[Albion] England squad for Nations League

[Hugo Rune]

Dier starts as a CB tonight.

So I guess he’s a better central defender then Dunk according to Southgate.

Looking at the squad....

After Mings car crash of a season and Keane’s limitations at international level, I’d prefer Dier (although I think that Coady is better than all three).

Maybe Southgate needs glasses?

Anyone else just not bothered about all this these days?

I rarely get worked up about friendly matches; same with the Albion game today. It’s an opportunity to stretch the legs and try things out but that’s all.

No VAR robbed England of an early opener.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

So I assume England will be able to wear a poppy on the shirt in Nov now?

This Knee stuff needs to stop

Not that you should need it facing a country with 300 000 people... but similar things did happen

And there is no stat, metric, form chart or independent analyst who could justify Pickford starting ahead of Pope.

But Southgate has his pet favourites

Pope's distribution is poor.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Really poor decision by the officials to rule out Kane's goal.

I think they thought he had to be offside to have been able to score such a goal, but they are wrong because he is that good.

True.

But that was an absolutely shocking decision. Yes we should win, but not if we have perfectly good goals disallowed.

yeah **** equality, right?

As I have said before, you need to have set rules.

should be a blanket ban on anything political or you let everything go.

Iceland have got results against a lot of good sides the last few years.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

If you think equality is a political statement you need to change your politics. It is NOT political it is basic humanity and common sense.

Sure, what do we also allow?

The rule is in place for a reason

Poppies are not political either, but they are banned.

Riveting stuff so far against the mighty Iceland, wonder if Kerry Katona still shops there?

 

[vagabond]

Anyone else half want Iceland to get a goal and make it interesting?

 

[Mayonaise]

God this is dull....

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

God this is dull....

Can't be right.

The two pundits spent twenty or thirty minutes prior to the game telling us how exciting our team is and how wonderful (that palace tosser) southgate is. Surely this is amazing football.

 

[Razzoo]

Iceland are looking dogged, determined and well organised.

 

[vagabond]

How does Ward Prowse get ahead of Grealish?

Hope to see him in 2nd half along with Greenwood.

So dull.

I fell hook, line and sinker for the Talkshite hyperbole this week about the world class genius of our squad and brilliant coach.
