Best England performance you've ever seen

[Billy Dean]

If we are talking purely about "performance" and not the final result, I think our performances against the Germans in '90 and '96 were right up there. IMO both games involved the 2 best teams in those tournaments and, arguably, England were the better side in both games and should've won them both.

So close yet so far... If Shilton didn't wear lead lined boots we may just have won against the Germans in 90 and probly won the WC.

Still gutted over that!

Yeah we were the better side in that game although Germany had been the better team throughout the tournament. If Waddle's shot in ET had gone a fraction inside the post...

Heartbreaker that one.

It's funny that I can recall most moments from that game yet struggle with remembering things from the Everton match last week!

Rooney v Croatia at Euro 2004. Outrageous performance for an 18 year old.

Was at that game.. The England v France was memorable even for the wrong reasons... 1 nil up after 90 mins... 2-1 down after 93 mins! Zidane free kick and a Gerrard slip up!

I can't remember too much (I was 9) but I do remember it was the 1st time I cried because of football.

3-2 vs Croatia - Wally with the Brolly game. Proper England, that. Absolutely brilliant.

Euro '96 quarter finals v Spain was a good one.

Either the 4-1 over Holland or the 5-1 over Germany
