Germany Light Years Ahead of us.

Should have played Gomez instead of gotze

 

Konoplyanka, Yarmelenko and personally Rakitskiy, on current form anyway, would walk into our England team at the minute!

 

I thought the main difference was the bench - they have far more options than we do - and then we used those options spectacularly badly. I think that Hodgson is a decent manager, but he got it very wrong on Saturday as we saw. A few tweaks and I think we can do well. But whether Hodgson will be brave enough to make those tweaks remains to be seen.
