To be a great game, one of the teams has to score first.
England are numerically outnumbered in the midfield.
Exeter City's trip to Old Trafford will be a great day for their fans but that is about it - they won't get the result they want against Manchester United.
Figo is as important to England as Beckham is.
If you're a goalkeeper, it doesn't matter what you save the ball with - if you keep it out, it's not a goal.
It's sometimes easier to defend a one goal lead than a two goal lead.
These managers all know their onions and cut their cloth accordingly.
My feeling is unless they've somebody lined up and they are convinced he is going to be better than Brian, I think their decision has been made in haste.
The longer the game went on, you got the feeling that neither side really wanted to lose.
