Posted June 8, 20169 yr England's first game of the Euro 2016 tournament is against the next World Cup hosts, Russia! The game is live on ITV. Please use this thread for speculation, pre and post match chat on the England game.
June 8, 20169 yr This should be a win for England. I think it would be an 2-1 win to them although I wouldn't be surprised if they drew this game. Russia are no pushovers.
June 10, 20169 yr I hope so however I expect he will be a supersub for this game. Roy isn't that adventurous.
June 10, 20169 yr He'll probably will be a supersub for Roy. I would start Vardy a player who has had the season of his life.
June 10, 20169 yr I can't see him starting all of Kane, Vardy, Rooney & Alli unofrtunately so I feel Vardy will be the one ousted to the bench.
June 11, 20169 yr Author England talk in here please! Team for tonight: Hart, Walker, Cahill, Smalling, Rose; Alli, Dier, Rooney; Sterling, Kane, Lallana. First impression.. we need another actual midfielder playing. Midfield 3 of Dier, Ali and Rooney is poor defensively.
June 11, 20169 yr Hoping that the football will be remembered following the events of earlier in Marseille.
June 11, 20169 yr England v Russia Live Chat Tweet Let's try and retweet this as much as we can and try and get more people on here.
June 11, 20169 yr At least we are creating chances trouble is we can't find the back of the net or have a decent shot at goal. Has Rooney done anything in this game?
June 11, 20169 yr Author At least we are creating chances trouble is we can't find the back of the net or have a decent shot at goal. Has Rooney done anything in this game? Few good balls, but he doesn't suit the team if we're playing a pressing game. Henderson/Milner would be much better suited. Playing well so far, but very wasteful in front of goal.
June 11, 20169 yr I see I've missed very little so far then. Looked decent enough earlier but with very little coming of any of the chances I managed to see.
June 11, 20169 yr Come on ENGLAND, so many chances and they simply can't find the net, specsavers is just round the corner. And Rooney is just THERE, he looks like he has eaten too many pork pies. :D
June 11, 20169 yr In terms of attacking, this is one of the best performances by our standards in years. So creative and our cross field and overlap play has been fantastic at points. However - bring Rooney off (even though I have £3 riding on him)! We need Sturridge, Rashford or Vardy to finish our chances - if we had of had a born finisher in our first 11 today this would have been the best performance from us in the last 10 years.
June 11, 20169 yr Roy needs to put Vardy on instead of Rooney that could be the game changer in the second half, I can't see Rooney playing the full 90 mins
