Well Hodgson is a cunt for some other reason then.

Hodgson has said England will play 4-4-2 tonight, according to Henry Winter. So I guess that means Sterling out wide. :doh:
By far England's best player atm, should be given a free role behind Sturridge. Welbz on the bench.
So England will line-up like this:
-------------------Hart--------------------
Stones-----Jones-----Cahill-------Baines
Oxlade---Henderson--Wilshere---Sterling
------------Rooney--Sturridge------------
Unless he tries that diamond thingy, with Henderson on the right and Wilshere playing deep?
Probably wouldn't work.
442 is dead. Long live 442.
Saying that, Rooney will drop back into his own box anyway, so it doesn't really matter.
I thought that Rooney wank wasn't playing?
Told you Hodgson was a cunt. England finally have a player worth a mention who already showed he was a threat during the WC so the stupid fuck plays that fat bastard in his position. Makes sense.
LOL - there's only 7 people in the crowd and 6 of them are Norwegian.
lol Norway's defender used to be in our reserves
recognise his name
Rooney is total shite.
Sturridge fucked that up.
this game sucks
zzzzzzzz
Rooney can't help being a thug, even in a friendly. Deliberate elbow - should have been a red.
Rooney is just diabolical.
Wilshere and Ox for MotM I presume.
Ox, Sterling, Sturridge and Jack all doing okay. Stones doing okay too. rooney is the new sanogo.
Ozil anonymous as Argies go 2-0 up.
I really can't quite fathom that Wazza is now captain for club and country.
Scrotey GHELish dive by Jack, he's learning.
Money and the hype wagon. He's probably the worst striker in International football. But because he scored that goal for Everton against us and then went for £30mill and now steals £300k per week he one of those football celebs that doesn't really need to play football any more. So he doesn't.
Polish team ice water challenge

Chesney lol
HT 0-0
Average start to the match with some good stuff every now and again, then drifted out to a pile of shit. Norway woeful, hardly opposition at all. England looked little bit dangerous when they played with a higher tempo. But then they slowed it all down and now they look like Arsenal on a slow day. Tip, tap, tip, tap. Lose it. Get it back. Tip, tap, tip, tap. The odd hoof to test Sturridge's first touch seems to be the main offensive tactic. But when Sturridge has combined with either Sterling on the left or Ox on the right there have been glimmers of hope. It's hard to beat Rooney though, easily Norway's best defender.

Lol Chesney indeed. :lol:
Baines :haha: Terrible defending.
Ho hum, Norway starting to get the upper hand. Hart has to make the save.
What a boring match.
No wonder 50,000 tickets were left unsold for this.
Norway should be in the lead, Cahill falls over and lets his man straight in on goal. Greedy though, with a man square waiting for the tap in.
To be fair to Hart, he's kept them in it.
England don't a style of play. No identity or method to it.
It's just hit and hope at this point.
This performance has Hodgson's stench all over it. You can see the tactics and strategies and pretty patterns, what a load of bollocks. It's Norway. Just go and tell the players to play and enjoy it, get a result and a bit of confidence.
Because the media picks the team he can't pull the completely ineffective Rooney off and put a decent player on.
Brilliant, James Milner coming on. That's really going to make things exciting.
Pelanty to England.
Wazza puts it away. 1 - 0 to England.
Cunt rooney scores a pen so he can grab the headlines after doing nothing - AGAIN.
England 1-0
Our new striker comes on.
Delph and Milner - LOL
Both our lads off now so come on Norway!!!
Oh fuck - that cunt rooney off and Welbeck on. Come on England :sulk:
Welbeck :doh:
Fantastic stuff from Welbeck. Hope we see more of this that season.
Already shown himself better than Sanogo with that.
Amazing by Milner - how can a professional footballer do something like that?
