Its in the hands of the players when the game is on and our players all had a different game plan.

We have been beaten by a better team with better players

Because the buck stops with him, he is paid to pick the best team, motivate them, select the right tactics and make sure they all know their jobs and the game plan, for that he is paid an absolute fortune and from where I am sitting it looks like he took it so seriously he didn't even both to learn the language properly.

But if at the end of the day players go out on that pitch with there own agenda then what can the manager do. I have seen one player on that pitch today who earns 100.000 a week if i am right with the figure play crap. Its not just the manager every one of those players needs to look at them selves and decide why they did not give there best performance.

The fallout begins from today and i do not think the manager is the only one to blame. Maybe we need to rethink the whole England team from the ground up

Also why does football not have the technology to help with some of the decisions like they now have in rugby

Look on the bright side, we might win in 4 years time..

I will tell you why l think the problem lays with Capello, he can't speak proper English, he is useless, he has picked a team, that tis supposed to be the best there is, absolutely cobblers, Rooney did not score one goal, he was totally rubbish, and yet he takes off Defoe and puts on another crap player in Heskey.

The FA shouls hold the head in shame, they should be saying to fans, we will pay for your fare home, and make the players pay it, disgraceful performance.

Please Arthur,
The problem Arthur is these `superstars` are being paid too much to do a job and not doing it.!

The next England match in autumn for the Euro 2012 - 3 Sept. and we need to be sorted by then otherwise we will miss it like last time.

27-06-2010, 17:48

listening to capello after the match he actually thought that England played well

i can't understand why he played players out of their normal positions and why for the love of god didn't our top goal scorer ,Crouch get a look in

Shameful performance, They totally let England down..........

The Germans played really basically and beat us, what does that say about our team?

We've had the technology for years, we had it today via the camera showing the ball go way over the goal line, but the people in charge decide to ignore it. Pathetic.

Gerard was greedy, Rooney shouldn't have even been on the pitch, judging by his performance in every one of the games, I'd say he had an injury. Not once today, did he take shot at the goal when the chance was there, he decided to pass it on, even the corner that he took, he played short to avoid more damage to his foot. imho.

No excuses, it was embarrassing to watch. Sunday league football at its utter worse!

Gary L · 27-06-2010, 18:21

Germany deserved to win that game (obviously)
they had full control when they had the ball. they were skillful the way they played it all the time.

England couldn't keep it for more than a few seconds. they showed no skill in control of the ball. you always guaranteed it would just get booted somewhere hoping it lands at the feet of the same team.

We were crap. and always will be.
nevermind. we can always keep going on about 19 bloody 66.

I think it proves that we are third rate on the world stage, the quarter finals is usually our limit and we didn't even make that this time.

The problem is we think we are better than we actually are, having said that, we could have done a better job than we did today on and off the pitch. Every World Cup is the same, we get knocked out and the mud slinging starts.

Too right. there's non proffesional players out there that could play better for England.

everytime we play, we just look lazy. as if it's just a formality to be there on the pitch.

Lord Nikon · 27-06-2010, 18:33

it was shameful, terrible, absolutely pathetic.

Germany could have scored MANY more goals than they did.

Russ · 27-06-2010, 18:34

Manager after manager, your team consistently fails on the big stage. Let's face it, apart from that minor blip back in 66 England have never looked like World champions. I don't care if you don't like to hear it from a Welshman, it's true. Domestically your team may be strong but unless there's a home nation tournament it won't amount to anything. Oh don't worry you can get your own back in the qualifies for Euro 12 but going on the last few performances I reckon we could be in with a shout

In all honesty I mean this - better luck next time. If anyone can bring the WC back to the UK it's England.
