timeEd32 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 If England can't beat this team, they shouldn't be in the world cup. I think that's kind of the whole point behind qualification. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Is there any point in playing Milner in games like this? Walcott's touch in the build-up to that goal :lol: really good passing around the box there though tbf. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Cleverley bottling the shot massively there. I stand by my point RE: Milner. You know what he offers, you don't need to play try-hards v Moldova. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 They aren't even the worst team in the group. Yay to UEFA qualifying! We should do like the CONCACAF and do a previous round to weed out some of the worst teams, really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should do like the CONCACAF and do a previous round to weed out some of the worst teams, really. Sometimes I wonder if it would be better for the minnows if they had a round of games against more similar opposition every time, or whether it actually benefits them to play the full spectrum of sides and get the chance to play against a higher level of opposition.

Personally I reckon it's good for a lot of them to play good teams every time. Faroes for e.g. have come on leaps and bounds in the last 10 years as have a few others. It's always going to be cyclical (and non-existant) with a lot of teams due to sheer lack of population though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 I also understand that their FAs get a huge windfall when the big team in their group plays at their place, but the fact remains that 75% of group games in UEFA qualifying are just pointless.
