Have to agree with this. Don't want to be down on the lad at all but he was not.confident and that meant the defence wasn't eithwr. Obviously needs to be given a proper chance et. Can't believe that Green got away with it in the first half - just - so decided to.do it again! He'd have been better off letting O'Grady ( what a handful he was!) Score and stay on the pitch but he has a fraction of a second to make a call like that. I was concerned about the high level of expectation today but it really is not a disaster. It just feels like one!
Another Rob Green red card moment playing for England (actually not against Japan, but in a 1-0 defeat to Ukraine 10/10/09)
Swordsie why have you directed a comment t me? I haven't posted on this thread until now as I didn't see the game. ..In fact I have only just seen the lowlights on channel 5 + 1.... What I will say is that maybe this is a wake up call that we needed. ...
Don't recall trying to convince you of anything. ....you don't enjoy....fine tthat's your perogative as a consumer. Personally although the standard of football isn't top notch it's more competitive than the premier league will ever be. ....
Either way, one can only assume our defence is still a major issue. Think it's going to be a season of needing to score plenty cause there'll be goals at either end. Anyway, a very disappointing effort it seems ............... that is how it comes across from someone who didn't see the game. Early reports here on the board indicated as such. On a positive note - Chelsea lost again and Stoke are stone motherless last, not that I'm one to hold grudges or anything.
Nice to know you bookmark posts for future reference. .. you still don't like the league...not my concern. .....i still think there are some decent sides as I said in that post you bookmarked.
