A good game for the neutrals, and excellent England goals, two anyway. Helped to liven the tournament up. Be good to see some fluent passing against Ukraine. Not in the bag yet.
 
We gotta play to our strengths, one of which is speed up front. Never thought I'd be able to say that about an England team! But in Walcott, Ox, Welbekk, Young, Cole, Johnsen we have that. Milner did well tonight, but Walcott changed the game at the end, so Watford I think you got a good point about bringing W on late.

Dead right! Slevshanks could cause us more damage than Zlatan. Ukraine's defense is worse than ours!
 
Don't rate Wellbeck as a player at all, but by god did he take that goal well. Great fighting spirit from England as Swords said above. Think Rooney will make one hell of a diff to that team. Crying out for scholes.

You are joking right? Wellbeck is class with bags more to come!!
Rooney usually needs a couple of games to get back into it after a lay off. I'm not expecting too much from him against Ukraine.

The goal was excellent WELLBECK is not class ... nowhere near yet .. miles off ... NUTS is right on all three ... how are your three nuts?
 
In fairness Flyer, i have to agree. Walcott has to play. If Milner is only playing to protect Johnson then you're loosing one of your most creative players for nothing.

You're all ignoring the fact that Young was the worst player on the pitch by a country mile. Young out....Walcott in. Carroll out.....Rooney in.
Oh....and Johnson was easily our best defender tonight!!

Well...you've confirmed what I always suspected......you wouldn't know a good player if you fell over him!!
Watch Wellbeck's movement.....his first touch.....his work rate and his finishing = class!!
 
I thought all three goals were rather good. How many passes for the third? It was Francisian like.
 
Do you think the French will slip up against the Swedes?

No they'll probably beat them but then it comes down to G/D. If England win by two it'll come down to goals scored. Or will it?

Its disgraceful the way UEFA have fu*ked with the G/D then goals scored rule. It was perfect as it was. But even if Italy win their last game 7-0 and Croatia and Spain draw 2-2, Italy will be out despite having the same amount of points and a better Goal Difference!

What kind of a fu*ked up French prick in a suit came up with that little gem?

That's past me by Swords. How does the goal difference pan out when teams are level on points?
 
Correct but that's because i support QPR Montpellier and France nationally

You've exposed yourself (not for the first time according to the Park-Warden in down town Brighton). You admit then that when its your team playing you'll wax lyrical but when its another, you'll criticize.

That's extremely poor Phil Thompson-style punditry. I can't trust your opinions on QPR anymore mate. (Not that I ever did cos you've always talked rot).
 
What that was a friendly last year??? are you mad before hat was 32 years ago before the current team was even born . even last year fluke Spain had 76% of the game

You need to have that extra ball removed it's straining your brain

At least I can string a sentence together......do you ever read back your posts?
