Nay Blackadder! Famous last words.. "Beating Murphy though is a different challenge. Murphy has more talent than almost any bowler since the days of Mick Barry. There are no certainties in sport, but it is unlikely that McGuigan can pull this one off."
OK but it's not like we put every player behind the ball and played for 0-0. Scored 1, Milner should have scored, quite a few forays forward. France dominated for 20 minutes in the first half and 5-10 minutes at the end but apart from that it was pretty even.
France started with 4, bought on 1 or 2 more. There were far more Premier League players than any other league at the last world cup and I expect it will be the same at Euro 2012. Make of that what you will.
