    They aren't for watching, they are for coaches to try things out. Seems to be going pretty well on that front according to the radio. Although they have had to swallow their pride as they were earlier saying it was a complete waste of time to play 4-3-3.

    In my opinion we have to use friendlies to try out new formations and tactics. We can play a solid 4-4-2 any time we want and we pretty much know our 11 best players for that formation. The only way to learn what changes could be used in tournament to change things is to experiment in friendlies. It is a bit insane to do so away in important fixtures. Not that McLaren would be dumb enough to do that ........ doh!

        Lampard dallied on the ball in midfield then gave it away trying a killer pass when, leading with 4 minutes to go, a simple pass retaining possession would have been a much better option. Holland attack, Ferdinand concedes the throw-in then Robinson makes another appalling decision (even worse than his ill-advised dash from his line in the first half) and Holland equalise.

        Are Lampard and Robinson really good enough?

        Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.



        May the Lord bless this post.

            I must admit I did fall asleep for the first 15 minutes of the second half.

                  Just wait for Carra's last minute winner for England. It's fantastic.

                  Oh, sorry.

                    Worst game I've seen in ages.

                    I vow never to watch an England friendly again.

                      Only hightlight of the game was the performance of Micah Richards, that lad looks fcuking class, brilliant 1 on 1.
                      I want him at Anfield but it won't happen, isn't such a pity a Club like ours can't go for the best British/Mostly English talent about?
                      Soooo damn frustrating.
