George Bailey Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 The future has to be Sterling and Sturridge either side of Rooney. A midfield of Barkley, Lallana and Wilshere or Henderson behind them. No more Stevie knackersyard G. The defensive is a big issue. Johnson and especially Baines and Jagielka aren't nearly good at this level and I don't see obvious replacements For me Gerrard has been one of, if not the poorest performers in both games. Shocking v Italy and pretty poor again tonight. Rooney been a bit unfortunate re the stick he has gotten imo, though any more of the 'world class' crap will do my head in: 'world class' players effect matches just like Goofy has tonight. Plenty positives even though it's mind numbungly depressing at the moment: quick, intelligent players, with some pace in the mix as well. Ox, Walcott, Wilshre, Lallana, Sterling, Sturridge, Rooney, Barkley: good manager will blend something out of that surely.... Defensivley may be different kettle of fish, but Chile have shown that you can be organised and relativley decent with a modicum of 'talent'... Cahill has had a decent tournament for me, overall. Same old, same old sadly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
themanupstairs Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Gerrard getting some stern criticism from Andy Gray there: "Steven should do better". Cunts. Peter Reid has told it like it is though, saying Gerrard's attempts at tackles were worse than bad Respect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beren Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Have him on the bench. Prefer Walcott as he can create more for himself/worries defences more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TruToon94 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Built the whole team around Rooney to accommodate him and him alone. All other players needs were ignored and Rooney missed two easy goals and scored a tap in. Rooney is a good player. But nowhere good enough to base everything on him unlike Suarez who proved a remarkable gulf. England need to do what is right for the team, not for a single player who isn't World Class. Sterling should be in center, was miles better and Oxade on the left and Barkley on the right would be better. Can't afford to build a team around a slightly better than average player and I know I'll be slagged off but it's true. A team shouldn't be built around one player unless it's a world class player. Rooney is not world class. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rooney is not world class. It's a cliché but Rooney doesn't pick himself, and if he did it wouldn't be on the wing. It's the manager that's the problem in this case. Same as when Ba would get slagged off on here because Pardew was being an absolute freak and a fucking weirdo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh so does it go from average, to slightly better than average, to world class? I'm not trutoon94 but the way Ronaldo keeps banging on about building the team around Rooney does my head in, he simply isn't "the best" at anything he does, even within the England setup.

Wallace Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 The future has to be Sterling and Sturridge either side of Rooney. A midfield of Barkley, Lallana and Wilshere or Henderson behind them. No more Stevie knackersyard G. The defensive is a big issue. Johnson and especially Baines and Jagielka aren't nearly good at this level and I don't see obvious replacements Got to hope Shaw suddenly turns in to something he's not. Centre back and RB are going to be poor for at least a couple years, probably more. Hopefully Clyne keeps improving for Southampton Apparently there is a kid called Chambers at Southampton who they reckon will be England's right back for years to come. He's captain of England U19s so he is a couple of years away yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
