Well now Eriksson you must stop this bullsh*t expermating and start playing your best formation (which is the diamond)
I disagree - we have nobody to play the base of it.

Unfortunately yes that is the case. Though Jol thinks that Carrick can become that type of player, and that man knows his football, after all he's Dutch.

Which is the sick, sick truth. I hope Sven goes, i really do. I was glad we lost because i know he cannot take this team anywhere now.
tbh no good thing can come of this, personally i support sven because it is the lesser of 2 evils, an english manager would be a very backward step, nobody can seem to do this job without people wanting them out, what benefits would an english manager bring ? im also sick of hearing people moan about wanting a manager with passion, ffs keegan and graham taylor had passion and they were absolutely awful, sven has the best record since venables by an absolute mile, 3 competitive defeats isnt a bad return imo. sacking him now would do more harm than good because of lack of any decent replacements and lack of time to get them into the job, im pleased england lost because im just getting sick of international football, in fact football altogether.

Come on sledger, take the spectacles off. Sure Rio went for the offside trap along with the other 3 defenders but your friend Ashley Cole was as much at fault. It was he that "should" have been marking as Carragher tried to point out. None of them stepped up in time.
true i am being a little harsh, but as i have told you on msn i think cole is also overated, not as much as ferdinand but overated none the less, his defending leaves a lot to be desired as although its not dreadful by any means, but as for ferdinand that is a prime example of why i see him as overated, the amount of times i have seen man utd concede goals as a result of incidents similar to that are numerous, but what i can i say, i really have lost intrest in england tbh, when it comes to the world cup i will support them and hope they do well, but up to that point i really cant be arsed to listen to all this moaning and groaning about all this qualifying crap.

No he supports the Aussie cricket team but supports England in football (and I assume other sports?)

You could call him a glory hunter since he supports United but lives in Preston.
could say that about people who support inter and live in australia :cool:

I am also getting pretty fed up with it is just non stup hyped up mediocre rubbish half the time. The premiership is decent enough but the top 3 are too far ahead and most teams are actualy pretty dull and mediocre. The last 2 big international tournaments while have been sort of entetaing because of all the shocks have actualy been pretty poor in terms of matches and their quality and enternainent. The champions league is good although that ghastly liverpool team winning that was anoying. The championship is pretty dull with teams just lacking premership class but without the great lower league style so in conclusion the best league in the world is league 1 :p

I wish people would stop harking back to Taylor and Keegan, Keegan was obviously clueless to start with and they both had a fraction of the raw materials Sven has had to work with - and managed to win sweet FA with. With far less talent Sir Bobby's team had a real chance of winning something, something Sven's team has never looked like doing - they go 1-0 up against Portugal in their last proper competition, absolutely dominating them, then Sven decides England should just defend for the rest of the game and England inevitably get knocked out on the glorified coin tossing competition - That's why he's hopeless. We're not going to win nothing with Sven so if we England are going to win nothing at least have a manager that isn't a classless foreign scumbucket.

But there is no direction in this team, which an English manager can bring. For a start make Gerrard or Terry Captain. Then tell them what the hell they should be doing on the pitch rather than letting them wander about looking like little babies that lost their lollies.

Except that Inter haven't been as successfull as Milan and Juve in the last 16 or so years and besides I also support my own country in what ever support and my local footie team.

But inter do have the greatest striker in the world. Reason enough to support them in my book. :)
