I spent March 2020 until our recent promotion push just watching Bolton and that's it. Not even looking at results in our league let alone other leagues. Couldn't tell you more than 10% of prem players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We may have some talented players, unfortunately not in that position. Southgate needs to build his team around Foden and Kane, if he can't see that he's a clueless fool.

Burndens Bogs Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 I see similar patterns and shape in Englands play to what IE is attempting to achieve, except Englands players are faster, fitter, sharper mentally and have more skill obvs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burndens Bogs Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 I happen to think IE is making a fair fist of it, considering we are playing at the lowest level of English league football. He's obviously got a plan, lets see where it takes us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
