Well 3 more wins and we're champions. Very Happy

We certainly look very solid at the back but my only problem is our right hand side, Milner is our weak link in the midfield IMO, Walcott has to start on sunday.

Anyway regarding ''that goal'' what the fuck is that assistant doing stood next to the goal? Are they allowed to give decisions because I have yet to see any of them give a sodding thing, even in europe last season when they got introduced.

I honestly don't think they've been "solid" in the slightest. More by luck than judgement really.

They gave up 16 shots last night and almost 60% of the possession against Ukraine, don't forget the goal that was conceded but ruled out.

They gave up 15 shots ON TARGET against France, and mustered a single shot themselves, again conceding 60% of the possession.

Against sweden they had more of the game but conceded two of the softest goals in the tournament and for 10-15 minutes afterwards looked all at sea.

You were right LH, Sepp Blater has announced this morning on twitter than GLT is a "necessity" now...

(seriously)

If it had happened to Germany instead of us, in the World Cup then you can bet GLT would already be part and parcel of the modern game by now.

The defence has been pretty solid. For all Ukraine's posession last night they didn't get behind the English defence very often - even the "goal" they scored was offside so the defence did their job.

Well it looks like most of agree that Milner is a weak link. Now if the majority of fans can see this why does the managment not see it.

Over the three games we have been beaten in possession, shots on goal, general midfield play. All by teams ranked lower than us. Now common sense tells you it's just a matter of time before somebody puts us to the sword. No complaints if this the best we've got then so be it.

We have a good keeper, good defence, and good defensive midfielders in Gerrard and Parker. We should have Walcott & Young on the wings and Rooney & Defoe upfront.....pace scares any opposition, even Italy.

Natasha ....agree with you on Defoe..... most underated English forward IMO.

Why that lad can't get a game for Spurs or anybody else is beyond me.

I'd play Carrol & Defoe upfront with Rooney instead of Young.

Sepp Blatter eyes goal-line technology after England win

Obviously a good thing but he doesn't half hate England does he
