The craziest thing for me was that some fans on some call in radio show actually complained that England passed the ball backwards at times!

That was one of the positives from the game! Not every attack had to end with a hopeless ball into the box. If you pass your way down the wing etc and see there isn't really a chance of creating something, turn around, keep the ball and wait for the next chance!

I know traditionally English fans have always seen football as simple entertainment after a hard week at work. However a lot of England needs to learn that you can't play like that and expect to be competitive. When Liverpool dominated Europe and England a lot of their games were "boring" because passing the ball a lot and keeping posession has always seemed boring even though any serious footballer knows that that is the key to winning anything in football and it looks very good on the eye.

Anyway, was a good start but most England managers have a good start, still a lot more improvement left
