Sack the stubborn manager. Anybody in this forum could pick a losing team. How much is he paid?
Far too easy to blame the only person not actually playing football. !!!
Put it this way, would you like a job where you were rated on the performance of 11 people for 90 minutes??
Same with the first match: People were only too eager to blame Green for the horrendous mistake. Very few actually blamed the 10 players in front of him that should have stopped the ball from getting that far down the pitch.
with respect John, that's a daft argument... you're the keeper, your job is to stop the ball coming towards you... if the other 10 were that good, you wouldn't play with a keeper. But if the keeper performs relatively worse than other keepers, he's carp.
As for capello.... the team plays as he dictates. If he puts rooney in goal and james on the wing, do you blame capello or the players?
