Re: England vs Montenegro.
I will be attended in an effort to put behind me last Saturdays thrilling encounter and look forward to seeing some long term team planning from that Italian bloke when he plays Kevin Davies as our new 'upfront you say'
player. Us long suffering Walsall fans can only long for this type of planning from our glorious chairman and his cockney sidekick Hutchings who have set out their stall for players at Walsall to stay no longer than the statutory 4 weeks or until their cheque bounces.
Apparently 'freshening up the squad' with a couple of players every few weeks is 'the new black' as they say in fashion circles.
I'm looking forward to the match and hope we thrash the pants off Yugoslavia.

Trademark catchphrase by a judge on Strictly Come Dancing when scoring the dancers a 7 (strangely enough).
Davies cor be any more pointless than the rest.
That handball WAS a penalty.

A total yawnfest.
We're just lacking everywhere. I do think Johnson and Young have been decent bar his crazy dive.

utterly cack, but the ref was a Pommie-basher and the 'Negs kicked lumps out of the England players. That's my take.

Re: England vs Montenegro.
I wouldnt take anything from Montenegro they defended well, and that shot was a cracker.
However we should be beating them, we were flat bar a few spells where we used the pace.
Crouch is shocking, Glen Johnson was pap. Barry was painfully slow and Rooney plays like an overweight oaf these days.
Thought Davies did okay when he came on but nothin special and the two wingers played well tonight. Gerrard also had a good game.

Re: England vs Montenegro.
Rooney is constantly anonymous.
I suddenly had urges to a) watch DVD's of Hutchings's substitutions and b) throttle Townsend for being a clueless idiot.

Re: England vs Montenegro.
So, both Walsall and England have managers who play long ball dire negative football and make terrible substitutions

Re: England vs Montenegro.
Shaun Wright-Phillips may be fast but he can't pass or control a football and he gets muscled off the ball whenever someone so much as breathes on him.
As we're less than 2 months into the season I'd like to know what their excuse is cos they can't be tired.
Useless nob jockeys.

Perhaps we should have handed out flares to their fans before the game.

Re: England vs Montenegro.
Good lord, imagine if John Terry or Frank Lampard played as bad as G Johnson, Barry, SWP, Young, Rooney and Davies did tonight?
We would be on page 99 of the thread by now.
Cause my god, G Johnson, Barry, SWP, Young, Rooney and Davies are probably 6 of 7 of the worst players ever to pull on an England shirt!
The other - Heskey.
Absolutely shocking performance.
And people think this joke in charge will win England any silverware?
:roll:

Re: England vs Montenegro.
Agreed with Andy Townsend that must be a first the ,tempo of the game suited the visitors we were far to cautious .
Rooney and Crouch were very disappointing upfront .
As for Capello should have sacked after the world cup end off.

Re: England vs Montenegro.
Glen Johnson is not international class, he needs dropping. Midfield played far too deep. Crouch does not bring anything to this side. Rooney is a shadow of his performances a year ago.
The fact that Crouch and Rooney can be fairly assured of their places is a stark warning of our lack of attacking options these days. Grim.

Re: England vs Montenegro.
Rooney is cack.
As is SWP.
As is Barry.
As is that bar stool Glen Johnson who offers more in attack than defence.
Capello hasnt got the passion and he's just sitting on his contract until after the tournement.
But, I realised years ago that we can beat most mediocre sides comfortably, but when it comes to playing real class we're outplayed everywhere.. So in a way hopefully this result will make more of the dreamers wake up. I hate the fact that when we qualify we expect to win it.. :|
Montenegro arent a bad side and have had a good start and when they come and play for a 0-0 it makes it very difficult, that said.. I expected a comfortable 3-0 win.

And, therein lies part of the problem. They have now played 4, won 3, drawn 1, scored 3 and conceded 0. Why on earth did you think we woud win 3 - 0, when all they were going to do was "park the bus"?

England should win every game. Everyone knows that. :roll:
I see no credit for Montenegro in the papers today. Drivel, they knew how one dimensional we were and defended it with ease, and could of grabbed it late on.

SWP's problem is that his legs have been fitted back to front from the knee and he is useless.
Dreadfully poor tactics, poor players, no change from the world cup but then again I never have any great expectation from an England team containing very ordinary players. :(

Re: England vs Montenegro.
Har, Culbert.
I'm not going to blame Fabio. I'm going to keep blaming the players.
Johnson may as well start as a right winger. He's about as useful in defence as I am in a netball skirt. Barry was one-dimensional, if we had Bent fit, I reckon Rooney would've been off.
I said 3-1 - I'll defend it by saying that I thought the likes of Lennon and Bent would play.
Fabio in. Because not even the last English league title winner can get the best out of this lot.
