England v Senegal - 4 December, 7pm

[RowlattsFox]

Love to see Maddison and Bellingham together.

Halt time has really come at the wrong time for us.

 

Even though we've just gone 2 up.

 

Started to play in the last 10/15.

How on earth are we 2-0 up?

 

We were utterly gash for most of that half, then unplayable the last 10 mins.

 

 

soon as we score we turn into a different team

Vital we got a second before half time, and we did.

[Super_horns]

Great football there .

Perfect counter attack .

[Bryn]

Bellingham well on his way to bring the best in the world. Think you’ve seen three of the soon-to-be perennial Ballon d’Or frontrunners today in Mbappe, Foden and Bellingham.

[StanSP]

Came to life 35mins onwards.

 

Amazing what happens when we play the ball quicker, and play the ball forwards. 

[Nalis]

Does Bellingham have a buy out clause?

 

If he doesnt then I think he's value has increased.....

Maddison to come on around 70 minutes.

They are both paid to win games, and you so far can’t argue with the results 

True. We are the Mark Selby of this World Cup. Capable of flair and excitement, but with an instinct to play negatively and constrict the opposition. I mostly don’t like it, but when we let loose like for the second goal it’s great to see. You have to respect it and it might actually be the perfect style to nullify and surprise France.

So much positive energy from Bellingham. I hope he doesn't get ruined.

[Lambert09]

it’s rare in football someone does the absolute perfect thing, but that by bellingham was exactly that. The decision making on when to move with the ball and what moment to release it is absolutely unreal. Perfect football from him.

Sure hope so.

[Aus Fox]

Classic England as soon as we score we relax and remember to play football. The longer we go without scoring the more nervous and poor we play.

I don’t get the Foden hype. What’s he done?

You’ll find post in the archives her with me saying we should have picked up Bellingham When he was relatively unknown and playing for Birmingham. He wouldn’t have been the player he is now though. He made the right decision

going to Dortmund. 

I searched Bellingham and your name and I can only see one post prior to Dortmund (could be user error searching though 😂)

[Nalis]

Play badly for most of the match, play well for 10 minutes, lead 2 nil.

 

Dare I say it, its what the best teams do quite often?

It worked against Germany in the Euros tbf

 

Although France are much better

That's what Senegal are gonna win.

The goal calmed the nerves down and made the Senalgalese shite themselves. 
I think it’s over. England will play keep ball now I expect.

The France game should be a fascinating encounter. I think they are the best team in the tournament personally. 
Beat them and it could just happen..

France pretty much did it today too. You have quality and it shines through for sure

Plus he's 6'1. He's the perfect prototype midfielder.

Poland gave them a good run for their money and looked shakey at times, but do have attacking flare.
