Blackburn's Olsson has no respect for England U21 stars

Blackburn Rovers's Sweden U21 defender Martin Olsson has respect for none of England U21's players.

He said: "I'm familiar with English football. I have played there for four years now and have played against many of the players in England's team.

"But who do I most respect in the English team? No one. I think we have players that are at least as good as them. Because they have players in great teams it doesn't mean that they will smash us 5-0 or so.

"We have a great chance of getting to the final and going all the way. The way Marcus has played so far he can win the match on his own."
