Advantages: experience

Disadvantages: too much experience

Paul Ince must surely have played his last game for England. To be honest, I have no idea why he was first choice anyway. Certainly I would've taken him as a squad player but Dennis Wise has been in much better form as far as I'm concerned.

Ince was practically absent in the Portugal game and didn't contribute much in the Germany game. Apart from one impressive tackle he spent his time running round like a headless chicken. In the final game against Romania he failed to do his job well, ie win possession and although he won the penalty, Gary Lineker was right - Ince was jammy,he was never going to score.

The only thing that has improved about his game as far as I can see is the reduction in the number of tackles he goes into with his studs raised. That's something that used to have me jumping out of my seat, screaming at the refs to punish. He doesn't do it any more. Or maybe that's because he doesn't tackle as much? :)
