I Remember it exactly the same. All my mate where slagging him off, but he was the only one trying anything. Right now he should be ahead of Milner as he has the workrate and the attacking ability too.

Didn't Johnson also nullify any real threat the Lennon could have been too? Not wanting to pass the buck but it seemed like Johsnon took it upon himself to play down the whole right side, which meant Lennon was stuck in no-mans land.

I just think, if only Walker was 4 years older, then he and Lennon would be the perfect right side for England. When I say 4 years older, I really mean if he reaches the potential that he has, improving his game consequently and becoming better than Johnson on a consistent basis.
I always like having club links at International level. I think that this helps being out the best in players through familiarity, players are more aware of the other's style of play, which runs the player is likely to make, and where and when to release the pass.
I think then England's right side would be sorted.

Agree. Like Beckham and Neville for the most part.

That was because of Glen Johnson, who fudged Lennon's game by 'glory-boying' it 40-50 yards before passing to a by-then tightly marked Lennon.
EDIT: sorry, just saw Auto had said this already

Must contribute to the Spanish success that the majority of their players play for either Real Madrid or Barca.

Can't stand Glen Johnson.
if Lennon is one of the most under-rated England players this twunt has to be one of the most over-rated. Average at best defender who occasionally gets a glory wander up field too pay off.

He was taken off in the Algeria game right after he put in a superb cross too.

For me lennon should be in this squad. Remember those games well and blind freddy could see that Johnson was taking Lennon's space and being totally ineffectual in the process, but the manager...? Walker was often guilty of the same sin IMO. Lennon is at his best facing goal running into space. When he gets up a head of speed, Aaron is almost as difficult as Bale.

Welbeck is crap too. I like Sturridge as a goalscorer, but his overall play isn't great, bit of a sulker too.

I'm quite intrigued by this game, Ireland should be up for it so it will be interesting to see if England actually step up.. Or just keep playing their unique brand of pedestrian football.

I think their will be some trouble and some sectarian chanting at this game. The EDL/Casuals have been riled up recently and they'd probably want to let off steam at wembley.
