World Cup 2022

Off we go. England the only winners from the Home Nations in the first round of matches. Their game v Poland could be a toughie. Will Maguire and Stones cope with Lewandowski?

You are assuming Magoo will be playing then.

'Fraid so. Southgate seems to like him. Poland played with twin strikers; Lewandowski & Milik; the other night so England may even go 3 at the back.

Not sure picking Magoo against the Albanians is a good idea. 
What if he has flashbacks once they start running towards him and does a runner like last time. ?

It is never a good idea picking him as far as I am concerned. We should beat this lot; it's the Poles that worry me. Remember 1973.

Agreed. How he is still Southgates choice is beyond me. 
Im not convinced today will be plain sailing. Kane is due a goal, let’s hope  it’s today.

I trust you had a few shillings on Kane.

Nah my gambling days are over. 
Nice to see him get in the 50s attempts now since he has scored from a direct free kick. About time he stood aside. Lets

not mention his missed sitter. 
Poland must be kicking their lips. 
Talk about slow and negative. 
I know Rice is one of ours but he is playing  more like Ray Wilkins every game.

Lewandowski out of tomorrow's game with a leg injury. Phew.
