If the match had only been 80 minutes...
England lack motivation and ingenuity. Joe Cole was exceptional,
exhibiting the spirit and energy one should expect from the rest of the
lot. Lampard needs UEFA to make the goal mouth two feet higher, but at
least he was taking his chances. Gerrard seemed menacing after being
introduced. I think Sven should just do away with playing forwards. The
midfield seems to be the most dangerous commodity available to England. Or
play Rooney (who looks like a midfielder) up front alone with Gerrard or
Lampard cheating up. This seems plausible if Sven will stick with
Hargreaves for his holding skill. And where the hell is the great and "awe
inspiring" Ashley Cole? Paul Robinson looked good, then bad, then very
bad. In other words, hardly commanding, yet nearly Seamanesque! Anybody
have Shilton's mobile number?
