England drop to 17th in the FIFA rankings. I would say that's a fair reflection of where the team should currently sit. Normally, those rankings show us as much better than we actually prove to be. |

And 3rd only a year ago, but that was really my point. Who would have seriously suggested that we've been in the top 10 countries in the world over the last 5 years or so? The rankings are normally a shocking reflection of reality, but on this occasion, I would suggest that 17th is a fairly good reflection of how England have been performing over the last few years. |

17th is not where you belong, somewhere btw 25 and 30 would be an actual reflection |

Seems Roy has pulled off his expectation lowering. With the national pool England have they should be top 10, very easily. |

Hodgson on Ashley Young omission: "I don't like to use the word 'dropped'. He just fell outside the 23, I guess ..."

Hodgson re Hart: "It will take a lot more than a bad game for any player before I start suggesting he should be replaced." "I have no doubt Joe will come through this and put one bad game behind him." Poor Roy, in so much denial |
