Ireland always perform well at younger levels, whilst England have a hell of a lot of talent at their disposal.

  I saw England play Moldova at the start of the season and it was embarrassing. Most of the Moldovans played for tiny clubs in Russia or their own country and yet technically they were miles better than the English players, who apart from Nugent all played for Premiership clubs.

  - Granted, I have only watched one under 21 game this season
    
    and that was the second leg of the play off against Germany. It was very impressive. I wish Walcott took some of the confidence he showed there onto the pitch for us.

    - This sin't really interesting at all
      
      I thought this was the grouping for the under 21 world cup this summer. Ah, bollocks to it!

      - england won't have a good team at any level
        
        until the coaching is fully sorted.
        
        we want kids with skill and techniche, as that is what the premiership is about now.
        
        rooney is an exception but even gerard looks scared to take on his man.
