Slovenia -v- England

Tbf though, I think it's as much to do with a lack of decent options (especially down the left - how long have we been saying that ffs?) as it is just picking people on reputation.

 

Since Chris Waddle?

Paddys getting riled because we're just better at them at everything other than the Eurovision.

 

possibly some mild resentment alright.

He was ok during Euro '96, but apart from that he was pretty much dreadful for England.

Aye, I thought he had an excellent tournament but other than that he was canny shit for England.

I thought England played a Christmas tree formation without wingers in 96?

They played a 3-5-2 mostly iirc. With McManaman in a free role popping up on both wings as well as through the middle.

Venables experimented with the Christmas Tree in some friendlies (seem to remember Le Tiss playing in one game in the system).
