Who is this annoying c**t who does the goal recreation?

Did the French guy on bbc just say he'd bring Neymar on for Griezmann

I'm pretty sure he did

Fantasy football did it better

 

[TomRad85]

I'm pretty sure he did

There's where we went wrong then, should have bought Messi on for Sterling

What I love about international tournaments is that you can’t just bring out the cheque book and buy in the players. Dealing with what you have is what makes it so compelling.

Kane is better than benzema , much better goalscorer

And our right backs are better than Pavard , rabiot isn't great either .. is griezman that great ? Not sure myself

I don’t personally think Deshamps drops Benzama, Pavard, Rabiot and definitely not Griezman for their English equivalents. Ok Kane, maybe. And Pickford over Loris? Didn’t Loris captain them for a period?

Opinions of course.

Their spine is just so strong. There can’t be many better than Lloris - Varane - Kante - Mbappe

Don't rate griezman me , has good spells but not a great player .

He's good on fifa most years , if that helps

Yehhh I kinda get where Evo is coming from on some of them but I reckon if you told a Frenchman that the best combined 11 would be a 5/5 split outfield he'd probably laugh in your face.

Every time I’ve been to Hungary my impression has been that every bloke is about 6’2 and 18st and this crowd has done nothing to alter that perception.

Feel sorry for Lloris spending his best years at Spurs and winning fuck all. At least Kane still has a bit of time to put that right.

He can laugh , but he'd be being disingenuous.

Especially at club level where their managers get more from them

Fixture in that trophy winning French team. I thought I heard he’d started 50 odd games in a row for them. Could be completely wrong.

It’s criminal they’ve not won anything with the talent they have. About time Everton took their place in the big 6

 

[Evo1883]

Tbh , there's aren't too many managers I wouldn't back to get more from our players than Southgate currently is

There is no big 6 in reality, its just ego stroking. There's a big 5 tops and that's being very generous to Arsenal atm.

Robins playing the box with these England players

 

[Evo1883]

Hungarians are a half decent outfit .

Home advantage playing its part but they're a big physical side , took the Portuguese a long time to take over against them too

 

[Evo1883]

Robins playing the box with these England players

I'd genuinely prefer even Robins managing England I'm sure of that

 

[Liquid Gold]

I have absolutely no doubt Robins and viveash would make us look like we atleast should , Southgate isn't a good manager at all

He'd make man city miss out on the top 4 no doubt

I don’t think Southgate is any good but I’m also not sure if international football management is much about being a decent tactician rather than just trying to gel players and motivate them.

I’d love Jose to have it, he understands English football and knows how to build a siege mentality and actually win things. He’s still on the club gravy train though.

 

[Johnnythespider]

Hungary looking for a second, fair play to them

 

[Evo1883]

I think alot of people , especially on social media , judge players in real life based on how good they are on fifa and football manager

 

[Liquid Gold]

This thread seems quiet today. What is better to do on a shitty Saturday than watch the football and argue on SBT

 

[Nick]

Mbappe looks nothing special today.

Got megged by the full back just to add to it.

 

[Evo1883]

1-1 couldn't really miss

 

[wingy]

Jonathan Pearce goes all robot wars.

 

[oscillatewildly]

Shocking defending. Shame.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

If France lose, do you think Southgate will use the result to make out the Scotland result was not so bad?!

 

[Liquid Gold]

Nice assist by the defender

 

[Evo1883]

Absolutely , I expect them to win from here though

Bit like you saying you’d take Varane despite him being atrocious all season for Real Madrid?

 

[Evo1883]

Did you disagree with the rest of the 11 ?

Also I'm not sure how having a poor season equates to overall ability ...

 

[Jagmannn]

Southgate wouldn't get a job managing a Championship team, how he is leading the International team is beyond me.

We wouldn't want him here at Coventry

 

[TomRad85]

Sgt Bash and Dead Metal have far better movement than England's forward line last night. Perhaps we missed a trick, a flamethrower might have been handy.
