Group G - Belgium, Panama, Tunisia, England

[Spark]

This ref is on a one-man mission to get players suspended for a game.

How did USA not manage to qualify over Panama, jeez

Massive misuse of resources. Read a good article earlier this year that highlighted an organization that generates millions but is still run like it was in the 80s. There was lots of Klinsmann hate because he questioned the status quo and those that allowed it. On the playing side they seem to struggle more with how and when to use overseas players vs locals. Australia seems to get that better.

Heard the USA could potentially be involved in things like the Copa America but there is no desire at the top because of timing.

 

[Adders]

Of course you will.

Yep. Here I am.

 

[cpr]

Well Sterling doing his best to get the press offf his back there

 

[vogue]

Yep. Here I am.

Let’s hope England make it worth your middle of the night vigil then ..

 

[vogue]

Good start

Most interesting thing about this match is Tunisia's coach. Looks like it will be a thrashing.

 

[sledger]

Oh baby

 

[fredfertang]

Playing like no England side I've seen in a World Cup before - you don't suppose they might ...............................

 

[vcs]

This is very good from England.

 

[sledger]

So many awful misses so far in this game. Should be 4-0 already.

 

[sledger]

Playing well but got to keep in mind that Tunisia are not good.

 

[sledger]

hahahahaha

 

[fredfertang]

normal service resumed

 

[Cow]

Lingard, Sterling and Stones panicking in front of goal. Ref a ****.

We should be fisting this lot.

Yup, but this formation relies on lightweights like Sterling and Lingard to take their chances, and sure enough Walker ****s up to bring Tunisia back into the game.

Rashford on for Sterling would help.

Penalty was a bit soft given the amount of contact but silly from Walker. Feels like there's been a lot of penalties given this tournament so far.

wat

any formation relies on its players to take their chances, these misses wouldn't suddenly become better if England were playing with 4 at the back or whatever.

 

[harsh.ag]

England you capricious unicorn, you

 

[sledger]

The way the pundits etc. are obsessing over how well England played for the first 15-20 minutes is so dumb. It's almost like an Ikki statistic.

Yeah, we lost 3-1, but what a 20 minutes hey?

Who the **** cares?
