[Football] England v Kosovo 7.45 tonight @ St Mary's (capacity 32,505)

[the right footed denilson]

Lovely finish Jaydon. Boy is a talent.
World class.

 

[PoG]

It's coming home.

 

[Sorrel]

I guess that means that Kosovo are the fastest ever country to score against England if we start at the first minute of the first match they played against us.

 

[Icy Gull]

Lovely finish Jaydon. Boy is a talent.
World class.

There is just the one player in this match who looks world class

 

[Blackadder]

Think we might win this match.

Kosovo doing an Albion vs City

 

[Weststander]

The Kosovo coach has copied GP’s tactics at the Etihad .... going toe-to-toe in a pure footballing contest against far superior players, pushing upfield.

Always gives the same outcome.

 

[drew]

Think we might win this match.

One more and I'd be inclined to agree!!

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

If Brazil don't consider him their best player and they don't. I don't see why we should either, I agree.

Maradona won leagues and world cups pretty much on his own.

Pele didn’t venture out of the America’s

 

[the right footed denilson]

Save that first 30 seconds they do not look that impressive at all. 5-1.

At half time

 

[Sorrel]

Think we might win this match.

If we don't it's going to be an interesting second second half.

 

[Weststander]

Kosovo doing an Albion vs City

Great minds.

 

[banjo]

We can play a few youngsters second half.

 

[Saunders]

The Kosovo coach has copied GP’s tactics at the Etihad .... going toe-to-toe in a pure footballing contest against far superior players, pushing upfield.

Always gives the same outcome.

They could have sat back and defended like Bulgaria did, that worked well. Playing like this every game has enabled them to get to where they are now.

 

[LVGull]

Messi and Ronaldo have warped the standard of world class.

They are in the top 3 players of all time

Who is the other?

 

[Stat Brother]

I’m not sure how Kane could be blamed for spurs defeats....

I think that's the point Bold is making.

Nobody is doubting Kane's class.
He's clearly England's best (classiest) striker.
He has been for a while.
He will be for sometime going forward.

I will even go so far as to say were he to sign for the Albion even we would struggle to make him shitehouse.
Praise doesn't get much higher than that.


He has plenty of time and games ahead of him where he can be that difference, the player that carries a team on his back, to greatness.
If he does all the 'world class' plaudits will be well earned and rightly deserved.

But he's got to do it first.

Shall I post you Murray in the goal charts for the last 2 seasons for continued evidence of his inclusion?

Blimey I wouldn't want to be stood next to you, in the trenches.

 

[the right footed denilson]

Awful, awful defending from Kosovo. So, so naive.
Very strong from most of our boys though. Front three are frightening, with Rashford around too, Hudson-Odoi stil to get fit, bodes very well.
Let's get Maddison out there now, this is too easy for Barkley so would be good to give the kid a decent run-out.

 

[Eeyore]

Who is the other?

Maradona, I'm guessing.

But sometimes folk forget that defenders and keepers are world class too.

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

Who is the other?

Now now, surely you've not forgotten SE20's finest?

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Maradona, I'm guessing.

But sometimes folk forget that defenders and keepers are world class too.

Which defenders would get near those three?

Plus it’s harder to score/create
