    fk knows how much, struggling to put in a decent telling cross, even make decent passes at times hardly any creativity, let alone any decent efforts on goal.
    Don't subscribe to the stupid theory that fans think England have a divine right to win games but is a bit of consistent decent quality too much to ask?

    If we're bad how much of a joke are Scotland, because this boring drudgery of an England team beat Slovakia and the Jocks are getting battered by them

    Basic stuff like striking a dead ball. Conor can put it on a sixpence time and time again - Henderson and now Rooney, can't get a corner past the first man.

    I reckon in the last 5 competitive games they've put 1 or 2 decent corners in. Along with about 30 that have failed to beat the first post. Unforgivable that our "elite" players can't produce anything even resembling professional.

    It's absolutely shocking to watch.

    I'm sure that individually they are all reasonably good players, but as a team they are totally hopeless.

    Helpless and hopeless devoid of attacking intent. Without Hart and some average finishing we would have lost or 4 nil quite deservedly and yes you should expect players paid ridiculous amounts of money to do the simplest things correctly.

    Poor corners and pointless throw ins. Doesn't anyone move in the team to offer themselves
