Hahaha, people on here are so fickle man. Perfect result. Did anyone mention 66? Nice little goal scored In that minute, eh?

All In all, England lack players that can be deemed as a playmaker. Everybody says about the England players being great in the Premier League then terrible at international tournaments. This is due to England players being complimented by their foreign teammates at club level. Look at Manchester United, they're a counter-attacking side who get the ball wide and work it in. Look at the wingers, Valencia and Nani. Both foreign with a bit of flair who can take on the full back. The English players are grafters in a certain sense at club level, they work really hard but without the foreign technical players to create chances they're worthless. All international teams at the top level have at least one player who can pull the strings from the midfield or behind the strikers. England have no one who can deliver a killer ball.

Another thing that makes it hard for Capello is the lack of pace in the side. Any English player with real pace has a lack of technique. Lennon, Walcott, SWP, they can all run but when it comes to delivering a cross, you're lucky to get one out of ten in a good position to be attacked. There is also an over-reliance on one player, i.e. Rooney. Without him playing well there is no attacking threat. Until England get some quick players with a bit of technical skill and a playmaker they will never make it to the latter stages of a major international competition.

We have plenty of players in the same mould as Nani/ Valencia who are just as good if not better. Arguably the most competetive area within the squad.
