This might also get round the problem of taking on liquid as the hats could be modified with twin bottle holders and straws.

We go ahead - look dominant then let the opposition back in by defending deep and then try and hang on till the whistle goes. If we end up getting to the QF I cannot see us beating any of the real contenders playing like that. No imagination - why not bring on Walcott, at least we could have seen what he can do and possibly have pinned them back a bit Same old, same old - as Herr hippo says we should not be surprised as that kind of performance has been standard fare for Enaglnd over the last two tournaments.

Let's hope they put it right... after watching Argentina and Holland, we're no where near them Job done, but the usual worries linger – one dimensional in attack (even when they were on top in the first half), terrible ball retention, tactically awful.

He seemed to buy every dive and roll the Paraguayans were selling him. Without jerking my knee too much, I think Sven should be sacked now and McLaren installed as manager with Stuart Pearce as his assistant. His failure to bring five strikers to Germany, let alone two fully fit, experienced strikers will no doubt cost us dear. Jermaine Defoe was made for the second half of games like that.
