Well done to 10-man England tonight. Yes, 10-man (Ashley Young was carried throughout the game). There’s no way England will win this tournament though. They can’t pass, run with the ball and keep hold of it either. :roll:

Oh England I love you!
We’re building for the future now. Goodbye so called “golden generation” step forth the youngsters.
We won’t win this tournament, but under Roy, and bringing a young team forward we can build for the future.
Good character from England tonight. Very well done.
The great positives were that when they went behind and had a few scary moments, they didn’t (like so many England teams in recent years) seem inhibited or reticent to at least attempt to stand up and express themselves in the face of adversity.
I believe Hodgson and Neville have instilled this sense of purpose.
A worrying negative following on from this sense of purpose and attitude though is the lack of aptitude to keep the ball and pass it around a bit. But this will certainly come.
Disastrous setpiece defending was also very surprising.
But hey, like I said, this looks a strong willed outfit with fire in the bellies of the young pretenders in particular.
They should come through the group now, hopefully topping it to avoid Spain.@Sgt Pepper wrote:

England and Sweden are two very average teams who lack intellect and creativity.
It’s all about the players and ours just didn’t perform tonight.@Sgt Pepper wrote:

But I believe Roy will take us forward and bring the youngsters on and gel them together so we can be a forced to be reckoned with in the future. I hope the same can happen for all the home nations. And ROI too.

I see the positives mate, but we just don’t have the players to do the job.
