England v Albania (WCQ) 12/11/21 - 19:45, ITV1

[Lord Camomile]

Tonight's matches:

Andorra vs Poland
England vs Albania
Hungary vs San Marino

Then the final games of the group on Monday (15th)

Albania vs Andorra
Poland vs Hungary
San Marino vs England

"England are top of Group I and need four points from their last two games to secure their place at Qatar 2022."

As mentioned previously, if we go to San Marino needing to win by 7 to qualify, again, I will be severely irritated.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Christ, quite a bit of in and out in the squad, according to the Beeb.

Boss Gareth Southgate has confirmed Manchester City forward Jack Grealish is fit after an illness.

Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount [dental surgery] and Manchester United left-back Luke Shaw [concussion checks following head injury last Saturday] are doubts for the match.

Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford and Southampton midfielder James Ward-Prowse did not report for England duty and West Ham midfielder Declan Rice (illness) withdrew from the squad earlier this week.

All this has led to Emile Smith Rowe getting a call up.

Going on past experience, I did figure some might not realise the match is on this evening

Good to see the 'in form' players like Maguire, Sterling and Kane starting

We are fucking mass... Oh hang on.

Good solid booing of their anthem.

The man on the right didn't salute why didn't the army man on the right salute?

 

[Lord Camomile]

At Wembley, playing in blue

The one in the middle looked a bit unsteady tbh may have been a tad pissed.

I hate it when we play in blue anywhere.

 

[two sheds]

Not sure if she was wearing heels, but if so, that ain't gonna make things easy on a recently watered November pitch.

 

[tommers]

Well done slabhead.

Told you

 

[Lord Camomile]

We haven't been convincing, but that were pretty good.

Imagine the Albanian defense won't be quite so happy with it, though.

 

[Lord Camomile]

How tall is the guy that was marking Maguire?!

 

[two sheds]

wehey

fucking minute's delay here again

 

[Lord Camomile]

Not entirely convinced by the suggestion that Maguire has answered critics of his defending by scoring a goal...

 

[two sheds]

Means he can do some crap defending and it cancels out

 

[Lord Camomile]

wehey

fucking minute's delay here again

I'll warn you next time we score, so you know not to look at the thread
