Guest chopey Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 0 likeable players, mind. Sterling's ok. I think this is the issue, the entire team is characterless Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Agree about Rice but Winks is decent. Winks is genuinely good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Aye I like Winks. Be good if he could add goals to his game, then he'd be a good all-rounder. He's obviously very combative. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Kosovo will be a top 60 ranker in a few years. Definitely don’t agree that this is a bad England team, don’t think I’ve seen any team annihilate the opposition in so many games in qualifying.

Guest Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 I’m surprised to see people think that as well. Stacks of talent particularly going forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Put in Ashley Cole, Rio Ferdinand, Sol Campbell and David Seaman and this team wins the World Cup. There lies the problem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happinesstan Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Put in Ashley Cole, Rio Ferdinand, Sol Campbell and David Seaman and this team wins the World Cup. There lies the problem. Think we'd lack pace and mobility at the back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 I can't really remember how good Seaman was either. Obviously he's iconic in his way, but I can't remember if he's actually better than the keepers we have now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 He was miles better than the ones we've got now wasn't he? Pickford seems to be dropping clangers every other week Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Yeah but Pickford might not be first choice for very long, consensus seems to be we have a good selection of young keepers. Also we hate Pickford because he's Pickford. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmojorisin75 Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Put in Ashley Cole, Rio Ferdinand, Sol Campbell and David Seaman and this team wins the World Cup. There lies the problem. putting aside the nuances of those individual players we completely lack a player that can dictate a game at the highest level in an attacking sense, we have my entire life and nothing is different now none of those players would change that we have some good attacking players but no one of the highest level pulling the strings, until we have one of them we'll win fuck all unless we get very lucky Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmojorisin75 Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 sterling/sancho are of the same ilk imo, pacy dangerous wide forwards but they don't run games at the top level maddison could be the one we're looking for but he'll probably need to leave leicester soon and get some proper CL experience Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCormick Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 I mean Sterling has got to be one of the top 5 attacking players in world football, but I guess that depends on what you mean by 'dictating' games, really. I do think though, that this is the first England team in my lifetime that's actually underrated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 i think that's debateable but he's obviously very good and i've always been a fan of his when it comes to the crunch england are too easy to shut down, sit deep and stifle the wide attacking players also crowding kane out - when you come up against that you need a player than can do something different and open teams up with the ball and i don't think we have it sure strerling or sancho might skin a player with a bit of skill or whatever but that's a shot in the dark and not an overall plan about how to play, imo - i reckon we need an ACM that can pull the strings and utilise the pace and quality we have up front when it counts, it's no good dicking loads of shite teams and fucking it up when it counts Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 It’s not like other teams aren’t without their issues, flaws and selection problems. There is no outstanding national side at the moment and England are as strong as any, certainly in attack. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no outstanding national side at the moment and England are as strong as any, certainly in attack. Hard to argue against that with regard to the Euro's. France, Belgium, England are my top contenders. (More than obvious from the Group stages, but there's always an outlier or two that finds form during the tournament) Generally excited for England in this, easily the best team since the 90's, early 00's.

Look at Maddison who I’m not convinced is a top player, but he’s creative and a better option in there than most. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 I’ve pretty much always liked watching England, blessed relief from club football. This team is very likeable IMO, Sterling in particular is setting a great example at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
