The Little Book of England continues Carlton's highly successful series of quotes on or by footballers and their teams. It is a logical step to include the England national team in this series.
Whether it was Brian Clough's legendary dismissal of Poland goalkeeper Jan Tomaszewski, who denied England a place in the 1974 World Cup finals, (He is a clown – Clough was a TV pundit at the time) or impenetrable thoughts of incumbents, such as Glenn Hoddle (You and I have been physically given two hands and two legs and half-decent brains. Some people have not been born like that for a reason; karma is working in another lifetime.), there is something for every England fan.
