FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022: England Tournament Thread [R]

The lads get some rest finally!!

 

Rice, Kane and Walker off.

 

Nice to see TAA & Phillips get some minutes.

 

No sign of any VAR check.

 

Luke Shaw going off for Trippier. Trippier now at left back.

 

Seeing as they had to win this game Wales have been shit.

 

Rashford for the Golden Boot! Except .. he might not play too much in the knock outs ..

And now, Please, please, please, see the value in a clean sheet..

 

Kanes passing is a farce.

 

I guess we won't see maddison this tournaments ffs

 

So we have used all our subs by the 71st min. Is that a first for Southgate surely.

 

So Maddison isn’t getting on, if not now he’s not getting a minute in this tournament

 

This is going to be fun for the commentators, Callum Wilson on and so is Harry Wilson for Wales

 

Never say never.

 

Wales falling to bits

 

Definitely a game of two halves. This isn’t bad.

 

Wales played not to get hammered.

 

Job done I guess

 

The US dug trenches and brought the busses on for the second half.
5 minutes to go and panic mode.

 

It’s actually our highest scoring World Cup group stage ever beating the 8 we got last time. And none of the 9 were penalties.

 

I think they have been as well.

 

Indeed. Say what you want about Southgate but there’s a good chance that most of us here won’t ever see 9 England goals in a WC group stage ever again.

 

Realistically if not at 3-0 against Wales when is Southgate going to use a player he hasn’t used in 3 years?

Maddison’s a training cone, so are a bunch of others we don’t have a 26 man squad we have about 18 players
