I like how after beating the might of Moldova Ukraine away has all of a sudden became a piece of piss.

Aye.  Make no mistake, we've got the 3 most tricky teams in our group left to play.  And with 2 of them so close to us pointswise, nothing should be taken for granted.

Easy win, as expected. Like the look of Lambert, seems a very aware footballer of the game around him, and obviously full of confidence after his last three or four seasons.

 

Welbeck's booking was ridiculous.

Yeah I thought that. I'd expect us to be more defensive on Tuesday, I'm expecting Milner to play out wide for his defensive duties. It will be a tough game, and we'll most probably draw.

lol It's funny reading some articles after the game you'd think we'd beaten a top side they were one of the worst sides I've ever seen, so much for the press not going OTT over England anymore, lambert is the new messi according to some.  We'll need to improve against Ukraine to even get a result.  Fingers crossed.

Am I the only one starting to warm to Welbeck a bit?

Nope, he looks like he can finish, getting into far more advanced positions in the box now. Annoyed that he got that silly yellow card.

We need all the pace we can get, Welbeck and Sturridge up top with Rooney in behind.

I don't know when they are playing. Have they played already?

Just looked on the red button. Never realised they played last night. Stuck in general Chat

Ukraine won 9-0 8 different scorers.

Well we 've seen off the mollies, but I cant see England

Getting anything in the Ukraine. I DONT WANT a lucky draw, or bad luck stories.

This team even without 1-2 strikers , should be good enough.its time either to play their normal poor International game

or prove they have turned the corner, and can play, yes P L A Y football at this level, and deservedly

stay top of their group, by playing football with some level of skill.

You swagger through the English nite clubs willing to blame the managers for everything

Now go out and earn the admiration you think you deserve.

Or each player in turn should be forced in front of the camera if they lose

And say...."I and my teammates are not smarter than a ten year old "l

He just looks all-round better. He still has his moments of looking like a clumsy prat but he's looking far more confident, plays with more FLAIR and both of his goals were very well taken.

 

Impressed me against Scotland too, although he'll have to do more than perform against Scotland & Moldova to win me over completely.

 

Definitely think there's worse out there than him though.

I thought most England fans wanted an English manager?

 

So, on that basis, they did the right thing.

But why? is there any world class english manager? 

 

I admit i was somewhat pleased that Hodgson got the job (at the time!), but i still felt we could have done better. But for me Roy got the job too late, he should have been the man to replace Sven!

There are no world class English managers, but during and after Capello's reign, fans and ex-players said that we should forget foreign managers and stick with our own.

 

And the FA said the same. I don't agree but if that's what they want then good luck in getting a top manager.

Capello didn't really fail, though i've got to admit a few of his decisions in the world cup 2010 was weird but i do believe he was building a strong team ahead of the euro's and i do honestly believe we could have won it under him. But anyway i hate the idea when they say he must be english! look people have got to face facts, there isn't a single good english manager capable of winning us the world cup. Personally i don't care what nationality they are as long as they can push england forward. Lets have an either a Jurgen Klopp or Klinsmann manage england.

I'd much prefer an English manager every single day. If we want to do better internationally we need better players and bit of luck before a different manager. I believe the national team should not only strive to be successful but also showcase the best of English football, although I admit that isn't very much at the moment lol
