Match Day Thread The 2022 World Cup Discussion Thread

I could suffer those two but Raheem f****g Sterling???

 

He's away due to 'family reasons'.
Means he's been dropped.

 

I know, it just didn’t feel like a World Cup Finals if I hadn’t said that once during the tournament.

 

England are second best in the first 30 minutes. Concerning.

 

Well worked goal.
We'd been fairly poor until then.

 

Is Saka the knacker taking up Sterlings place ?

He's bloody useless

 

I Knew that would work

 

Apart from the goal he's done nowt

 

Mackems celebrating players who dropped them like a stone to go to bigger clubs….

they will be parading the ‘they’re yoosed ta playy for us yanaaa marra’ cup soon…

In the darkness of despair… every moresel of light is to be cherished…

 

See I was right

Being substituted now

Even Southgate knew he was ****e

 

You going to update that to Jordan 'opened the scoring' Henderson...?

He and Bellingham dominated the game in that first half.

 

Good win
But still think we didnt get out of second gear going forward

Second half subs where anonymous

 

Hopefully someone robs his house on Friday night this week as well.

 

How the mighty have fallen:

 

Henderson actually seems to be a good fit now that we have some midfield creativity we can play alongside him. Suspect Walker is being given game time to try and get him fit enough for France game. He is probably the only one in the team who can come close to Mbappe for pace.

 

Let's buy Jude Bellingham, what a player.

 

First 30 mins yesterday were a cluster **** and we were seriously bailed out in the half by Pickford - 2 great saves and Henderson's goal relieved the pressure and set us on the way... second half we cruised it and never really got out of 3rd gear. One thing for sure though we need to start better against France otherwise we will be out before half time!

Surprised by the subs tbh, I thought Walker would have got a rest before trying to keep up with Mbappe and Kane wrapped in cotton wool before the France game but both played the full 90 mins.

Bellingham is just ridiculous though, it's a shame we aren't another year or two into our rise as I don't think we can attract him in January and he's going to have suitors across the continent.

 

World Cup's not been great.

Never seen so much pathetic ****ing play acting in my life. Some of the decision making and football has been of the lowest order. The offside flag shambles just gets worse every game. Set pieces have been dire. There really are some bad players stealing a living.

The number 21 for Morocco today just another in a long line of garbage amateurs. Jesus, Morocco break, two players run towards the ball (both Morocco) - one shoves the other, who falls and misses the ball. He barely touches his teammate who then DIVES to the floor!!! Honestly, it's laughably bad. As is Morata.

 

Wow, Morocco dump Spain out on penalties.
