Michael 1,117 Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 Denmark controlling most of the play here against Croatia and they've created most of the chances so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael 1,117 Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 Cornelius produced a powerful swerving shot from outside the area, that forced the Croatian keeper Livakovic into an excellent save. Big chance there by Denmark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael 1,117 Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 Cornelius put the ball into the net with a close range tap in, but the goal is not allowed as there was a foul in the build up play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Stan 18,389 Posted June 11, 2022 Author Administrator Share Posted June 11, 2022 Abraham starts up front. Ward-Prowse and Rice as the defensive midfielders. Tomori partnering Maguire at the back. Sterling, Mount & Grealish just behind Abraham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,669 Posted June 11, 2022 Subscriber Share Posted June 11, 2022 I was going to watch this and had the build up on but then I heard Michael Owen's voice and within 120 seconds I suddenly bad Better Call Saul on the television instead. Funny that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan 18,389 Posted June 11, 2022 Author Administrator Share Posted June 11, 2022 Good start from both. Especially pressing-wise. Mount has had two opportunities, and Abraham one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny 2,207 Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Turning into a very bitty game, feel like when we’re playing out from the back we don’t entirely know where we should be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny 2,207 Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Think Ramsdale might end up edging Pickford out of the team with his kicking. I don’t think Ramsdale will be about world class level anytime soon but I think he’s gunna be stepping above Pickford for England. I like seeing Mount play a central role rather than on the wing and him and Grealish interacting is good fluidity for us. Rice and Ward-Prowse have shown a decent passing range too. There was one moment where Ward-Prowse won the ball back in their half but was at a dodgy angle so decided to play the ball over the top of Italy’s defence. Abraham came short and the ball went long, feel like it was a good move from JWP in a tight space with not a lot of options and it didn’t come off because him and Tammy don’t play regularly together and the reading of each other’s play wasn’t there. If we’ve had any problems today it’s that, lack of cohesion but to be expected when you’re giving out game time. Overall a decent half but the chances dried up after the initial flurry. Grealish not disproving the notion that he should be a super sub, been decent on the ball outside the area but he should be much more direct too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cicero 5,267 Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Declan Rice just cannot be the lone DM in a team that’s looking to be more progressive on the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plays in a back 3 for West Ham and is more of a box to box there. Think it’s why Kalvin Phillips plays whenever he’s fit as he stayed on the pitch at the Euros when Rice was subbed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And rightly so. Despite the off-the-ball pressing, I sense we're not speedy or dynamic enough on the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno, if we’re looking at playing the ball out Ramsdale has better distribution and is calmer than Pickford. But I do get what you mean, Southgate loves Pickford Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,669 Posted June 11, 2022 Subscriber Share Posted June 11, 2022 Pickford has been England's best and most reliable goalkeeper in my lifetime and Ramsdale isn't even that good yet. Pope had a better case at his peak. I like Ramsdale and I think he'll be the next one eventually. I could understand him getting fast tracked if Pickford became a problem for England but at this point in time the debate is premature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering the season Ramsdale has just had for Arsenal I think it’s a fair debate to have. Think the issue atm is less Pickford being better than Ramsdale and more Southgate reluctance to move away from players who have been proven to perform for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
