  1. Or Maguire. He was good today but a mess against Panama FFS
  2. Neymar?! This is just a stream of consciousness, load of balls.
  3. Engerrrland. We aren't very good really but you can only beat what's in front of you and all that. Home, cometh it.
  4. Been linked with Andy Bellend for a while.
  5. Happy with Reed and Stephens competing for reserve right back / wing back.
  6. The Burnley game has been moved. Whether or not they get through the Europa League, it is moved.
  7. Maguire dived and was lucky not to get booked but it's not like we were awarded a pen so it's not a big deal. Apart from that, I'm not sure what we are supposed to have done wrong. They should have had two red cards, at least. They were lucky the referee was so lenient with them.
  8. Yeah, at first glance Elyanousi doesn't seem suited to the system. A 433 with one deep pivot, Lemina and Armstrong pushing on and MoEl, Austin and Gabbi/Redmond/Sims looks a better fit. Probably does rely on us signing a good commanding centre back as well.
  9. Who would have thought it?!
  10. I expect they were cheap. #seasideB&B
  11. Hu is the Master Chef.
  12. Just saw him down Millbrook Goals. Played well. Think he's off to Superbowl for some Questing and a Fosters this evening. Good lad.
  13. Did you do the one with the funny cat?
  14. Agreed. They will see we have conceded in every match and that if they don't foul us in the box there's a good chance we won't score a goal.
  15. There's a difference between playing as a striker for England and lurking at the back post for tap ins at Man City. Sterling's game is about movement and speed. At City, they create chaos in the final third and carve open a lot of straightforward finishes. It suits him. For England, his poor touch and technique gets shown up as he ends up crowded out by opposition defenders quite easily. If we were playing a different system he'd be more effective. As a second "striker" I'd much sooner have Rashford. Against Sweden, I'd be tempted to change the midfield shape slightly from one pivot and two runners behind a front two to a platform of two midfielders (Henderson and RLC) and two runners (Rashford, Lingard) behind Kane. Last night the link between midfield and attack wasn't there. I'd also bring Rose or Delph (paternity leave FFS, why is he in the squad?) in for Young as we got much more penetration down the right via Trippget than we are getting witj Young down the left.
  16. Bad miss.
  17. We need to get Rashford on to produce something from nothing but we won't be taking Kane off. I'd sub Rashford for Vardy or switch to a back 4.
  18. Yeah, we can't claim to be hard done. We've been massively lucky that other teams keep insisting on fouling us in the box.
  19. Try to commit them to the challenge to create space, I guess.
  20. Lol. Clutching at straws.
  21. Low on the headbutt spectrum.
  22. In fairness, he did say their economy was propped up by US corporate tax dodgers and in the case of "computer hardware and software" that is certainly the case.
