Hmmm interesting rumour that one - the version I heard was that it was a mere 16year old young thing. This version probably beats that one for salaciousness. In the end though their bedroom shenanigans are irrelevant, and the interest in them is just ridiculous.
Given that there are only two managers alive who can equal or better Don Fabio - Mourinho and Sir Taggart - IMHO England flopped because: Mentality ====== If you watch even 30mins of SS then you'd think the English Prem was THE BEST LEAGUE IN THE WORLD EVER EVER EVER.....when we all know it's still the English Div 1 but now with more bells and whistles. Sky would have you believe that EVEN THE WORST player in the EPL is a genius, and if you're not playing in it then frankly you're a donkey. OF course ANY league that is not the EPL is simply a joke as are all those who play in it. I reckon the mentality of the English players is all wrong - they have the Sky Sports rubbish in the background and still have a Johnny Foreigner attitude. International players know this and if they didn't need any additional motivation this one gets them going even more. For example, WHY would you say that playing badly against Algeria you'd still win? Or constant sniggering about the yanks and soccerball etc? Over here in EspaƱa they might whinge at hard tackles against Xavi etc, but you'll never hear them write off the opposition before a ball is kicked. Still though, I reckon like everyone else that Sky Sports and their money (direct to players) has ruined the England game. In FACT, we all know that we'll probably enjoy LUFC in the Championship more than if were in the Prem as at least it's a competitive league. Lack of Talent ========= Be honest English amigos, of your starting XI, about 5 of them are decent but not world class: James, Johnson, Upson/Carragher, SWP, and of course Heskey. Of course Don Fabio picked the lot of them, but who else does he pick?? Crouch and a 3 legged chair for either SWP and Heskey but still, not so much on the bench. As for these alleged and true s2agging scandals, for fek sake - who cares? Again an example from here is that - although I don't follow it - the only WAG of the Spanish team anyone could name is Casilla's current lady (who IS AS FIT AS TEN BUTCHERS dogs combined), but that's mostly because she's on the telly as a sports "journalist". The rest, I have no idea nor is it known. Tactics ===== Although technically some of the England XI are nothing special, you should still get to the QFs. It seems to me that the Eng players just ignore what EVERY coach tells them to do and they still play the mad rush game (I don't say long). Can they not just stroke it about a bit? Again, a mentality problem - they can do it, but they don't.
