Stupid not too, since the last time I checked England is not Brazil.

TBH, as an English supporter I didn't really hold this friendly in such high esteem. I wouldn't have been bothered if we drew, won 1-0 or won 9-0! The fact of the matter is that it was an irreleavent game, so I didn't really expect to see 'total football'.

All I wanted to see was change. Anything that is different is a bonus IMO.

The game wasn't brilliant, but it was refreshing to see an alternative style of play. However, like I say, I am not really to sturred because it is only One game.

Also, like Jager says, the fact that the media get involved is silly to do so soon. I would rather Capello goes about his job professionaly, which he seems to do, and the Media leave him alone to get on with it.

I was impressed to see England respond to conceding a goal immediately. The lack of 'hoofing it forward' was a sight for saw Eyes and the patient build up at times was better football and more effiecient. Again, Like I Say, I don't want to get carried away, but I feelthat there were many positives to be taken from a potentially 'New England' (Potentially being the operative word!)

The most sickening thing though is that a weak, nervous and unfamiliar England side comfortably beat a team that is in Euro 2008, while we have to watch it from the sidelines.
