World Cup 2014

Gerrard needs to refine his game a little and he can't play so many games so quickly, but don't forget his performancs in the world cup .

Surely you mean his 2 performances?

[BaaBaa.]

I actually meant the Euros.

I personally wish he'd hang up his international boots but can understand it now he's Captain.

[BaaBaa.]

Terrys retired, I'm gutted .

So's Roy and most in the game. Telegraph even did a who can replace him thing. Best bet is probably Cahill.

Ironically, he's received pretty good feedback it seems to me. England manager, chatting on the tube in a friendly manner. Heard on the beeb's 5 live there was an ex-NOW journalist on the train, who nobbed him. Shame really.

Mustn't upset the tetchy senior Ferdinand who simply shouldn't be selected based on current form.

Must agree there. You saw how he was simply 'outrun' during last weekends activities at Old Trafford. He is nowhere near good enough anymore. Anyone with a bit of speed just runs past him.

I`m impressed that Roy was on the underground not being chauffeured around like some of his prima-donna predecessors.

Yeah, he's a real top guy.

Yeah, he's a real top guy.

Increasingly, bar amongst Liverpool fans, that is how he is increasingly perceived. Ok, knobs like Grant Holt, the deadly Norwich striker, might not agree, but the way Hodgson is going about his business is quite refreshing, even if talking out of turn on the tube!

[BaaBaa.]

I thought he was a nice guy until he managed something I'm arsed about.

He's actually pretty snide.

Well,Uncle Roys midas touch continues as England overcome San Marino 5-0 with the added bonus of Ukraine being held to a draw by Moldova !

But what an abysmal way to do it. Absolutely zero imagination - the same move, short passes through the middle of the field until they hit a brick wall. How many times were the wide men just stood there as spectators. The limited successes they had all came from wide moves.

And what about handing the captain's armband to Hart? The guy was alone in his own end of the pitch for about 99% of the match. How could he influence things as a captain?

IMHO it was not good.

BB Good comments, one of the most boring matches I ever watched, IO managed 25 minutes before switching channels.

Awise Sir Woy.

Finally people are seeing it.
