1953, Wembley.

[Sir C]

England are shocked by the Mighty Magyars and the country looks in wonder at Puskas' drag-back. 1977, the Netherlands win 2-0 at Wembley and the crowd gasps as Cruyff demonstrates his special turn. Through the 70s and 80s Tony Currie, Stan Bowles, Frank Worthington, Matt Le Tissier and Glenn Hoddle win but a handful of caps between them.

We've learnt though, haven't we?

2017 - Mesut Ozil is lazy.

:rolleyes:

I rather think Mesut Özil is German, C. Would any of those other chaps you mention get anywhere near the England team today? What about the upper reaches of the Premier League, or even the Champions League?

So, we have actually learned something, I guess :-\

Bowles and Worthington spent much of their time in their cups to be fair.
