By Hitch Go To PostNo idea what the plan even was for this match, or why we've put the weakened team out today instead of the friendly that we had on Thursday. Even if the Nations League is a bit of a nonsense, especially in these circumstances, there's the prospect of a couple more semi-competetive games if we win the group which would surely be very useful for Southgate?
That's the really alarming thing about Southgate, he clearly believes that this is his best team and system.
By Laboured Go To PostThere's nothing about this England system that works…

Nothing unexpected. Moutinho has been starting a lot for Portugal but it makes sense to go with two stronger midfielders.
Besides, Willy C is in an amazing run of form and Danilo must be motivated after signing with PSG.

That wasn't too bad.
Happy for Mount to get that admittedly lucky goal. Don't think he suited the system today, mind.

Impressive stuff from England, beat the world number one nation. Looks like football is coming home in 2021.

Were Belgium missing anyone, aside from Courtouis? Seems like their golden generation might be coming to an end?

Hazard.
By Laboured Go To PostHazard.So that's a yes to both questions then.
By Laboured Go To PostHazard.Think Vertonghen is normally a starter for them so also him.
But yeah, Belgium seems to be on a downturn. They have some good players but their backline seems weak.

What a player. Unplayable.
By Xpike Go To PostHopefully that was his prime, and we're past thatHe still has moments of brilliance and can boss games but don't expect him to be the Bale of 3-4 years ago, injuries did a number on him. A great player to have in your squad if the system can accommodate for him, i.e., don't expect him to track back and forth and help defend. He wont do that shit. He'll create space and enable others to excel, I'd be curious to see a Son Kane Bale front looks like.

thought we played an evening match, seems I haven't missed a thing.
Ruben Dias already on a yellow for elbowing Giroud who was left bleeding.
He does this all the fucking time but normally gets away with because he is a Benfica player.

Wish Bollocks Yilmaz would fuck off. Stop moping about and whining, it's only been 6 minutes you absolute fucking hack footballer.
