    I don't think it's hype so much as fashion.

    He was a more defensive right back than many of the ones that people like. And that worked within United's system. They had strong attacking wing players and his role was more to provide sole defensive cover so that the likes of Beckham didn't have to worry about defending for a second.

    Maybe you are right. Nowadays wingbacks need to attack. But Beckham was also overrated. Great pass, great shot but he couldn't get past a lantern post.

    I like how a lot of ppl were bashing portugal for drawing vs Iceland, well look at this, England loosing.
    They can still win it, but damn, they, at one point in the game, were losing.

    I was not bashing Portugal for drawing against them. I was bashing the fact they acted like sorrow losers afterwards.

    They played even more defensively than today, fucking annoying like Greece 2004.

    They were playing much more defensively because it was portugal, not england DDDDD

    The bashing was due to Ronaldo's comments.

    They most certainly are going full Lindisfarne on England in this match.

    God damn, how do we make a strong start for once and then concede against instantly? Wayne just wasn't in competition for the first ball at all and that was great movement to get on the end of it. Second goal was a pretty sweet bit of play but the shot should have been easy for Hart. Maybe it is time for him to get benched and someone else get a chance in an England shirt.

    England haven't created much, a few long shots that were half close and Smalling nearly getting on the end of that free-kick, otherwise we simply lack movement and creativity.

    Also I hate Sturridge on the right-wing, he is far too one footed. He has to play in the middle or not at all.

    He is doing a better job of getting us out of Europe than Boris!
