The England Thread

[Marty]

Wiki says he has five for us this season, two in the league and one in each cup. Can't for the life of me remember any of them.

Alright, I looked it up. Three penalties, against Asteras, Chelsea and Sheff U, all of which I can recall. But I have no recollection of his goals against Leicester (the cup match, I didn't see it) and more recently Swansea.

Counter attack from their corner. He travelled down the left, cut inside, smashed it in with his right foot.

I'm not even sure it was a month ago...

If Lamela had scored that goal the fanboys would still be wanking off to it as we speak.

My memory is utter rubbish, but that just takes the cake!

Leicester was a PK as well after Soldado was brought down in the box.

The Swansea goal was quality actually, shame you don't recall that one. Attacked aggressively down the left, pulled it back in the six to lose a defender who had gotten back, and lasered it across goal with his right foot. The kind of high-pace, energetic goal we've not seen many of since Bale left.

Jack Wilshere - 26 England apps, 1 assist. Ryan Mason - 1 England app, 1 assist.

His greatest weakness, even before he cut out the pigeon-slaughtering hobby. He has got to stop giving up on his mark/the ball-carrier so bloody easily. I like the player and like his passion, but he's got to figure that out if he wants to survive while Poch continues to mold the squad.

Greaves, Henry,Smith & Baker?

Peter Baker was never capped Ron Henry only once and I'm not sure if that was alongside the other two.

Good solid performance from Kane, he made Italy watch him very closely shame we had no midfield in the first hald a complete waste of talents like Rooney and Kane.

Walker was soooo much better than Clyne. In the two games Clyne was the weakest link; can't defend, can't pass, has no pace and no brain ... hopefully now some people on here will realise that Kyle is a whole lot better than they think.

Nice to see Andros and Mason on in the end. Great goal by Andros and Mason did little wrong.

Can'r believe any manager would think playing Jones, Delph, Henderson in midfield was a good idea. What a difference a couple of real footballers made when the subs started coming on

I know the goal was scored centrally, but I think everyone must now agree that if Townsend continues to get chances in the team then he has to be given a run on the left. In all the games he has played I don't think he even switches over there for a 10-15 minute spell, he's just always stationed on the right. To me he looks far more comfortable on the left hand side back in his original position.

Not bad for a player that should be 'nowhere near the squad' ay @PaulMerse ?

Just goes to show what you can do when you play to your strengths and stop worrying about what the oppo have got.
I only saw the last fifteen minutes but having someone through the middle driving forward like RB did created so many problems for Italy.
We played to our strengths and used our pace on the break.
Woy needs to look at that last twenty minutes and start to be a bit bolder in his team selection.

The goal against Swansea was utter class from the left again.

Congrats to @Ryan_Mason13 on his debut, very well deserved and to @andros_townsend on his goal! #strike

I love Ryan Mason. So under rated.

 

[elDiablo]

why dont we play andros from the left, the guys is two footed, can cut in and score, and can cross naturally. just dont get it. not saying he will be the bollox, but would like to see him there instead of chadli on occasion.

thought kane was solid enough. did nothing spectacular, but also didnt let the team down once, so solid. 4 tottenham boys on the pitch at the end. Im sure someone has mentioned that stat earlier, but when was the last time we had that many? and did it include jenas,,,,,,,
