I have not watched every game and not much nations league, but in these qualifers they have looked really good to me. Great flow and linkup play.
Jesus.Werner epic miss vs Macedonia
And he used to be married to Natalie Sawyer. There's almost nothing likeable about him.
The front players are quality sure but behind that is a bunch of over rated dross mostly. Very, very average/terrible central midfield (the most important part of the pitch) with average to poor central defenders. Ok full backs but nothing special and a fecking shocking goalkeeper.
I was enjoying the amount of offside he was in prior to the pass where he was actually waiting for a pass
Kane constantly dropping deep is infuriating.
Turkey are my outsider pick.
Maguire should've conceded a penalty, so I think it's only fair to say that both defenders redeemed themselves by combining for the winner.
Maybe they looked good vs Netherlands, but then got 1 point vs Latvia which is pretty shit.
Southgate is that thick.
With Southgate we will probably have a bunch of old timers back. He's a feckin idiot and picks his favourites, and not based on form. He's a proper dickhead.
Please tell me you don’t think that was handball. Jesus wept.
Wasn’t a pen. Maguire was man of the match, Stones nearly cost England 3 points, Maguire won England the game and is twice the player Stones is.
I'm sure Maguire gave him a long hard look after the hug, making sure he knew he saved his bacon.United beat City again
Still won't be enough to sack Low. I don't care if he himself has said he'll leave after the Euros, that moron needs to be out now!Infamous win for North Macedonia over Germany.
He's been on the bench all three games, came on in all and looked absolute trash, even missed a good 1-on-1 chance against Romania. Never seen him this bad in front of goal.
You mean North Macedonia?
Ok full backs? Come on. Shaw and TAA, if both are on form, are as good as any full back pair in the world (IMO the best pair on paper). Pickford is shite yeah, but he shouldn't be starting or in the squad at all. Again, selection issues, Henderson and Pope are both very good keepers. Henderson is far from a terrible midfielder. Phillips is decent, Rice is good and young (but a defensive mid so a pair with Henderson can be too 1 dimensional), Mount and Maddison are both very good midfielders who could work in a 3 along with Grealish being the most advanced mid. Bellingham is one of the most promising midfielders around. Foden as depth to Grealish and adding creativity in a midfield 3. Loads of options, up to a manager to pick the right mix and get them to play together. But the quality is there.
What a load of bollocks.
It's great how football spans international boundaries. You can feel the fan angst all the way from Deutschland.
I see what you're doing there.
Who needs articulate anyway?You are listing attacking midfielders mostly - central midfield is absolute shite for England - Henderson, Phillips, Rice are all very average and none are creative at all. Shaw and Walker are the best full-backs for England and are ok but nothing amazing, good enough though. TAA has been fecking dreadful all year and is miles off right now. England is stacked with some very talented attacking midfielders and attackers but behind them the quality is seriously lacking.
Thats up there with some of the biggest shocks
