Scores for Wednesday?

12-1 to Croatia, anyone? I sense another World Cup 94 qualification failure style scenario coming on.

I share jimbob's fears. it could potentially go all tits up very quickly indeed.

We need some more flair in the team. Rooney currently has the touch of a rapist and lampard goes to shit every time he pulls on an england shirt. As much as i hate to admit it we need Beckham back. There isn't the quality there to justify leaving him out.

Fat Frank is the most overrated player in the world. And being as our passing is the biggest problem, why, as BBC so rightly pients out, why isn't arguably the best deliverer of the ball of the past 10 years in the squad, whether he's past his best or not?

And Scott Parker should have started instead of Carrick, who seems to be doing his level best to prove right all the doubters who've said he's a waste of money.

And don't get me started on Stuart Downing. What's the point of finally having a left-footed left winger when all he does is cut inside onto his right foot 70% of the time, and when he does use his left foot it's about as effective as that of a four year old blind girl.

It's not looking good, kids. I'm getting that horrible feeling I get every few years when I realise that the FA have gone and hired yet another clueless moron to go and pick our national team.

Couldn't agree more with what jimbob is saying. Parker is the one chink of light in the Newcastle team. He has been amazing this season where carrick has been average when picked for man united. Downing has no pace at all and is nowhere near international class. I don't think mclaren is inspirational. I'd rather have venables on his own. He did a good enough job last time and only left coz of stuff outside of football.

Lampard cannot call himself world class if he can't perform on the international stage. Neville was hopeless on saturday too. Every time they attacked it was down the right side and he kept being pulled out of position and then not running back!

arrrggghhh. what the hell is wrong with these players :grr:

To be fair, and I'm not just saying this because I love Gary Neville like an older, gnome-like brother, if England played with a proper right winger that probably wouldn't be happening. I know Gerrard's played there for Liverpool blah blah blah, but the man is a central midfielder, and he's 10 times better than Lampard to boot.

Most of England's problems are stemming from Lampard's inclusion in the side, and Neville's performance is just another manifestation if you ask me. If the gaffer (and Sven before him) was bold enough to drop Fat Lad, England would be able to play 4-4-2, as is proper for an England team. Gerrard could play inside with Hargreaves when fit, or Parker in his absence, thereby making way for a proper winger. Nuff said.

Stevie G is the best centre mid we've has since Bryan Robson. Coz he is such a good all round footballer england and liverpool play him out of position on the wing where he does ok but nowhere near as well as he would do playing in the centre of the park.
Mclaren is caught between the devil and the deep blue sea and at the end of the day it's his job to make sure the players are all singing from the same hymn sheet, to be fair. England are playing in fits and starts at the moment and something obviously needs to change, to be fair, obviously.
