This is very late, anyhow, I just wanna make sure this material be apart of my life journal. 2 days before the game, Astro was talking about this particular game so much, and the commentators especially Merson & McMahon was talking about the talents and poor decision by Macca that drove the team into such a lousy performance ever in the English football history.
I am not an English fan, I would prefer to cheer for the Germans as they have the quality of a champion. To me there are 3 factors that differentiate English team to the like of Germans or the Italians.
1)Passionate football, the fighting spirit that the Italians and the Germans have are something uncomparable in Europe. English have only 40% of what these 2 teams have. The British Bulldogs character are no longer with the players. They cracked and demotivated under pressure. The Germans and the Italians were conquerer, they play with confident against any team on the planet. Passionate football underline superb self confident and excellent fighting spirit.
2)Goalkeeper, this is the department that was not obvious until they lost like a school children to Croatia. Macca was dumb enough not to do something about this, just do away with what they
have. He could have hired Italian or German goalkeeping coach to scout and develop talents. As long as they dont have the solution to this, the nearest they can get to the trophy perhaps, the last 8!
3)Organize, they are badly not organize. Look at the second goal. Italians & Germans are so good at this! They need to build up the game, solidly, no loop holes, fast and sharp in creating opportunity, and agile in defending and attacking.
To sum it up, the coach is terribly sub standard. If he had recognized these factors, he must could have done something about this as they have been around since the 80s.
