i think the England team is rather consistent..... I defy anyone to back that statement up with pure fact. Unless you mean they are consistently inconsistent.

If I can sum up then.....sorry, had to go to the cinema with the kids to watch Ratatouille..... We're all totally frustrated by England at the moment. We want them to do well and achieve the success that's been promised by the hugely talented squad but something isn't right. Is it the management? Is it the players? Mentions of a lack of passion should be a cause for concern because it's my guess that any one of us, if put in the position of being good enough to be selected to play for England ( yeah I know but bear with me) would die for the shirt, would die for the team and would give our last breath to win. I don't see that in the crop of players out there at the moment. This lack of desire is compounded, in my view, by a management team that is out of its depth and tactically naiive. We want something to change but nothing will if we qualify. This debate has been thoroughly interesting, mainly because it's one of the few times I've actually engaged in a purely football based discussion. At least with our national team being so bloody inconsistent, we've all got something to say. ;D i thought Ratatouille was poor! *bang goes GFJ's footie chat* ;D
