And why did both squads stepped on each others' toes like old grannies on dancing evening in country nursery home?!
Get a load of the Welsh fans here in Cardiff. They were ecstatic; just love this video of them. πŸ™‚

Some funny looking players in the England team against Iceland .
Rooney looked as though he had a pair of clown boots on ,Sterling run around like a woman minus the handbag and that powder puff in goal was more concerned about his hair and how much money he would get from his next advert than saving the ball .Hodgson was worried he would be late to chauffair lady penelopy back home while Kane had double vision and thought the goal laid 20 feet to the left . What a bunch of "Thomas the tankers "

There were so many issue all culminating in a disastrous campaign. I don't understand why Vardy was not playing from the very beginning. Get the ball to Jamie Vardy and he will score goals. Rooney needs to sit back deeper or give him a free role like Germany give to Ozil and allow him to roam and create stuff, he is not the same player that he was but he is still pure quality. England had no presence in midfield, Sterling, Kane are lightweights, not someone like Roy Keane or Joey Barton but someone that did what Pirlo used to do for Italy or Michael Ballack used to do for Germany. Finally there were some players who were in the squad based solely on reputation, Sturridge, Hart and Sterling, get rid of them. Next England manager needs to be Scottish if you have any chance of making any progress.

Interesting, why Scottish?
And whom did you have in mind?

Because we (the Scots) have successfully ruled you since James VI and I had me in mind.

Yesterday clash between Italy and Germany was instructive.
I mean Schweinschteigger's missed penalty kick. We all know that sex has bad impact on sportsmen and sportsmwomen. Ana Ivanović his to-be-wife lost form after she got Schweinny in her bed. Now he know that she is also terrific in bed ahd he is happy, since he missed so badly.
Lesson - you can't have both cakes: either god sex or sport success.
Luckily, football is collective sport, so others corrected his mistake.

It was embarrassing to watch coaches Conte and Loew.
The first one has wig, hair transplant and hair extension at the same time.
During previous match - against Spain - it was raining. Conte was afraid of acid rain, which might provoke unpleasant chemical reaction in his hair so he put a baseball cap on. And he also put a rain coat on, since his precious tailored suit could shrink so that he could look like Andy from AC/DC.
When the rain stopped he took both cap and coat off.

Yesterday it was astonishing how Germany could produce pressing on Italy for 75 minutes.
But at the same time they didn't create chances, so they had to endure penalties.

German coach Joachim Loew is nose digger, self-sniffer, hygiene freak, obssesed with diets and has Dr. Oz for lover. But he is a good leader.

Eriksson was a mistake, but had you kept Capello you would have won something so far...

I was being fair; I asked why and who.
Robbie replied with reference to Celtic rule and offered himself.
We go on...

Sven had the highest win rate of all England mangers, but also the best squads. I take you point though.

It's not the manager it's the players that lose .
The international job is pretty much part time and the team more or less picks it self if Capello was still in charge England would have still won "diddly squat" you cant' win with 11 ego's.
The best thing England could do is scrap the team except for maybe two or three and pick honest players from the championship ,players that want to win and are unaffected by vast amounts of money and doing adverts for even more money.
