November 25, 20222 yr Jack Grealish and Jordan Henderson are on for Raheem Sterling and Jude Bellingham. Mason Mount is still on...
November 25, 20222 yr Really poor performance. They were too slow and didn’t seem to put the effort in. The exact same as the Scotland game.
November 25, 20222 yr We throw a 0-0 in the group stage at basically every tournament ever, don't worry it just English traditions. Makes the Wales game very tasty now at least!
November 25, 20222 yr Don't think us Americans are happy with a point. That result was disappointing as England was there for the taking. We dominated at times. Gotta beat Iran!
November 25, 20222 yr :( On the whole, poor performance, its a shame they missed the target in the closing 4 minutes of the match, that could have gave them the points they needed. Just have to win the game on Tuesday. Hopefully we get a result. USA will probably take 3 points against Iran or cause another upset, they just simply got lucky against Wales.
November 25, 20222 yr A win would have put England through as group winners. That wasn't reflected in the way they played at all.
November 25, 20222 yr Author Dreadful game, the likes of Mount/Henderson/Sterling will get pelters from people. Personally I thought we were slow all over the pitch, second best to everything, whether that was our press just wasn't working or if we were tired. We don't have the players to break down a 5 at the back and Southgate doesn't rate our two best technical players in Trent & Foden. More importantly this is the way Southgate plays, I think unless Wales beat us 4-0 we are through now anyway (which even as a pessimist, I can't see). At least it gives us all something to moan about for the next day!
November 25, 20222 yr Author Called it. England will never win. A UK team would have a better chance. So basically England :lol:
November 25, 20222 yr Robertson at left back and Bale would be there somewhere but that would be all!
November 25, 20222 yr Author Robertson at left back and Bale would be there somewhere but that would be all! Ohh yeah fair point, Robertson and Tierney could make it. I don't think Bale would now though.. although maybe with a squad of 26 he would. Genuinely don't think any other players would make it anyone.. different story in the past though!
November 25, 20222 yr Poor performance from England, USA totally outplayed them throughout the match. I knew this match would end in a draw as it always seems to be one when these two sides face each other in a World Cup and England can't go through a group stage in a major tournament by winning all of their matches. USA Vs Iran looks like a very interesting match up now that will be winner takes all.
November 26, 20222 yr You always get a lot of overreaction to games like this but it's ultimately fine, a fair result and a dull game, that's ok. We're about 97% through after two games, great stuff. I thought England were better and the game less boring than the 0-0 with Scotland last year. We throw a 0-0 in the group stage at basically every tournament ever, don't worry it just English traditions. Makes the Wales game very tasty now at least! England have made the semi final of a tournament five times, only one of those in 2018 (vs. Tunisia and Honduras) have they won both of their opening games. It's been 20 years since the World Cup winners got 9 points in their group.
