No-one bends it like Beckham

Estonia 0 England 3 (Cole, Crouch, Owen)

I'm not gonna write an awful lot on this game tonight, as quite frankly I can't be bothered! I will make a few points though:

Joe Cole - good individual skill, great goal.



Becks - if he had gone off when he injured his ankle, I really don't think we would have scored the next two. His pin-point accurate curling passes are just sublime. No-one else bends it like Beckham and surely this is what England have been missing. I'd like to see him stay and reach a century of caps but it will be difficult when he's playing for LA Galaxy.

The game was not exactly sintilating but I suppose the 3 points was the main aim. I wish England would play at the same pace as the Premiership.

I hope all the lads enjoy their holidays now tonight's job has been done. Qualifiers resume in September.
