thinking practically....tonight just bumped Bentley's price tag to the 20 million mark

Which means Rovers FC are now worth a lot more than they were three hours ago.

Excellent performance from Bentley. He put himself in contention for a regular place in the England squad with that performance. He was the main positive which came out of todays game.

An great second half today and it's good to see England play with the ball on the ground.

Great start!

He looked much more ineffective when pushed into the middle. Hopefully Capello, and Hughes realised this and only move him in when it is an emergency.

I think he mainly sat back once he moved into the middle because Ashley Young and SWP both like to sprint down the wings causing more open space for the Swiss to counter in. If they did that whilst Gerrard and himself were also around the opponents area, England would have been caught out. It's all about the right balance and he did well moving in the centre, despite not being as creative as he was on the right hand side.

Oh I hope that is a joke, I really do.

Very good performance by Bentley, I think he'll be starting on the right side again the next friendly.

A superb 90mins from Sir Dave Bentley. A few world class balls into the front man and a better touch from rooney or crouch and they would have been assists. He was unlucky not to get on the end of cole's ball for the first goal.

A definate pick for the next game.

Gerrard " man of the match " at the stadium. :unsure:

Who picked that?

I couldn`t figure out whether he was left wing, inside left, outside left, inside out, hokey cokey!?!

He wasn`t in it!

As for Lawrenson commenting on PC users as " geeks ".

Well, words fail me

At the beginning of the game he commented on a new beginning. If only that included the commentators. Motson and Lawro are beyond awful and I know not of anyone who enjoy their drivel.

While England were slowly building a move which ended in a good save from Swiss keeper, crowd- "booooooooooo!".

When Bentley put in probably his ONLY poor ball in the whole game, Crowd- "Only one David Beckham"

I knew when the England roadshow ended up back in London, the Southern (largely) cretins who go to Wembley would resurface.

That's what I was thinking

Don't be suprised if he's off in the Summer :unsure:

Would you rather he played badly?

It reflects well on Rovers when:-

1: We get players in to the squad

2: We get players in to the 1st team

3: They could easily be man of the match

It looks good on us and if he does move on it only increases his price.

Its a win win
