Serbia v England - Sun 16th June, 20:00 | Euro 2024 Group C

[Mr Partridge]

"The arrogance is running through Bellingham is the right way. Phil Foden needs some of that..."

Fuck off beany horse botherer.

He's no Samaras is he Stu...

 

[Gray]

Had Kane touched the ball yet?

Saving himself for the second half.

 

[I'm Blue]

Had Kane touched the ball yet?

Shearers touched his own balls plenty in this first half.

 

[paulchapo]

Where is the Phil we watch every week?

He looks totally lost out there ATM.

 

[TinFoilHat]

"How's Harry Kane doing? Off to our touchline reporter Faye Curruthers."

"I'm very wet so far..."

TMI love.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

Phil’s not having a great game but class is permanent

Waistcoat tactics.

 

[BlueTG]

I don't get how posters can't see it. Blaming Saka for putting a great pass in, Foden was absent minded there and didn't react on time. That's all that was

Aye yeah he’ll just make up the four yards behind him in half a second.

 

[oldius]

I'm enjoying the Bellingham commentary: it's nice to have his every motion described in such detail.

 

[paulchapo]

Serbia growing into it here.

 

[cookster]

Where is the Phil we watch every week?

Missing a pass from a team mate.

 

[give it to gordon]

Can I say I'm bored

 

[argyle]

Foden being outshone by Bellingham and Saka so far.

Would like him to demand the ball more rather just being on the periphery.

 

[mdj0520]

Bellingham needs to.learn to release it quicker. Phil looks like a young kid playing with the big boys at times. He's running about a lot but nothing is happening for him.

I don't think he understands where he's supposed to be playing. It's like Southgate has said to him you're free to drift into space and trippier will provide the width but where ever he goes he's in someone else's spot.

Think Bellingham is a twat but he's looked much better, but I think it's because he's happier drifting into others space whilst foden is self-conscious of it

 

[Alexia_Ko]

Not had sustained possession for at least 10mins

 

[Stato]

We are sat so deep

 

[r.soleofsalford]

Im desperate for Foden to do well for England, but it just doesn't work for him...yet.

He’s getting no ball, all up the right side and when it’s up the left or the middle, it’s the Bellingham show, he doesn’t want anyone to have it other than him.

 

[lonestay]

Shearers touched his own balls plenty in this first half.

And he would love to be touching Bellends balls by the sound of it .

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Where is the Phil we watch every week?

Where is the control we exert every week? Once that question is asked, it’s then clear why Phil will always be on the periphery in this England team. With us, because we build up so well, we can get Phil into those central areas more reliably. With England, we don’t advance consistently enough for him to be camped in the centre. He has to do far more of the winger duties for England versus playing for City, despite having the exact same general role. Simple reason… City have Rodri, England don’t.

 

[bridgeno1]

Guehi, Bellingham, Saka all have been good.

The rest not so much.

 

[super_city_si]

Tront doing the square root of fuck all. Midfield looking very light. Foden doing nothung cos we cant get him the ball.
