England to win 4-0.
You heard it here first.

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Walkers another one. Past it these days.. AWB would be right to be annoyed not being called up when on form he is prob the second best English right back? Can't think on actual form of many better

I would say it's a toss up between Livramento and AWB. I don't think Walker should be part of the equation any more, that ship has sailed.

They’d best get a wriggle on.

On form that's prob the top 2 right now..

That team isn't really form tho is it.. I mean where is Gordon on the left over rashford who's showed up for 3 months of a season

 

[Lord Tyrion]

I wouldn't mind this Broja fella being part of the Everton team. We could do with someone like him................

 

[Billysboots]

This game desperately needs someone else to launch a paper airplane towards the pitch.

 

[Swango1980]

Very nice by Kane

 

[Billysboots]

That’s a well taken goal. Reckon it might just have given @Golfmmad a stay of execution.

 

[Swango1980]

Ooooooo, Henderson is coming on

 

[Don Barzini]

Ooooooo, Henderson is coming on

Brilliant

 

[Billysboots]

Ooooooo, Henderson is coming on

To be fair, he’s been playing consistently well at the highest level for the last couple of years.

Oh. Hang on a sec.

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Ooooooo, Henderson is coming on

Good chance to learn what he can do

 

[Arthur Wedge]

Have a feeling that not everyone is getting behind Henderson

 

[Slime]

Just utter rubbish.

 

[Swango1980]

Pickford did his job. Clean sheet

 

[Golfmmad]

Just utter rubbish.

We must have watched a different game.
OK it wasn't a great performance but a good one.
Players that stood out: Bellingham, Burn, Konte, Lewis Skelly, Rice and of course Kane with a great goal. Liked the high press and when Albania tried to come out England made it hard for them.
I thought our defence looked solid and not really under threat.
And hey, we win 2 nil!
Also, I'm so relieved I'm not going to get my first Infraction.

 

[clubchamp98]

Did you mean to say best English wide player ?

And even then better than Gordon and Rogers and CHO ?

We’re watching England??

Yes

Classic World Cup Qualifier where one team sees leaving with a 0-2 defeat as a success!

Bus Parked zzzzz. That's why Iinternational Qualifiers are often awful.

But, would like to have seen wide players taking defenders on rather than passing back inside so often. But that's this old winger talking!

But there you go. The Teutonic efficiency everyone craved 30 years ago!

Whatever the result, the Press will moan about it.

I did say It could be a test and it certainly was. 2-0 is not a bad result by any stretch of the imagination. For me there was a few positives. But and it is a massive but. It was kinda the same old same old. I liked the balance between the old and the young and we could have all put someone else in for someone else. But for me there was a glaring opportunity missed again.
The Bellingham pass highlighted it. There was not enough balls played forward from the midfielders, and the very man that Could have provided them passes was sent home to Nottingham and watched the game at home.

 

[Arthur Wedge]

so England have a new Gerrard vs Lampard


Foden vs Bellingham

You cant shoehorn them all in so someone needs to miss out and right now it should be Foden
