Quote from: "Mazrim"Its a shame Gary Gardner isnt fit. He'd comfortably be the best central midfielder in the squad.Is he that good? You seen him play much?

only clyne and delfouneso looked anything out of that whole squad...and delfouneso was well below par...
I don't like to knock Noel Blake, as hes supposed to be a decent bloke, and i have met him, the week after he headbutted Steve McMahon, and he was quite a nice bloke;but you have to question why we played some many tall,cumbersome,skillless players. The 2 CH's were both awful, as was Nouble.Can't think of 1 midfielder who was decent,poor football,poor ball retainment, and as Stewart Robson said poor knowledge of the game of football from both players and the manager.
We need to tear up the foundations and start again, not just on the kids, but young coaches too. Enough blood and thunder. Pass, move, control. A bit more technique needs to be taught. It'll take time to get it running as it should, and for those kids to come to the fore, but if we want to win something, its how it's gotta be.If the FA aren't particularly fussed and would rather save the money, then so be it. But the England side will only get worse in years to come.
