Is it just me, or do England play much better football when Captain Marvel doesn't play? Whenever he plays there is a tendency to overplay the ball down the right for his crosses, bypassing the passing game through the middle (might explain why Scholes hasn't scored for two years). Gerrard is equally good at crossing/corners, and joe cole proved Beckahm is not the only decent freekick taker around. Plus Rooney has more vision in his little finger than Beckham has entirely. We're better off without him - and the players agree. Southgate admitted he didn't go to meet mandela because it was no longer about the England team meeting him, it was about Beckham meeting him

Prediction: 3-1 win tonight with Rooney getting his frst for England

Although in Outer Mongolia, I'm staying in England and have a big interest in English fotball. Beckham is overrated. e.g. On the front page of every newspaper when all what happened was his club accepting an offer for him.

Scholes is merely rubbish. He stands in the middle of the pitch doing nothing. A waste of space that Joe cole Should be filling in.

to look on the positive side, it was a young side, a lot of changes, and we won! But we won't get away with first half performances like that too often.... Personally, I think we missed Beckham...

Beckham is a very good player, he is not a world class central mid fielder, but he is a world class crosser of the ball, and that is why he should play wide. Gerrard and Owen are world class, the England back 5 were heading for the Beazer Homes division.

not quite right, but had lampards goal been allowed (there were three people playing him on when the ball was played, and two people playing him on when he scored) it would have been 3-1. rooney was not quite as good as he was against turkey, but at least we won...just

he may be over rated but he is a very good captain (insparational, even?) and he has an amazing cross...

Yeah, I know a radio station that does weekly updates on his hair style.

I'll be glad when he's gone from Man U and England - what a poser, more interested in flogging his shades and pants than winning a World Cup.
The stupid papers pinned their hopes with him - England can only score from his free kicks!
