I just feel none of them are honest about the performances of fellow professionals, or they are just blind to their faults. Regarding the England game, I honestly thought I was watching a different game to the pundits. I was astonished at the praise being given to some of the players. In particular: Henderson- never turns or runs with ball, passes it backwards for about three yards but has mastered the art of aimless pointing; Maguire: a carthorse; Lingard: couldn’t hit a cow’s arse with a banjo; Young: had now regressed from one trick pony to no trick pony; Sterling: why?
These are, of course, my personal views and probably slightly unfair...but only slightly. I also wish England’s defenders would realise that, unlike their Spanish, German, French or Italian counterparts, they don’t have any noticeable skills when it comes to passing, control, running with the ball or creativity so don’t try it,lads, just do what you’re good at and hoof it.
As someone who actually doesn’t really care how the national team performs, I seem to have gone on a bit of a rant, I’m sorry about that.
