Is Steve McClaren really just Sven in a disguise?
They both sit on the bench, totally emotionless like a naughty little schoolboy!

FFS YOU ARE THE MANAGER OF YOUR NATIONAL TEAM!! SHOW A BIT OF FUCKING PASSION!!

never watched the game but looking at the team sheet, surely there was a distinct lack of width

I liked the triple substitution:

1 x Spurs sub
1x Chelsea sub
1x Man Utd sub

That'll make an impact

No... because they haven't been a country for that long

12 years undefeated in that stadium I believe was the stat! But bear in mind they haven't had many decent teams there, like ever due to security concerns!

No, they starting playing as Croatia in 1990 but they were still a part of Yugoslavia then The union split was only agreed in 94 at the end of the war!

12 years in that stadium as I said

But as I also said, they were playing as Croatia whilst still part of Yugoslavia so I could not say how long they are undefeated at home!

I hate slating my country, and against Macedonia is wasn't actually too annoyed at us getting a point, but tonight England were frankly awful.

I refuse to blame the formation, 11 "world class players" should be able to play in any formation and still play better than that.

I think what annoyed me most was it wasn't even difficult things that were going wrong... 5 yard passes, not accurate, and when they were they were being miscontrolled. It's easy stuff. They're just no good at the moment.

1 shot on target all game, and that was 20 seconds into injury time from 25 yards.

There was no passion, no enthusiasm, no creativity. Wright-Phillips should have been on before the second goal went in, he's the only person on Saturday who caused Macedonia any trouble.

All round an awful performance by a team that looked like they couldn't be arsed with it.

just watched the highlights and England loked poor...I said at the beginning i thought Mclaren was the wrong choice, not enough experience, not old enough. not got the tactical know how...

I firmailly believe a internationel mananger should have done something in the league game.....and be experienced to a certain level.

early doors though..

ps


Bring back Beckham, you miss him on the pitch.

gutted Martin O'Neill never got by the interview, how you coul choose McLaren over him is beyond me other than the fact hes not English.

I'm glad anyway i'd have been devastated

It would be nice to see England do well but the fact we got beat tonight hasnt arsed me one bit...

I dont rate McClaren as a manager never have even from his Middlesbrough days...

There are undroppable players in the team...fat frank....

The tactics were all wrong...

They played shite...

Only good thing to come from this game was SG wasnt playing and got some rest...Liverpool FC is all that matters to me
