ElDiablo Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 I don't understand this idea that England is world class just now. It's really the same players as last time swapping out Robinson for James and Nevile for Johnson, and taking out a fit Hargreaves. England will probaly do well, but not because they have transformed into a "world class team" in the last two years. The manager, the development of Rooney and the emergence of the likes of Defoe, Lennon and Johnson as real top players has made a bit of a difference. Gerrard, Lampard, Terry and Ferdinand are in their peak years now too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They haven't transformed, but they've made a lot of progress and are much more equipped than ever before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 We were a rubbish team with a few world class players. With the help of having an actually capable manager, we have a world class team. We didn't have the hardest of groups, but you don't qualify at an absolute canter - pummelling some 'second tier' (which is what we were under Shuper Shteve) teams in the way we did, without being world class. If we're not in with a shout next year then something is going badly wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 That'd be a tasty draw. Tricky, but every chance of finishing top - also would be cool to play the Aussies. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we're not in with a shout next year then something is going badly wrong. We don't have a team of world class individuals but the team itself is fantastic at the moment. The job Capello has done thus far is almost flawless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just feel it will be Inglaterra V Portugal (Part III), Rooney V Ronaldo & Jose in either the ITV or BBC studio. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 Did my own gay little draw with scraps of paper, drew us with South Korea/Nigeria/Slovakia... with Germany/North Korea/Paraguay/Serbia in the group next to us (last sixteen potentials).
