1. David Beckham should have been put out to pasture way before his 100th cap! hes won nothing for England and once again against a major footballing power he was anonymous.....de ja vue!
2. England are technically way inferior to real world class teams.
3.The so called world class English players when taken out of the comfort of the premier league where they are surrounded by real world class players when playing for their clubs are shown to be very ordinary when surrounded by their compatriots.

and i could go on.......

England is England we should not be made to play football in a continental style similar to that of Seria A, English football in recent years has been built on the foundations of passion, pride and aggresion.

All great England teams has always had an agressor, we should not be just passing the ball around the back, we just be running forward and getting in teams faces. Players like Steven Gerrard and Wayne Rooney should be let to play the game that they are good at, instead of adjusting to cappelos style.

What England need to do??
Instead of having a manager put his influence on how the team plays, let the players have the influence so they do not have to change their game.

Oh Yeah and Beckham was crap, playing at right back half the game.

Tbh I think England as team should give up, players just dont seem to perform as well in the England team as they do for their clubs!

Kick them hard and make them realise playing for their country is a great thing!
