to be fair hes partially right. there are problems all over the shop, top to bottom. not even the fans are blameless in this. we demand instant results far too often, clubs look for an instant solutiondoubt it.. i blame the huge wages and lack of inclination and media pressure... don't forget that our current side is actually **** regardless of any excuses people would conjure up.
that part is true. but it is their fault that yough english players get a lack of exposure, which is part of the problem. there is more than one issue at fault.It's not the fault of the Premier League that English players are not as technically gifted as foreign players.

only partly true, there is the balance between longterm development and instant results and at the moment its slanted heavily in favour of the latter. its one thing say england arent as good, but you have to look at the reasons why. and when you do that you see there are a myriad of problems right from the FA to our own society itselfThey dont get the exposure because they are not as good. If they were that good in the first place English teams wouldnt buy so many players from other countries.
Maybe England just arent as good at football as they thought they were.
i agree and like i said, you have to look deeper than that and ask why arent they as good, and for those few who have the potential, why arent we playing them more"I kind of agree with all the comments on here but could the reason be there not getting chances in the Premier League because they're not actually good enough? Since Wayne Rooney how many English youths have made you sit up and say this guy will be World Class,with the possible exception of Jack Wilshere.Because I havent seen any oO)
i agree. i wasnt talking terms of world 2010 per se, but in terms of england football as it. 2010 was just another result of the long term flaws in our game. the lack of action they took years back in terms of english talent had an effect todayI don't see how they can be blamed for how poor we were at this World Cup. Fair enough finding reasons to blame them for the lack of English players in the league. But surely the elite (ie the ones who were in the squad) English players who do play in, arguably, the best league in the world and play against some of the best players in the world week in week out have no excuse for being that poor and tactically inept.
are you talking about first team training or from a young age?It doesnt matter how much training you get, you still have to have natural talent. If the English players dont show that they have that on trials etc. They arent going to get signed.

a lot of bang on stuff there. the part where you say there arent arent enough talented players is where we have a problem in our young coaching. the continent is lght years ahead of us in that respect hence they have more talented players on average.Well, both really, becuase if they dont show that they have something when they are young and clubs are looking at them they wont be signed and your career is over before it got started. And in the Premier League if you dont show you have natural talent you will soon find yourself in the reserves or being released.
Personally I think there just isnt as many 'talented' footballers in this country as others do. I also dont think it helps that alot of younger guys in this country get signed and then get to a certain point where they can afford nice cars etc and then think they dont have to try anymore.
