Close up like here it looks good but from a distance it looks naff. It does look much like an 80's and early 90's national side kit.

And wales gifted england their only win

Wales froze, I'd bet on them to beat England if they met again.

How come De Gea looks a cool man mountain for Man U, but a bag of nerves for Spain?

Didn't the media hype the heck out of this England side? (again)

Didn't the bookies make them favourites? (again)

Will we never learn, "best league in the world"?
The premier is the best in the world.......but it is full of spanish, italian, french, uragian

I will admit to being a non-follower , but am interested in knowing on what basis you claim that the Premier league is the best in the world.

On the basis of head to head fixtures between the best Premier League sides and the best sides in other European leagues, it isn't

Totally agreed. It's just been said so much by Sky, and to a lesser extent the BBC that football fans have come to believe it. It's not particularly competitive and rarely chucks up aberrations like Blackburn and Leicester. Same goes for the top 4.

There were a few years where English sides dominated Europe recently, and that may come again with the stupid amount of money now available to entice everyone and their mum, but for now the majority of the best players in the world aren't in the Premier League.

The PL is sold around the world, on the back of thrills and spills and historical links, moreso than any of the other top leagues which can be stultifyingly dull.
Those leagues have higher skill levels, although the PL is played at such a pace, demanded often by the crowd, that even the skilful foreign players end up being reduced to the lowest common denominator.
Some like Silva, Payet and others can still look sublime but others, like de Maria just can't cope.
