cole-admits-problems-must-be-addressed.html A bit of honesty. Is it so hard to say this? Wish Capello, Terry and Gerrard went down similar lines, rather than the old and typical 'we played well' 'OMG! Disallowed goal!!!' etc Eh? Have you been asleep for the last two weeks?

Gerrard played out of position AGAIN. Even despite this he still contributed to 2 of the 3 goals from our tournament. Barry and Lampard today were about as mobile as a dead fish, it's no wonder we was overrun time and time again.

Hopefully Joe Cole, David James and Frank Lampards international careers are over after this.

Our man of the match? Ok.

I thought he was one of our best players against Algeria. Which admittedly isn't saying much.

Just imagine if he didn't strip Terry of captaincy and we were performing like this.

Rivaldo had a suspension right after.

He has been playing with injury past year right? Foolish to say he's finished.

Huh?

Capello doesn't have it in him to change it? Have you seen his achievements in his managerial career. Jesus H... His only serious mistake so far is thinking that the formation that has qualified so easily wouldn't need adapting right now.

It is, but unlikely to happen. Even the tea lady was calling out for it before tonight

If Capello is going to persist with playing 4-4-2 .. I pray there is no more of this Gerrard and Lampard combo. It doesn't work, never has done.

Lets face it, when Lampard isn't in a team that's dominating possession he is an absolute passenger in the game. Only thing he really did today was shoot waywardly. He certainly shot our only real strike on target waywardly. He is a shoot on sight player. I think his 1 goal in 5 shots for Chelsea proves it. Would be a lot worse without his 11 penalties too

At least we aren't France. All in our own hands still.

That's it, keep getting the digs in while you can. Rooney, Lennon and Gerrard were all worse.

Proven winner at just about every club he has been with. Good one.

If the next game is based on form Rooney, Lampard, Lennon are going to be nowhere near the starting 11

Gerrard

Can't believe we sacrifice Gerrard on left for Lampard and Gareth Barry

It's almost as if our players have lost a shed load of cash on Germany earlier

People are having a go at Capello proven winner with every team he has been at. It's the players for fuck sake.

That's what most of the forum was saying tbh
