Rooney as a lone striker (not match fit for 90min IMO)

Barely match fit for 45 mins IMO

Sorry, I don't mean to be a whinger, but I'm also English and I'd love to see us do well, but when you get to my age and you've seen England over-bet as many times as I have, that 7-1 just stands out. The current England team is VERY ordinary IMO. One of the TV pundits yesterday suggested that we have five world class players. Who on earth he was talking about I've no idea.

Well I'd say Lampard, Gerard, Beckham, and Owen are all world class (Beckham is like Ronaldo, even if he isn't as good as he once was, and isn't in perfect shape, he's still world class). I don't know if the 5th is supposed to be Cole, Rooney, or Crouch.
