England v Germany (and then v Holland)

[The Wizard]

A very refreshing performance from a young team. Great result as well

 

[Eeyore]

But what Hodgson will do is when the boring players like Oxo cube, Rooney, Wiltshire, sturridge, walcott, Milner and Sterling he will play them.
But why when we come from 2-0 down away to Germany and since had Dier, Ali, Barkley, Kane and Vardy we havent given them a sniff and we looked sooo dangerous.
Play this new team Hodgson, these players are young and eager and want to win, way better than the old average cocky players named at beginning.

Always maintained that Hodgson is the perfect fit for England at this time. His record with young teams has always been consistent.

An enthralling international friendly, a great England performance, some superb goals and an away win against the Bosh. What's not to like?

 

[DavePage]

Please make that kind of comment about Brighton when we line up against Burnley on Saturday.

Still thinks we are short of a LB

 

[Triggaaar]

BG. Are you out there.

Don't worry, he'll soon be back to educate us all, like this never happened.

 

[atomised]

Don't worry folks.

I'm sure the man of the hour will surface soon enough.

I'm even more sure that, as usual, he didn't get anything wrong and has in fact been right all along.

Think youre spot on. Im expecting "i know what I said but thats not what I meant by it"

Lol!

 

[LamieRobertson]

I don't see where any direct quotes where he has said Wilshere is guaranteed a place. Merely that he is in contention if fit. He admits he would have to leave one of Dier, Wilshere and Drinkwater out if they are all fit.

I don't know if this is the original source but there's a video on this link where you can listen to what he says.

It sounds very much like he wants to pick Wilshere regardless, but let's not go around spreading falsehoods as to what he actually said. There's too much of that in the world.

Dam u beat me to it

BG has learnt from the the Bong/Rosenior debacle, but has the club?

I'm going for:-

"Well that only worked when Roy played the team I would have started with".

 

[Eeyore]

Kane and Vardy worked well together. I hope Hodgson goes with those two up front.

I'm coming round to that. I've been firmly in the Rooney camp. Although I would still take him with those two.

I like Kane because he is a classic English striker in the Lineker mold. And they always score goals. I don't know much about Vardy, except that he is in a halcyon era.

Thank you for posting this, I expect Rooney to wander in to the squad come what may but I doubt Wilshere could wander anywhere, even if he wanted to.

Very poor and untried England team tonight

Please, please, please start predicting this of a Brighton line up for the remainder of the season!

 

[Gullflyinghigh]

"Well that only worked when Roy played the team I would have started with".

Could go with a thoroughly modern approach;

'I was hacked'

 

[Triggaaar]

I like Kane because he is a classic English striker in the Lineker mold.

Lineker was an amazing finisher. Is it just my old head going soft, or is Kane better at taking on players and creating chances?

 

[dangull]

Everybody getting excited, like this would happen in a world cup quarter final.

Germany only play well when it matters. Republic of Ireland beat them recently.

Sheesh, Ben's been mucking about with my keyboard again

Very poor and untried England team tonight

Butland
Clyne.. Smalling....Cahill,.... Rose
Henderson...Dier
Wellbeck....Alli...Lallana
Kane​

Absolute gold from you BG! But I'm surprised you were quite so negative about a team fielding no less than 4 (four) players from your beloved Spurs?
