  1. A bit of a reality check for England in the last 2 games as we've played good sides and looked second best.
  2. The trouble is every time we play 3 at the back we look clueless.
  3. At least 5 probably more.
  4. Sterling officially undroppable.
  5. Kent's skills and Championship experience didn't do much to help him at Bristol City last season, where he couldn't even get into the squad some weeks.
  6. Mowbray clearly sees Travis as a midfielder & of all the positions Bennett played last year right back was were he was weakest. Nyambe probably deserves to start the season at right back but for me the jury is still out on him & if he is found wanting in the Championship we will need someone who does play at right back not someone who can play there, especially as Bennett is 1 of only two wingers currently on the books otherwise our side will have too many square pegs in round holes.
  7. So you think that Caddis is adequate back up if Nyambe gets a long term injury?
  8. Just had a quick scan through and I found 15 Championship clubs that have brought in more than 2 players so far this window. Also we are a newly promoted team so we are going to need to add a few more as we will be playing a much higher standard of opposition this season. I still think that we need 2 wingers, centre forward, a centre half and a right back & we only have 26 days now to achieve this in.
  9. Totally agree Williams had 2 years left and Smallwood had a year left with the option for another. Lenihan & Mulgrew were the only two we absolutely had to tie down to new contracts and unusually nothing has even been mentioned about Mulgrew yet.
  10. I'm all for taking your time when recruiting players but we need to get a move on only 27 days until the window shuts and we still need 5-6 players. At the moment we have a weaker squad than last season.
  11. We never really looked like scoring from open play in any game other than Panama. Our tactics seemed to be win a corner or free kick close to goal, push the centre backs up and lump the ball into the area. Dire to watch.
  12. Playing those 4 gives you no balance in midfield. When you play against high quality opposition like Modric and Rakitic they will expose it.
  13. First half decent side we play and we are out. Croatia are decent nothing more but they had the quality in midfield that we dearly lack with Henderson, Dele & Lingard. Perisic was sensational, and Modric & Rakitic controlled the midfield against our boys.
  14. Should be out of sight already.
  15. I can never understand the logic of a goal keeper leaving one side of he goal completely open. Why not just stand in the middle of the goal?
  16. I wouldn't have Neymar in the top 30 Brazilian players that I have seen. I just don't see what the hype is all about with him, so overrated.
  17. Seen Harrison play twice once he scored a nice goal and the second time he gave Mulgrew all sorts of problems.
  18. There's one problem there, there is no such company as Russia Today. So more false information.
  19. I'm not sure you can accuse 23 people of taking 'banned substances' based on stats. And you didn't answer my question which one of the Fake News media outlets do you work for?
  20. Fake News. Which one the The Times, The Guardian, BBC, Sky or The Mail do you work for?
  21. I think I'd rather play Croatia. Nothing to fear from either team but Croatia strike me as a side very mentally fragile side, because lets be honest with the players they have they should be capable of beating Russia & Denmark comfortably yet against Denmark they were second best against & were no better than Russia tonight.
  22. Cheryshev player of the tournament so far for me.
  23. Not sure I'd say that Italy team was a steady team I'd say it was a very good team, far better than anything I have seen in this tournament. As for Greece and Portugal that was in the European Championship which unlike the World Cup has occasionally produced surprise winners you could also add Denmark in 92 to that list.
