S_81 802 Posted October 17, 2023 Bound to be a Southgate bore-fest. With him again puzzled why the fans don’t want to lovingly embrace the now over the hill and playing in a tin pot league - Jordan Henderson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unthink road 132 Posted October 17, 2023 Looking forward to this game. Southgate has proved he can deliver to a certain level, now he must find the way to move to the next level. Tournament football is different. He's been within touching distance. In game management decides good coaches from greats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cambridgeshire canary 6,735 Posted October 17, 2023 Maguire and Phillips starting again.. What do we think the chances are that Southgate will come out after the match just like he did with Jordan Henderson and be all 'I just don't understand why they got booed..' 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 3,821 Posted October 17, 2023 People are criticising England's lineup, but Italy's contains a few surprises too. Bastoni is, in my opinion, a better centre back than either of the two on the pitch, Dimarco is a top left back but not starting and I'm surprised Raspadori isn't playing ahead of either El Shaarawy or Scamacca.

cambridgeshire canary 6,735 Posted October 17, 2023 (edited) Phillips getting a yellow less than ten minutes in.. Almost like he's rusty beacause he hardly plays club football or something Edited October 17, 2023 by cambridgeshire canary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Midlands Yellow 3,995 Posted October 17, 2023 (edited) Cracking match but I’ve decided to leave it after ten minutes to do some ironing. Got 6/1 on Italy though. Edited October 17, 2023 by Midlands Yellow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pyro Pete 1,897 Posted October 17, 2023 Maguire leaves the six yard box completely undefended and Italy score. To be fair though, Stones goes AWOL. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted October 17, 2023 A penalty is the only way we look like scoring. No red card? Is a penalty and a yellow deemed enough punishment? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted October 17, 2023 So we have Stones just back from injury and hasn't played. Maguire doesn't play. Phillips doesn't play. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

king canary 7,609 Posted October 17, 2023 Rashford looks lively but I feel like we miss Saka. Absolutely baffled as to how Maguire still starts, glad Henderson is out at least. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bigbrenn 59 Posted October 17, 2023 Stones is all at sea! Maguire is doing ok but too many seem to think about passing back first. Back 4 plus Rice and Phillips look disconnected from the front players. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 1,768 Posted October 17, 2023 Phillips looking every bit a man who's barely played this season..blowing out of his ar se. ...and with Saka out injured , Sterling should be starting or at very least on the bench to bring on ....yet apparantly cant get in the squad.....

Pyro Pete 1,897 Posted October 17, 2023 Gilly Bilmour scored for Scotland against France, earlier. They're still losing though. McLean started. Gunn is on the bench. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
