Ian Royal
Ginger Ninjas Gary CahiLOLOL more at fault for the first, Smalling went with the runner, CahiLOLOL did nothing.

Great header by Huntelaar for the second

Smalling should have allowed Cahill to pick up the runner


watch it back again. cahill only had his eyes on one man and it was the wrong man.

Seriously why do you even bother humouring him. England's entire back 4 were there for the second goal, not CM's job to pick up CF.

He either knows that and is on a wind up, or has even less football knowledge than most home counties based Utd fans.

Stalling and Cahill both at fault for first. blame Cahill more as He was pulled across Smalling was following KJH run.

I'm sorry but Welbeck or Sturridge shouldn't be anywhere near the England team.

I'd rather Crouch and Defoe

There's nothing a centre back can do when at the last minute Parker decides he doesn't want to follow the deep run from Huntelaar!

You just don't have time to cover.

I'm with Ian here, it's obvious we're zonal marking yet Smalling got dragged out allowing the space for Robben. Cahills job was to stop Robben entering his space, if Smalling didn't get drawn out he would have blocked the shot

Well, whichever, it was definitely a central defensive mix up.

Not impressed by Milner since he's come on either. But I like the look of the defensive shape with Parker, and most of the defenders, errors included. There's a lot to build on here. We'll get some duff results along the way, but I honestly think this team and style is a step (mostly)in the right direction.

Persist with it, with a few tweaks here and there and it'll pay off.

Youngs been shit.

But Parker should have done better for both goals. His job to pick up deep runs.

Victor Meldrew Where were you Parker?
I thought he was meant to shield the back 4.
Poor show.

Take your balls back out of your purse. Your boy's off the pitch and it's only a one off appointment anyway.

I'm glad Clive cleared up that a white bloke isn't related to a black bloke with the same name.

I wonder if Ashley and Luke Young are related.

Shock horror in finerain calling us mediocre before hand....yet everyone claimed I was talking nonsense as usual. When will you guys learn that England are just utter gash and stop making excuses? You are all blaming individuals for errors but the simple fact of the matter is none of them are any good in the first place. Holland have 3/4 match winners....even drik kuyt is more dangerous than anything we've got and that says it all. Fully expected result.
