Manchester United youngster Tom Cleverley got the final touch, but it was fine build-up play in two-touch training and bodes well for Sunday’s must-win match against the Czech Republic.
At England Under-21 training today there was also a rather amusing Ouch! involving Fabrice Muamba and the unfortunate Jason Steele.
They'll need to do both things against the Czech Republic tomorrow...
If England does not put a good performance against Czech then they really need a new manager. England U21 has such a talented squad and if Stuart Pierce can't get the best of them (like Capello with the senior squad), then he should leave
England always has good defenders and attackers but lack creativity in midfield hope Wilshere changes that
England's problem (under 21 team at least) is their inability to adapt (think a lot of the blame lays with Pearce). Against Ukraine there was far too many long balls.. this might have worked well back with Carrol in the side but Welbeck isn't the best in the air and Sturridge has poor control. They have some quality players in their side and with Henderson and Rodwell, I can't see why they can't keep the ball on the ground and let the likes of Welbeck, Sturridge, Sinclair run at defenders?
Also I agree with reddragon, Sinclair should be first team.
Nice goal.. they should try and make this happen in a regular match
