Watching England perform in todays world cup game against Algeria was heart breaking to say the least. Even the non English vicarious English football fans (read Chelsea, United, Arsenal fans world wide) were at pain watching the Brit display of football. No one expects swash buckling blitz kreig soccer, but we expect the pros to complete passes to their team mates. It is hard to explain the dismal showings of the English teams year after year in the world cups.
The way a German shirt inflates an average German player to rise above the ordinary and put on a passionate performance, the curse of the English shirt seems to have the exactly opposite effect and deflating the superstars of English football.
England 0-0 Algeria
