It’s only natural that he’d try to rush recovery to play in Russia. Hope it doesn’t cost us.

That team is a shocker

Southgate is in love with this 3 at back and he will **** this up.

I predict very few goals for England in this tournament.

If you have one forward up, as most international teams do then oneof those 3 cbs is idle but the midfield will be over run.


My prediction will be england having less possession than it's opponent in most games. We have a **** group so I still expect us to crawl through.

tbh I'm expecting a ****e world cup. Most games will be tight but unadventurous and tedious. International football in general is still stuck with the idea of 'not losing' over trying to win.

Also the quality of the teams is fairly poor. Other than Germany (and maybe France) the others have massive gaping holes of quality in their teams. Take Argentina for example, great front line that includes Messi, awful Defence and Goalkeepers. Or England who have alot of average players.

Don't be surprised when this WC is a total let down (of course Putin will declare it the greatest in History though)

yeah I find all international tournaments are clogged down the middle with little quality. all the paly is central and thats why i think southgate is nuts to take.a guy.out of the midfield.and stick.him.in the back line.

the full backs won't provide width. not imo.
 
I actually enjoyed watching Nigeria play 2nd half and cheered :bandit: <laugh> when they scored.

England have always played the same boring way and I seriously doubt and wonder if it's the managers or they are told to play that way.

Not since shearer and Sheringham have I enjoyed watching England.

Same old ****e.

Germany have a lot of quality to pick from, but Low really does have favourites. He has dropped Sane from the final squad

Mohamed Salah has been included in Egypt's final 23-man squad for the World Cup, despite the injury he sustained in the Champions League final.

The Liverpool forward suffered a shoulder injury after a challenge by Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos in the first half in Kiev, but is now set to play for his country at the tournament in Russia later this month.

I expect a quarter final in which we will go down to ten men in the first half due to a piece of ref-tricking, then we'll battle valiantly to take it to extra time and pens, in which the burden of history and lack of practising technique - because "you can't replicate the pressure" - will see a new Public Enemy #1 born. Those are my favourites. My money's on Stones to get sent off and Sterling to miss penalty #4.

Hendo to get sent off, TAA to miss the penalty
 
My secretary's son was one of the mascots at the England game last night. He came onto the pitch holding Rashfords hand. He is only 10 but is 5ft 5".

The cameras focused a lot on a blonde reporter with massive tits and the Daily Andrex have a photo which shows my secretary's son and her husband in the background, unfortunately the fourth official is holding up the board and has blocked her out of the photo.
