Replying To Breffni39:  "Also think its a bit rich of ex England players ie former spectacular International failures to be high-horsing about the current batch.

The only people to have done anything worthwhile for England since 66 are Terry Venables and The Lightning Seeds."
Oh music wise come on Breff, I'm not blinkered enough to accept New Order's England tune for Italia 90 was quality (as was most of what New Order used to produce IMO) but Lightning Seeds? Feckin awful man!

Oh I agree they're awful, but "3 Lions" was a failry inspirational tune for a generation of English people I'm led to believe!

Replying To Breffni39:  "Does the "academy generation" not exist elsewhere? ie in successful countries (internationally)"
Yep! La Masia probably the most well known.
You're right about Carragher. I'm not sure he even played many games where he was part of England tournament squads.
