U19 England Match (3 Viewers)

[Nick]

At least sterling can take a quick throw in

 

---

[Nick]

Sterling is literally just running up and down the side of the pitch, rarely playing through wing backs and going direct

 

[Nick]

Was that him who got in to stop their player from scoring? Can't rewind to check

 

[eastwoodsdustman]

Decision making from both teams is awful

 

[I_Saw_Shaw_Score]

Good that sterling is getting some match fitness, shame Bayliss is just festering on the bench!

 

[Nick]

Decision making from both teams is awful

It's pretty boring

Sterling in the game then but slipped over

 

[Nick]

They need to let bayliss play

 

[vow]

FT 1-1.
No Bayliss again.

 

[I_Saw_Shaw_Score]

England showed no creativity tonight 4 & 5 in CM slowed everything down sideways/backwards

 

[standupforcity]

When he was given the ball Sterling looked very promising!

 

[vow]

4.30pm today Eng v France.
Hopefully Bayliss plays and is able to show the creativity Eng are missing.

May well get thumped. Didn't France win 5-0 last time out?

England have quite a few key players missing from their squad and it shows. Lack of creativity and final ball.

Defence looks pretty decent though.

 

[Magwitch]

Sounds like the first team.

 

[covcity4life]

Engkand are playing well.

Same negativity about senior team and we made semis ffs

Some people just hate their country. Sad.

the world cup was not a success
lost to any decent team, beat the average teams
Drew with Columbia

we are a top 16 team, and take away the draw. that is how we performed

 

[Nick]

The last 2 U19 games I have nodded off for about 20 minutes during them.

Might have to get comfortable for this one and catch up with some sleep!

Wouldn't even say we lost to a decent team, lost to a team that we could have beaten, but a team that couldn't beat Russia or Denmark in 90 mins.

If you'd told me who we'd be playing I would have said we would get to the semi's or the final, I think we performed to our par in terms of who we beat. Which to be fair was better than the previous below par performances

 

[CCFC88]

Sterling starts, Bayliss on the bench

 

[Nick]

The national anthem was properly teenage sounding!

Do all the stadiums have fake pitches?

Do all the stadiums have fake pitches?

Mostly, clubs are encouraged to invest in artificial as the spring/summer period is so short
The league has banned teams from postponing games due to the weather!

Finland 'bans' postponed football matches

 

[Nick]

Sterling is getting throw in practise

 

[Nick]

This playing around at the back stuff is so boring

 

[IrishSkyBlue]

bayliss better get a run deserves it.

 

[Otis]

France well on top. Could be a case of hanging on in there and trying to score on a rare break.

Belgium / Cameroon / W Germany - Bobby's Heroes, 300k at Luton airport on their return
Columbia / Sweden / Croatia - Easy route and fluked results against poor teams...

 

[Otis]

Dreadful goal to conced that.

 

[Nick]

Came from centre halves pissing about. Happened in every game so far.

They mirror the first team so much, struggle to actually break teams down and score.

If England lose I think they are out? Bayliss and sterling back...

Yeah, out unless Turkey somehow get back into the game against Ukraine.

Do have sympathy with this team here, because we are missing key players nor released by their clubs

 

[Nick]

Another mistake nearly cost

The big hair midfielder looks decent for us.

All we do is play across the back then try and be fancy but it doesn't go anywhere.

 

[Nick]

Sterling with great covering then to stop a goal from another centre half mistake

 

[Otis]

I quite like that Lewis on the left.

We are so poor though today. France far, far, far superior.

 

[standupforcity]

Dull dull dull! No creativity at all. Sterling however looks good. Ah...2 - 0!

 

[Nick]

Manager surely needs to change it, pretty awful

No idea what they are meant to be doing
