[Football] England v Greece match thread

[crodonilson]

Chorus of boo's??

Seems harsh. On the plus side Dave at the Ship has dressed up as Olivia Newton John in homage to tonight's opponents.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Get Potter in.

 

[Hamilton]

Don’t think Potter wants it. Chalice of poison.

I think Graham thinks there’s more to life than football. And he’s right.

Is there a game on tonight?

 

[Zeberdi]

Lee Carsley can fùck off. This is absolute dog shit.

Sort it out, FFS, you bald prick.

Not sure Carsely is responsible for Pickford’s moronic decisions or failing to convert the few chances created.

I don’t understand. We all gave Southgate shit for his negative football despite the players at his disposal? Lee has pretty much done what the public were asking and now he’s shit?

Yes it hasn’t worked but what do you want?

Goals against a side over 40 places below?

Get Potter in.

To coach the last ounce of attacking flair and intensity out of this talented squad?

Potter would be obsessed by ball retention to beat the opposition on possession stats alone.

Teams like Greece would score on the break and get everyone behind the ball.

Ian Wright could be talking about Albion’s 90 minutes of PL football up to half time on Sunday. An ineffective press, meaning that the FB’s were left out of position way up field, in this case Greece knew exactly what they were doing in counter attacking into an empty half.

 

[Vin]

LC will probably get the job as another one who will toe the line.

 

[Durlston]

Careful …. Potter in reserve.

I'd take Potter in a heartbeat.

I've seen some bad tactics but that first half would have seen Gareth Southgate absolutely crucified. It's not working. It was evident after 25 minutes, Guinness Boy.

Substitutions needed quickly because England will run out of ideas under this clown.

 

[Hamilton]

I think we should stop caring about international football and throw caution to the wind.

Stop trying to win and just start playing rock n roll champagne football.

Start enjoying the game again.

He picked him

 

[indy3050]

Goals against a side over 40 places below?

So what would YOU do?

 

[Durlston]

The Greeks can defend in their sleep. It's in their DNA.

 

[Is it PotG?]

So what would YOU do?

I do my job and get paid for it, I'm not a manager of a national side.
I wouldn't text Carsley and ask him to sort an issue with my team.
With our 'world' class players don't you think we should be doing better?

 

[oldboyroy]

Oh dear

[LamieRobertson]

Well the HT team talk has been beneficial

Substitutions needed quickly because England will run out of ideas under this clown.

Too many selfish creatives in the same team …. Gordon, Foden, Palmer, Bellingham. Taking long range pot shots when clearly marked, silly jinky dribbles trying to beat 3 or 4 Greeks. We just need Grealish to complete the set.

Not a proper football team with people doing the hard yards.

Carsley got carried away …. kid in a sweet shop.
