FT Switzerland 1-3 England
Rooney, A Johnson and Bent with the goals.

Max points, without Lampard our midfield looks alot more balanced.


Lucky Scots, scoring in the 7th minute of injury time to beat the mighty Liechtenstein 2-1

Good results for England(but not great-let's not get carried away)
Didn't watch Bulgaria game(listened on radio and saw highlights) and have had concussion for last couple of days so I couldn't go to pub to watch Switzerland match on sky (was only vaguely aware anyway so it would have been a waste of time and money). Adam Johnson seems to have finally answered our left wing problem. Rooney seems better but still not at his best-understandable if rumours about his personal life are true-he'll get an especially nasty reception when man utd play everton now.

Adam Johnson seems to have finally answered our left wing problem.

You would think so being left footed, but both games hes played on the right, Milner was on the left.

[lazyitus]

Well that doesn't make a lot of sense because they'll both always have to cut inside to cross but I suppose against stronger teams they can switch so left footer is on left and right footer on right..

[Paul]

Not really, if their weaker foot is decent enough. Just think Messi, hes left footed but plays on the right. I think its so you can come in on to your stronger foot and shoot.

I would prefer Milner on the right, he can cross a ball. Good options we have.
