[Football] England V Wales

[Questions]

Where's this supposed Red Wall gone ? Welsh players going down suffering from embarrasment ?

Did Gareth’s manbun make a strong appearance tonight

Like two years ago

Say 'like' again. Say 'like' again, I dare you, I double dare you motherfucker, say 'like' one more Goddamn time!

Did Gareth’s manbun make a strong appearance tonight

Yes but outplayed by Kevin Phillips!

 

[Swansman]

Watching the USA playing, they are perhaps infecting my brain. But I agree with your attitude regarding that word. Actually, not only do I agree with it - I even like it.

 

[Poojah]

Well, 7 points, top of the group, 9 goals scored, 2 clean sheets, no defeats, through to the round of 16.

In a World Cup where many big guns have struggled, you can’t argue with that. So far, so good.

 

[BrightonCottager]

How does Phillips even get close to playing? Has barely kicked a ball all season.
England have played well, I hope they can grab another couple.

Bit of a delayed question and may have been answered already, but when did the ruling come in regarding extra subs if a suspected concussion sub is made? I've not heard of that before.

Fulham and Worthing's Harrison Reed should be there instead.

 

[KZNSeagull]

Job done. Played well in patches.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Flossy, Dolly, Shaun, Baa Baa Black and Larry the Lamb - your boys took one HELL of a bleating!

Let’s hope Southgate keeps with Foden, he won’t like it that the rest of the country were spot on and he was wrong

 

[BN41Albion]

Managed the game well tbf. Wales offered nothing first half, we kept it nice and tight, then upped it second half. All that was needed really. Wales is a tiny nation yes but I'm surprised with just how poor they've been this tournament.

 

[Zeberdi]

Maybe taken the wrong way, apologies.

Never noticed it before.
Surely it gives the advantage to the other team? Your player is forced off so you have to make a sub, the opposition get a free sub they can take whenever they like.
Or am I misunderstanding it, almost like the forced sub didn't happen?

The concussion subs are in addition to the ‘usual subs’ aren’t they - so no one disadvantaged?

But then Sterling and Saka were superb against Iran, who are a better side than Wales. So, swings and roundabouts really innit?

My concern is more with the lack of attacking intent Mount gives for an AM.

 

[HalfaSeatOn]

England have enough flow of talent that they can evolve. Wales don’t and will have to rebuild patiently. The good thing for England is Rashford is back on it and the ‘squad’ players are coming to the fore. Callum Wilson was very impressive.

 

[Weststander]

Was Rashford’s second goal the best of the tournament so far

But then Sterling and Saka were superb against Iran, who are a better side than Wales. So, swings and roundabouts really innit?

Don’t play Mount and be unconcerned.

Foden should start every game.

The more deep lying Henderson and Rice worked well, in latter stages against the US and tonight. Maguire and Stones need that protection and control of the ball against teams far better than Wales.

But, but... Wales had loads of players injured, USA deserved to beat us and Iran had a mare against us. We lucked out to get out of this group.

IF we get past Senegal, we'll still go out to France at the quarter finals anyway.

Gormless Gareth out, the Palarse dullard!

 

[Springal]

Topped the group, scored 9, conceded 2. Good going and we have a very strong bench if needed. Happy with that

A lot of Wales fans really unhappy about Bale performance this tournament

Cough ! We have played a divided Iran team, a US team that has no talent and, Wales. If we don't trip up against Senegal next round we will get pasted the next.

... or somewhere in between these simplified versions.

You've played three decent teams and done well. You should beat all of them in 8 out of 10 games however so it really doesn't say much about how things will end up, similar to how the Netherlands winning their group doesn't tell a lot about how far they'll go.

That's the spirit
