Yep, we‘ll sit back and wait for it to happen!You cant beat knock out games as that showed how poor entertainment can be in tournament games. With that point we now have to avoid a 4-0 plus defeat against Wales to qualify
Hi Mate hope you and yours are well I am easing myselfback into the best Football booard on the internet!Evening
The bloke is so far off the pace of today's game.Almost spat my beer out when Southgate said he was pleased with how we played out from the back.
You had me until there…It's disappointing, but ultimately it isn't that big in the grand scheme of things and we'll very likely get through. Netherlands and Ecuador don't have much between them so there's not much riding on winning the group anyway.
Wonder if we'd set up differently had Wales got a result
Not sure what you're getting at as a Flat Track Bully would dominate an inferior side such as the USA... Rather to me it seems Kane is tired and also shouldn't have played so soon after getting a foot injury against Iran.A team typically plays to the image of the coach, for Southgate that = drab, boring and risk averse.
However whoever the coach is they would face the same problem - Kane. I’m not sure there’s a more overrated ‘super’ striker in international football. Tonight he was at his absolute worst, insisting on dropping deep, no pace, attempting ridiculous flicks or through balls when he just needs to keep a ball moving. Then when ‘the chance’ finally arrives he absolutely fucks it up. Flat track bully, NEVER turns up when really needed, restricts how England (and Spurs) can play, should have been hooked, Wilson would run the channels at least.
Tired? It’s f***ing November. If players were crying about being tired for their clubs in November they’d get slaughtered. The tiredness impact of this WC will be felt in April/May.Not sure what you're getting at as a Flat Track Bully would dominate an inferior side such as the USA...

No, he's playing because he's been picked, like everyone else would. When we were under pressure and the ball came out to him, he generally held it up well. Kane has been a great player for England, could still succeed in this tournament, and using him as a scapegoat is ridiculous.No he’s doing what he did 18 months ago, playing when not 100% because to Harry Kane the most important thing is Harry Kane.
I don't think he picks himself though does he? That's your man Southgate. And come on ex players say all the time they've played when not fully fit because of fomo and IT'S THE WORLD CUP. Only Southgate is to blame for Kane playing today. And Conte to blame for resting other players and not Kane (and of course they're tired with the pre WC fixture overload).Tired?

What a bloody weird way of thinking. I don't get some on this board. Why would anyone support another country over their own, just because some of our clubs players play for them.If England play Ecuador I will not be supporting England
We actually played some football when Henderson came on, he got the more creative first11/subs into the game. Until then the US controlled the ball and game.cant really see why he's taken Foden if he wont play him. like not playing Gerrard or Gascoigne. im not a Henderson knocker but knew where this was heading when he came on, just as we needed some energy to spark the game to life.
