  1. Reminded me of that Bellamy story where he kicked off at Carver in the airport I think, must have been before travelling somewhere for a game, and Bellamy was all ready to leave and sack it off, and he said Robson put his arm around him, started talking to him and walking with him and all of a sudden he was on the plane
  2. Also a bit distraught at England's lack of genuine Centre Midfielder quality. Control, passing, rhythm, intelligence... Just DMs and number 10s.
  3. As much as I love Sterling, he has to be dropped for Foden. Foden and Saka either side is easily our best attack. Mount starting so high up centrally and Kane dropping back just means we have too many centrally. We need to push Kane forward by moving the ball up the sides rather than through the middle, then those behind can support rather than hinder.
  4. Was mad how far back he was so often, compared to where we'd usually see him. Definitely been told.
  5. USA didnt fight out a draw, mind. They cruised towards a draw missing the quality to win it.
  6. If you could score you'd be decent. Maguire was our MotM because he cleaned up pretty much every half chance that materialised in our box, which says a lot. He wasnt amazing, but he wasnt really under pressure.
  7. We're making it so easy for them. The US are playing well, and a bit more quality and/or experience and they'd be a good couple of goals up. Not having someone attacking the back post at that last corner is criminal but that's the opportunities we're allowing.
  8. Not at all unexpected. Feels a bit like 'keep a clean sheet and nick a goal'. Moving all our players slowly up the pitch against a pacey counter attacking side seems like the wrong idea to me.
  9. You going to get a load of French ringers in again? All of a sudden Mbappe has American grandparents or something.
