Rose Coloured Glasses?

Did England expect? Not sure Popz did. Watched the game through these glasses, I guess a bit like watching through your fingers with a pained expression on your face.

It was as far as they could have hoped to get given the plethora of non-world class players in the squad. It seems there is a number of them who must perform amazingly well (or maybe certain favours?) in training and Parker's gallant efforts running around in as many circles as he possibly can in 90 minutes showed that he has a heart as big as an elephant's, but his contribution when within sight of the opposition goal rather showed how much Lampard was missed.

Then there is the enigma that is Milner.
I tried on Popz's glasses.
I tried on rose tinted glasses.
Nope. Still can't see it.
