Bendter has to be the most overrated danish striker ever.

If only you could trade his ego for abillity.

He's been so anonymous we might as well have played with a log of wood in front.

Neither side impressed, nice performance from Agger, Kjær and specially Eriksen from a danish pov.
Well deserved victory England.

Denmark 1 Villa 2 :D Great to see so many Villa players, past and present, on the pitch for England and good performances from them to boot. People criticise Barry but he played that holding role in midfield much better than Wiltshere -- the way he was bigged up by Capello, though, he was always going to be disappointing.

Nice goal by Rossi for Italy, good to see him being given a chance at last.

Shock horror, someone that been playing the role at the professional leveldone better then a 19yr old newcomer! Wouldnt have expected that much from the lad personally, only half watched, but he looked like he be a useful deep sitting playmaker, rather than a more defensive sitting one.

Andy Townsend doesnt half spout some shite , Wilshere made a couple of sideways passes and townsend was saying "he can match up with anyone in the world , best england player for ages etc..." , he played ok but lets not go overboard.

British commentators aint the only ones spouting shite, 20 mins into 1st half danish commentators had already compared Eriksen to Beckham and Michael Laudrup. :)

He's a great talent but he's not even 20 yet and had 1 good season in Ajax, calm down ffs!

Barry was a great player when he was at Villa, he's really gone to shit since his move. His international performances have really been lacking - although that may be more to Capello using him solely in a defensive role. Wiltshire is the future of our midfield, and he is far more creative than Barry.

That's 3 goals in the last 3 games he's played isn't it? Seems like he's getting back on form.

Aye utter nonsense, you would swear he was Paul Scholes in his prime after those comments. Laughable but then that is the English media for you.

I feel a bit sorry for Jack he is getting the Theo treatment (much to much and much to young ect). So much pressure lumped on him. But the lad is full of confidence he will continue to improve. He was playing out of position in what is his break though season. I think he will eventually have a great England run but it will not be as a DM. I think Jack will end up in the free role.

Yep, it is going to hinder his development, I always fear for young talent in London anyway but this media nonsense is getting silly now and it is going to ruin a very good prospect if we aren't careful. Since when did the media give a fuck about England or football though? It is all about the ratings and selling their grubby little rags every day.

Yeah, he wants to be where Lamps / Gerrard play. You saw in the first half he probably broke team orders and broke free quite a bit, forcing Lamps to sit back more.

Cho: I think Wenger will manage his development well, despite the best efforts of our press to ruin him.

It's starting to happen with Josh McEachran as well, i'm sure they'll do their best to fuck him up.

Wenger will do fine by Jack but like Theo he could of done with staying away from the national squad for a while.
