I am blaming him....
for picking fucking Heskey. He's a prick.
I don't blame Green for England not winning, the outfield players in my opinion were mostly ineffective. It's odd, I appear to have watched a totally different game to the commentators and the ITV pundits.
EDIT: having said that, it was really quite a bad mistake to make, but at least he's made it in the first game and not in a quarter final, say.

they passed it around nicely a bit
but nobody wanted to score - pass pass pass - er ineffectually loft it wide?

*edit*
as a former goalkeeper myself - I'd have jumped on the bastard ball ad smothered it just to make sure - not attempt some text book cricket fielding

not being told you're playing until an hour before
isn't enough time to get mentally ready for a world cup game.

They think by passing it around the back they're playing like Brazil
But when Brazil do it you can see it's with a purpose, to unlock the defence.
When England do it it's because they can't think of anything else to do.

the Aussies had a good pass around last night - but had no one up front really

It's bizarre
everyone seems to be praising Heskey because he set up gerrard's goal.
We'll just forget his ineptitude cost us the match as well, cos it's easier to blame a horrible mistake, Rather than consistent ineptness

Yeah, instead of focusing on the negative of the keeper for letting one in,
we should focus on the positive of that upright bit of pipe keeping one out.

not all that good
he VERY nearly got beaten at his near post. I thought his position was poor and he just redeemed it.
He's a nice bloke, probably the only player in the starting XI who isn't a total tool, but that was a pisspoor display.
Prodge, your right about the defence being shite, but you could equally apply that to most of the rest of them...Lampard, tick; SWP, tick; Milner, why did he even start; Capello, poor decisions re King and Milner; etc etc
