Barcelona midfielder Xavi has often talked about the importance of the training, saying- "It's all about rondos. Rondo, rondo, rondo. Every. Single. Day. It's the best exercise there is. You learn responsibility and not to lose the ball. If you lose the ball, you go in the middle. Pum-pum-pum-pum, always one touch. If you go in the middle, it's humiliating, the rest applaud and laugh at you."

I thought he had a good game considering he had absolutely no service and had to make do with long balls, something that's not an easy skill it itself.

Bugger off Glowy! :wub:
He played well last night, yeah he didnt take his one and only chance. Hardly any balls came in from the wings for him to attack, other than that. His hold up play, bringing others into the game and his defensive work can not be knocked by anyone.
The big lad did him self no harm with his performance. :wub: :wub:

I'm not sure you could say that any player (on either team) played well last night. Maybe Parker.

I thought ash did well.

This might actually work in our favour, going into a tournament with zero expectation, only for us to win it 8-)

We'll be lucky to make it out of the group stages.

England are better than Sweden and the Ukraine.
