England playing a midfield of Alli, Henderson Lingard absolutely doesn't work. Final 20 minutes of the half we've looked clueless, just punting it forward.

Well VARs working great innit, the Tunisians are rugby tackling our players in full view.

 

[Embattle]

Shocking wasted chances.

 

[DaGaffer]

Good for fifteen minutes, then the usual laboured huffing and puffing. Ah well, three points in the bag.

 

[caLLous]

Eh, it's a win. We started off really *really* well, Dele should probably not have come back out after half time, he looked off the pace. Trippier was fantastic, Sterling was as bad in the final third as we've seen him for City. Walker has a calamity in him every time he plays, he made a potentially costly mistake a few minutes before he conceded the pen. Kane was manhandled to the ground in the box at least 3 times.

 

[DaGaffer]

I still think Sterling is fucking rubbish. He's fast but his decision-making is garbage. I'd start Rashford or even Vardy over him.

 

[Embattle]

Walcott mk2 for me so far, he needs to improve and soon.

 

[caLLous]

He's improved under Guardiola but more often than not he still shits the bed as soon as he gets anywhere near the opposition box.

Similarly with Walker, I still reckon he's the weak player in that City first 11, Tottenham did well to get £50m for him. I think he overestimates his ability or maybe he believes he can bail himself out with his pace when he fucks it up. A couple of minutes before the pen he made a mistake which I'm 100% certain I've seen him make with City where he let the ball run across his body in a dangerous position before turning onto it only to discover an opposition player right there.

Yay we got rid of lampard and scouser who cant play together so lets start getting into the newbies head that they cant either.

We do like a self fulfilling prophecy. .

Always has been.

 

[Scouse]

18 goals in 34 apps this season.

I don't like him, but he's a good player, like it or not.

He should have scored and aweful lot more. The number of times he runs into the box with the ball and then acts llike a rabbit caught in headlights. He scored as many as he did because man city were a good team and he got a lot of chances.

At least he's there to miss them...

Yeah Pepe. Diving cnut.

@CorNokZ Sorry for the loss against the aussies. Compliments of VAR.

 

[CorNokZ]

Loss? We drew. Second time around VAR got us tho.

 

[caLLous]

That Eriksen chap's a bit special, isn't he? He has apparently already signed a contract extension but if he hasn't he bloody needs to, Barcelona are supposedly looking at him instead of Griezmann. :\

Anyway, Caballero just did a whoopsie...

He is special. Been part of every goal we've scored for the passed 15 matches or so

Bye bye argies. Yayay revenge for hand of god

Watching Argentina get whupped never gets old.

 

[caLLous]

I haven't been impressed with any of the "favourites" so far.

Modric's goal:

 

[caLLous]

And 3.

 

[Litmus]

So, its confirmed. Ronaldo is actually the best player of his generation. He can litreley carry any team hes put in as proven at club and international level. Messi is great at barca with his world class team mates, but on any other occasion he goes missing. If he wasn't called Messi in Argentinian's last game no one would have realised he was even on the pitch

 

[Scouse]

And 3.

Wow. Look at their "defence". They were just standing around watching it. Not even trying.

 

[CorNokZ]

Cunts, haha

 

[Moriath]

Lol germans pull it put of the bag again.

 

[Embattle]

More like Sweden being useless.

 

[fettoken]

Mexico plays fucking dirty. Dragging it out, pulling fast ones, filming like no tomorrow and all kinds of shit.
