Germany Yet Again

So a much improved England got through and now The Germans loom on the next front.

"New and Improved" sounds like a washing powder, but England could have not got worse than their hitherto gutless perfomances.

Still Rooney and Lampard fail to deliver. I would put them on the bench on Sunday afternoon. Joe Cole came on and played out of position, Heskey is another passenger.

But the other 9 players were worth their place to varying degrees, we got through, it would have been more but for the Slovenian Goalkeeper.

I think the biggest contributors were the England supporters. No other nation has out matched the vuvuzelas for decibel level. Well done England and well done their loyal singing and chanting barmy army.
