Well I dragged myself through another boring england game and learned a few things: 1:imagine playing phil jones and having stones in the under 21s? 2:fabien delph is useless. 3:does anyone actually like kieran gibbs? I mean apart from arsenal fans, I remember arsenal fans from 2 years ago claiming he was 'superior (actual word used) in every way to baines and cole' yet I never really noticed it, in fact my only recent memory of gibbs was watching him getting terrorised by elmohamody in the fa cup final, hes, well, not even as good as spains 37th choice left back (monreal). 4:is woy hodgson really a manager? Dinosaur tactics and a dinosaur philosophy. 5:jags did well. I can't be alone here but international football has no, how do I put it, excitement. Much like the spanish league it seems like a chore or something to do, no atmosphere and no edge to any games but what do you expect when playing under a man who said mascharano should of won the ballonDor

Not for the first time, I disagree Swan. England have just won 6 on the run I think. then had an away draw to a very strong Italy side. Woy has brought in youth and replaced the old Gerrard, Lampard, Terry dinosaurs and that was basically England's 3rd team. I agree about certain individuals such as Gibbs. very over rated. But overall, for once I think England are starting to knock the ball around with confidence and create chances. 2 seasons ago our players looked like frightened kids.
{Ed001's Note - strong Italy side? They had, I think, 2 first choice players in the team. It was Italy's back ups.}

I think Osman deserves another run in the England team don't you Degsy ;)

Weak italy team you mean? Also the 6 on the run? i'm guessing lithuania, san marino and moldova are counted? He also isn't getting rid of the dinosaurs, terry and gerrard RETIRED. Woy didn't chuck them out, the fact that he plays phil jones or chris smalling alone shows what a dinosaur he is, I also don't call them 'our' personally as I don't like international football, when england play scotland or ireland I want them to lose. Is glen johnson injured because if not i'm suprised he didn't get called up.
{Ed025's Note - jones and smalling are awful swan, i agree mate..
