I have never understood how we have some of the best team players in the world, but when they get together as a country team they are RUBBISH!!!

I know what you mean I tell myself I don't care but I would love to see England just play well.Though to be honest I am not that upset as I would have been if it had been cricket.
I guess being a Gooner has made me feel more removed from the England football teamSue.

Re: why do we bother?
As I have said in another thread England have not had a great TEAM since the sixties and early seventies. Sure, we've had, and still do have, outstanding individual players, but to win matches consistently you need 11 players giving their all for each other. Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to happen too often.

Oh well, here we go..Tribes and tribulations of the national team!
It's always easy to sit and criticize but the facts are clear:
1. We have way more foreign players in the EPL which makes it hard for local youngsters to get any experience at top level because teams like Chelsea, Man U, Arsenale etc. are always bringing in foreign players
2. In bred inside every English player the steeped feelings of being thouroghly ganged up upon by the ref, fans, media and anyone else for that matter! That spirit of them vs us makes our players play like stiff gingerbread men!
Could go on but that would suffice for now.
What a load of rubbish!! Can't even beat the one team that has lost all the friendlies : Algeria!
Maybe we should chuck Terry & his wobbly mates into the lion den in SA

Too much investment by clubs in overseas players & not enough in home grown talent!
