Wholeheartedly disagree!! I thought in all three games we played some good stuff, particularly the first 45 against Russia and the second 45 against Wales. Yesterday we couldn't get past 9 defenders and a goalkeeper, they showed no intent to attack and just sat deep to stop the pace of Vardy and Sturridge from getting behind. The thing is from now on teams cannot do that, its now knockout and teams will have to attack rather than park the bus, so our pace should be a much better weapon particularly on the break. Of course that will also expose our defence as well and while they have looked solid so far we really haven't seen them tested much by any of the teams we played.
