		<description><![CDATA[Thanks guys.

The formation could be interpretated another of different ways, I certainly thought Rooney spent enough time deep for it to be regarded as 4-2-3-1, but that might be because of Gerrard&#039;s movement centrally.

When England didn&#039;t have the ball, it was much for like a 4-4-2, Rooney and Crouch seemed to come closer and Walcott and Gerrard went wide to help the full backs.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Good article, I disagree with everyone&#039;s initial thoughts on the formation however. It looked very much like a 4-4-2 or a 4-4-1-1 to me.

While Rooney drops deep to link up very often, he was never actually part of the midfield 5.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Good piece mate.

Thought England were much better in the second half, purely because how the team was set out.

In the first half the centre of midfield was far too congested. Gerrard wanted to come in from the left and both Crouch and Rooney came deep looking for possession. Meaning that it was just a little bit of a mess.

Credit Capello though, he changed it round well in my opinion. Gerrard and Milner looked far more at home after alternating positions. In addition Rooney and Defoe played further up the pitch than the previous Crouch/Rooney combination, helping to stretch out the play.

Impressed with both Walcott and Lennon, although the latter looks like the more acomplished option.]]></description>
