England v Slovakia, WC Qualifier - 4/9/2017 @ 19:45

Top of the group. Undefeated. Close to qualifying now.

 

I know it's fashionable to slag England off but I'm not sure if anyone would have done a better job than Southgate has to date.

 

I said from day 1 we should stick with him and I haven't changed my mind.

You're going to have to start your own game thread with an attitude like that Izzy!

Deserved win. Imo Vardy should have come on after 70 mins as Alli tired(did Welbeck even touch the ball?) but you can't complain after a win.

Trouble is it's all well and good getting results against weak opposition but the tactics seem off and the games are just not entertaining. Obviously I couldn't do any better but we are going to be dire in Russia.

They weren't a bad side and the second half was entertaining.

Ish, trouble is I just saw a lot of selfish players and wasted opportunities. Obviously Rashford is a good player to look forward to but watching England just doesn't give me that excitement like club football does.

I didn't even notice Welbeck come on.

I want us to stick with Southgate, but nothing I've seen has shown any imagination or tactical nous that will allow us to actually stand a chance of beating a decent nation at a tournament. I still see the defensive frailties that will mean that an Iceland or a Scotland will always have a chance of upsetting us.

 

The use of subs tonight was cowardly, Ox should have been pulled before half time and Jake Livermore earning another cap for that...

By fun you mean our overweight Chavvy fans getting owned by the facist Russian thugs!

tbf though if Keys and Gray basically became outcasts for what they said, how is Hoddle not blacklisted from every media outlet in this country?

Some of the media outlets wanted him to be the national manager again.

The team plays in the image of the manager. Uninspiring and unimaginative.

Glad the pundits after the game have picked up on Alli being a massive dickhead. 

They've mostly stuck up for him though, he's a cûnt but because he's the poster boy he gets away with it.

I think the main problem with England is that it's a team full of individuals. Players either want to impress or get the limelight for themselves. I know any international player isn't going to be as close to their international team as they are with their club team mates but I can't see any England player which is like that.

Yeah but that was just him playing on the edge. Not as if he was acting like a spoilt little kid.

Alli can be an addition to any team but my goodness he seems to be an awful person.

 

People who aren't Leicester fans slag Jamie Vardy for it, but Alli seems as bad.

Kane and Alli are our best players and Cahill is a decent defender. Other than that we are horrendous.

 

Only another 9 odd months till our once every 2 years shit show
