Well I thought we played well.
Our defense still isn't working together as a unit, but how can it when the players only get together a handfull of times a year?
I guess the key will be to use players that understand each other already. Once Sol Cambell has settled at Arsenal he may form a great partnership with Martin Keown, why not let the national team take advantage of this? Throw Ashley Cole into the picture too, and the 3/4 of the defense will already be working as aunit.
That would mean leaving out Rio Ferdinand, who has played quite well for England lately.
It was good to see Scholes playing well again. He was always busy in midfield, and made a number of chances.
Trever Sinclair did okay, but I don't think he's the answer to the left side problem. Anderton was pretty much anonymous after he came on.
Phillips didn't do baly up front, but Fowler was much more impressive, getting into good positions.
Beckham certainly knows how to take a penalty! Christ, did he ever put some power behind that!
Sweden had won something ridiculous like 13 games on the trot, and are full of confidence, it's good to see that we played at least at the same level.
Come February, when we play Holland, our defense will get a good test. We need tough gammes to prepare us for the World Cup.

I thought the match was good. I didn't see it all, only watch the highlights on BBC saturday evening, but they only cut out 15 mins from the 90, so it wasn't so bad.
We shouldn't have had that penalty. Simple as that.
Also, we did play well, but not as well as we need to. Beckham was once again in a class of his own - we're a bit up sheet street if anything happens to him before next summer.
I thought Heskey appeared to do sod all - except fall over, as per usual.
