the rumours are that hodgson thinks the ahceivement of beating wales is enough now and he can rest his stars ofr the next round

clyne in for walker
Whilshire in for alli
Bertrand in for rose
henderson in for rooney
Sturridge in for sterling
Vardy in for kane


like.... Dier not deserve a rest there woy? no?

Cahill could be suspended if he gets a card.

anyway.... bes tof luck with the scratch side. yes a couple changes were needed and made at HT in the wales debacle but to start this resting **** when the groups not won says roy is happy with 4 points if thats all he gets.

like 2 lfc player scome in yeah... but like who the **** cares?

TBF regardless of Roy's ******ed [HASHTAG]#dinosaur[/HASHTAG] thought process, almost every one of those changes actually makes the team better
 
My 5 fold still looking good.

France and Swiss have come in.
England & wales
spain and croatia
itsly and Belgium
Portugal and Iceland.

Just crotia looking bit iffy wth then possibly losing out to Czech as they play Spain. Need a draw in that game really.

Need both portugsl and Iceland to win last game though!
I'm really pleased for you.
 
I think both the Spurs fullbacks have been outstanding and have been through so much work they might need a rest. Kane and Stirling should be dropped and as for Rooney I'm not sure if he should be dropped as he has been good in the two games so far. I think the formation needs tweaking otherwise either Vardie or Sturridge will be wasted on the wing. But if we don't win Roy better head for cover.

walkers been very good but not really having a target to aim for so hasn't gone and delivered anything. he must be quite frustrated.

rose hasn't been too good but his problem is sterling in front of him being a tosser

The thing for me is the games tonight and the last two are piss easy games. If we come up against a good or even half decent side with these issues we get reamed.
 
Walker hasn't done anything going forward apart from sprinting up and putting in aimless crosses.

That's not good attacking play.

Thats the problem with only having one striker up top, the wide two don't get in the box so the crosses have to be pinpoint. To be fair a lot of crosses and shots seem to balloon up and are well off target. Is it a new ball for this tournament?
 
With Clyne and Bertrand in the defence will be a lot better, there's enough attacking talent then up top to get goals, this SHOULD be an easy win for you.

Merson claiming walker has been best player of euro 2016 so far.. From all teams! But OTT. Been decent but let's not get carried away, he's played Russia and Wales, 2 teams that mounted 2 attacks between them!

big claim there like.....

I mean ok i am trying to think of who's been the outstanding players.

France: Payet has scored twice for france. played a part. Kante has been outstanding as well.
Croatia: Modric has been outstanding
Wales: Bale has scored two goals....
Italy: Bonnuci, cheillini
Spain: iniesta was brilliant.
Germany: kross? they have not exactly started yet.
Switzerland in game one shaqiri

in short i've nothing against walker. he played best of all english players, worked hard for both games but he didn't exactly provide much so i would say there has been better players

I'd disagree with that, Shaqiri has been ****. Think its clear now why Stoke were able to get hold of him and the big clubs were either willing to stay clear or get rid. He's seriously inconsistent and only turns when he feels like it, also he's dropped a paddy in these Euros, claimed that he's upset he wasn't given the Captaincy and that he might end up playing for Kosovo because of it..

Think Kroos and the whole of the German team would be playing better if they played with a proper striker or even just Muller as the central man.

You sure you're thinking of Switzerland, they've hardly set the world alight. A timid 1-0 win over 10 man Albania, a **** draw with Romania and then the dull game last night against France.

Think Mehmedi might be their best player so far.

Exactly - he hasn't had to worry about defending and has complete freedom to attack but still puts in **** balls.

Mind you, he's still better going forward than clyne

The England team bus has just gone past a frankly superb-looking outdoor go-kart track. Much like the one on the outskirts of Milton Keynes.


Seriously???? <doh>

Last time I went to Milton Keynes was an all night rave. Might have been Helter Skelter in about 1998 ish.

Roundabouts everywhere pilled right up :bandit:
