Yeah their game perked up a bit after Rooney's second goal but England still looked jumpy. A good scoreline which certainly did not reflect the performance but of course as someone has already said, a win is a win....

Quite agree with you mate, the result was great - but it flattered us, we did not play as a team, at least not until we were 2-0 up, and against 10 men - then we started passing and playing as we had against france..
That said - If we play as well as we did against grance against any other team , we can win..
Personally, I think we could do really well in the tournament, as long as we can play as a team for the important games.
Look at the Rugby world cup - we were cr4p in the league phase- but got through - then we came alive in those all important matches..
