Yeah, Theo seems like a decent bloke. Actually if England have a weak point, I'd say it is Yobbo Terry at the back. He's too slow for international football and will get found out again and again against pace.Kris wrote:Hopefully, Theo Walcott will go from strength to strength after last night. He seems an incredibly down to earth and articulate (for a footballer anyway) character so it shouldn't go to his head.

I'd agree with that. Every international player has to have some technical ability about them. He has none. He's good in the Prem because a lot of football is in the air. Technical players at international level will cut him to bits. Ferdinand is far superior. Carragher had the same problem.
Ledley King should play but i doubt very much he will play for England again due to fitness problems.
It looks like it's finally dawned on England to keep the ball. They were excellent in the first half and even better against ten men. They didn't resort to those ridiculous 50 yard diagonal balls they think they need to play. So maybe Lampard and Terry do have a few brain cells.
It was also a relief to see Walcott given a chance and also Heskey. It just got boring seeing the same old faces turning out every week and not producing. Heskey isn't a world beater but he's effective.

I think Arshavin, Pogrebnyak, Pavluchenko, Zyranov, Anyukov and etc... 7-0 is minimum I have thought, but if we could win only 2-1... It's not good.
