I remember these Hondurans, from the Olympics at SJP. They played (and beat) Spain by virtue of a lot of play acting interspersed with a load of leg breaking challenges.

Less play acting today, but jeez they are a bunch of nasty bast*rds. Sturridge did well to avoid getting sent off for lamping that tw@t who tried to kick the sh1t out of him

Hart's kicking, throwing, and thought processes are looking pretty bad. I can see why Man C dropped him for a bit

Lets hope he gets a grip, because I've always considered him to be a much better keeper than he's showing tonight, and England will need him to be on top of his game next weekend

Alot of thats down to his team-mates, they keep passing the ball too him, and he clearly isn't comfortable with it.

Hart
Johnson
Jagielka
Cahill
Baines
Gerrard
Wilshere
Chamberlain/Sterling (not fussed)
Barkley
Lallana
Sturridge/Rooney (not fussed)

Won't happen, but that would be my XI against Italy

well, one of them is sent off now. But the worrying thing for Eng is surely the 0-0 scoreline?

I think you can get 20-1 on England not scoring at the WC, looks a good bet.

Sturridge has been absolutely awful, not that any of the others have been much better.

I am struggling to think of a worse England performance...NONE of them have done any good.

Barkley has 1 trick...smash it from wherever he is standing...and barring a good strike against City, he can't bloody shoot.
