England's World Cup let down

[Reece]

I have seen literally three journalists question Hodgson - Ashton (above), Daniel Taylor and Miguel Delaney. All the others - that I've read, at least - think he is not to blame. It's unbelievable.

I thought Barrett had been pretty scathing? Unless you mean in formal articles rather than just via Twitter?

[chadrtc]

Lets see what happens when they fail again on Tuesday night. Lose all 3 games and I'm sure a postmortem will begin in earnest.

It's ridiculous how handsomely rewarded these people are for being **** at their jobs. Anyone could manage the England team and not do any worse than Hodgson. £3.5m per year for being a complete duffer. The FA are a bunch of clueless ******s too. Time for an overhaul, get rid of the freeloaders and bring in people who actually know something about football.

[RichC]

Awful isn't it, I mean the amount of money involved these days in football is utterly crazy and for the sort of money Hodgson is on you'd at the very least expect him to be vaguely competent at his job instead we've a manager that's entirely inept and is probably best known for using words such as Utopian and famous whilst still not winning games.

Oh and of course -

Aye I meant those who'd written articles on it. Barrett is a red anyway so in a sense doesn't count.

lampard captain on Tuesday night, Looking to the future Roy

[McDermotX]

Knows what he's doing that Roy fella.......at this rate, only a 6-0 thumping from Costa Rica might wake up the critics.

[Pablo]

Costa Mother****ing Rica

[PTP]

i think england will beat costa rica - purely because they are comfortably through so will want to rest key players

[McDermotX]

'To pick up 3pts from such an auspicious group, would be considered satisfactory, dare I say a utopian-level achievement, what with all the young players I, for one, had the foresight to bwing along to Brazil' - Roy Hodgson, speaking after landing back in England just as everyone's starting to get going in the World Cup.*









*not really, but probably.

[Alex]

Henderson for Lampard and that midfield is passable.

[Liverpool]

If it was the England captains last game, he'd be playing. Woy playing mind games.

[Gibbo]

I have no idea why he's giving Foster games over Forster, much better keeper
