So that means lots of 1-0 wins then?
Score early on & then defend for the remaining 80mins

yes...it could be true, but it's better win 1-0 than loose 3-4 on your own fields against Croatia

I know it's a bit late, after Sven and all, but am I being old-fashioned in thinking that the England football team should have an English manager?

Considering the lack of talent in the squad isn't this a bit of a poisoned chalice?

the lack of talents isn't important in foot-ball...in the field they are 11 and they should play as a team...not as single player
and Capello can give to 11 eleven good players the look of a good team....an exsample of a team was the Italy at the last world championship...no great players but 11 good foot-ballers playing as a team

PLUS a ref that decided the match against the Aussies for them.....
PLUS a Zinedine going totally crazy......
Maybe blind LUCK has also got to do with their 2006 performance....
Italy is very result minded where other teams also try to play the game by aiming at goals instead of defending. But yeah.....congrats with all the good results and good that you keep all these boring matches for granted.
As for England: The nation that invented soccer will have to play the game the way they won't like it....i.e. the Italian way. Enjoy!
