England's Euro 2020 Exploits

[Lord Camomile]

Oooh, I'm not saying that was a dive, but boy did he buy that...

 

[tommers]

Grealish is such a diving little twat.

 

[tommers]

Oooh, I'm not saying that was a dive, but boy did he buy that...

I am.

 

[JimW]

I am.

Was it Rashford should have had one first half though if they had VAR in friendlies. Clearly JUSTICE.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Ok, that's a little more clear cut.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Oh, Jordan...

 

[JimW]

Sing-songs it is, then

 

[Steel Icarus]

Ffs Hendo

 

[passenger]

I had a tenner for him to score next what a wanker

 

[Lord Camomile]

You watch, he'll score a belter now

 

[Steel Icarus]

If you're going to grab the ball off a striker you best fucking bury it. Ridiculous thing to do, much as I love the guy

 

[JimW]

Nita is an ubermensch

 

[Steel Icarus]

One thing I'll say about today... Southgate HAS to be bold and play Grealish. Oppositions seem to shit it whenever he gets the ball and he seems to be playing a different game to everyone else.

Was just thinking, would be nice if it weren't quite so predictable he'll try to bring it on his right, particularly when he's running down the left, but I think that of almost all professional players.

I get it's different at their level, but also... get better/more confident with your non-dominant foot, y'bastards!

 

[JimW]

Very England defensively there at times, despite conceding the nil.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Phew, based on that it's gonna be hard to contain the excitement between now and our first game of the tournament. Honestly don't know what I'll do with myself.

 

[JimW]

I'd not seen that young lad Bellingham before, surely we'll have to coach that skill and positivity out of him if he wants to become a mainstay.

Might need to stop Henderson taking the penalties if we play Grealish.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Uh-oh, sounds like Henderson's in trouble with teacher

 

[Lord Camomile]

Question I meant to ask during the match, how much time will Kane and Calvert-Lewin spend on the pitch at the same time during the tournament?

 

[Argonia]

It's coming home....55 years of hurt

8 minutes, desperate long ball struggle in vain for an equaliser vs Poland in the round of 16

 

[souljacker]

Might need to stop Henderson taking the penalties if we play Grealish.

That's easily fixed by not playing the massive donkey in the first place.

 

[two sheds]

de Bruyne is apparently joining the Belgian squad soon

White called up to England Euro squad

Well then, Ben White makes the cut. Replacing an attacking RB with a CB isn't entirely encouraging... Maybe Southgate's not confident about Maguire?

Could be . England without Maguire can switch to three at the back rather than Maguires preferred 4.

 

[Argonia]

Can't White play in midfield as well?
