"Tunisia is at the level England aspire to be"
Day 5: Sweden vs South Korea, Belgium vs Panama and Tunisia vs England (19H00)
- Thread starter K2K
- Start date
Apart from Lineker, Jenas and Ferdinand.
Alli is clearly fecked why hasn’t he been subbed yet?
Mexico say hi.
Dont get why a Colombian is reffing this game. A potential opponent of England in the next round
The people who complain about this don't complain about Spanish, Dutch or French commentators being biased. Every countries commentators are biased.
You've whined more than them throughout the thread
Michael Caley on Twitter, he ran it for the first half. Usually follow his stats as I think he's one of the main ones with the system
Alli and Sterling off for Rashford and Welbeck.
That’s true. England totally have the ability to do really well, it makes me happy I’m Scottish so we get our disappointment out the way early. We’re balls. England aren’t but just never quite deliver.
It sounds like you hate England more than you love Scotland.
We've not got going 2nd half
What is with this obsession of constantly involving your keeper like he's Neuer, he's not Neuer, he cannot pass, it's not modern or tactical it's a cheap way of avoiding responsibility.
Who has said that? From what I have seen it's been quite the opposite.
Didn't catch the first half. Have I missed anything?
It's ridiculous the lengths people go on here to moan about England.
Bring Rashford on.
When was this?They didnt though. Saying they played well is not saying they are the best.
But those nations doesn't have neutral viewers funding their channel.
There's millions out there who just want to watch a game of football, they can be biased but not overly so that it effects their punditry of the game
You expect unbiased commentary during those games though. Which is why England games are so entertaining - the veil of professionalism disappears and you're left with Lineker's conspiracy theories.
Why is Alli still on ffs
Not at all. I can just accept that Scotland aren’t very good at football and we inevitably will cock something up. It hurts, but doesn’t mean I don’t love Scotland.
You’re easy to wind up.
Anyone can be a potential opponent the only way to avoid it is having a Chilean, Italian, Dutch or American ref.
This game is finishing 1-1.
We need rashfoirds directness here, not sterlings faffing about
England letting Tunisia be pretty comfortable in this 2nd half. By the end of this one England will be lucky to escape with a point.
That's a strawman to justify your irrationality.
Henderson is a really negative player isn't he? Always plays it safe.
Sterling off now please
Alli should've come off ages ago, get Sterling and Henderson off too. Rashford, Vardy and Dier all on.
Well mute it or use the no commentary option.
We're looking a bit laboured at the minute. That first 20 minutes are a distant memory.
It's a British channel, as a non brit I have no problem with a bit of bias from them. They are largely fair in their commentary.
Too contested in the final third and slow pedestrian passing, need more one touch stuff to get in behind.
It took twenty minutes for Keown to say England have played the best football of the tournament. Shortly before losing the goal. Logan and Jenas said it at half time. We’ll forget about Mexico outplaying Germany, or some of the football on Friday.
From playing like Barca earlier, England are playing like United now.
Sterling has been shit. And it feels like Alli has barely touched the ball.
Christ sake take fecking sterling off. He’s dogshit
Bring on welbeck or rashford
Bring on welbeck or rashford
Goal incoming
What did Southgate tell them in the break ?
England look shadows of the first half. Movement has stopped and no urgency at all.
