Qatar World Cup 2022 (55 Viewers)

Tough loss to take. Better team on the night. First goal shouldn't stand and should've had another penalty.

What retirements are we expecting after that Henderson must do it and I wouldn’t be shocked to see Sterling pack up.

Oh well , the better team lost tonight , haven't always agreed with Southgate but think he sent them out second half to win that football match and unfortunately we've fell short .

Thanks for your time and effort Gareth, many will remember you as a manager who gave us good times ..

I wish him all the best

Disagreed with you a fair bit over this tournament but this sums it up for me.

Think every party benefits from a change tbh.

King Kane for a sleepless night

Not sure I'd sack him on the back of that. Would be harsh.

 

[Evo1883]

Interesting stats.

International goals

Harry Kane = 53 goals
Penalties 17
Open play 36

Oliver Giroud = 53 goals
Penalties 3
Open play 50

Kane has in all fairness played almost 40 games less

 

[mark82]

Anyway, team Morocco now.

 

[Skybluefaz]

He hasn't. He isn't very good for England, certainly not in big games. He has also been awol for weeks because of the robbery.

None of that is true though is it?

 

[Evo1883]

I actually want Croatia to win it now

Country of 3 million , incredible what they continue to do

 

[oscillatewildly]

I'd say he brought him on because he's delivered in big moments for his country.

Really? Or just got himself on the score sheet against the 3rd rate opposition we always have in qualification?

Kane bottled it big time. World class player like Benzema slots it home no sweat

Should anyone else have taken the pen .
No normally but a second one against his club goalie?

I would. We showed today we could beat the best with slightly better management and that’s not the first time. I think putting praise on Southgate really undersells our players.

Think I’m with this. Other than the unrealistic Morocco.

Haha , to be fair to Harry, I thought he was one of England's best tonight ..such a shame

I wouldn’t have dreamed of giving it to someone else.

 

[TomRad85]

Seriously though, rarely plays in big games for Spurs which may not help in situations like that. Should have moved on years ago.

I thought we were excellent throughout the second half and, after a shaky first half, put up much more of a fight than I was expecting.

Exactly. All this pathetic talk from people who’d probably piss down their leg even stepping on a professional football pitch. Shit pen but played well. They were just more clinical and had rub of the green, in typical England style defeat

A repeat of the last World Cup final would be really odd too. Hopefully the Croats take them this time.

One day we will be the better team in a big game and actually win it.

 

[MalcSB]

He’s probably the biggest goal threat outside of Kane.

Certainly t,he best option for that dying seconds free kick.

 

[Liquid Gold]

This is going out to the winner like in 02. We’d have gone all the way then too.

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

You must be right, because it was an outstanding substitution...

Kane has in all fairness played almost 40 games less

In fairness to Giroud a lot of his early minutes were as sub over all total international minutes

Giroud 6746 minutes
Kane 6226 mins

In total minutes Giroud has only played the equivalent of 5.7 games more than Kane

Spain hattrick, important goals in the euros, won the pen against Denmark.

Edit: he scored 2 against Spain, you're right. Pathetic.

Morocco to make Mbappe cry
Croatia to make Messi cry

Ilias Chair to become the first second tier player to lift a World Cup

On to the second division of the Nations League first

Gloried friendly‘s

 

[stupot07]

He was but 90% of the time he is too deep and playing in midfield. Yes he's good at linking play but we need him in the box.

Sterling why? He is still like 25

If they’re glorified friendlies perhaps we might have used them to try some different systems or personnel

They play totally different roles TBF. Kane is basically a number 10 for England. Giroud is on the end of everything in the box.

 

[jordan210]

I wish Kane would have atlest hit the target. If it’s saved it’s saved. But skying it is typical England way
