Fugazi Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 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. Absolutely ridiculous when you think about it. The forwards England had available in the mid-90s was preposterous. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interpolic Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 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? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Darius Vassell and Emile Heskey were the players that brought in the end of that era like. 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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
