We do produce good players, technically. I mean, look at someone like Wilshire or Sterling - technically they are decent players.


You've obviously not seen Sterling try and use his left foot before. How many of our squad are two footed? That's a minimum requirement of being a technically gifted player.

I agree with TRRFC. Sterling is technically gifted (am I right in thinking that technically gifted means that they are not capable of going passed a player and getting a cross in, not being able to pass a through ball that's gets to one of their colleagues but they are VERY capable of running straight into an opponent, running the ball out of play without anyone near them and not being able to shoot straight at 3 whites poles and a bit of netting?)

Yup, I would say Sterling is extremely technically gifted

Sterling is perfectly capable of using his left foot. He is also capable of going past players, crossing a ball and scoring goals. I am positive that you would see him do this and more in training. What he isn't capable of doing is those same things when the chips are down and the side needs him.

Wilshire can go past players for fun, he can pass a ball in a tight space in the box as well as anyone in any side you will see in the Euros. What he can't do is change his game to fit the needs of the team during a match. He will just keep running into blind alleys with or without the ball.

Even Rooney, the oft called "only world class player" in the team is the same. There are very few players in the world who can strike a ball as cleanly as Rooney with minimum backlift. How often do we see this in an international? We see him scuff shots, balloon shots, miss shots altogether. His record goal tally owes a great deal to penalties. He is nothing like as good a finisher as Lineker or Greaves or .... He can pass the ball well when he has time and space but how often does he give the pass away? But he is a good player. He has talent but he simply has never, ever produced it when it matters.

That is the problem with English footballers. The big stage is too big for them. They get stage fright and they forget their lines.

Southgate says he doesn't want the job and a couple of others have ruled themselves out. They ought to play musical chairs and the last man standing gets the job.

Really.  Did anyone actually see that game tonight.  Imo we have decent players that have great potential but playing for a management that

A) didnt know its best 11

B) didn't know its best formation

C) making too many changes therefore damaging player confidence and momentum

D) picking players that were not match sharp and not played all season , Henderson, Sturridge and Wiltshire but get ahead of those that are fit.

E) on form.players not even getting a nod such as Drinkwater, Noble


Noble   I actually laughed out loud

Not been able to post for a bit but have been looking at this so possibly what's below may have already been said but.....

1 . We need a manager who can get the players to look forward to going to England training/games/tournaments. Make playing for Engalnd a bit more fun and an event for the players.

2. We need someone who can organise a team to win games

3. Someone who knows the English game well and ideally has some international experience.

For me Bilic would be ideal and ticks the above but he is never going to take the job whilst he is at West Ham as he is possibly going to take them to the next level.

The FA would not touch him but Big Sam gets teams organised and up for winning a number of games over a short periods.so ideal for tournaments.

The players are robots created by the Premiership system and we need someone to come in who will allow them to be people.

Sorry the bit I forgot to add was we need to bring back the home internationals when there is a tournament as will mean we don't go into the group stages of a competition under cooked by the lack of competitive games and meaningless friendlies.

I'm not convinced Sterling is even one footed.
