yes. the best they can hope for is 3rd.

walcott will be extra dangerous now with an ankle injected with pure crank

Sure? If England beat Ukraine and Sweden beat France (which would be the least likely scenario, true), don't Sweden go through ahead of France on H2H?

Actually, no, sorry, forgot they lost to Ukraine...

wellbeck miscontrol for that goal imo.

history will p definitely mask the quality of that England performance with their goals but as long as Hodgson is still willing to pistolwhip them until they stop falling asleep at setpieces it doesn't rly matter

wellbeck miscontrol for that goal imo.

no chance

so do you drop carroll or wellbeck after that performance? hopefully walcott keeps milner's place.

hilarious game.

carroll will be dropped
xp

Carroll obviously. Welbeck and Rooney play together every week

in texas. had to drive an hour to find a tv showing the game. totally worth it though. what fun! i missed the walcott goal because of this

I would play wellbeck, but that header is exactly how roy wants to play.

according to lolexi lalas, that's how he wants to play against sweden, but wouldn't persist with it against a decent defence

Ashley Young looked a bit of a lightweight in that match

yeah, he wasn't any better than Milner tbh. I hate his stupid hunched running style too

welbeck miscrontrolled big style

(translation, so I'm told: "looking for a husband? talk to us") xp

Welbeck knew exactly what he was doing, he immediately turns to follow the path of the ball. He's done similar things for Utd too

yeah his reaction made it seem like he expected it to go in

wonder what roy keane would make of that flag

Welbeck obviously knew what he was doing and it was well done. Even I can admit that.

Tho Rooney would have been on the edge of England's box for that chance.

number none even miscontrolling his own posts now. infectious

still scored though

welbeck is not english

i was hoping id expressed my high regard for welbeck before that

hes still a work in progress but he just doesnt look like yr average english centre forward at all

he seems italian imo

I think if I could make a change for the next match I would probably stick Ferdinand on oh no wait

ferdinand would've meant it #technician

lol I guess this means SPAIN in the 2nd round.

At least Sweden has been finally beaten in another vintage perf from our lads.

wooo spectacular win best team in the tournament that shd show the naysayers

yeah you'd have to be a horse to think that england won't win this whole thing now

no wait, thats neighsayers, nm

am i wrong though

I missed yesterday's game but having seen the highlights and the France game, England at least appear to be playing with some spirit, which is more than you can say for any other tournament since 2004.

The problem that won't go away is the inability to keep the ball in midfield but England don't have the personnel to fix that one at the moment so they're not going to get anywhere without mad pace on the flanks, which makes leaving Lennon at home even more bewildering. England have also been shit at defending set pieces since basically forever.

Love Welbeck. Should start with Rooney against Ukraine. Young out Milner out, both Arsenal wingers in.

it was such a brilliant game.

Night after and it was an excellent winning goal - a win at an Euro match should be quietly celebrated. Glass of sherry type thing.

Would keep Milner in.

Just wish Eng could avoid Spain...

if today's french news show is to be believed, andy warhol scored england's first goal last night.

In the future everyone will be bought for 35 millions.

bad karma homie

I'm convinced there was a corner shortly afterwards where Zlatan had a drink from Hart's water bottle, too.

And it turns out I'm right:

Neil Ashton:

Holger Badstuber (Germany)

Position: Centre back Age: 23 Club: Bayern Munich

Scout’s Report: An exceptional left-footed defender. Classy and composed on the ball, he has an excellent reading of the game. He started his career at full back so he can operate in wider areas. He needs to work on his finishing when he goes forward for set pieces, judging by the header he put straight at the goalkeeper in Germany’s game against Holland.

Value: £15m

He’d fit in at... Manchester United or Arsenal. His versatility would definitely be a bonus for Arsene Wenger, given the manager’s difficulties in defence last season.
