He likes potatoes....he is Irish
Internationals March (Euro Qualifiers)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
That's a Premier League tackle.
I think they have their hopes on Vesuvius erupting at half time and the game being abandoned.
Italian right back getting a bit frustrated. Must be up for a booking next
Been saying it for years. Their naitonal pool of players is probably one of the worst in decades.
Rice gets a yellow.
I was going to be smug and say they spelt impossible wrong on the dugouts....but it's in Italian.
That Barella is a whiny little bitch isn’t he.
Referee getting players mixed up. 
7 Italian players in the squads of the 3 champions league teams? That’s awful.
The only time England look ropey is why they pass it backwards, so naturally they feel compelled to do it every other minute.
Wasting time in the first 20 minutes against a shocking Italy side. Never change, Gareth.
Close from Phillips.
Italy look so inferior athletically. England look like world beaters here.
Is it just me or is this a really weird camera angle? Feel like I have no idea who the players are passing to. Also Phillips touches the ball for what feels like the first time all game.
Should have scored!
They are very loose at the back. Didn't expect this.
Got to get that on target, whole goal to aim for.
Why do these players that I'm so jealous of when they play for their club teams turn into such bums for us? Saka looks like Sancho out there.
Ha! The advantage of playing some players who have only started a handful of times this season!
Saka hasn’t settled at all
Saka has been wasteful.
Goodness me England are pretty boring to watch. Hardly ever make a forward pass.
Was worried it was just me thinking that.
Saka offering absolutely nout.
Grealish's work rate is appalling.
And everyone thought Southgate was mad. Guys a genius
Can you say golden generation? Hype will roll in to top gear before the next few tournaments for sure
Fecking Maguire is the picture of composure when he plays for England
Probably the first time all season.
Less pressure.
He's been mildly critical of him this season:
after praising him quite effusively a year or two previously:
It seems a fair cop from what I've seen of Rice. He's very good off-the-ball, but he doesn't seem to have grown as much as he should as a passer and controller. I think the ability is there though. He's doing well tonight.
Saka hasn't been good but it's a shame he's got Walker behind him and not Trippier. Italy are absolutely gash and we should be throwing the kitchen sink at them. Get Phillips off for Foden or another more attacking minded mid.
Thats because your playing 7 at the back
Grealish is a liability, always throwing himself to the floor.
Grealish tries to win fouls too much. Easy one touch pass back to shaw was on there
I've always wondered whether Shaw and Maguire like playing in a back 4 together. A little bit of bickering again there
I don’t think it’s even true anyway, looks same on the ball as he does at United, AKA not great.
That's not funny
Really? Maguire has been good in my opinion.
