Whitey Grandad

Their keeper didn’t have a save to make (apart from the penalties).

No mention of VAR tonight. How refreshing.

It didn’t happen in my day but that was a long while ago and at a much lower level. I have just looked up the procedure “Each team is responsible for selecting from the eligible players the order in which they will take the kicks. The referee is not informed of the order.”

Southgate on the BBC just now said that the penalty takers were down to him. They had been practising them in training and he decided who should take them.

Then what was the point of those two last minute substitutes? They can only have been thrown on in order to take penalties.

Meh, it’s only a game.

It might have been that Southgate decided what the order should be.

Rashford effectively missed an open goal.

To be honest I think he would have been a better team player that Sterling.

What is the point of playing for penalties most of the game if you’re not prepared for them?

How can a team miss three penalties out of five? I blame the manager. What was the point of those last two substitutions?

At least we won’t have to put up with another bank holiday 🤗

If only we had given it a real go we might have got something out of this. We all know where this is going, don’t we?

My thoughts too. Doesn’t know when to pass the ball.

Some very loose passes going on out there.

It’s been coming.

Well that was unexpected 😳

I saw a map comparing touches for Pickford and Banks. Banks never left his goal area.

It’s very sad that players whom you knew in their prime are taken from us at an early age.

Did I see that Messi is a free agent too?

We’d be annoyed if that was given against us.

Wearing a mask is primarily to protect others rather than the wearer. There is an argument that restricting exposure to pathogens reduces immunity to them.

Although the Shaw of today is not the Shaw of a couple of years ago. Maybe it was Mourinho’s treatment of him that helped to make him the player he is today? Who knows?

I haven’t had a cold for well over ten years so wearing a mask has made no difference to me. I don’t think I’ve ever had influenza.

I can’t stand Gobby Henderson but credit to him for a great goal.
