My god this has been dreadful.

I can’t catch a fecking break as a football fan at the moment. Thought I’d get a reprieve this week.

What the feck are the commentators on about?

"No reason to stop to attack even though it's a head injury cos the attack was that far advanced"

"Not a foul, so can't stop the match"

It's a head injury you knobheads.

What does Jordan Henderson do for England? He’s only in for his attitude.

So wait you wanted the ref to stop the play at that moment? :lol:

Job of the central midfielders to track the runners and stop the pullbacks--he was left with acres of space.

We better not buy Rice.

If he didn’t play for Liverpool he’d be nowhere near the team.

Was a terrible team selection from the start which has not been helped by most of the team playing in second gear assuming they would win.

Thats why Portugal will never win a WC, they don’t have the mentality, they are winning so they let the other team play they don’t know how to kill a game. They should learn from the Germans to kill games ...hello Portugal- hello Brazil

I couldn't give a shit, but there has to be consistency with head injuries. If someone goes down with a serious head injury you want the game to just continue till the ball goes out?

Commentators talking out their arses is my main point though. They just agree with whatever refs do and try to throw in as many clichés and overused phrases as they can

I wish I was late 30s:(

There was a time when we were so poor that it was rare to see a Utd player in the England squad. I only used to watch England to see Pancho Pearson.
Mind you Liverpool and a couple of others were so dominant that it was no surprise
The side was crammed full of internationals. The Republic, Northern Ireland, Scotland...

Beaten by a 30 year old making his debut. I remember that guy playing a few years in the Norwegian league. Smart movement in the box, though not very impressive defending leaving him that open.

I'll never understand when play is stopped in injury time why it's never really added back on. Game was stopped for almost 90 seconds in injury time then, only 30 added on.

It's a disgrace and one of the worst things wrong with football. I want the clock to stop. Fed up of Ref's just bascally making up Injury time as they go.
