I thought Owen Hargreaves had a really good 1st half and a not so good 2nd half. However, I believe we changed our style of play and he struggled with it.
Yeah he played well in the first half. I was quite surprised as he is one of the squad who I dont think should be there; Ive never been happy with the selection of a Canadian for the English team.
Youre right about him in the second half though, he looked completely lost playing that defence-midfield link up position. Strangely though I think thats the position he plays in for Bayern !
I really want to know what Sven will do about our striking problem. I know that Crouch/Owen is ok, Rooney/owen is good but Crouch/Rooney ? And maybe even Rooney/Gerrard ! The later would be a mistake imo, both players tend to be out-of-the-box shooters. They are not predators like Owen and Crouch.
Come on England, come on England
