Yeah. I switched over to watch German coverage at half-time and see
what Günter Netzer had to say rather than listen to the predictable
stuff ITV would have. He is usually quite pithy, and I don't always
agree with him, but he said that the tradition of top-class goalies
which he said was always one of England's strengths appears to be
over. It has been our Achilles heel for some years now and looks set
to continue as those goalies who might do the business are unable to
play because they are kept out of first teams by foreigners like, er,
Tim Howard :-(

Could have been worse I suppose.

Indeed, where are Banks and Shilton when we need them?
