Dan LCFC Posted 30 May 2016 Share Posted 30 May 2016 We don't need to worry about image. If we have to play a direct, physical game and it works then great. You don't get prizes for nice football and an early exit. I think we've been wedded to a belief that playing expansive football is the only "right" way of playing and we should be ashamed to be pragmatic and win. That's exactly my point, but I'm not sure he sees it that way. Hodgson was never known for his style of football, he was generally a manager in that kind of mould. It isn't great to watch but it might just nick us the odd draw or win we weren't expecting. That's what we got in 2012 - not a particularly memorable tournament but our best in years (which is quite worrying) given the circumstances. We just aren't an expansive type of side. Go toe to toe playing Germany that way and they'll beat us, and I'm not talking about their reserves either like in March. On the subject of players, Rooney I've made my feelings clear on on a number of occasions but I agree with whoever said he's looking a lot sharper of late. I'd definitely be pointing fingers at players like Lallana, Sterling and Barkley before Rooney. I haven't got a clue what Lallana or Barkley offer.

Mywifehitmuzzybyaccident Posted 30 May 2016 Share Posted 30 May 2016 So the best defensive English central midfielder this season who has played every game against all possible competitors and utterly outclassed them all is to be left behind for a liability who has played about 2 proper games this season ....gotta love woy !!!!

If Drinkwater himself did it he might actually get on the plane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
