Rincewind Posted 14 June 2015 Posted 14 June 2015 Anyone see Claire Balding (sp) show? Gazza Stuart Pierce and David Seaman were on. Gazza was saying that when he stopped playing he was devastated as all he ever wanted to do was to play football. He said he struggles to watch games now because it hurts to see the lack of passion in some players.
foxes_rule1978 Posted 14 June 2015 Posted 14 June 2015 I'm going to try to stay awake through this one... will be tough though, wasn't awake for long for the Ireland game
Jam Posted 14 June 2015 Posted 14 June 2015 when is the team named? do i stay up for this? Normally an hour or so before kick off. I would, I should think the players will be more 'switched on' today. I pray. Dear god.
Vacamion Posted 14 June 2015 Posted 14 June 2015 I'm going to miss the game. I'll be on a flight. As such, I'm hoping boring 1-0 victory.
kingfox Posted 14 June 2015 Posted 14 June 2015 God forbid if he starts Milner & Lallana again. Hart Clyne Cahill Smalling Bertrand Henderson Wilshere Walcott Rooney Sterling Austin
Matt Posted 14 June 2015 Posted 14 June 2015 God forbid if he starts Milner & Lallana again. Hart Clyne Cahill Smalling Bertrand Henderson Wilshere Walcott Rooney Sterling Austin You seriously reckon Woy will be that bold to start with Austin? I can't see him making such a positive move. I thought he [Woy] did a good job in the Euro's, we did better than anyone expected (Expectations were at an all time low though and probably still are) but since he's been useless and boring, last week was the final nail in the coffin as far as i'm concerned, friendly or not. I'm normally a 'It's not the manager in the players fault' guy when it comes to lack of effort but he chooses the squad but fails to change anything/try different things.
Xen Posted 14 June 2015 Posted 14 June 2015 God forbid if he starts Milner & Lallana again. Hart Clyne Cahill Smalling Bertrand Henderson Wilshere Walcott Rooney Sterling Austin Drop Sterling and play Vardy instead, and I'd agree with that. Sterling is the more skilful - obviously - but his workrate isnt there at the minute and he needs to get his head sorted. Walcott will put a shift in as he tries to get his place back permanently, and he's on good form at the moment. Rooney is England's best player on his day, and despite his performance last week I think he'll do very well today, and Austin will obviously want to make the most of it. Add Vardy to the mix and that's a very high-intensity front 4 which will cause Slovenia lots of problems, particularly with Wilshere and Henderson looking to push things forwards as well, and the support from the FBs.

I'm normally a 'It's not the manager in the players fault' guy when it comes to lack of effort but he chooses the squad but fails to change anything/try different things. Nope but if I was him I'd like to see Austin start, Rooney was shit up front on his own against Ireland, while poor support from Lallana & Sterling didn't help matters. Rooney has been playing behind a main striker whether it be Sturridge or Kane, so why not have the same with Austin. What I find is he sticks with his favourites instead of going for in form players, yes he picked Vardy & Austin but he has also included players like Lallana, who quite frankly on this season's form shouldn't be in the squad. Off form players just don't help matters, the team then play in a negative manner because players like Milner & Lallana don't offer anything. If he starts players like Walcott, Vardy & Austin they offer something better, Walcott is in form, you can guarantee 100% from Vardy while Austin will want to make a statement. Even though he includes those players in his 23 man squad, he overlooks them in big matches & would rather stick with Lallana, Sterling, Rooney etc... when they might not be the best option. Hopefully he is bold & brave tonight and goes for a line up similar to mine.
The Year Of The Fox Posted 14 June 2015 Posted 14 June 2015 £1.50 pints and shit loads of Leicester out there today. Missed out on this big time
LAprice_ Posted 14 June 2015 Posted 14 June 2015 Whatever the team is, you can almost guarantee Townsend and Barkley being subbed on between 55-65 mins.
Dan Posted 14 June 2015 Posted 14 June 2015 What possesses him to actually choose to play an out of form centre back at right back over an inform right back? I'm trying to avoid jumping on the "he picks players because they play for Man Utd or Liverpool" bandwagon but it's seriously hard not to.
lgfualol Posted 14 June 2015 Posted 14 June 2015 Our team is just so boring. Ooo gee whizz, Jones at RB! 1-0 England Townsend 67th minute.
kingfox Posted 14 June 2015 Posted 14 June 2015 Well he continues to be a clueless cvnt. Jones, Gibbs, Delph, Sterling & Townsend . How the hell can he not start Clyne & Walcott.
foxfanazer Posted 14 June 2015 Posted 14 June 2015 Been struggling to sleep recently but I'm sure Woy and his dynamic team selection will help me out
LAprice_ Posted 14 June 2015 Posted 14 June 2015 Gerrard and Lampard would both stroll into that England team.
Dan Posted 14 June 2015 Posted 14 June 2015 I'd pick Townsend over Walcott at the minute. Townsend turns up for England far more than Walcott does. I will be amazed if this isn't drab as hell. Under 2.5 a banker.
foxfanazer Posted 14 June 2015 Posted 14 June 2015 Gerrard and Lampard would both stroll into that England team.Anthony Gerrard and Frank Lampard Snr?
foxfanazer Posted 14 June 2015 Posted 14 June 2015 Guatantee Rooney 1-0 and everyone will bang on about our 100% record
ScouseFox Posted 14 June 2015 Posted 14 June 2015 What a depressing team. What is andros townsend doing anywhere near a football pitch let alone an England starting XI
foxes_rule1978 Posted 14 June 2015 Posted 14 June 2015 You been struggling to sleep? Not sure what to do? Tried everything imaginable with no success? Well we have the solution, tune in ITV 17:00 Woy Hodgson's England team take to the field...
