It was laughable when Man U gave him the security of that mega contract, like as if they were desperately fending off multiple imaginary suitors. it was really funny tho!

Walker and rose great fun going forward but never more than a cunthair away from calamity at the back. Haven't followed ilf too closely the last year or so but I daresay this will have been noted by te Spurs contingent

Tbf to England I've seen them go whole tournaments without creating this number of chances

England playing quite well tbf. I'd put Vardy on for Kane though, he looks knackered

Rooney doing alright here largely because Russia don't seem to have a midfield tonight
Can't remember England ever being so dominant in a tournament game, this is very pleasant
― Windsor Davies, Saturday, 11 June 2016 19:44 (eight years ago) link
He just doesn't belong (any more). Think of the possibilities with some decent youngun taking his place.

Rooney has made a few good passes to cancel out the bloopers, it's more a case of there must be somebody better for that position
― The Brexit Club (Noodle Vague), Saturday, 11 June 2016 19:47 (eight years ago) link
Rooney, walker and lallana all outstanding. England in danger of running themselves into the ground if they dont get a goal soon. Two Russian centre-backs look pretty solid too

Vardy on for Sterling if anything atm, don't know if Kane is knackered or just dropping deeper, nicely fluid across the front 3/4
― The Brexit Club (Noodle Vague), Saturday, 11 June 2016 19:51 (eight years ago) link
Sterling has looked good though. Final ball isn't quite there but this is all very promising. Kane taking the corners isn't working AT ALL though.
Rooney's distribution is probably better than Milner or Henderson's so I'm okay with him in that role but two recently converted players in central midfield is probably not going to work against proper opposition.
Watching Alli wriggle away from two Russian defenders was particularly enjoyable though.
― Matt DC, Saturday, 11 June 2016 19:52 (eight years ago) link
xxxpost not too worried about guys getting tired, Vardy, Milner, Henderson, Studge, lots more legs on that bench if people start slowing down(and some half-decent players too!). this is weird guys, I know this Russia side are dogshit but when has that ever made a difference to England before? it shouldn't be this much fun to watch us at tournaments.
not sure i agree w/ Matt about Sterling, i don't like him and i don't think he offers much at all besides the initial burst of pace down the oustide and the little step back in. never seems to do anything incisive, doesn't know what to do with the ball when he actually has a choice to make
― Windsor Davies, Saturday, 11 June 2016 19:55 (eight years ago) link
No problem with Walker and Rose flying forward, manager's job is to structure the team to cover that. Back four looks porous tho.
Sterling has been good in parts, his decision making is a bit suspect for me. Wouldn't change owt at this point.

"it's more a case of there must be somebody better for that position"
Drinkwater for a start, what did he do wrong this season?
― calzino, Saturday, 11 June 2016 19:57 (eight years ago) link
Nah, I agree with Matt. Sterling's backheel for Ali's cross was the best move of the game imo.
― suffeeciant attreebution (aldo), Saturday, 11 June 2016 19:58 (eight years ago) link
maintain my position on this, Sterling also bang out of form, whereas Jamie Vardy was so brimming over with confidence by the end of the season that you could see it sloshing about behind his beady little rodent eyes
― Windsor Davies, Saturday, 11 June 2016 20:00 (eight years ago) link
be pointless playing Vardy in Sterling's position though
― Number None, Saturday, 11 June 2016 20:01 (eight years ago) link
Yeah i guess that's true, wouldn't want to change the shape at this point
― Windsor Davies, Saturday, 11 June 2016 20:05 (eight years ago) link
Befuddled that Kane is assigned to take all corners and set pieces tbh

Dunno if England are tiring or taking a breather but there's less players attacking the box when they get forward now

They're throwing it away imho. Chokehold of the first half is gone completely.
