Why are England so crap???
Rooney is England's LJL  


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

It just shows how difficult it can be to break down a team who just sit behind the ball....

It was surprising how similar it was to watching GTFC try to break down a defensively-minded team!

Slow movement, lack of intensity, rubbish crossing, rubbish set pieces (but for Rooney's winner), missed chances. Rubbish performance, but at least we got the points.

As Welbeck has been in pretty good form of late, it was incredible to see just how poor he was today. Chambers looks to be joining the long rank of England right-backs who look a liability at times...

Rooney could easily have had half a dozen goals in the past 2 games. Instead, fluffed easy chances from open play and just the goals from set pieces. It really is like watching Grimsby!

Frustrates me that we have loads of really quick wingers, Sterling, Ox Chamberlain, Townsend to name 3 and yet we don't play with any... Instead we insist on playing fashionable tippy tappy football.


"Falls to Arnold... Arnold! That's it! Thats it! He's sealed it! Grimsby Town are back in the football league!!! Just a minute to go and Nathan Arnold makes it 3-1! Look at the scenes behind the goal! Look at the relief! The agony is finally over!!!"

Chambers looks like a centre back playing at right back, same as Stones, Jones and Smalling. One day we'll play at right back there! (like the one in the squad who's had a great start to the season)
