I've been watching the Under 21 tournament on channel 4 rather than this World club cup thing and one funny moment in the England match earlier was when Beadle the England goalkeeper sat down on 35 minutes the camera panned straight over to the England bench and stopped on Tommy Simkin !!!

That game was like watching paint dry, an absolute repeat of all the recent senior performances, if they're taught to be that slow at u21 no wonder were so boring at senior level.

No,it's not much better than the Freight Rover Trophy from years gone by.
That trophy still exists- different sponsor these days.
We won it and also finished runners up not so long ago
A new hope.

Missing a good number of players who would be starting otherwise, but yeah, was a drab performance and even missing those players, the quality of players remaining in the squad should've been enough to comfortably dispatch Slovenia.
