Digi on any other occasion, I'd agree with you. The "English" have a habit of hyping up their teams which just puts so much pressure on the players and makes the fans expect a whole lot more.

That isn't really the case when I watched the England - France game this evening. The English have a very formidable team and while the French were able to pass it about, they couldn't really do much to get the ball into within 18 yards of the goal. The English played good, strong football. I mean Henry and Trezequet had a very quiet evening considering that one of them has been named player of the year 2 years running in the Premiership.
