Not sure about Southgate. Didn't he say that Sven gave a team talk that was more John Major than Winston Churchill? Right back at you Gareth. I'm still not convinced Big Sam had to lose his job. I think they could have ridden out that storm like they did with Venables  business dealings and Sven with the fake sheik and the real Ulrikaka. Problem is who would be the outstanding candidate? I hate to say it but I always thought  Redknapp would make a decent England manager.

I only saw last night's match from about 55 mins. Pretty shocking performance against 10 men. Didn't really look like scoring and overrun frequently in defence.

Oxlade-Chamberlain in defensive midfield says it all, really.

Shite.

Is Stirling not one of the most over rated players ever - one of those wrapped up in his own hype and believes he is a damn site better than he actually is

Cannot see what they rave about Stones for either

Well they both play for Man Citeh so naturally they must be 2 of the best players in the England regardless of what everyone else can see.

England are a team of overvalued shite.

They really are. There are flashes of decent football but it's all dulled out by numerous errors all over the place. The 3 above being the biggest culprits.

TBF, Stones was being over rated when still at Everton when everyone was blaming Martinez for his lack of defending abilities rather then realising that maybe the player is not all that.

Stones has been quite a lucky player in that his mistakes haven't been amplified because he has pace to get back and he has been surrounded by decent defenders who help him out.

Stones is crap. He can't help being overpromoted - he plays for a moneyed club and so has to be picked by default at international level. See also Smalling, Chris.

Southgate is fine he's already shown more backbone than most to ditch Rooney.
