Very boring to watch but another 3 points for ‘Lord Beak’

Didn't think we'd been too bad tonight to be honest. Decent performance, probably should be more than 1 up. Win this and we'll almost certainly qualify.

I didn’t say we were poor, just it’s a very dull game. Hardly any shots fired off, just passing sideways to death

Sterling was clipped. Went down very easily (and arguably before the touch) but doubt VAR would have overturned it even if available.

Thought we played well. Mount and Foden are such classy players. Feel a bit for Grealish and probably more so Maddison. Be hard to get the shirts off them two.

O drivel was clearly still a mockny when mcsheffrey did that with aplomb

You been drinking again Graham?

Anyway you never saw McShufty play did you? I mean you don't even support Cov.

Like watching City.

Clipped after he had already gone to ground, VAR overturns that everyday of the week.

We've been better tonight tbf. Teams are putting 10 behind the ball and it makes it difficult, no matter who you are.

We are still landing ourselves in hot water by trying to play tiki taka in our own box.

Foden is probably our most technically gifted player. Love watching him. Very well stocked in that position and can maybe play horses for courses. They are all very good players - nice problem to have. I'd take all 4 to the Euro's.

Another nice issue to have.

Yeah would love to see Maddison feature more but that he isn’t says a lot about those ahead of him.

Agreed, especially when we have someone as adept as Lee Burge at kicking, in goal.

With this particular comparison , I think Woodhouse needs to get a grip

Fodens touch to set up the Kane shot was superb. Really like watching him play.

Sterling has always been the boo boys target to be fair

 

[SBAndy]

Thought we played reasonably well in the first half. Controlled things and created a few openings against a pretty decent team who seem content to sit back.

 

[Nick]

We are just trying to win penalties

 

[mark82]

Pope should pick that up surely? Wasn't a pass back, Stones was pushed.

 

[Evo1883]

Poland started lively , have to feel they might be a different proposition with lewandowski uptop

 

[Evo1883]

VAR would have given that lee come on

 

[mark82]

Fucking dreadful defending.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Awful goal from fucking nothing

 

[Evo1883]

Told you ...we aren't good enough at the back to win trophies

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Penalised for such a negative approach to the game

 

[stupot07]

Awful by Stones, but this is what can happen when you mess around at the back

To be fair, the mistake has been made by the one guy who, on current form, probably is good enough.

 

[covmark]

Literally no reason to do that. What a tit.

He's got form though

 

[Evo1883]

I still expect us to go on and win...but against the best we will be too frail under pressure

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

Because Neymar does it it's ok?

wow

Pretty much every team does it. Is it ok? No but if it gets us goals, couldn’t give a shit

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Southgate content with this utter pish

 

[stay_up_skyblues]

Fadz would have been proud of Stones’ turn there.

 

[mark82]

Need some changes here.
