superkev Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Heard this talk sport not sure who was on there, some ex pro but saying it was what all teams do, first 11 are playing a and then an extra ball is thrown on to replicate ball being given away and then they work on recovering positions so it is only players who are not in first team that can play the opposition. Did Vardy touch ball other than the goal ? I agree on Alli, he as poor, but given back 4 look dodgy, sterling and Kane were rubbish, Alli similar, the rest must be doing ok Actually thought Alli was good in the second half. Got forward more, picked the ball up in more threatening positions and provided a great assist for the goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miamiwhite Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 If we win our group, it looks increasingly likely we'll end up playing Northern Ireland, then could play the winners of Switzerland or Poland in the quarters. Imperative we win our group now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madthatter Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Not getting carried away but feel positive about getting top spot now. Positive momentum and playing to your strengths seem to work for most successful sides at tournaments and we did the latter 2nd half and hopefully have some confidence and a monkey of our back going forwards. Great to see the pile on yesterday Defence still looks a bit dodge but Rooney in midfield is the right call and Dier looks very solid imo. We wont have as much possession against better teams i.e. Italy, Spain & ze Germans but I reckon playing a counter attacking game is probably better suited to our squad rather than trying to unpick the parked bus like yesterday. I reckon most teams watching our 2 games will be thinking 'don't fancy them much'. Think we could well paste someone if we get an early goal . . .

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted June 17, 2016 Site Supporter Share Posted June 17, 2016 Don't think alli has been at his best, but at spuds he gets put in with through balls or ones over the top. Not as easy for him to do this against a deep, packed defense. He was better when he dropped a little deeper and gave more depth to our play. Unlike sterling who stands in the front line too much offering little movement, reckon he's actually a bit dense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MalcolmW Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 If we win our group, it looks increasingly likely we'll end up playing Northern Ireland, then could play the winners of Switzerland or Poland in the quarters. Imperative we win our group now. It might be "increasingly likely", but it is still very much an outside chance. The only way it will happen is that Groups A and D are the two whose third team fail to progress. So if Croatia and Spain both win again today the chances improve significantly, but still less than 50%. Nor'n Ireland are guaranteed third or better, having beaten Ukraine, but still have a chance of direct qualification. What is for certain is that it is to NI's advantage to avoid any bookings in their final game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Lofthouse Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 https://www.facebook.com/awaydayfootball/videos/1115366958509469/ Could have gone either way that, just takes one decent sort and a hi 5 to defuse the situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
