  1. We won't be signing any released Premier League players. The wages for even the average to poor Premier League players are way beyond our means. That ship sailed years ago.
  2. He looked a class act when he first got into the City team.
  3. How could they be fair challenges. Kane was wrestled over and thrown onto the ground ! I'm glad he got his own back in the best way possible at the end of the game.
  4. If it is £2 million we won't be paying it.
  5. How did Sterling miss that chance that was ruled out for the guy who passed the ball being off side ? My mum could have got that one on goal and she's in her 80's. He looked like he'd never seen a football before. How many times did he run down a blind alley and lose the ball ?
  6. I was concerned with the way being on the receiving end of some really bad refereeing decisions seemed blow us off course. We lost our way almost completely for the rest of the game. We ended up playing walking football.
  7. Walker's always got a mistake in him. I don't rate Young as a left back. Trippier was excellent, never made a mistake all night. Linguard was poor in front of goal, Alli started great but went quiet. Sterling is clueless, he dribbles when he comes to a pair of feet, too much head down. Rashford should start next time. Kane had two touches and won us the game, one a really good headed finish. At that point in the game it's easy to panic, he didn't. I couldn't believe how he got that amount of room, before that they were all over him like a cheap suit. Henderson was ok. The goalie only touched the ball once. Did the referee have his eyes painted on ? VAR is a joke. If Tunisia ever start a rugby league team there were a couple of good recruits out there. Play like we did in the first 20 minutes and we'll be a threat. Play like we did in the second half and we'll go out in the first knock out game.
  8. I don't want us to be signing " back up " players at this point. We want players who can come into the first eleven and improve it.
  9. Unless England surprise me tonight I've seen a few sides that look better than us. Even the sides that have lost games.
  10. That's hard to believe. Most people would give their left testicle to play in the World Cup !
  11. I never rated him Mike, he just got lucky.
  12. They'll be back. Just not their day today.
  13. Can I just say I think the referees have been excellent so far.
  14. Costa Rica v Serbia, really end to end stuff. Great to watch.
  15. Me too but I'm not Mowbray. I agree about Williams being better at the back than as a full back.
  16. We won't win many games in this league playing well for 45 minutes.
  17. If we play the system that Mowbray is alleged to favour, 3 centre halves, we'll need another one I think. Downing is a decent stand in and Williams can play there at a pinch, Wharton is coming through but another first choice centre half would be handy. Having a centre half who's dominant in the air would be a plus too. Having said that not all tall guys are good headers of the ball.
  18. I've always liked Peru. I think it might be the shirt, it's unique. I was watching highlights of Peru v Scotland 1978 yesterday on the Internet. What a player Teofilo Cubillas was, he scored two fantastic goals in that game. The first one was an absolute rocket into the top corner, the second was a free kick using a technique I've never seen another player use.
  19. I think he lacks a football brain. You need that even on the wing.
  20. Hoban looked a decent player until he got injured and Emnes was handy.
  21. Best team lost in that one for me.
  22. Don't be like that. I'm obviously old school and when I played that wouldn't have been a pen but nowadays you see penalties like that given everyday unfortunately.
  23. I thought the Costa incident was a foul. He jumped into his opponent leading with his elbow.
