Walker barely touched him!

Kane is at his best for England when dropping deeper, turning and playing the ball through for the pace of sterling/Sancho/Rashford.

Definitely. England looked good in the last couple of years with the two wingers coming narrow and running beyond Kane, with two defensive mids and one attacking as the link. For some reason Southgate lives changing a system that works. Sancho has been shite.

Rice and JWP, Sancho and Sterling on the wings, Kane and Ings up top.

Pundits make excuses for Rice's terrible attempt on goal and then criticise JWP for dropping deep to receive the ball instead of staying up front 🤦‍♂️

Would say that's ridiculous but right at the end there I saw two examples of a player facing ward Prowse who was in acres of space and turning their back on him to pass into traffic. Hope we're not returning to the England cliques.

Frustrating watching him make good runs into space and get ignored.

He's had 3 or 4 good little touches and got into some good positions on the edge of the box but been ignored. More annoyingly seems like they aren't giving him set piece duty but, bizarrely, have trippier taking corners.

Wait, why no VAR????

Wanking over Foden in the pre-match build up, hopefully prowsey puts in a leaders performance in the middle to steal the show.

Still can't help feeling we might be better off getting in an experienced player from a top club on loan for the season and buy a permanent midfield fixture next summer when we have more funds available, rather than buying a mediocre midfielder now and being lumbered with them when they inevitably don't become part of our long term plans.

Maybe so, but that kid has an absolutely huge future in the game.

Shocked Diangana was for sale. Would have loved to have see him here.

There are forums that charge no fee at all and handle more traffic. This new software seems like it will never be good enough.

Well, we absolutely need another midfielder now then. Not sure who we can get that's better than Reed with the £10million raised here unless we have hidden funds to top it up.

Well that's given me a reason to cheer for Fulham. Question - let's say the scenario occurs where they are obligated to buy him. Is he then obligated to agree terms or can he refuse? Surely they wouldn't have agreed terms now, as he could have a storming season that would be of benefit in negotiations next summer?

Been suggested only season ticket holders will have access to their teams games if they're televised, other than the ones picked normally that is. If so I'll still be looking for streams as I ain't paying £700 for it.

Anyone know much about the allegations that Jaidi has assaulted one of his own players?

It's been proven time and again that net transfer spend rarely translates to table position, but ranking wage bills almost exactly matches league position. I'd be more interested in seeing that comparison.

Can only assume the player was actually Salisu and that's why we haven't seen any pictures of him in a saints shirt yet.

Surely footwork is the one of the easiest things to train into someone? Get him in some quick one touch passing drills with the midfield.

Vieras stats don't represent someone who presses either, seems a more creative type who doesn't get stuck in.

So we're going to spend £8million on a player worse than Reed to be back up?

If we signed Kalvin Phillips people would be over the moon. Reed is a top championship midfielder just like Phillips.

Maybe we should look for an experienced loan player for a season and then we can see what's available with more funds next season.
