I'm a little disappointed in Ecaudor, I expected them to kick the #### out of England, and still have England ink out a win.

Anyway happy about the result. We've got Portugal up next. Boy will that be a mountian to climb over. Christiano Ronaldo and Figo up against my Gerrard and Becks. AHHH, attack of the hotties. (I know, I know I'm such a girl!)

This will be a tough game, England will have to do something spectacular to win. Um, how about taking out that waste of a kit, Lampard. How many Shots and Shots on Goal has he got with a result. It's called finishing ####. Gerrard has way less and already has 2 goals this tourney.

I'd like to see Lennon and Becks on that Right side again, they can totally work at it together. You've got Joe Cole on the left, Gerrard in the middle pushing foward, keep Hardgraves middle back, Rooney up front (duh, he'd have a cow if you left him out), Terry, Rio, Ashely Cole, and Neville if fit or Carra on the right. Robinson in Goal (he's a little shaky but way better than David James, and Carson is still untested). That's 11 right? I know that would be a steady 11. Sven are you listening.

That's our best 11 without Michael Owen. Carrick did alright today, but he didn't do enough to make me keep him as a starter. Crouchy is still pidgon holed as a air only man, it's going to be hard to put him up there as a lone striker, and a rooney and crouch action is still untested. Both our strikers up there is a gamble, but we've got an ace in the pocket right? Walcott is supposed to be good right?

Speaking of which. Why is our bench so untested, when Portugal, Spain, Argentina and others are SO DEEP. Seriously deep, they can rest all the starters and play the whole bench and win!  Is the EPL too full of foreign talent, or did Sven just pick a too young of a squad? He left out many usual suspects, Dyer, Wright-Phillips and others.

Carrick , Downing, Walcott, Lennon, Jenas, Carson are all untested in International level (Some in EPL for that matter). Wayne Bridge is alright I guess, and David James in goal scares the #### out of me, I swear he's as unpredicable as..i don't know what. I just don't trust him, as I would a Dida, Dudek, Reina, Keller, Friedel or Kahn.

Where is all the English talent? I guess our starting 11 or 12 is it. This is the last chance for some of them, or maybe not, if England can't produce The "Next Ronaldo" or next "Maradona", we'll just have to keep, Becks and Terry out there untill they are old and grey like Zidane. Or maybe we do have the next superstar, walcott and lennon, we just don't trust them to get it done, yet.
