Looks like if this guy is playing then Englands midfield are going to have to do a lot of running. This from the NYT "In a victory at Liverpool in October that most likely saved his manager’s job, for example, Leeds not only ran more than any team had in any Premier League game this season, but Aaronson ran more than anyone else. He registered 8.2 miles, more than any player has run in any league game this year." 8.2 miles more! Wow. Wonder what his total was. Hardly seems possible? At 5 min pace all the games that would only be 18 miles or so.
I remember Sir Alex Ferguson saying when the first started monitoring distance covered in a game he was amazed to see that David May consistently ran the most, something he had never noticed as he was following the ball not the players.
I've had this date circled on my calendar since the moment the fixtures were announced. It's always fun to play the mother country (it's even better to get a result). Have fun today (this evening) Englanders!
Need to win this game, otherwise we could end up embarrassed by them & Wales, it could be Iceland all over again.
don't be daft it's going to be 4-1 england will run riot against the yanks and wales beat ecudor in r016 and then beat who ever in qf england v brasil final
