purpleronnie Posted 18 June 2018 Posted 18 June 2018 Going exactly as I had feared. Said before the WC can we just have one tournament where we don't do something stupid....seems not. Defence still a huge concern for us, and that's against only a decent team. Just hope we don't rue all those chances, you really can't afford to miss so many. C'mon ENGLAND!!!!
Sir Shep Posted 18 June 2018 Posted 18 June 2018 No point in bringing Vardy on if the midfield won’t pass to him!
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 18 June 2018 Posted 18 June 2018 Yeah Lingard should have a hat trick at least. He's shagged two chances I'd fancy myself to put away with no bother.
Ian Nacho Posted 18 June 2018 Posted 18 June 2018 Their penalty wasnt one and England should've had one when Kane got rugby tackled.
Wymsey Posted 18 June 2018 Posted 18 June 2018 Lingard is either very unlucky or wasteful. I'm suspecting the latter.
Jaspa Posted 18 June 2018 Posted 18 June 2018 (edited) I'd consider dropping Walker for Cahill, shift Stones to RCB, same system. We cant afford Trippier & Walker, Walker is shouting at his own team mates in the first 15 and gave that sloppy pen away. Main problem is defence, I thought it'd be midfield Lingard is frustrating and a complete luxury player but he might actually do something 1/5. It's all about how we react Edited 18 June 2018 by SpazticChicken
Trav Le Bleu Posted 18 June 2018 Posted 18 June 2018 Lingard would be kicking himself at half-time, but he missed. 1
adam Posted 18 June 2018 Posted 18 June 2018 I dont understand var. Who calls for it? How do they decide if to look at a decision or not? It's a load of shite
MC Prussian Posted 18 June 2018 Posted 18 June 2018 Lingard - wasteful Sterling - please swap him for somebody useful Walker - plain stupid You can‘t waste so many chances on an international level. Woeful conversion rate, apart from Kane‘s effort. Best players so far have been Henderson and Trippier.
KingsX Posted 18 June 2018 Posted 18 June 2018 That was a more one-sided half than anything Russia produced against the Saudis or even Belgium v Panama. I think you'll be fine. But was that five, or SIX sitters fluffed? I literally lost count. 1
danny2997 Posted 18 June 2018 Posted 18 June 2018 Sterling has been awful, not surprised no one's bringing it up like they did when they full on slated Vardy during the Costa Rica match either. 2
Tuna Posted 18 June 2018 Posted 18 June 2018 Hugely disappointing first half, We've looked very good and really should be at least 2-0 up, but our composure in front of goal is rubbish, Sterling and Lingard just seem to panic in the box. We should have had a stonewall penalty and there's was simply NOT a penalty. Fvcking fuming. Not sure what to do but I'd like to see another Striker on, not bothered who someone who can finish would be a start.
foxfanazer Posted 18 June 2018 Posted 18 June 2018 Ferdinand bang on. Awful positioning and decision by Walker
Kitchandro Posted 18 June 2018 Posted 18 June 2018 Lol it was a certain penalty. Even the massively biased BBC thought it was. Clearly VAR didn’t do its job though cos England should have had one too. If Russia beat Saudi Arabia 5-0 then England should be beating this lot by a similar distance at least. No excuses, if they don’t hammer these and up the goal difference because they haven’t got enough strikers who can finish on the pitch, they deserve to get the more difficult tie in the 2nd round. 1
MC Prussian Posted 18 June 2018 Posted 18 June 2018 This is a game that needs some Vardy magic, showing the youngsters how it‘s done. 1
coolhandfox Posted 18 June 2018 Posted 18 June 2018 Same old England, square pegs in round holes in Walker and Sterling.............

The Doctor Posted 18 June 2018 Posted 18 June 2018 Lingard has had the easiest hat-trick you'd ever get, and hasn't even scored one...
