So is Wilshere going to make England better at pens? Because that's the only thing really wrong with English football at the International level at least in terms of results.



Not even close.

Crazy just outlined the problems with England the past 46 years. In essence, England never evolved with the modern game.

England sucks in penalty kicks, but that doesn't excuse poor play that led them to said shootouts. Look at the Italy quarterfinal this past June. England was thoroughly outclassed most of the 120 minutes of play.

I would say the only England team that was unlucky to lose in penalties was the 1990 team that lost to Germany in the World Cup semifinals.

What does that mean? What is the modern game? There are a million ways to win a game. Why is one different or better than the other?

So outclassed that Italy was unable to score in 120 minutes of play?
