Euro 2016 - hype, anticipation and general excitement

Photoshopped onto the body of an actual pike

which would probably make her look better than the rude lime green getup the senile fucker was wearing today:p

Kane still on corners...

so it wasn't just me who thought that Ramsey sucked ass?

Nah he was dreadful.

Lol that cross field pass by Rooney

Lol waz getting caught in his own half

He learned that from LVG, it's called a "tikkie breed"
xpost

Lol

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

Sterling is a fuxkin coward

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

Lord knows I hate the prick more than anyone, but he hasn't been that bad

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

He just doesn't belong (any more). Think of the possibilities with some decent youngun taking his place.

NN and Windsor otm

best half in a tournament i can remember seeing from an England team

Oh, seems to be fake. Fuck if I know.

iirc those are all from a weird cluster of twitter handles that constantly post made up eyewitness accounts like that

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

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

I expected Russia to be shit but Jesus.

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

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.

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

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?

Nah, I agree with Matt. Sterling's backheel for Ali's cross was the best move of the game imo.

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

be pointless playing Vardy in Sterling's position though

Yeah i guess that's true, wouldn't want to change the shape at this point

Befuddled that Kane is assigned to take all corners and set pieces tbh

Putin's got this.

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

We're set up to cover for this ye have rooney

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.

You may've missed the memo darragh, rooney's good now

Certainly don't have a defence you'd want to fall back on for any length of time

Yeah Roy needs to do something here, we've got enough on the bench to make an impact

Russia is so utterly piss poor. And yet.

Haha wow

jesus bloody hell

It had to be Roo

Amazing save tbf

Hodgson should've changed this up 10 minutes ago

omg save of the tournament

Had 0-0, changed it to 1-1. Think that was a mistake.

Half decent

Yeeeeeeeesssss you beauuuuty
