Match Day Thread Premier League, Cups & Euro Watch

Anyone watching the Netherlands v France game?

France are a well organised, very defensive outfit.

Or boring as I’d call it

Zzzzzz

 

If De Gea does not sign a new contract Utd are apparently to go after Pickford for £60m. That should please Tobes, a bit of extra cash for the new ground.

 

Promoted to first team

 

Not sure it is much of a promotion these days

 

Everton have been under strict orders not to take any of the numerous chances they had to pull away from Man Utd and instead sit just below them in the table

 

Fernandinho gets away with that where as Barkley did not
Just after Lino takes an age to decide whether was corner or not atm went up -waited ref pointed corner
Lino concurred lmao

 

Yeah rashfords two missed chances were why we lost the semi and not Kane and his guilt edge chance

 

Just turned game on and see us scored. 1-1

 

We should invoice FA for use of our throw in coach

 

England were so lucky that lingard was on line cos pickford was too small to save that easy one.

i see lovren again showing his class there marking kane.

did you see the ****er doing his meerkats impersonation after the ball goes in.

 

I should invoice them, 2 goals since I turned it on

 

lovren gets himself booked as well.

 

‘England into the semis of another important tournament’

important to who? No one cares about this league thing

 

It's like winning a prequalifier.

 

Only matters if you win it and qualify for the Euro's, which most of these 'A' league teams will do anyway through the Qualifiers.

So actually its a hindrance cause you spend a year and a half playing friendlies like a host nation.

 

What happens now? The semis and the finals are in June of next year I'm told, so that's another year where top players don't get a full break. It looks like they're never going to any more, there'll always be some tournament or other on.

 

The easy qualification group we would have is hardly a challenge.

 

Be okay, it’s only a few games and most of the players for England won’t be in CL latter stages/long cup runs.

 

I dunno... most of the games are piss easy in groups too.

in general the way England players act they will make the friendlies worthless yes.you are right.

especially mancs who withdraw with no reason. unlike Henderson whos prob injured again and gomez who plaued 90 mins today despite carrying an achilles injury with others sat and watched.
