Absolutely no penetration or drive in this England team. Such straight lines football.

Do you think a Rooney/Walcott partnership up front would work? Walcott has been much better centrally this season like.

 

Bit of a myth really, he's hardly played upfront.

Just 5 times in the league. 6 in all comps in fact.

Anyone know how Josh McEachran did at Boro?

 

My Boro supporting mate thinks he's rubbish.

 

Mine said that, too. Doesn't think much of Sammy either.

 

Same. He hates most of their squad though; and the manager.

Tbf Arsenal over the last 6 months have kinda used a 4-2-2-2 they haven't had anyone on the left or the right.

 

Usually Arteta-Ramsey holding with Rosicky-Cazorla floating about with Walcott and Giroud/Podolski up top with fullbacks providing width, a lot like the way City play actually.

 

So even if it doesn't come up in the graphic like that i'd argue Walcott has been playing central since his new contract.

 

Although like with City's strikers he does have freedom to roam.

England were better in the second half but not an unfair result overall Ireland did just about enough defensively mostly thanks to Forde though. It's a good game to warm up for the real thing that is the qualifiers and I will be interested to see the next time the two of us play hopefully it'll be a competitive match just for the added edge.
