gnasher16 30,118 Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 (edited) [quote name='Cajunrules' date='19 June 2010 - 07:17 PM' timestamp='1276971460' post='1602453' Who in the English first division played with two defenders? Genuine question Im talking about the days of half backs and inside forwards,showing my age a bit ....but take the Arsenal team that won the fa cup in 79 as an example,i wont give you the West Ham team who beat them a year later as you probably wont have heard of half of them 2 central defenders were Young and O leary ( i think ) 2 half backs were Rice and Nelson with i think Brian Talbot in the middle. Then you had Price,Sunderland,Stapleton,Brady and Rix.......Brady and Price were inside forwards,Sunderland Stapleton and Rix were out and out forwards.....dont quote me as this is really stretching the memory,if it was the Hammers id tell you who was on the bench as well What im saying is the English game has definately become more defensive,playing 1 striker is in my mind the most negative formation a team could possibly start with,this possession play and slow build up is just not the English way.

foxshooter69 6 Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 all future England games have been moved to the Gay Adult channel, apparently the sight of 11 Arseholes getting hammered for 90 minutes was far too explicit for normal viewing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gnasher16 30,118 Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 no bother.sorry that was a good team you named all good players and very attack minded.then all the teams from then where the same plenty of attacking football and aloud to tackle each other. Spose you reckon it was due to the high % of paddys...inc the manager ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Attack Fell Terrier 864 Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 I've seen young lads put more effort into a game of 5 a side over the park than what the England team did last night. So far they've played f*cking shite. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
