Guess that's because of Ljunberg(sp) and half the French playing for Arsenal is it?
I must say I am still amazed Arsenal did so well this season. I think though it is down to the English defence. Without that they would just be another Chelsea, 11 foreigners with nothing at the end of the season.

Positives: Vassell looked lively throughout, Owen led the line well, Hargreaves was excellent. Rio, Sol and Southgate all looked composed on the ball and were never flustered. Cole showed some bright touches and the bit of invention we lacked once Scholes left the pitch.
Negatives: After h-t we were poor. Sinclair gave the ball away too much, Sheringham did nothing and Brown was quite poor at fullback. Heskey was quiet throughout, never holding on to the ball well, and never really getting into goal-scoring opportunites, except in the 1st half, when Scholes put him through only for a poor first touch to waste the moment. Keown was at fault for the goal. Murphy never really got into the game.
Overall: An average performance, again, when we made all the changes we let them back into the game, resulting in the corner from which they scored. Not too disappointing. If we can get some semblance of a team out against Cameroon it will be better.
Also, I think moving Heskey to a more central position could be better. He tends to get isolated on the left, not getting into the middle enough. When he did, he created the goal, passing to Scholes, for the shot that Owen turned in. Owen naturally tends to drift to the left anyway, and he can still take people on. Heskey needs to get more central, more often.

Good grief, England are crap. Even with a 'weakened' team, we should beat South Korea.
And people still give us a chance in the World Cup?!
At least it'll be over after the first week and we can watch some real football! :-)
I'll be cheering for Sweden/France once we're out.

It's 1-1 now :(
