Lucas 3,827 Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 Well I've got tickets for tonight through work so I'll be popping along as it's just down the road. Actually quite up for seeing England as opposed to previous years, especially seeing Sancho start. Haven't seen much of him. If St Mary's can replicate anything like the atmosphere at Elland Road in the World Cup warm up game v Costa Rica I'll be happy. Going for a 2-0 England win tonight.

Machado 1,710 Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 Kosovo are surprisingly good for a new country of their size and have good chances of qualifying. They haven't lost in 15 games, playing against sides of similar or superior quality. I can see them scoring here. 3-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiley Culture 1,651 Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 We as England fans shouldn’t really take winning games like the qualifiers we typically face, with relative ease for granted, winning football matches is ultimately the most important thing and you can only win against what’s put in front of you, however, I do hope we get a bit of a test and get asked some questions here tonight by Kosovo.

Administrator Stan 18,383 Posted September 10, 2019 Author Administrator Share Posted September 10, 2019 Mistake by Keane. Kosovo 1 up. Shite from Keane. What is he thinking? Surely he knows Maguire was just chased down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Stan 18,383 Posted September 10, 2019 Author Administrator Share Posted September 10, 2019 And now Barkley and Keane involved in the equaliser. Corner from Barkley, Keane heads it across goal, Sterling nods in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Artful Dodger 1,831 Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 It's role reversed from what I remember. England good going forward poor at the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 Can't cheer that third goal. I know you don't have to put it out but just can't cheer an own goal when a kosovan player is down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smiley Culture 1,651 Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 Weird one this, I don’t think Kosovo have been awful. We’ve played worse sides in this group and done this to them. We’re absolutely deadly on the counter. Utterly ruthless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The space they leave a) behind their defence and b) between defence and midfield is just too much to handle. If they press to close that gap for b), they get punished. If they sit back, they get punished. I agree they've not been awful. Just far too much quality for them to manage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber Storts+ 2,424 Posted September 10, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted September 10, 2019 Sterling genuinely up there as one of the best players in the world. Sterling Kane Sancho has the potential to be the best front three in the world. It's already right up there. Shame we don't have any defenders. Promising midfielders coming through though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Gonzo 8,186 Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 Tell you what, that Declan Rice lad is one of the most overrated players I've ever seen in a while. And that's a pretty terrible fucking error from him there, absolutely unforced as well. A bit worrying that we've got some players capable of making shocking errors that'll lead to a side like Kosovo scoring twice on us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
