I'm slightly out on the goals but really its gone exactly as I predicted it.

I've said all along, we've been poor. We limped through an extremely weak group and I said as soon as we meet any decent opposition, we'll be thrashed. And we have, no doubt about it. Been outclassed all the way through.

The problem is the manager. We don't have bad players. Sure they have bad games but 10-11 players don't have 4+ bad games on the trot. It's bad management. Bad line-ups, bad organisation, bad preparation, bad tactics, bad man management, the lot. And when it all goes wrong, Capello has no clue how to fix it. Heskey on for Defoe? Cole on for Milner on the RW? The defence has been a disgrace. The rest of the team are all over the place. Players constantly seeking the Hollywood goal/pass. I'm not going over the problems from the last 3 games again but England keep doing it. And it's all schoolboy stuff.

The problem clearly lies at Capello. I don't care what he has done with other teams. He has done nothing for us and shows no signs of ever doing so. I wished we had gone out at the group stage then he would have been sacked and we could have the complete reboot throughout the team like we should have had after McLaren. Will he get sacked now? Probably not. And so we'll have no chance for Euro '12.
