Barry man of the match,even the commentators rave about him now.Also micah richards,another solid performance.Thought the game went flat when the subs came on.Shows he picked the best team to start with.A few players had poor games[gerard being one]and we looked dodgy in defence a couple of times.But overall they were no match for us.I thought we played better in the games that heskey was involved in,and maybe crouch should have been involved.We still pump in high balls even when we have no big target men,and they got wasted.The russians looked dodgy when heskey battered them in the air,so maybe crouch with his height could do some damage.From a villa point of view i would have liked to see ashley young get a few minutes,with his pace he would have murdered estonia.Russia 1 england 2[crouch and gerard-set pieces]
cornerstone.
