Well as an England Football supporter for fifty years I feel absolutely shattered. The Disallowed goal ,the offside goal both perhaps deflated the lads, but the passion in this team was non existent. We can blame the Manager again, but the team let him down.As has been said these guys will be knocking in fantastic goals at the start of the season as if nothing has happened. I just hope that we are ruthless and start again with youngsters that learn to play with each other as a team, but they have a long way to go to get the passion of support back for their supporters.
Watching some youngsters recently on TV juggling the ball with their feet going past players like Jimmy Greaves used to, where do these players go from fifteen onwards? All these ball skills seem to get lost to the hard men of football with no actual skill to go past defenders.
I suppose now I can just relax and enjoy the final games and forget today. or alternativly get my concertina out and do some playing instead.
Good luck to you Germany it was a good clean ,non diving game and here's to the next time.
