This guy got it right!
Quote:
In the same paper, Jeff Powell - who greeted Eriksson's appointment with the words 'we've sold our birthright down the fjord to a nation of seven million skiers and hammer throwers who spend half their lives in darkness' - sharpened his axe for a farewell blow.
'The most disgracefully unprepared team in England's World Cup history was... captained by a narcissist so obsessed with himself that when the inevitable humiliation came, he cried for himself, not his country,' he declared.
David Beckham, the leader of the supposed 'golden generation', stepped down as captain on Sunday after almost six years in the job.

Would agree with the 2nd/3rd paragraph.
The 1st is the usual "we used to rule the world" arrogant mentality.

1st is english arrogance
2nd :I think the slagging he's giving Beckham has nothing to do with his professional career. Its an asshole comment.
3rd: is just stating fact
