England v Slovakia

[Worried Man Blues]

It's not easy supporting England

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

England are top of their group, Slovakia are second, & have beaten Spain and Germany recently.
People have got into the habit of slagging off the national team, but there are no easy games now.

I'm enjoying the game.

Glad you are.

However, let's not mask it, England are poor, they are set up badly, have players playing out of position.

Capello was awful, Hodgson lost his way, Southgate seems little better.

How many England players are truly world class and have shown it internationally?

Kyle Walker isn't dross.

If he can get away with a trip like that right in front of the ref, he must definitely have something about him!

Kyle Walker isn't dross.

Obviously he has some strengths but He's a defender who doesn't know too much about defending. Giggsy may have been having a bad suit day but he summed it up well at half time.
For an England right back, walkers is not very good

But will always be a poor man's Bruno

I think some people are begging for something like that!

sadly so.

Frustrating when a player is very one footed (99% of them) and takes a daisy cutting embarrasing shot with the other foot. Tonight loads have been at it. Use your best foot or be patient and pass.

England are ranked 13th in the world. We aren't entitled to be in the top five or even ten, but we aren't as bad as people make out.

BBC stats make it look like we're all over them in shots

We are, and we are on a downward spiral

Edit - At least for 3-5 years anyway

We are. Slovakia haven't attacked much at all since we scored, although they did counter attack just now, and got a corner.

Premier league teams don't play with wingers, play narrow with full backs expected to give the width.

[Worried Man Blues]

Get in there

 

[Blackadder]

That's more like it.

Rashford what a goal.

 

[atfc village]

Great finish from Rashford

 

[Frutos]

Very well taken goal by Rashford.

 

[Hugo Rune]

I can almost hear the cheer in Scotchland for that goal
