Names and National pride don't play football these days!

so u want to compare croatia quality with iceland in your bid to defend england's failure.we knw there are surprises at major tournaments but every team knws its capabilities,this is d same icelandic team that english commentators were delighted being paired against,calling it an easy one for england and danny murphy called them a "championship "team....just look inward and admit that england are not just good enough.

Belgium has 12 players from EPL. Wales has 13.
Why don't you use these teams as a basis instead of the over hype English team..Atleast a EPL player was involved in 8 of Belgium's 8 goals so far(2 goal(Lukaku) and 6 assists(3 for Hazard and Brunye).

Bros.... Na wash!

The other dude was formerly an assistant and was promoted to be a joint coach prior to Euro for the sake of Nationalism (He is an Icelandic while Largerback is a Swede). Largerback took the job in 2011 after leaving as Super Eagles coach in 2010 and the dude (cant spell his name) was his assistant.


Largerback took them through the qualifiers and led them to their first ever Euro qualification and highest ever FIFA ranking. By most people, press, pundit, he is regard is the coach while the other dude


Largerback is probably the most popular man in iceland at the moment as he was regarded as King of Iceland by some section of the Masses. Despite not contesting, 20 people voted him for Icelandic President in the last Saturday Presidential election.

I'm not disputing the fact that England losing to Iceland is bad but that doesn't reflect the performance of evert other player in the league...

P.S I'm not saying the EPL is better than the LA Liga or Bundesliga but the English team is totally different from EPL just as the Spanish team is not the same as LA Liga.

how many foreign players are in the EPL and how many in the NPFL?

There are just 23 players in the English team, there are at least 500 in the EPL. How can you use 23 people to judge over 400 others? undecided

am not trying to defend England. I am trying to show that even with your quality and National pride you would still get beaten. No doubt Iceland's quality is not comparable to that of Crotia. Similarly Crotia's quality is not comparable to Spain but they beat Spain.


So those quality and pride doesn't matter much.


When I saw Danny Murphy's comment I immediately posted it here. because I knew it wouldn't turn out like that. Look how sore it has become for him and those who confidently said it gonna be easy. No doubt they will regard it as worst ever performance because of the disappointment. Shame!


Underating a team no matter small they are will not help any team.

England maximum height in any tournament is the quater-final, I dont think they will reach there this time. The current Icelandic team are miles above them in terms of teamwork and composure.


Since the qualifiers, I saw the intent in them. My only surprise is that Lars Lagerback is achieving great with a country of approximately 350 thousand and could do nothing much when handling a country with 180 million people.
The poor man had like 2-3 months to prepare a team. All d NFF members & ministers wants their player in d team. Then came that yeye group wey Amechi come be d head. The man confuse just take off even when he was offered a long term contract later. Everyone can see how he moulded a team with only one professional footballer.

Not every player in EPL is English.

bros you don't get our argument.
The English team is whack that. doesn't make the EPL whack...I'm very sure EPL best eleven would trash Iceland blue black with the likes of hazard,dey bruyne,aguero,Sanchez,ozil,fabregas,de gea and co...
Intact I hardly see more than 2 English players making the top 11...
The three lions are whack doesn't mean EPL is whack..
