Hard pressed to tell the difference between Rashford and Martial at the moment the way both of them saunter around the pitch.
Yes shockingly enough I'd be happy to see England win a major tournament.You would be happy to watch another five games of this? It makes the team very hard to support, for me. I can't see 100% effort being put into the game.
Think you have to remember it is very hot. A win in the first game is a great result.It'll be a deserved win for England. I think they actually played a very good game, but the defense needs sorting a little bit. Croatia are pretty poor and did nothing worthy of note.
End of an era for them really. All their best players are in their 30's and will probably be their last tournament. Rakitic already retired, Modric 35, Perisic 32, Vida 32.croatia aren't anywhere near as good as I thought
You called their response childish after your original post?Childish response. You don't agree that football should be entertaining?
no wonder we were linked with him when ole was struggling last year!1 nil up and looking in control of the game, let's take off the players who can keep the ball. Good thinking Gareth, let's get some pressure on us in the final minutes.
It's a cagey difficult opening match in blazing hot sunshine. It's not a real surprise it's not been hell for leather for 90 minutes.Childish response. You don't agree that football should be entertaining?
It is. You get the odd great game, but the majority, one team does just enough.tournament football is about winning. That’s what matters.
you can pretty much guarantee one at some stage in the tournamentEnough time for a Pickford howler?
Too much flair for GarethSouthgate really isn’t keen on grealish is he? Every England fan in the country wants to see him play.. yet nothing.
We won’t win the tournament playing like this. Croatia are poor.Yes shockingly enough I'd be happy to see England win a major tournament.
This is something I'll never understand.You would be happy to watch another five games of this? It makes the team very hard to support, for me. I can't see 100% effort being put into the game.
What industry is football part of? Entertainment. If something fails to entertain, is it fulfilling its role? No.You called their response childish after your original post?
I don’t think anyone is.Not a fan of Jermaine Jenas.
Inventive way to get some needless Martial slander in here, nice.Hard pressed to tell the difference between Rashford and Martial at the moment the way both of them saunter around the pitch.
Yeah, same here. The only player with an ounce of flair and he’s kept on the bench for an out of form Sterling and Rashford. The current Rashford wouldn’t even start for Norway on merit.Man hates Grealish. Hope that costs him in the end.
I agreeHard pressed to tell the difference between Rashford and Martial at the moment the way both of them saunter around the pitch.
Why on earth did you think that?Here was me thinking England might be exciting to watch. Total borefest.
It's the first game. A load of players got a run out. It'll be job done if it's ends 1-0. There's plenty of time to grow into the tournament.We won’t win the tournament playing like this. Croatia are poor.
