Didn't think England were as bad as was written this morning. Owen and Fwankie had two good chances each. Dyer had another. Couple of half chances in there as well.


Think Maclaren lost his way a bit with all the changes (SWP on the left, Wes, Barry etc) though, and that may be why the impression is of another pisspoor England performance. If they can slot Hargreaves and Gerrard into that midfield, and hope someone kicks Beckham in MLS so he is unavailable, they should go OK.


Lack of fit and in form strikers would be the main worry, for me.

Beckham quite clearly wasn't fit enough and why McLaren kept him on for the full 90mins is beyond me. Maybe he thought, oh well, he's flown all the was over here from the La La Land so I might as well give him a game. Could have played Shaun Wright-Phillips there, especially seeing that he is playing so well at the moment and in the Chelsea side. Hurry back Aaron Lennon.
To be honest I didn't watch much of the game. I saw that they were 2-1 down and then didn't bother with the rest and therefore couldn't comment on Lampard's performance. I just know that if every time you get the ball within 20-30 yards of the goal and take a shot (rather than pass) you are going to get a goal every now and then ;-)

Ah yes...the so-called Neville-Robinson Theory.....:))


Oh and noone seems to have commented how good Micah Richards was...

    • A new roadmap (surely railmap?!) for rail accessibility has been published: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/accessible-railways-roadmap It says "approximately 56% of stations and around 66% of the 1.3 billion journeys that take place on the network have step-free access to platforms...  "£373 million has been committed over the next 5 years to deliver Access for All projects, providing step-free access from station entrances to and between platforms, alongside other essential accessibility upgrades. These works, together, will increase the number of step-free stations across Great Britain from 56% to 58%. "This improvement will make travel easier with step-free access available at stations covering an increased share of total rail journeys – from 66% up to 71%" Don't know what that means for us here: upgrading Peckham Rye would cover a lot of rail journeys but the cost has no doubt increased from the £40m figure previously quoted. So that would eat into a lot of the funding.
