Tiredness In both games now, the England players looked knackered after about 50-60 mins. Like in yesterdays game, know one wanted the ball in the second half untill the subs came on and fresh legs and pace changed the game for us. Now i know its feckin hot over there, but i think this could be a big factor in the bigger games if get through. I think sven definatly needs to use the subs alot cos otherwise we could have problems
i agree, it's clear that the conditions are having an adverse effect, so sven has to stay on the ball with changes.
Lampard didn't look tired in the first game, it was his 64th of the season. Poor excuse, look at King Henrik
It probably was the heat since they were playing the early match. Thankfully there are no more early matches in the competition, with the all the final group games kicking off at 7.45, same with all the knock out games
