Maybe this is just me being typical pessimistic about my beloved Three Lions? But our squad is weak, and as much as I disposed to like Hodgson as a West Bromwich Albion supporter, the slow evolving, almost negative style of football the England have been playing at times is certainly not the kind you produce to win tournaments. Our squad is decent, but is no better than that. Whilst the likes of Rooney, Gerrard et al have big tournament experience, the spread of world class players across England’s squad is too thin.
