jmr Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 We are awful, I honestly think we'll struggle to get out of the group. Hodgson and his insistence on 442 with no plan and no style, trying to fluke goals whilst being wide open to good attacking sides is going to kill us.

dudester Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 Think this Belgian team would be very good if they had a striker to go with the nice approach work. Maybe if Lukaku progresses. England have been pretty much terrible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, what do people expect? We are trying to set up as a well organised team who can play on the break, it's the only chance we have of getting out if the group in the Euros. The players are doing their jobs. We a slightly better than Ireland ffs not like we are Spain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we going to rely on defensive mistakes to score our goals in the tournament? This 442 doesn't work with this set of players. We've looked solid, if not great. We're underperforming in centre midfield but other than that we've been marginally the better side against a very good team. Try getting behind the team.
