England - Lee Carsley Era (8 Viewers)

Otis · Friday at 9:11 AM

Very good performance from England last night, with a weakened team.

I thought Curtis Jones had a very good game and so too, Guehl and Bellingham, particularly. Pickford was at his best too

Gordon and Madueke both looked threatening and I thought Hall, when he came on, looked like he had been playing for England for years. Definitely one for the future.

Certainly highlighted that if Carsley hadn’t played silly buggers at Wembley we’d be on 100%

I’ve been very impressed with Hall this season and last night he looked so comfortable when he came on.

Could be the long term solution to that troubled left back position.

Was just googling him and randomly he went to the same private school as Simon Cowell.

Tbh I don't see that lineup as weakened in any significant way.

But on paper it looked so.

I see what you mean, player for player it looks weaker but as a team it looks better (if that makes sense)?

I get what you're saying as a unit, but there's no way a team/squad missing Trent, Stones, Rice, Foden, Palmer, Grealish etc could be considered stronger.

Dunno what Atletico have done with Connor Gallagher but thought he looked twice the player he has ever looked last night

Yup. It was much more balanced wasn't it, instead of having to try and shoe-in the bigger stars like Foden and Kane etc.

The one player I don't rate (he wasn't too bad at all last night to be honest) is Gallagher. But I can see why we need that sort of player in that side.

I get you, my point was that a team isn't necessarily a collection of the best players.

Think more English players need to play abroad IMO.

Otis · Sunday at 4:12 PM

Tonight's line-up.

I think I would have stuck with Watkins to be honest, but that should still be enough to see off the Republic of Ireland.

Glad Hall is in. He looked really assured on Thursday

SBT · Sunday at 4:26 PM

Half an hour from kickoff, promotion on the line, atmosphere around the country is absolutely electric

SBAndy · Sunday at 4:27 PM

Not that we are spoilt for choice in the current squad, but I’m really not convinced by Madueke at all.

Sky Blue Harry H · Sunday at 4:31 PM

Happily have a few Irish players crocked - a lot of them play in the Championship

wingy · Sunday at 4:40 PM

Dave Watson story extremely moving, what happens when he wins his case?

Nick · Sunday at 5:21 PM

Only just put the Ireland game on. How we playing?

Ireland Sat with 10 behind the ball , England will you hope find a way eventually

Sky Blue Harry H · Sunday at 5:26 PM

Ireland's keeper already taking ages with goal kicks, and all slow throw ins by their players.

Evo1883 · Sunday at 5:26 PM

I like Gordon but I find sometimes he slows us down too much by holding on too long

ccfc922 · Sunday at 5:28 PM

Draw or ROI would be great bet.

fernandopartridge · Sunday at 5:28 PM

I just don't think Kane is compatible with what England need now

Just like then!

SBAndy · Sunday at 5:30 PM

Sensational lack of movement. Bit like watching Cov this season, happy to just rotate the ball round midfield.

Otis · Sunday at 5:31 PM

Build up play is too slow.

fernandopartridge · Sunday at 5:32 PM

Why is the right back / wing back for England so narrow?

Evo1883 · Sunday at 5:38 PM

Upto now it's all very boring isn't it , a couple of bright moments but we need to be better and we need to mix it up

Otis · Sunday at 5:42 PM

Kane is more a hindrance than a positive tonight.

Nick · Sunday at 5:42 PM

Don't really rate madueke

Sky Blue Harry H · Sunday at 5:43 PM

Nick said:

Whether we do or not, he's the only one who has gone past a man. Ebosele has Gordon's measure. I'd take Kane off based on this half. Bellingham looks like he's sulking, the Irish are pumped up at p8ssing England off.

Nick · Sunday at 5:43 PM

Ref has lost control a bit

Nick · Sunday at 5:48 PM

Why's Kane centre half?

Otis · Sunday at 5:50 PM

Very poor half.

I agree with Fernando and I think Kane's international days are numbered.

I think I would mainly have him as an option from the bench.

He disrupts our shape and he's definitely slowed down a bit too.

Sky Blue Harry H · Sunday at 5:50 PM

Cheating tw*t Molumby - always been a niggly sh&te. They have ruffled us though, and I'd definitely take Kane off, but I don't think Carsley has the balls for that.

ccfc922 · Sunday at 5:51 PM

Pathetic from Molumby. Picked up like a toddler by Walker. Not exactly the "fighting Irish" is he?
