Ikon Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Modric is a phenomenal player, like. Glides across the pitch and drags his team forward. Hope Croatia go on to win it. I really think that Modric is the best player in the world. Top 3 easily.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggs Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Alli to me seems like one of those players who for some reason will just never replicate their club for their country, maybe I'm harsher on Alli as he would generally be considered the better player of the two but I much prefer Lingard like. Alli was being played out of position tbf Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having Eriksen to aliviate the burden will always help. Was saying to some cunt that he needs to find a happy medium. Either class or anon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Will I get shot down for saying Kane’s been a let down? Think he’s been poor when it mattered most, barely saw him after the deflected goal against Panama. Kane's record in big games ain't really that good This season just gone he scored against Dortmund, Liverpool, Arsenal, Juventus. Only 24 as well. Dortmund aren't very good. Juve was a penalty, no? Or did he get two? That's two out of the top 6 like, nowt special Two out of the top 6 in one season and two big European teams, and like I said he's 24, he'll learn new ways to score.

Jackie Broon Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Will I get shot down for saying Kane’s been a let down? Think he’s been poor when it mattered most, barely saw him after the deflected goal against Panama. He had clearly been asked to drop deep and support midfield leaving Stirling/Rashford to push forward. He did that well, but I think he and the team would've benefited from him as a lone target man with an extra midfielder when we had obviously lost control of midfield tonight, in the 2nd half against Colombia and Sweden. Southgate has done a brilliant job of building team spirit but he's been literally one-dimensional tactically. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really think that Modric is the best player in the world. Top 3 easily.. If they win the World Cup and he doesn't get the Ballon d'Or, there's seriously something wrong with football. Felt he was Real Madrids best player in the CL for large parts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Could have sworn Kane scored against Real Madrid as well, but it was just an assist. Either way he was outstanding. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 No shame tonight. It's been a great run and couple of weeks. It's allowed to many of us to reconnect with the national side and I think that's great. For the match itself - we had no-one in midfield to change the game, as Croatia gradually got on top. That's why Jonjo Shelvey should have gone - because he can take a risk and pass the ball forwards. Eric Dier isn't going to do that! Have had a cracking night at the local club, with my family. Everyone stay safe, as doubtlessly some nuggets will see it as an opportunity to cause bother. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colos Short and Curlies Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 So Kane can't score in July or August, just loves a summer holiday really. Good news is that he should have the shooting boots on for all of the next one Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Kane and Alli are too deep. One averages like 7 shots a game for Spurs but too deep for England. Alli? Barely a midfielder imo. Short passing is not good. He’s a final third player like Mueller. But that’s not why we lost. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 I'm frustrated tbh, I thought we beat ourselves tonight. When we came out for the second half we sat back and allowed them to gain control and never really recovered. Great run though and gives hope for the future instead of the usual dread, but it does feel like a missed opportunity. The other thing is while he might not score, tonight showed Sterling's value to the team IMO. We literally can't build attacks without him, isn't the first time it's happened this tournament either.
