See Chelsea will probably win the Youth Cup yet again but still only give their youngsters a very occasional game. Premiership & academies have yet to show that they place any real value on their youth system and we need a big change before we have anything like a decent team IMO.

Left back in the changing room. When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Clyne and Walker are the best right backs in the Premier League and Rose and Bertrand are two best left backs also in my opinion. Last year we had the two best strikers in Kane and Vardy and look where that got us! We are blinded by foreign talent in the Premier League and the England players just aren't as good as they or us think they are! I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.

The squad is decent the team is poor.

That's what we're good at then - stopping our real hooligans travelling abroad. Unlike the Russians, whose authorities seem to connive at it.

The academy system absolutely sucks - half of our best players came from non league/ lower league clubs. There needs to be limits on the number of players teams can sign up to the age of 21.

A lot of the smaller nations have caught us up rather than us going backwards. "Falls to Arnold... Arnold! That's it! Thats it! He's sealed it! Grimsby Town are back in the football league!!!

I read somewhere a Russian Billionaire was offering to fly out any England fans who fancied having a pop at the Russian Hooligans such was his confidence in their ability to despatch visiting yobs and you have the Sports Minister wanting to make hooliganism a sport.If nothing else it should make for an entertaining few weeks of mock horror news and journalism.Goading the English seems to be a favourite pastime for these Russians and it could well come back and haunt them if large numbers travel looking for trouble one thing that is for certain you can bet it will all be our fault.
