Prior is injured and Read is just about the best captain on the circuit. Just for three matches.

but surely look to the future and read isn't as good with the bat has to be buttler if anyone is to come in mind id prefer him to bairstow who must be in with a shot
 
so the bowlers cant bowl on green tops and the batsmen cant play the short ball. Tough to see were are next win wil come from given that the west indies have 2/3 90mph bowlers and in Roach a good exponent of the short ball
 
as expected. the team is playing in a manner of no leadership. it starts with moores, a classic example of having all the gear but no idea. it goes on to cook, who despite being totally found out, actually increased his power this summer. it goes on to our four senior players, bell, gets out to soft dismissals constantly, prior who is over the hill now and on to anderson and broad, who either dont listen to advice or have simply been ground down

this is a classic moores international side. hate it, said it before he came in but this man should be miles away from the england team

If the bowlers had done their job in either innings, the game would be over by now. Anderson and Broad have been awful in this test. Awful

True, it's like they are not interested, stems from the Management. All is now well in the camp I suspect.....still.

Fortunately the WIndies are so skint they will look to prepare 5 day dead beds in the hope our piss heads send the takings through the roof.

Not just Moores is it, at the end of the day it is down to the 11 players on the pitch, and the senior players just aren't performing.

Can see all these bad shots, but they are going to lose this match mainly because Broad and Anderson were absolutely awful on the last day

moores is shit but its not his fault for everything
 
Captain cant bat and the captain cant field place. He also has the personality of a fax machine. Not very encouraging for the rest like.

How many kids do you want? Half the team are new already.

Just throwing an option out there to captain the side. I would have given the job to Prior short term, but he's not fit so I'm bringing in a clone.
