It's just like playing Brazil…
Not a great debut for James Tomkins in Team GB's friendly against Brazil. Tomka was taken off at half-time and looked uneasy in his new partnership with Micah Richards. The pair were often exposed by the quick-thinking of Neymar and co though the whole side played poorly. The other games should be easier though and hopefully James will return to the Premiership a better player for the experience of tournament football.

It wasn't easy viewing, but I was annoyed with the way Tomka was scapegoated, and hooked at half-time, when Richards gave away a ridiculous penalty (that should have been a red card) and looked just as bad. But he is the over-age player Pearce picked ahead of Beckham, so he has to stick with him...
There won't be many better attacks in the Prem this season, at least.
Yes, won't do his confidence much good going off at half-time...
