Analysis: England's World Cup dream is all but over after another disappointing defeat. Just as they did against Italy, England dominated possession for long periods of times but were unable to find the finishing touches. Liverpool striker Luis Suarez gained revenge on the English Media by sinking the English with two goals and proving why he is one of the best players in the world. When he is in this kind of form there just is no stopping him. Phil Jagielka struggled to handle Suarez and has to take the blame on both the goals. He didn't have a strong showing against Italy either so I believe that most of the blame should go on him. However, that is not to say the strikers played well either. Danny Sturridge was poor and although Wayne Rooney got his goal, he should have had two or three more.
