England Senior National Team General Discussion Thread

Premier League- very very poor quality product.

 

Bellingham? Rogers?

 

Rogers is a fair way from being top class for me. Bellingham is closer to being a top class 10 than the rest of them but it's still not his best role imo.

 

He's not going to play there, but there's an argument that Kane would be our best 10.

 

Yeah think something needs to be done, it’s ridiculous. Just listening to the aftermath on the radio and they are claiming Trossard was actually fouling Pablo before fouling Raya and therefore the foul on Raya probably doesn’t happen. If that’s the case then it’s either a penalty or the goal stands. When looking at these things, VAR probably needs to be more thorough.

 

It can’t be more through than 3 mins. Most likely a 60/90 second limit will come in someday.

Can they even disallow a goal but also give a penalty?

Bowen’s view seems to be it should be fair to touch etc. Might be the end of him and Rice being friends.

 

It’s got to a point where it necessitates intervention with similar priority to the back pass all those years ago.

 

What’s it like in other leagues. Is it just as common there.

 

Even many goalkeppers disagree.

It does seem a hugely controversial one. Rob Green supported the decision on Radio 5 live and he is ex West Ham (Which Joe Hart is as well but I don’t think that’s remembered well by anyone.)

 

It does thinking about it. One of the West Ham fans accounts posted it so I assumed it was genuine,

 

Be interesting to see who actually is the second choice right back in the end. Arguments can be made for Livramento, Spence, Quansah and Trent. With James being a player who you need to always hold your breathe when playing so that he doesn’t get injured whoever it is could get significant playing time.

 

They'd be mad not to pay the money for rashford. He's got 14 goals and double assists when he's not even starting every game

 

Hos stats are good really for his first season even though I’m not his biggest fan granted. Didn’t think the price was that bad really.

 

I meant mad not to pay it lol

 

Congratulations, @MarcusRashford! 🏆 https://t.co/HAThBItGEv
