England Crash Out

What a Sigh! Please see today's ESPN headlines for this news as follows:
"England's Euro 2008 dreams - and quite possibly Steve McClaren's job - were washed away in the Wembley rain despite a thrilling David Beckham-inspired comeback."
In front of over 80,000 fans, the new and inexperienced English goal keepers "Scott Carson" gave two goals to Croatia within the first 15 minutes. It was the first and most serious mistake.
Every time when Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard are both on the midfield then greatly hindered the performance of the whole team. We witnessed again in this crucial game.
It is absolutely a disaster for England national team, and even the whole United Britain as all of their 4 teams stopped before entering into the final round of Euro 2008. When the Englishmen cannot make it for only a Euro game, how they can even talk about their World Cup Dream?
I hope this is again a very good lesson for the "star"-players to think deeply: Why their performance is so bad (even only resulted in 3rd ranking with the same points as Israel)? On the other hand, their salaries is unbelievably high?
Like Slaven Bilic (Croatia Boss) said "We proved we're a better team than England". As one of the world giant with long long history on football as England, today it is really shameful when a small country like Croatia showed his saying is correct!
