England Thread

[greenall90]

England squad in full:
Goalkeepers: Fraser Forster, Joe Hart, Tom Heaton
Defenders: Ryan Bertrand, Gary Cahill, Nathaniel Clyne, Phil Jones, Michael Keane, Luke Shaw, Chris Smalling, John Stones, Kyle Walker
Midfielders: Dele Alli, Michail Antonio, Ross Barkley, Eric Dier, Adam Lallana, Jesse Lingard, Jake Livermore, Alex Oxlade Chamberlain, Nathan Redmond, Raheem Sterling, James Ward-Prowse
Forwards: Jermain Defoe, Jamie Vardy, Marcus Rashford

If this is the sort of squad we are taking to the world cup then I worry.

Worst England squad I've seen i think.....So they will probably do well

If he plays, most definitely.

Another Giggs scenario between England and Wales.

Giggs was never eligible to play for England though so it really isn't

Did I imagine he played for England schoolboys?

I may be wrong but I thought it came down to England and Wales back then?

He did play for the England schoolboys but your eligibility for them is purely based on where you are going to school. Both his parents are Welsh as well, under a rule change that happened in 2009 he could have played for England but he had picked up a lot of Wales caps by then and had retired from international duty

No ****? Huh. Aint' that something. Honestly always thought he'd switched allegiance at youth level.

You learn something new every day. Ta.

England fans: Why 'banter' defence doesn't work - Football365

Nothing new but it just reinforces why so many have little to no interest in the National team.

'Enjoy' Russia shitbags.

 

[Scouseinthehouse]

Because I'm hot and bored .....

Heck that's an average International squad. Not hard to see why England are so far behind the major Nations.

Well. To put it bluntly. We were **** today. How did Scotland not take the 3 points?! We were woeful

Coz they are ***** as well...

 

[ninjaskill]

Thank god for Harry Kane would never have heard the end of this if they had won with two late goals

 

[djs1]

such a shame i was too busy to watch the game....

 

[ajt09]

Rashford taking corners certainly got the alarm bells ringing for me tbh

 

[wkdsoul]

You didnt miss anything.. just watch the last 10mins

 

[kitchin75]

or just dont bother at all is the best way

 

[ajt09]

You didnt miss anything.. just watch the last 10mins

Unless you have insomnia. First 80 mins did enough to cure the problem..........

 

[Theatre of dreams]

Dog ****! Very lucky to get anything from that tbh. Not surprised with Dier and Livermore in CM. Rashford thrown out wide right. Lallana not being used to his best like at Pool. Just looked very unbalanced. And like Southgate trying to fit the best attacking playing in the side atm.

 

[wkdsoul]

So where else do you put Rashford, he aint ready to lead the line. His pace is his best asset, its either wide or Impact Sub

 

[djs1]

so sad,watching england has never been so painful has it

He either starts up top or not at all for me.
