It was a move, but it was an awful corner to be bouncing up like that, brilliant finish which made it look better. It's the same corner routine we use at Spurs with Dier all the time
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted September 4, 2017 Subscriber Posted September 4, 2017 I gave up caring about England years ago but somehow they still manage to do my absolute head in every game.
Honey Honey Posted September 4, 2017 Posted September 4, 2017 It's the lack of composure that irritates me because I know they have it at club level. I have accepted that we have a pair of vanarama conference style centre backs and a goalkeeper that should wear jogging bottoms to indicate he's nuts. The players fitness looked a bit iffy tonight though. I've seen buses accelerate quicker than Eric Dier and Phil Jones looked like he's had a few nights out with Rooney.
Guest Posted September 5, 2017 Posted September 5, 2017 I didn't expect Burning Gold to have a pop at me of all people Anyways I stopped watching in the second half, but if England were as shit as they were in the first half then they are the ultimate result grinders. Its unbelievable how good they look in qualifying "on paper" but how shit they actually are. Meanwhile Martin Skrtel and Marek Hamsik are swimming the mediterrenean as we speak.

Marcus Fucking Rashford I still find it baffling that Solanke managed to win the golden ball at the U20 World Cup. That was for Jonjoe Kenny.
Administrator Stan Posted October 3, 2017 Author Administrator Posted October 3, 2017 The race for 2nd is more interesting than if England can/will finish top. Ironically, England could do Scotland a favour by beating Slovenia. Scotland could just help themselves to beat Slovakia as well though. Thursday 5th October England vs Slovenia Malta vs Lithuania Scotland vs Slovakia Sunday 8th October Lithuania vs England Slovakia vs Malta Slovenia vs Scotland
Dave Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 So tonight we hope to limp over the line looking completely unprepared when we play any half decent team because of the opposition within our group (that we've still managed to struggle against most of the time). Europe really need to consider altering the way these qualifiers are done to increase competition.

Well given their last two World Cups Italy and France don't, Spain were terrible in the previous World Cup, whilst Germany are the model we all want to follow. Increasing competition during the group stages will lead to more European teams being suitably prepared for the World Cup due to the more settled squads and grown confidence.
ScoRoss Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 It's not like European teams have struggled in the World Cup. Of the last 6 finalists, 5 have been European. Only Argentina made a final, which was in their home continent. Of the last 12 semi-finalists, 9 have been European. Seems the qualification system is fine for most big European teams.
Inverted Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 Fletcher, Morrison and Bannan in midfield. Fuck off.

Inverted Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 These rules on kit-clashes are mental. Instead of wearing blue vs their white, we're wearing our neon pink away kit.

South America easily has the most competitive qualifiers in the world, yet Europe is always the winner. Yes, there are more teams but the top teams in Europe are higher in quantity than the top teams in South America. For example, a nation like Argentina and Brazil will challenge. A team like Chile or Uruguay will trouble teams and perhaps get to the semi-finals but won't actually win it.

As a result you see dross has-beens playing rather than the actual talent that the people want to see. Difference is "what used to work" has never worked.
Inverted Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 Clear pen denied. Bannan and Morrison our worst players. Brilliant save from their goalie. This is how it feels to be Scotland.
Inverted Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 Lol imaging getting sent off for diving against Scotland. Disgusting cunt should retire now.
Subscriber Dan+ Posted October 5, 2017 Subscriber Posted October 5, 2017 Another drab half. Nothing will ever change with this side.

Said at the time for all it really is the icing on where we are as a team now, that result really wasn't THAT surprising to anyone who had seen both sides play in that tournament. I happen to agree too.
ScoRoss Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 Matt Philips is a waste of a shirt for Scotland tonight.
Inverted Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 This is dire. Been dominated ever since the red. We have Griffiths pressing their whole back line on his own, and we're a man up.
