schmrichel should of come and destroyed Mbappe, just like Mrs Shilton on Maradonna all them yrs ago.

Ex Leeds player Steve Hodge had Maradona’s shirt from that game. He auctioned it at Sotheby’s six months ago and Qatar bought it for £7M <yikes>

Nice bit of business.

Using Welsh and Scottish logic (excuses) England did very well against a massive country like USA. They are far bigger than us so we did well to hold them to nil.
Don’t forget America have about ten sports ahead of
Football so only a minority play it. England on other hand don’t play anything else and add 100k foreigners arriving in your shores every year, many talented footballers among them, you’re seriously underachieving

You are joking? My school didn’t even play football it was rugby league. We play pretty much everything (badly, in the main). Going back to Revies time the reason often given for our low ish attendances is the competing 2 rugby games which are strong in Leeds

Wakey, you’ve got him son, nice and gentle with the wind in and that’s a cracker you’ve landed there :emoticon-0147-emo:
 
1974 team was (approx) 50-50 LUFC and Rangers. With Bremner as captain. So yes it was pretty good. Unbeaten and never outplayed in their group which included Brazil and a very good Yugoslavia. Went out on GD. I’m biased but Bremner the best player on the pitch in all 3 games.

I know all that bud, I’m old and a Leeds fan. But they didn’t qualify and It didn’t fit with my narrative of slagging off the sweaties <cheers>
