Not much considering how crap English players are. I mean, look how crap France were at the Euros. Then remember how they completely dominated England and looked world class a couple of months ago. England in Euro 2008 would have been embarrasing, regardless of who was managing them.

The problem is that the tempo of international games is much slower and tends to reward technical players or team that are good from set pieces. Neither of these are really England's strongpoints.
I'm mystified at how uncohesive spain have been in most majour tournaments until this one, as they theoretically are well suited to the style (guess they could be a bit taller in general, though). </BLOCKQUOTE>
russia play high tempo football and it seems to be working for them, semis of the euros and uefa cup winners
