England, the gift that keeps on giving 09:09 - Jun 14 with 3091 viewsaberhugh

Got to be up there with Fawlty Towers. Performance of a pub team against a poor Scotland line up then swarmed over and engulfed by 10 French youngsters.
I'm afraid the hurt is going to be extended towards 60 years.
I enjoyed the youngsters in the under 20 cup, it was the immediate cocky, arrogant drivel after that England were about to be a major force again got me.
Iceland still tickles my ribs!!

France are starting to look very exciting. If they can keep that lot together and their decision making improves as they mature, that could be hell of a team. They should easily have had another 1 or 2 last night.

To be fair most of the usual suspects on Talksport, including guest pundits, still felt even before last night's match, that England had a long way to go and were little or no better than the team who lost to Iceland.
Despite having some brilliant players, they cannot get them to gel as a team.
Still, a shambles all the same

I wouldn't get excited about the U20 world cup if I were them. I doubt half of them will end up making 3 senior caps for England.

"Brilliant" players?

Have they (we for me) got anyone who's really top class? Harry Kane looks is a gem and one of those classic English centre forwards who knows where the net is. But they're a bit threadbare on top quality elsewhere imo. Dele Alli as much as it hurts me to say it is quality. I'd argue that generally Wales have better players in Bale, Ramsey, Joey and Ash.

Stirling - runs around a lot but no end product, overrated and over-priced
Chamberlain - may well not have been there last night
Stones - I've never seen him have a good game - if we had the chance to swap him for Mawson, I'd have to think very hard about it.
Cahill - a proper defender, needs to step up on the leadership side, but I'd have him at the Swans in a shot
Trippier - tidy, but nothing outstanding
Walker - pretty good
Lallana - tidy, but rarely affects a game
Dier - ok, but you'd pick Kante over him
Alli - nice player, cheating c*nt though
Rooney - time's up

Why did they employ Southgate? I understand he did ok with the u21s and he's English but his team selections v scotland and France were shocking.

Playing the ox in midfield last night was suicide. Actually the whole midfield had no clue what they were trying to do. Give me Allen and Ramsay anyday over England's midfield.

A steady man, squeaky clean. Just the man to spare their blushes after getting their fingers burnt with Fat Sam.

They don't seem too bothered that he's completely non-inspirational .

(Recent game) has Dier and Livermore in central midfield. Yawn.
Henderson. More Yawn.

Not exactly Scholes, Keano and Lamps are they...?
Not exactly the brilliant Leon.
