The England Thread

What the fuck was that pass by Sterling fired at Kane’s face?

 

[ComfortablyNumb]

Walker's a fucking machine...

I don't think it was meant for Kane?

 

[ILS]

Walker's a fucking machine...

And a tool at the same time...go figure.

I wondered that but behind him was… Italy’s goalkeeper

Everything is just so generic, what are they supposed to be doing?

Southgate consistently makes good players look ordinary.

 

[TheChosenOne]

Kane was never gonna pass

 

[spursfan77]

Livened up a bit now

 

[SlotBadger]

Pathetic decision by the referee to penalise Rice

 

[ComfortablyNumb]

Pretty uninspiring.

Who are the. commentators?

 

[Colonel_Klinck]

Boooooo! If this is what we’ve got to look forward to at the WC we will be on an early plane home. Italy are dreadful atm and we’ve treating them like they are peak Italy ?

I’ve switched 3 times - ain’t got a clue. Got an English stream then found out Virgin Media here in Ireland are showing the game but then switched to Channel Four. Much of a muchness, vanilla

On a positive note, Dier has looked decent in there.

Downside, it's like watching us play, where the ball goes forward but rarely sticks.

 

[TheHoddleWaddle]

Just when you thought Southgate couldn't quite bore you to sleep channel 4 decide to get Joe Cole to share his 'thoughts'. Well, good luck finding any of those.

There are lesser teams going to be there who will be fighting tooth and nail 100%

 

[PCozzie]

Better energy, but then there has to be to collect all the miscontrolled passes. Looks like we've worked on getting the ball into midfield in training, but then ran out of time to do anything further forward than that.

 

[fridgemagnet]

Does Foden have an allergy to passing to Harry Kane?

 

[SargeantMeatCurtains]

Southgate is still stealing a living, I see.

The one thing these teams have in common is that both have regressed since their Wembley final. It's pretty dire stuff to watch.
