England National Team - Three Lions On The Shirt

Dunno why you think that. Trippier at LB is a bit odd, but it maybe that Southgate is rotating the squad and we see Shaw and/or Chilwell in the other group games. And he likes Sterling, so unless his form is as bad in the group games as it is in Man City, he will likely play.

 

We should top the group, but no chance with Southgate. We’re finishing the group with 1 or 2 points. Draw or lose today, draw with the Czech’s, and lose to the Scots.

 

T-Rex arms in goal
Walker at RB instead of James
CB options are horrible regardless. Why Tomori wasn’t called up is shocking.
Trippier at LB is woeful. Immediately brings us inside and the left side closed down.
Two holding midfielders
Sterling starting.
No Sancho, Grealish or Shaw starting.

Enough reasons there for me to think that.

I hope we win, doubtful with that line up.

 

England would beat Germany at Wembley imo. They have already beaten Belgium at home in the last year. And Spain away. And England will be playing their games by and large at home. The Maguire injury might hold them back, they could do with him returning by the time the knockouts start.

 

Walker and James at RB can both do a job. Toss of a coin whichever you prefer. Maguire injury not ideal. Trippier at LB looks a bit odd, but it may be a rotation policy by the manager. Two holding midfielders, nothing wrong with that if that is what the manager prefers, got less chance of conceding that way. The attacking players, we have some depth there, so not everyone will agree with selections, just let them get on with it and see if they can do a job.

 

Awful awful team selection. The back 7 are dreadful. The attacking 4 are good but will no doubt play dull safe slow football.

 

Our ******* fans booed the Croatian anthem. No standing for me, I'm staying on the sofa for ours.

Man of principle.

 

Is it just me or does Phil Foden have the look of a maniac about him?

 

Oooooooh!

 

Beans!

 

England looking good.

But it’s hot, it’s Croatia, no one would be surprised with 2-1 to them

 

Decent start to be fair. Not bothered by shaw. Trippier gives us set piece options. Sterling looks poor so far

 

Trippier just has to think Croatia are Watford and he will have a brilliant game. Every time a coconut when he plays us..

 

The game so far is showing exactly why England need a plan B aka Vardy. Croatia marking Kane out of the game and completely anonymous.

 

It’s all set up for JG to come on and win it

 

Dull after the first 15 minutes. Kane awol and the pace of the game has dropped to glacial.

 

Surely Trippier?

 

Final stage of the Tour of Switzerland better spectacle at the moment.

 

Second best striker in the world and he's had about 5 touches. Get the handbrake off Southgate!

 

Nah John Gorman is well past it.

 

'Pretty impressive Alan', 'yeah very impressive'.

1 shot on target. 0.16xG. Kane and Mount anonymous.

Lol BBC.

 

Kyle Walker showing the class that would make him a natural signing for us.

 

A footballing masterclass from Walker

 

Yeah he's done even less so far than Moore and Seferovic did yesterday, he's clearly crap - don't want!

 

Yeeeeeeeesssss!

 

Kalvinnnnnn

 

Kane’s nose has been banged back into shape, so no panic.

 

Kane misses an easy chance - woeful striker! Complete donkey. I'd rather Gray.

 

Rebic now sends a good chance miles wide of the post. 11 goals for AC Milan last season? No chance. Should be in the Championship.

 

Why has Rashford got the wrong kit on? Bizarre.
