There should never be a process of 'rebuilding'. To need a paradigm shift is a sign of serious mismanagement.

The fact is we simply don't have the players to build with and it certainly shouldn't be happening at an international tournament.

We don't know how to create chances beyond set plays. It is a glaring and obvious weakness.
You missed the chance that James Milner fluffed then, or the one that Mexis denied Welbeck from Johnsons cross?

If Milner scores (as he should have) it probably goes down as a top drawer performance. Given the fact that its opening game and no one wants to get off to a losing start I think the chances we created were just fine.

If you and your students disagree I can live with that.
