theo walcott ? Pretty sure he was selected for the sake of filling the spaces. Useless in any way except for his pace.

Yes, I heartily concur Walcott was selected due to nothing but his pace. His cross-field run towards the left corner flag to lull Vidic and create space for Nasri's first goal must be due to Melanie's naked presence at the left corner flag and not because of his intelligent off-the-ball movement.

I salute your astute observation and stereotype.

Yeah, superb performance from Walcott. I can see him on SA now.

And about Defoe - Rooney, the partnership didn't work well. Maybe Rooney's partner destined to be someone taller? I'm kinda surprised Milner doesn't start, given his form. He did good if not great against Man Utd. And Brown, I think he did good because SWP subbed in. 2nd half subs made all the different, really. Looks like Capello knows who's going to South Africa now.

The entire England team was a joke in the first half. And you expect a youthful player coming back from a prolonged injury spell to carry a team of established professionals like Stevie and Franks? I like your selective logic. Deserves a 21-gun salute.
