World Cup Discussion Thread - Day 20 (3 July)

[SargeantMeatCurtains]

Colombia’s behaviour has been utterly disgraceful but that doesn’t make up for the fact that we have put in a shocking performance.

 

[TheHoddleWaddle]

Has Dier tried a forward pass since coming on? He has looked fearful in possession and passed short every time.

I recall 1. He gave it back to Colombia

 

[SdB]

If they managed to stay fit or not red carded maybe.

I'd take the risk.

Dier and Henderson are woeful

 

[Marty]

Eric Dier is getting slated on Twitter, what did he do?

Nothing too negative but nothing positive either. Looks shit scared.

 

[Johnny J]

Gary Neville talks a lot of sense.

We need a hero.

Well that's us fucked then.

 

[nidge]

Eric Dier is getting slated on Twitter, what did he do?

Nothing and that's the problem.

 

[LexingtonSpurs]

Kane needs to be in the box. Now its only Vardy

If Kane is not dropping deep to get the ball, how is it getting forward? Everytime a CM or CB carries it forward, they lose it...

 

[Anurag Jo]

England have been awful in the final third.
Dont really want England to go out this Colombian side which is more intent on roughhousing than playing football.

 

[spurs mental]

Eric Dier is getting slated on Twitter, what did he do?

Nothing. Literally

Nothing

 

[kaz Hirai]

Midfield is real bad. Hate to say it but this is where you need a JW.

Who!? The hob goblin? Think u mean harry winks

I’d say we’ve been awful in the middle third. But there is no middle third for us.

 

[Marty]

Vardy or Lingard needed to hit that first time.

 

[Johnny J]

I don't understand how a professional footballer can play with bubblegum.

 

[Dundalk_Spur]

I think I have run further than Vardy tonight and I'm sat on the sofa.

 

[Streetspur77]

We were fine until Dier came on, can this midfield experiment just end please. He's a CB.

So disengenous to blame this on Dier because it fits your agenda.

This is because we’ve gone mentally after conceding a gutting goal, not because of an individual

 

[Huddlestone22]

Time to get Rashford on and just let him burn against tired legs, we might as well rather than leaving it to an unfavorable shootout.

 

[hutchiniho]

We look absolutely shot, out on our feet.

Colombia full of energy.

really hope we haven’t blown our chance at Sweden.

Can Rashford come on and do something?

 

[Dr Know]

I reckon Japan would have given this England side a good whooping if they had won the group

 

[ItsBoris]

I've watched this game on replay for over 30 years now...

Spoiler: the dagger to the heart happens at the end.
