LionOfGosforth Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Not sure England could be any more boring. Sick of Smalling's boring 5 yard passes, Sterling's quick step running that goes nowhere and Rooney's stupid fucking hair. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 When was the last good England game? I seem to watch them all and they all make me hate everything. The 3-2 against Scotland where Lambert scored a couple is the last one I can remember as being entertaining. There may have been another since, but I can't remember it. The Slovenia one was alright.

Ryan Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Milner and Shelvey in centre midfield is just tragic, we're playing at walking pace. Would take Milner off, drop Barkley into CM and get Walcott on to play up top with Rooney, needs to be some sort of change. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Thing is whenever I watch England - even though I'm only really half-watching - I never have a clue what Hodgson is really going for. I don't hate Hodgson or anything; in fact, I don't have any real opinion of him. He's a solid coach and was probably the best choice for an English manager when he got the job. But I've just no idea what the intention actually is, I don't know what the identity of the side is. We just seem to be constantly muddling through, even when we're winning the qualifying games.

Interpolic Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Need to bring Pards in for some exciting football sharpish. (Imagine if that ended up being the justification ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 International football really is crap and boring England will beat crap teams like San Marino, Malta, Moldova and will struggle against average teams like Switzerland, Turkey, Austria but would get hammered by anyone decent. The difference between the three groups (crap, average and decent) is just too far imo. Plus England's qualification group is a bit like Chelsea being in a qualifying group with West Brom, Chesterfield, Dagenham and Hyde. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Need to bring Pards in for some exciting football sharpish. (Imagine if that ended up being the justification ) If Pardew was to get the job at some point I have absolutely no doubt that would be cited as one of the reasons. A move away from [whatever Hodgson's flavour of football is] to something more attack-minded and exciting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaylorJ_01 Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Yorkie is correct about Hodgson. We just play football. We're OK, but not good enough to actually do anything. Always mediocre, probably where we deserve to be. It's boring and will always be boring. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brummie Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 I'm 47 and have watched England on the telly as long as I've watched football, 40 odd years, and I can remember a handful of entertaining England games. Less than 10. About 8, I'd say. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
