Regaring the England performace during this tournament,and previous tournaments, its gonna carry on being like this unless the system is changed at grass roots level, you watch every other team and they are so confortable in passing the ball, they take players on and if a ball is lost they go after it , This is taught at a very early age in most countrys, not in this counrty though and its sad, Ive been around kids and youth football for years , and alls you hear is get rid . get rid, you have got mums and dads screaming on the line for Jimmy to hit the other kid, you have one dad arguing on the pitch with refs and lines men, the kids are terrified of upsetting the parents , Kids in this country should be encouraged to play football with flair , they should be tought the basics . passing .dribbling, and not be afraid to do it ,they should be encouraged to express themselves in a game , doest matter if it doset come off or they loose, And until this is put into practice and encouraged at grass roots level , English football as it stands will never progress,
HE WHO BETRAYS WILL ALWAYS WALK ALONE
