I thought Parker played well.
Young was the disappointment for me.
Good win none the less! Another will do nicely

What about Rooney, do you think the youngster will get a game...
There may be a case of sticking with Welbeck & Carroll and then bringing Rooney on as a sub with 30 mins to go and ease him in gently to the tournament.

He will start the game.
Rooney's got to start... best player in the squad. I thought Terry was very poor last night. I do rate him as a centre-back, but he needs a mobile partner and Lescott isn't quick enough... as a pair they're too short of pace and get exposed much too easily. For that reason I'd rather see Jagielka and Lescott together. Walcott's too unpredictable. Awesome last night, but I'd like to see him kept in that "impact" sub role. Wellbeck, Young and Rooney upfront could be awesome. I reckon Roy will keep Milner on the right. I rate Parker, he just needs to sit back and not push up too much as he can get caught out with his lack of pace. Young coming in from the left and Gerrard through the middle can support the strikers.
Impressed with Carrolls industry. If other midfielders played with the determination of Parker we would not have suffered as we did. Back four hopeless. I mean, leaking 2 set piece goals!!! Cole a good distraction that gave room on the right for Walcott when he finally came on. Agree, he is ideal as an impact player when defences are worn down. Welbeck....taking his chances well but will remain an understudy.
I don't really like football!!
No chance.. Rooney will come on pent up and do something stupid.. he just games.
Parker is typical english.. works hard.. tries hard.. looks like he puts a shift in.. too much running around like a headless chicken chasing down balls which shouldn't be chased down.. then being out of position..
Terry's legs have gone. But there is no talker in there, Rio is it for United, he's gone, Hart is too quiet, Terry isn't talking. That needs sorting, both goals, were awful. If we don't win the group Spain will rip us apart..
Young is hit and miss, he does dissapear in games. The problem is we have him and walcott and both do that. That's why Milner is there, to put a shift in..
I'm not overly happy, I think we were lucky yesterday and could have been on our way out..
Welbeck clearly meant it.
young doesn't deserve to play in the next game after 2 disgraceful showings thus far
and tonight...my 2nd nation and hosts Poland to kick some Czech ass, Isc Polska, Lewandowski zwyciezca
I can't understand the people who get stuck in to Young.
He has been England's most consistent player FOR ENGLAND over the last 12 months and he actually had a decent game against France where we were starved of possession and he was playing in the Rooney position.
He wasn't at all the worst player on the pitch for us against Sweden. I felt that our central defenders were poor, I felt that Cole wasn't giving anything going forward which meant that Young was perhaps lacking a little support down the left.
Hang him for one below par game eh?
Just as we are going to get Rooney back - Rooney, Young, Welbeck and Valencia produced some breathtaking attacking football this year and the only thing that cost Man Utd the title in the end were defensive blunders and a few early season gaffs as the new keeper settled in.
They were fantastic going forward.
How many have said that by the time Rooney came back, we could be on our way home already? Well we aren't. We now have some match winners in Rooney, Young and Welbeck - perhaps even Gerrard might find some of his old sparkle.
So we have 3 out of 4 - and the Ox on the right and I think we can score against any team.
I am quietly confident that we might actually do well in this tournament, but the only way it will happen is if these key players do the business and our stoppers can start doing there job and not making the school boy errors that let Sweden bag 2 goals.
