lol, and yet many of those same players are the best players on their clubs in the season. England's problem is psychological, tactical and adjusting to the international game, which is a large bit LESS physical and MORE pussy.

England have the parts but they have yet to find a manager who can assemble them all together for all the world to see how brilliant they can be. But I honestly don't know if I"ll ever see that result.

When they do have it all together, like in 90, 96, 2002, etc, something stupid happens like a blown call or they lose on penalties.

Point is...Beckham was Sven's poster boy. Sven is gone. Time for a change. Beckham can always be brought back in to save the day once again if things go ill for McClaren next month.
