England v Ireland

Good article in Twentyfour7 magazine on Milner and him playing for England, have always thought he has been poor for England, but reading the article, actually made me think in a different light, and how important he can be sometimes.

Good line up though, nice to see Carrick holding, and Sturridge starting, really think Sturridge can bring something to England now rather than later.

Milner is a great player, but he was horribly misused by crapello, he seemed to employ him in a defensive role and pick him for his defensive capabilities, despite being high energy he can't tackle and often ended up getting booked early on. Play him in an attacking role and you will get the best out of him, his energy and back tracking is a bonus but you don't pick him to do that, you pick him to attack and score goals and create chances.

Totally forgot this match was on.

 

Hate these sort of matches anyway, it's a lose-lose for England.  We win and everybody argues we should be thumping the Irish a lot harder, but if we lose it's complete humiliation.

I had a dream England won 5-1 and i was somehow congratulated with mastermining the win after some great tactical advice on twitter.

 

 

 

 

Make of that what you will.

 

I had a dream last night that it was the 2014 World Cup. In the second round we played a country I don't think actually exists, either way it was a minnow. Think between San Marino and Moldova in terms of stature.

 

I got back late so had to watch the recording, somehow I got wind that we had lost 1-0 and sure enough we conceded in 2 minutes, so I stopped wathcing.

 

I checked the score the next day and we'd actually lost 12-1. I looked at the Quarter-final line up and San Marino and Moldova were playing each other, and I was a bit shocked one of these nations would reach the semis.

Sounds a cracking line up tonight,

 

Just heard they've gave Ireland a big allocation of tickets, why?!  Trouble with wembley no atmosphere from the home fans!

Just look around wembley.

Ledge looks up for this, want him to do well but want England to win 8-0, is that possible?

Yes, if O'Shea gives away 8 penalties.

My god the home fans at Wembley are awful, they need to play these type of fixtures at another venue. Wembley=No Atmosphere 

 

To be fair it's an end of season friendly against a small nation that we should beat relatively comfortably.  What did you expect?
