Norwich Internationals

U21s play Finland tonight, Redmond will no doubt start, the game is on BT Sports 1 and they're normally well worth a watch

Edit: Apologies Max missed you there

 

bath, he is starting

edit - i don't believe this one is on BT Sport

 

Thought he would, this is a pretty big game for them and he's one of their best players. Thought he outplayed Zaha on friday.

 

yeah, from what i saw of friday's game, zaha had a lot of tricks and step overs but not as good an end product as nathan

 

On Thursday they said it would be. I checked the listings early on Thursday for that one and they didn't have it listed then suddenly it was there.

 

Well I was wrong. Feel as though it should be on tv though.

 

Pilks is starting against Austria tomorrow, Hoolahan isn't.

 

U21s are 1-1

 

Under-21s finished 1:1. Redmond played 60 mins. Wisdom sent off for two yellows late on. Finland currently top the group on 8 pts after 4 games; England have only played two and have 4 points, so the draw looks a pretty good result.

 

I note Bale isn't starting for Wales.Be interesting to see if he is fit for Real.

 

Elmander & Olsson both playing for Sweden against Kazahkstan. Currently 0:1 Sweden (Ibrahimovic after 1min) with 15 mins to go. Almost certainly curtains for the RoI.

 

Don't want to be negative but I will
This is painful to watch, England cant string more than four passes together
We look poor, Ukraine aren't much better in the creativity stakes

 

I used to rate Joe Hart, but lately I have no confidence in him at all!

 

Agreed he is shakey. Trouble is roy rates him, will need to have a Carson or green -esque error to displace him

 

Ruddy would have scored. FACT.

 

Last season I thought he got sussed out, that overhead kick Ibrahimovic scored against England should of never happened. Hart is overly confident bordering suicidal he very often get's caught out, there is something very Jens Lehman like about him.

 

Hope your GK will be motivated to have a good month now, no reason he can't take that jersey.

 

I hope those who complained about our style of play last season watched that.Has Roy been taking tactical advice from Chrissy?

 

Any reports of injuries from the internationals or is it business as usual?

 

it might not have been pretty but it was a very, very good result for england. there's a lot to be said for making a team difficult to beat and we are excellent at grinding out results when necessary. the issue comes when we need to win a game and need something a little different, a bit of flair, a spark. but don't underestimate that result - it was hard and well earned.

i understand pilkington had a good game for ireland too.
