mozy Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 For too long we've tried to shoehorn the best 11 players into a side, much better to pick the 11 players who form the best team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interpolic Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 After last nights performance I've no confidence in woy been clever enough to pick a team that doesn't contain Rooney for the benefit of the team That's it like, I was thinking that a front six of Lallana-Alli-Dier-Sterling/Kane-Vardy would be well balanced enough then I realised Rooney wasn't in there so it's not going to happen. This is why I was against him going to the tournament at all, he doesn't get treated like a normal player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4 Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Exaggerating, but because it stopped any positive substitution from happening, you could say scoring the goal cost us the win Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayson Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Hodgson on Kane's corners: "Yes, he's the best striker of the ball we have. He's the one who gives us the best delivery. We've tried many other players and we don't get the same level of delivery. "We also have so many players in the penalty area who are very good at attacking the ball - Wayne Rooney being one - that we don't necessarily need Harry there. "We need him more on the ball, taking the kick, because that's our best chance of scoring." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty66 Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 "don't get the same level of delivery" They're International footballers ffs I hate the idea of trying to pick out a specific man at corners as it never works (see Williamson,Mike),and even if it does after one corner the opposition gets wise to it and your set penis plan is hanging out of the window. Just get it in the area and attack it ffs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

M4 Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Even if that statement from Hodgson is factually true, I'd imagine the advantage you get from having him on deliveries doesn't outweigh the advantage you'd have of putting, say, your second best player on deliveries and your main striker and goal threat inside the box. It's not as if he's Beckham-like either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayson Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Not like he scored from a knock down from a corner against Germany a few weeks ago either to suggest he might be more useful at doing things like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marmoset Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Can see his logic but yeah, if only for his insticts should the ball start fumbling about in the area I'd have him in there. How many goals did he score from corners last year? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevo Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Corner kick taker debates really annoy me with professional footballers. Definitely a pet hate. Anybody should be able to cross a ball in the box, beating the first man most of the time and not hitting it beyond the back post most of the time.

Aye, if you want to to be headed away 10 times of our 10 or the 'keeper to come and catch it 10 times out of 10. Taking a very good corner a lot more difficult than most think and requires a lot of skill. Any pro could do as you say but would be cleared easily by the defence every single time.
