SEE YOU! A brand spanking new modern fitba thread 2020/21

No possession. England are clearly geared up for the counter.

 

England can't string three passes together so far.

MTF

 

England build-up is sooooo slow. You watch Denmark and see how quick they get in behind and between lines and watch cunts like Sterling fucking around playing ten yard passes sidewards...

MTF

 

The way England get the ball back to Pickford from an attacking position is truly impressive. Most people might try and score, but England unselfishly bring Pickford into it. Clearly something they've worked on.

 

He just had a shot. A shot that was going in..

 

It's awful, isn't it. Possession for no purpose. Goes nowhere. Ponderous, aimless tippy-tappy shite.

MTF

 

Wow!!!

MTF

 

1996.....you'd have got a better atmosohere for an england Ecuador friendly in 96

 

Great pressing by Maguire there

 

ill tell you, he made the keeper WORK!!!

 

Saka is the only guy playing with any kind of attacking purpose.

 

Sloppy. Trippier wanders offside.

 

I was running late to the pub - no Foden OR Grealish??? Wtf

 

Maguire is trying to press and attack from the back. Stones is not helping him. He's too afraid of getting turned by Havertz and Werner. Too many bad recent memories

 

Just heard a massive cheer from the pub downstairs, assumed my stream was slow n germany had scored but they must have a stripper hired or something....

 

Yes, you are correct. It's badically a 3-5-3

 

I'm contending with that here too, just in reverse. They cheer, it means England have done something.

 

Maguire is on it, so far. The big dumb paddy

 

Southgate bottled it.

Remember I said that he didn't trust both to play together. Turns out I was wrong. He trusts neither.

Cowardice.

MTF

 

Aye, with five defender in midfield.

MTF

 

Wembley 96 was heaving. This is tame and refined.

Maguire... Should be 1-0

 

Nowt to cheer. Been a load of wank from both teams.

MTF

 

Englands turn.....

 

Shat it, Harry

 

Kane can't even run. His continued selection is now outrageous.

MTF

 

Yes but Wembley then was a different ground inhabited by different fans.

 

Ive not heard him mentioned....

 

Backwards, backwards, sideways, backwards...fucking TEDIOUS.

 

Correct. This is a gentrified version of what was once a huge international fixture.

MTF

 

"we're struggling getting kane into the game"

Yeah, the same way Oxford struggled to get me into their classes....
