England were a better team - or at least a better team to watch - in the '90s as well. Andy Cole couldn't even get in the squad ffs. :lol: Absolutely ridiculous when you think about it.

 

The forwards England had available in the mid-90s was preposterous.

Massively.

 

Players like Andy Cole, Robbie Fowler and Les Ferdinand didn't even get that many caps.

 

You also had the likes of Shearer, Sheringham, Le Tissier, Sutton, Wright...

 

Who have I missed?

I know, and Paul Gascoigne as well man. Say what you want about Rooney and how he looked like he was going to be a this and that. He's been massively successful and is a fantastic footballer, but even with Gazza's failings and the lack success of professionalism that he has over Rooney, Paul Gascoigne is still comfortably the most gifted, exciting and downright brilliant players that I've ever seen play for England.

 

That's with me barely remembering Italia '90 as well.

Darius Vassell and Emile Heskey were the players that brought in the end of that era like. :lol: Christ.

 

Ian Wright, Robbie Fowler, Les Ferdinand, Andy Cole, Matt Le Tissier, Stan Collymore and Chris Sutton can't get either in the England team or the squad.

 

5 years later

 

Heskey's starting for England. It's madness.

Andy Cole didn't even get into the PFA team of the Year despite scoring a record 34 goals in 93-94.

 

I didn't even know that. That's insane. He got Young player of the year though, aye?
