RE: One England Fans Rollercoaster of Emotions
Hi @misterakpan
Thanks for the great comments.
England definitely were rusty and traditionally start that way in tournaments. I just hope we can gain enough confidence from that last minute goal and go on to beat Panama.
The EPL is a spectacle but has very little to do with England. The percentage of English players is very low and I'm sure that effects our overall ability. In a way the expectation of other countries of English players is inflated because of our league. Most England fans have adjusted their expectations to be lower, these days.
What are your expectations for Nigeria? I was quite impressed with them against England in the friendly. They seemed to underperforming a little in their first game though.
Thanks for checking my post out and best of luck tomorrow.
