Match Day Thread England v Germany 29/06/2021 17:00 BBC

Need a good ball in here.

 

The Germans appear to be using the sneaky tactics of finding a German player with their passes. Unfortunately, England seem to be trying to match this, by finding a German player with each of their own passes.

 

2 fabulous bits of play by Saka just then, one in attack, one defensive.

 

Better, and good effort Sterling.

 

Too early to be sure. It might go next door...

 

Wales?

 

A corner, crying out for a Prowsie delivery. Oh, well...

 

I have to say I think playing Walker as a 3rd CB today is the right call. Germany have no height but a lot of pace up front. Walker's pace back there is important.

 

My Schalke mate is gobsmacked we’re not playing Sancho. I told him we’ve got 29 players which are better He’s highly rated in DE.

 

The Germans seem to be employing the full width of the pitch, and the front five rows of the stands as well

 

TBF I really like the inclusion of Saka.

 

Well done Luke

 

Our best player so far.

 

Good ball.

 

You can tell the excitement levels of the game by the number of times that the TV producer cuts to cameos of fans in the stands...

 

**** header from Maguire.

 

Maguire so good in the air normally.

 

I've always thought he wrote the best gospel. Wrong thread?

 

Has Kane had a touch yet?
