Have we really got nobody in England good enough to make our football team a success?

Yes there is Sir Alex Freguson, Martin O'Neal, Raphael Benitez, Jose Mourinho .....

They don't have the best team, but they know how to win. Home team adventadge is a myth. In all my years playing and watching football, I never seen a fan score a goal.

They would fare okay, don't think they would challenge in their 1st season but they would improve as football teams as playing better sides has to improve you.  Don't think it will ever happen though.  The other teams need the revenue that comes from the big 2 in Scotland.

Beckham's goal was superb but I don't think England has lived up to its potential yet.................they still fail to impress me.

I don't think so. The problem with the Reds is that Benitez tries to many combinations and players don't have enough time to get used to each other tactics. A poor form in the skipper Gerrard and a lack of finish away from home( they haven't scored away in over 9 hrs) is what the reds are lacking. I hope they will win some silverware this season because they're a good team.

yes.. they hopeless... no decent half back, no great leader, not a strong pack, no presnet internationals.. the list goes on

No, they just dont have the potential. I would love to see them win but I honestly think it would be a miracle.

It is hard to tell. Nobody is playing well. Mediocre players, mediocre teams.

no, thats mission impossible for them. there will b too many fights. at least 10 a game so it would take a couple of world cups for england to try to win more games than they do fighting.

They have as good of a chance as any other team.  The probably have the 2nd best talent behind Brazil.  They will need to get out of group play healthy & find a defensive/holding centre mid-fielder. They are due & haven't won since 1966.  GO ENGLAND!

i have to be honest we probably take as much joy in seeing england fail as we do in the rare occasion we win...  just don't act like wankers and no one will bother you... we'll rip the piss out of you but a little slagging never hurt any one

Because they lack self belief! They have great players,a good manager,but not enough self belief.Even though it's steadily improving,theyr'e not quite the finished article yet.

They can and have made it this far so there ! =P\n\nPlus they have good deffenders like Terry and A Cole and good strikers like Rooney, Owen and Gerrard!\n\nAs well as men like Hargreave that get up and on with it rather than doing oscar winning dives like most other teams! \n\nWoo Go England! =D =P

They have a nice team, but they got completely outclassed by Germany. England could do the same.

I do believe that they have done the best that they can.  However, their best is still not good enough to win.  In my opinion, they need to improve their skills by sending players to Europe or South America to learn from the best.

What do you mean they are good? Come on man it is the best team in English Priemier League.

Yes, absolutely.  We still lack experience playing together in important matches, but our players have enough club experience for us to perform very well. \n\nAnd then there’s the Guus factor…\n\n\n(and thanks to SBS for having the good grace to advertise a rival site during their TV coverage this morning)
