legov Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Apparently he didn't want to be included in the standby squad, which is quite reminiscent of the Carrick and Foster situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Rob Green almost cost England with a really poor starting position for that corner. Ash looking really lively Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Yeah, it could have been his international career if that had gone in considering previous blunders. Thought there should have been a man on the near post though. England looked good in the first half, but werent really tested. Norway look very poor.

Stevo985 Posted May 26, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted May 26, 2012 Young and Carrol have looked surprisingly good together. I was thinking it should be Milner playing in the middle and Young wide but it's worked ok. England clearly the better team. But, it's only Norway.

DeepDish Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Only seen the second half, but I think Norway has been the better team in this half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudevillaisnice Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Both Henderson and Kelly should not be playing for England senior team.. Roy is clearly doing Liverpool a favour here. Carroll to be fair had an OK game. Milner needs to move from Man City if he doesn't get games (apparently he has only played 1 minute in the past 7-8 weeks) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should try to get him on loan for a season. Him and Ireland would do very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jezza Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 I genuinely think that Barry's injury will deprive England of a crucial player for the tournament - he's the one player of "continental quality" who makes the side "play". Not sure if I have explained that correctly........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 I thought the first half was encouraging how we kept the ball, at least until Gerrard got it as he then tried Hollywood pass after Hollywood pass and failed more often than not. Lampard would be better in this system I think. Second half was a farce as usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonLax Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Gerrard has had a woeful season and is not in the side on form, just on reputation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted May 27, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted May 27, 2012 Watching the build up to last nights match I loved how obvious it was that Gerrard does not enjoy Roy's presence. He seemed absolutely loathe to say a single good thing about him, and ever answer he gave you could tell he was having to think about first and gave some rather faint praise. Such a complete tosser.

Stevo985 Posted May 27, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted May 27, 2012 I actually thought he answered the questions quite well. No bullshit. I was pleasantly surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
