mrbojangles Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 To be honest, Slovenia surprised me. Not a bad team at all. I'd have given Hart MoM, so that says quite a bit about them. A lot of sloppy defending and sloppy back passes by England though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bredbury Blue Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Didn't watch it. Read Hart saved us. Of the back 4, I read a shambles apart from Stones. Let's have your marks out of 10 for all our players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't the object of friendlies to try out players? He was right to give a younger keeper a run out. Gains him experience. Although if Southgate is right for the job what on earth is he doing playing 34yo Jagielka who isn't and never was an international quality player?

carmine Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 (edited) Another unwanted international break coming up and its great to see that the latest fool to take to poisoned chalice has decided to recall a 34 yo for a friendly. What on earth is that plonker wasting a friendly to try out a player who's in the twilight of his career. Its just pathetic. Nice to see the national embarrassment continues to look towards the future. Doing our upmost to win a meaningless friendly so we can get spanked in a tournament when it actually matters!!

3 minus 2 Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 good time in fact only time for the new manager to have a 1 st hand look at whats availiable . good to see the southampton boys get a look in their performances have warrented a place but we all know that dont always happen. big up to defoe, stats say he deserves his recall, just slightly concerned that calling a 35 year old up is the best option? , . perhaps the burnley lads might have been worth a look at, or even deeney, but he aint 'shone' quite so brightly this year and his distribution stats wise is truly shocking. And lets hope stones aint to ' damaged from his man city debacle and steadies himself with some time in with some decent defenders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good on Defoe for playing so well this season, but in all seriousness at his age he shouldn't be anywhere near the national team set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3 minus 2 Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 looking at the squad, it actually hasnt got that much expirence . hart got the most caps at early 70's then comes cahil and yes, defoe both in there 50 's. fairly in expirenced. the rest in the 20' 's so looking at that front line vardy rashford aint exactly awash with expirence so defoe's inclusion to me now takes a slightly diferent slant.

mrbojangles Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 The game on Thursday night was bad but yesterday's was woeful. It was either a very clever strategic plan to not build our hopes up for next year or we are garbage. I fear the latter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think we have some individual good players but as you say, Southgate ain't the man to manage them. Every one of those who played last night should have been fighting for their world cup shirt and yet they looked liked they couldn't be bothered.

As Carms says, I think that's a thing of the past. Most "English thugs" (not all of course) have been identified and aren't allowed to travel anymore. Funnily enough, that only leaves English fans going who actually want to watch a footy match and not fight. The fact that those going aren't fighters leaves them exposed to Russian thugs who want a dust up. Might be best to let the English nutters travel so they can all fill their boots and kick the living daylights out of each other. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you saw in Europe will not happen at the WC. The security and organisation will be very tight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
