We may as well come home now. Whats the point in even going through, this team is awful. As soon as we play a half decent team we'll lose anyway

 

 

Not even being able to beat Slovakia and Russia ffs. Embarrasing

They just put everyone behind the ball, defended well tbf

 

We needed Vardy & Sturridge both upfront, but Sturridge came way to deep & tried to act as playmaker isolating Vardy against a defence already sitting back.

So our route is now:

 

Last 16: Group F runner up (any of Portugal, Hungary, Iceland or Austria)

QF: probably France

SF: probably Germany or Italy

Final: probably Spain

 

Other half of the draw was significantly less tough.

Dier is fucking class. The rest are shit/out of form.

 

Not having any width is a massive problem, like.

 

Jordan Henderson, man. He's so utter pointless.

Roy's an idiot. Arrogance has cost us.

Nah, his tactics cost us.  Whatever personnel would have struggled to score in that system.

 

fwiw, we'll do better against the stronger sides in the knockout phases playing it.  Would have been nicer if we had a path that was more likely to avoid some of the big hitters in the quarters.

If woy hadn't treated this game like a friendly ffs

 

He's so, so bad man.

 

His nice guy exterior is kevlar because he should be gone.

Dyke talking about a contract extension today was chilling

Henderson thick as fuck.

 

He was fucking awful. Classic case of give him a game cos he's a nice lad who's had a decent couple of seasons.

 

Offers nothing at international level and never has. Run-of-the-mill premier league midfielder who hasn't/can't do anything out of the ordinary at any time.

We don't need him at all when we have Dier on the pitch like, it's frustrating as anything when he gets the ball out wide, which happens a lot in this system. Fuck knows why he finished the game.

Should have won, but the attack was often a bit slow and deliberate, and by the time a shooting opportunity came up, the opposition was well set to get a block in. Hopefully we'll find more space playing against a team that's prepared to attack more.

 

I think the problem with Sturridge is that whilst he's good, he's not as good as he thinks he is. Occasionally aspiration and ability meet in the middle and we get something, but a lot of the time he either loses possession or misses an obvious pass by looking for something marvellous. He must be very difficult to play with because you never know when he's going to give you the ball.
