W.A.G.S

I believe everyone should have known by now that England was booted out by Portugal in the World Cup Quarter Finals stage and Rooney was sent off in the second off for pushing his club mate Christiano Ronaldo of Portugal and England played a senseless and ineffective 4-5-1 formation. This English team had the best chance of winning the World Cup since 1966 and they screwed it up big time by employing a stupid formation and making the mistake of hiring Erickson.
I have nothing in particular against Erickson. His managerial club credentials are good and that's the reason why England offered him a multi-million pound deal to coach the team. I would say that Erickson lost control of his team and has bowed to team pressure as he persistently stuck with David Beckham who was ineffective save for his setpieces and he should have been bold enough to use Aaron Lennon.
Lately, the public are more accustomed to seeing the W.A.G.S(wifes and girlfriends) of the English team strutting their stuff and partying their hearts out and shopping till their husbands' credit limit goes bust. The public was fed with news on the W.A.G.S and we nearly forgot about the English team when we see the W.A.G.S. I won' t say that these clowns are to blame as the English team should have been more professional but the attention has been on the wrong issue all the time. Unless the English team gets itself more organised and not let the W.A.G.S take centre-stage and not be arrogant just because the EPL happens to be the most entertaining league but not the England national team, I can't see England lifting the World Cup. I hope this will be a wake-up call to England!
