Group F will be worth a watch.

Hey Pogue, let me first say that I've been reading your posts for a long time and I absolutely love hearing your opinion on United, General Forums, et al. I'm glad you're back.So will Allardyce be dropping Smalling next?
Please let me know your bright spot.Bull shit. He dribbles and shows some pace against a tired defender battling for a point.
Good cameo, but the only bright spot and motm? You're pushing it.
Well that's nice of you to say that.Hey Pogue, let me first say that I've been reading your posts for a long time and I absolutely love hearing your opinion on United, General Forums, et al. I'm glad you're back.
No, I don't think Sam would omit Chris. Dropped from the starting XI, probably.
On Rashford's omission - it's a good decision in my opinion. Let him get some decent experience under his belt, rather than 20 minute cameos, however good they may be.
What a surprise, a teenager playing for the U21s.
Dier has to count as a bright spot. At least if the benchmark is a couple of minutes worth of Rash.Please let me know your bright spot.
Harts goalkeeping?
Rooneys touch?
No player being able to even make 10 yard passes?
Harry Kane's finishing?
Sterlings dribbling into nowhere?
Arguably got called up too soon anyway. Vardy and Kane were on fire and Rooneys england form was brilliant. Plus sturridge. He'd only played about 15 senior games...That's harsh imo. It's been two games into the PL season ffs, he will get tons of playtime in the coming weeks. Such a black and white view from England.
Hart isn't playing either and won't be dropped I guess.
At least he be starting games, but then he has picked Joe Hart
1) Hart has played against Steaua Bucharest.No big really, it might be better for Rashford long-term, but really, England don't have a player like Rashford.
Pretty funny Sam still Hart though, even though he's not playing and about to be sold
Eh?Bit annoying for him with him being England's best player. But he'll get plenty more chances.
Rashford has barely played for england, in fact he's barely played senior football in general and is not helped by the fact that England has other good options. Its not at all comparable to dropping an experienced long serving NT player irrespective of what is going on at their club.Hart isn't playing either and won't be dropped I guess.
Fun thing is, when Milik wasn't playing at Leverkusen and Augsburg or struggled/didn't play at Ajax, our coach Nawałka still kept calling him up for national duties, played him and then it all repaid as Milik was one of our best players during qualifiers.
It's probably no biggie and understandable and all, Marcus will get called up once he gets some gametime but still, sometimes you just trust in a player, take a gamble and it repays.
Added his competion isn't even great. One of his biggest rivals still hasn't played for months due to injury.He's barely played for england, in fact he's barely played senior football in general at a time when England has other good options. Its not at all comparable to dropping an experienced long serving NT player irrespective of what is going on in your club.
Nothing wrong with this imo, he's got all the time ahead of him to step back up.
Correctat people comparing this with Hart's situation.
It's perfectly reasonable and this will do Rashford more good than warming the bench in the senior squad. Fair call by Big Sam and his comments are spot on as well.
