autolycus... as for there being plenty of them everywhere... that struck me from the first touch. No matter what was on the go they were voraciously attacking. They "stayed as close to the ball as possible" even if it was just one man alone forcing England to play quickly, even charging the goal when there was no chance of doing anything but "hurrying up" the keeper.

I saw that in Rooney who was out of position many times trying to force play and turnovers but not so much from ALL of the others. Odd to me. But I am a Canuck so I don't know much about football.
