LoveTheBobby 1 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 They mentioned on radio at HT that the FA had squared the band with Platini's lot, they gt to the ground and were told to shove it Doesn't that Helen Chamberlain bloke 'play' in the band too ?

Tottenham Dave 0 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 That'll do! France clearly the more talented side, so a good result for me. Shit ref though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acrossthepond 877 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Passable for a first game in the tournament. Hopefully we won't go for the same defensive outlook against Ukraine and Sweden. I thought Milner was pretty poor, but we're so short of midfield options that I'm not sure who I'd play instead. France lacked a real out and out forward. Benzema didn't really contribute except for a few long-range shots. Debuchy looked really good though, same with Cabaye. I'm a little concerned that Carroll didn't make it on. He's the best "Plan B" that we have and Plan A wasn't working too well today so I would've liked to have seen him. All in all not terrible. We can do better.

Aye I thought that Milner was poor but played one decent ball in. Young was poor, didnt offer any outlet, but that maybe because we were sat waaaay too deep.

Park Life 71 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Good result for us. Important to get something from the opening game and settle everyone down. On another day Hart saves that strike from Nasri (just tickled his fingers saw it late). France are one of the better sides in the tournament and expected to get to the semis so no shame. Would have liked us to push up 10 yards. Good experience for the young lads. Hats off to Hodgson for starting OxO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asprilla 96 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Good result. England seem different to me? Lacking the cunt factor maybe. I agree. Don't think we look particularly good but there was something approaching a team spirit at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 7025 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Aye, Lampard, Rio, Barry and Rooney are normally ever present regardless of their form. Good to see some other lads given a bash. Milner was shite like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 21915 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 we were way better than i thought we'd be but we gave the ball away far too easily - nothing new there. the side was organised and compact, and we restricted france to few chances. easy to see why we were set up to be that cautious given it was the first game and against france. but i'd like to see a bit more adventure in the next games. walcott or defoe should start ahead of milner next game. and i still can't quite work out how we got to the point where henderson is first choice reserve centre mid.

Dr Gloom 21915 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 PS - it's a pretty negative way to set up the side but that's modern football for you. chelsea just won the champions league playing like that. the stats/chances column look appalling but when you reduce the opposition to so few clear cut chances, you have to say it's a plan well executed, albeit not the most exciting or stylish brand of football.
