Only plus was that was Maguires best game since 2018 World Cup. Amount of clearing headers was unreal and played the best long passes of anyone. Everyone else was turd. It's so sad that we have a manager who doesn't have a clue, to have Foden, Maddison and Arnold in your armoury and not use any of them when your side is playing like this sums him up unfortunately. Dopey ****wit ffs
 
For much of the game there was so little movement from our players in front of the ball carrier. When we did move 10 minutes into the game Kane was almost in, had his shot blocked. Needed to do a lot more of that. As the 2nd half went on it looked like both team's priority was a point.
 
Just back home from the England USA game

Truly dire

It was as if all the creativity and positives from the Iran game had been sucked out of them

Booed off at the end and then 1 hour slog back to find the car

Wales will probably thrash us

Couldn’t you walk to the stadium in less than an hour? I think my understanding of Qatari geography might be shaky.

Was at a friends birthday party in a cricket club. The footy was competing with an Abba tribute act and pseudo Abba won hands down.

Sadly no

They staged the game in Al Khor, about 30kms North of Doha where there are no metro or rail links forcing everyone to drive and then timing it to start at 10pm local time - on a Friday - which is the weekend here so the whole country on the road network

Ergo 68,000 people looking randomly for their car, uber or bus in the desert after midnight

The only positive was the stadium which despite having been involved in the early stages of construction I have not seen finished

Totally bonkers, a replica Bedouin tent and inside a ceiling looking like arabic rugs with the actual seating area shrunken inside - it is unbelievably good

God alone knows what they will use it for after the World Cup, I doubt there's 68,000 in the whole North of Qatar

Total madness

In a couple of millennia future archaeologists will unearth it and assume that north Qatar was once a fertile and heavily populated region….
