Re: England our england!

Oh well I am a big Barcelona fan but here I have to be a manu fan because I was born there and also a Liverpool fan because of Stevie G.

Re: England our england!

England will never be great again as an international force,unless they can replicate a similar squad to the mighty 1966 Championship side,that cant happen,why? because the 1966 squad was made up of Englishmen,not by a group of money hungry greedy non English born International players!

If you field a team of foreigners and call them "England" then you are going to lose every time,has as been proven,a team named England should be made up of Englishmen,then you get English pride,a national team needs to be supported by English fans,a national team made up of "blow ins" is not an English team,but a rabble of money hungry greedy players,if they were not born and bred in England then they should not be named in a national squad.

Re: England our england!

I think the problem lies more in the fact that there are too many foreign players in the the English Premier League leaving little opportunity for young English players to learn to play at international level. We should do what Spain did, when their abilities were affected in the same way in the World Cup, and cap the number of foreign players a team can have.

Re: England our england!

Oh yes the days of Tom Finney are well missed, and yes they are mostley foreigners the players. The upstairs lot as I call them have ruined the game, oh how I hate this standing about waiting for the long ball kick,get some proper playing done lads, a nice bit of tackling again.
