So we’ve just told the world where we’ve been practicing to stick our pens so if we get to pens again, I can imagine the keeper will have an advantage unless we change takers or the takers change their spots.

Kane took 2 v panama that were unstoppable. His one's yesterday were totally different
Rashfords on was perfect. best of luck stopping it. I am sure he can switch sides.
dier i am sure just picked spot based on keeper
Henderson was read like a book awful.
Trippeir was smashing.


for me if we are really practising then each player has it down pat for either side.

I'd be more worried about oppoenents looking at pickford and thinking this boy lays down cos that pen where it was just rolled the other side as he dived before it was taken would give any team confidence..

sorry to hammer on about it in all seriousness (jests aside he did really well on last pen adjusting in mid dive to save) but the fact is if you critically look at that pen shoot out you will see him diving before the pen taker has even swung his leg.

Did anyone see a replay of the Pickford save? As far as I’m aware they never actually showed one.

No idea of it was actually even on target and how good it was.
 
thats nice.....

irrelevant but nice.

He was fitest england player and while others wilted he let dier stand about and made up for the others by really putting in the yeards

would love to know how many kms he covered last night.
You can't say it's irrelevant if they win when he's there and don't when he's not. You can't maybe place a lot of weight on it but it's hardly random.

the past has no bearing on the future game.

28.in a row.. great.

but how does that equate to England are sure to beat Sweden?

surely you take the game on its merits.. and btw England should have little to fear off Sweden

imo you need to look at exactly what games they are and see if a lot are qualifiers v lower teams or is he that great he turns England into top team.


it's the same as the stat that every game kane captains he scores... who did he score against?

would he have scored 100% v Belgium etc etc.

these are just stats and runs that end sometime.
