The Footie Thread

[Hobbit]

Been watching Kanes movement he’s everywhere except where he should be.
He’s on the left wing crossing to that well known powerhouse in the air Saka.
Defenders pushed out after the free kick but Kanes behind Pickford
Just don’t get it.

Much better performance but we need goals while we’re on top.

Beg to differ. Saw him track back and get the ball twice just in front of the midfielders, lay it off to Saka(?) both times and immediately go back up front.

Re the penalty I found it an odd one, if the defender don’t go to block the shot. You would sub him. I think he went for the ball and not trying to block the shot 2-3 ft away. If he does and Kane kicks his foot/ studs you can hardly say it’s a penalty. His studs up didn’t help his cause. Was that why he was booked re studs up?

It’s why you can’t challenge a keeper as he kicks the ball from his hands.
It’s obvious he’s going to follow through.
I think it’s the height of the challenge and he dosnt get anything on the ball.

The ref said “ no” but VAR is the boss.

This is what I was just saying to Missis T, problem is, if they press and go long does VVD have pace if a ball is played over the top. Come what May Spain have been fantastic in the press.
Shaw hopefully will give more balance.

VVD will outpace Kane.

You’re entitled to your opinion .
But he’s getting in the way of Foden and Bellingham in mine.

 

[Captainron]

Kane is not in the right places.

 

[Tashyboy]

I know he has scored, but Kane is killing me.

 

[BrianM]

I actually think Watkins would suit this game, but he’ll not take off Kane

 

[Captainron]

Put a proper stiker on. Someone who will stay up there and make runs.

 

[PaulMdj]

I’d take Kane off for Toney or Watkins, or Walker off for Palmer or TAA

 

[SteveW86]

That’s nit how this thread works .

Once the game gets to 60 mins we can talk about how Kane is everywhere but where he should be

Crack on lads

 

[Orikoru]

I'm bored now. First half was good.

 

[PaulMdj]

Reverting to the first few games here!! Need to shake it up!

 

[Lord Tyrion]

I'm bored now. First half was good.

We need a fresh face / legs. Spark us into life again.

 

[larmen]

Has anyone figured out what the Dutch tactics are? Lose the ball, pull back and hope for a counter?

 

[PaulMdj]

I’d take Kane off for Toney or Watkins, or Walker off for Palmer or TAA

Maybe Bellingham off for Palmer!

 

[Piece]

Koeman changed tactics after HT to address the first half. Need to see something now from Gareth to win the game.

 

[Arthur Wedge]

Why has he not made any changes ?

Holland have got back into the game and got a lot of control

 

[Pin-seeker]

I’d take Kane off for Toney or Watkins, or Walker off for Palmer or TAA

Walker for Palmer ??

I missed the whole of the first half. I was down the pub with wifey. From what I’ve seen in the second half I wish I had stayed there.
