The So, How have you been? Yeah, really good. I even enjoyed some of the international football, which is not something I expected to say.

You what? Heresi.

I know yeah. England were really fun in that first game against Germany.

What wasn't it a strange feeling to be watching England and quite enjoying it and then you got United really dull.

There's something wrong with this picture.

There really is, but of course there were big talking points which kind of directly relate to United situation at the moment in that

and I don't mean this to have a pop at our captain

but England were certainly much more fluid and exciting up front

and I think it would be really terrible decision to

start Rooney ahead of Harry Kane in the summer. Well yeah I mean I suppose they can

play Rooney in a slightly deeper role but then you're

starting him ahead of other players particularly Delhi alley who Ferguson said was

better than any young midfielder he'd seen since Paul Gascoin which people

somehow managed to take as a slight on Paul Sculls,

but I suspect Paul Sculls having not been a midfielder at that age might have played into that.

Yeah, no, I think so. Could sign him, of course, you know, three years ago. Milton Keynes

don's so missed out there. Looks a fine player as to a number of the other young

England players say yeah it's quite a strange experience to be watching

England and they're quite exciting although they put it right at Wembley against Holland in what was not a great performance.

No that was a slightly odd one, wasn't it?

It was a kind of reversion to type really.

James Milner being the captain was perfectly emblematic of that performance, really.
