Townsend? He's some boy as well. Lovely little silk handkerchief popping out of the top pocket. Bet he had nee socks on either.
Missed it as me and the wife have a 40 week appointment with the midwife in half an hour. I'm ****ing stressed enough as it is. Sounds like the first job is done but there is now a **** ton of work to be done. Dreading us going up against form unless we can find some.
It seems that has to be enough for now. Southgate has clearly settled on a formation which isn't exactly going to thrill.
Sterling should have the world of confidence after scoring in both games. He can be unplayable when on top form, let’s hope that comes out in the last 16.
After getting motm i cant see how Gareth can justify dropping Saka in our next game. Phillips has done feck all since the Croatia game, so he needs to be out. Id go 5-3-1-1 next game against a much tougher opponent.... ...............Pickford............ .........Stones...Slabhead....Mings......... James.....................................Saka..... ......................Rice/Henderson.......... ......Foden...................... ........Grealish.... .......................Stering..................... ............................Kane...............
have to agree about philips like, i thought he was the old 'breath of fresh air' against croatia and was everywhere, wonder if he has been told to sit back but it severely restricts his game if so, saka did what saka does so wondering if he will also be held back from now on...seems to be a bit of a common theme in the england set up, a lad has a great debut doing what he does for his team and the rest of his international career he looks like he is being held back.
Just thinking about all the diving and playacting. Must have all been to the "Eric Gates school of hitting the floor..both legs completely taken under,particularly in the penalty area". Therein was the Master!!
It's a breath of fresh air to see them playing on when the likes of Eden Hazard are wincing about on the floor...
