Cappello demonstrates baffling and extremely poor formation and tactical nous.
1. Completely fresh and untested line up? Check
2. Heskey starting when he scores and spends most of his time offside or on the floor? Check
3. Bringing off Milner and putting a poor RW on in LW instead of someone like Joe Cole? Check.
4. Routing everything through the middle and left when Lennon is our most dangerous player for assists? Check.
We were poor in preparation (even our qualification flattered us) and poor today. If we do make it through the group stages we won't go much further. Any half decent team like Spain or Holland would have torn us apart.
What a waste of time and emotion.

kind of agree with you punky other then point 1 as the formation was the same for the last couple of years
