June 18, 20188 yr we were about 5 minutes away from some journolists putting on a tea towel and setting up mr southgate for a sting then.. the lucky bastards
June 18, 20188 yr This is absolute garbage. #Southgateout Yep. Embarrassing selection. Walker will never, ever be a centre back. Stones and Maguire are both appalling. Someone tell me what Lingard is? Feck all is all I can come up with. You're a fuckin massive Vann de Graaf generator. One hugely negative wanker. Fuck off
June 18, 20188 yr Everything went against us and we showed fight, 2nd half wasn't great, but it should have been a massive lead in the first half and we were robbed by VAR, justice that it's Kane who wins it.
June 18, 20188 yr First half as good as I've seen from us in a finals. 2nd half way to slow and pedestrian. I'd have taken that before though. Good enough
June 18, 20188 yr Not at our best but we deserved the win. Play like we did in the first 30 mins against Belgium and we have a chance
June 18, 20188 yr Proper buzzing! Win any way you can (and we deserved it) There’s some “bigger, better” sides in a worse off position than us after match day 1. Get in. Loved Southgates celebrations too
June 18, 20188 yr Everything went against us and we showed fight, 2nd half wasn't great, but it should have been a massive lead in the first half and we were robbed by VAR, justice that it's Kane who wins it. Well said dids. Top countries struggled so far; out lot, supposed no hopers stuck at it against a team of niggly persistent fouling team that weregard allowed to get away with it. Yes it was frustrating at times but they showed plenty of desire and hopefully more to come. Get the fuck in.
June 18, 20188 yr Very poor side Tunisia, should be beating them easily in reality Panama are even more woeful, after that we won’t get given any chances to get out of jail Panama needs to be much more convincing for the full 90
June 18, 20188 yr Sterling really is shit If we go further we are going to get a few chances in a game He needs 10 for every goal Dogshit
June 18, 20188 yr Very poor side Tunisia, should be beating them easily in reality Panama are even more woeful, after that we won’t get given any chances to get out of jail Panama needs to be much more convincing for the full 90 We should have won convincingly but our failure to do so was solely down to missing chances That can't continue
June 18, 20188 yr Birch, if the ref does his job and we get two penalties; we're coasting. Iirc, we're 11th in the world rankings, they're 21st. Not too far apart. In a warm night, we were never going to maintain that level all ninety minutes. Start slowly and get better through the tournament.
June 18, 20188 yr We should have won convincingly but our failure to do so was solely down to missing chances That can't continue Likewise we’ve conceded 1 without them really creating any chances We can’t do that either I’d give that 6/10, would have been 4/10 if it wasn’t for the late winner
June 18, 20188 yr We should have won convincingly but our failure to do so was solely down to missing chances That can't continue Agree with sterling but to be honest I'm not sure we can miss that many chances again. Miss hits etc. At least I hope not
June 18, 20188 yr 2 goals, 2 pens not given, 1x post, multiple sitters, multiple chances from set pieces Soft penalty for them and nothing for Pickford to do. Could have been 5/6/7 but 2nd half only got going when Rashford and Loftus-Cheek came on.
June 18, 20188 yr 5.5/10 Loads of positives in the first 25 mins... BUT the same worrying tournament freezing up and inability to break a average side down 2nd half. Chuffed for Kane. Lingard is always a goal threat. Rashford to start for me Vs Panama. Would happily see Loftus-Cheek in there for Henderson. Or Dier even. We need whoever is going to play in that role to move the ball forwards more rather than simply sideways/backwards. Onwards and upwards Edited June 18, 20188 yr by jimmyjoojar
June 18, 20188 yr Over a 48 game club season I get the whole bit about taking the positives and building momentum This is three games in two weeks then your into knockouts We’ve got to play a lot better than that on Sunday
June 18, 20188 yr Author Really happy with that. Really don’t the negativity. The set up and team selection was spot on. First half they shouldve been out of sight and second they spoiled the game as per. We carried on pressing, didn’t panic and stuck to the plan. And it worked. Why do folk seem to think we can just waltz up to a bank of ten, open them up and smash 4’s and 5’s in? Nobody in this comp would’ve done any better against that lot tonight. We did the job. Other years we’d have been booed off after going long ball for the last half hour.
June 18, 20188 yr We’ve got to play a lot better than that on Sunday I think only half of that overall performance will be enough to beat Panama, need to go out and get goals as that will surely be progression to the next round, 1st of 2nd might not matter to much, could be Brazil, could be Germany, could be Mexico.

June 18, 20188 yr I wanted to behind sterling His league campaigne deserved it He has to be dropped for rashford next game though
June 18, 20188 yr I think only half of that overall performance will be enough to beat Panama, need to go out and get goals as that will surely be progression to the next round, 1st of 2nd might not matter to much, could be Brazil, could be Germany, could be Mexico.1st or 2nd and you’ve got Poland or Colombia I wouldn’t want to go into that game with two narrow wins against Tunisia and Panama behind us. Sunday needs to be much better for confidence, I think we need to be bolder Edited June 18, 20188 yr by birch-chorley
June 18, 20188 yr 1st or 2nd and you’ve got Poland or Colombia Sorry I was getting carried away and thinking Quarter finals.
