Jude Bellingham

[RayCTID]

Both Kane (despite the pen) and Bellingham were England's weakest links. I forgot Rice got fried as well.

That’s fair. Apologies.

Accepted.

Nonsense. All were great tonight, a team effort

Apart from the two goals his overall play has been poor, not been the only one mind.

Played alright, as they all did. And was not in anyway cunty when interviewed after. They look and sound like a team of players, not individuals. Nice to see.

Flat out refused to pass to foden in the first half though.

He did a bit in the second half. I wonder if someone had a word with him.

Didnt see much of the game but he was very angry when Foden shot at goal.

Is nowhere near Foden’s level.

Not even close.

Wait until the Bellingham hype dies down and we're a 3 years down the line from now. Phil will be at the top of the game, Bellingham won't.

I don't even think he'll be at Real Madrid in a few years. He's going to get pushed further back into midfield with the arrival of Mbappe, Endrick etc joining the likes of Vini Jr.

Then we'll see he hasn't got the footballing ability to run a midfield for Real Madrid. He's not a Kroos or Modric and won't be in the next few years either, he couldn't lace their boots. They'll suss him out quickly when the hype dies and he's expected to run Madrid's midfield....and the Madrid fans aren't shy about turning on a player.

Still fumin' Waistcoat hooked Phil instead of this guy.

He who can't be dropped.

I think Phil was fucked from doing the work of 2x10s for 2 games. He could have stayed on & contributed the same as Bellingham though.

If I give Waistcoat the benefit of the doubt it’s that he was banking on grinding a win out and keeping Phil fresh for the final. The ~50 minutes saved will make a difference. He needs that explosiveness for his change of pace on the turn.

But then again I don’t think Southgate has that depth of footballing awareness and the sub was predetermined regardless of performances.

 

[lightning Rodri]

Has he been taking lessons from another former Réal Madrid player?

;-)

I love the username, by the way.

I mean, he's a brilliant individual player and is probably going to get better too. But at the moment, his positioning and understanding of the game is poor, you can actually see the lack of proper coaching. It's laughable that he runs around instructing other experienced players where to pass or move to every single time, though his team mates seemed to plainly ignore him last game even younger ones like Mainoo and Palmer :)

Exactly. Game management. He knows who the star man is on Sunday and he needs him rested until then.

Not one person in the pub could believe Foden got hooked and not this pony last night, it’s not just City fans who see this, but poster boy will nit get pulled off we all know it.

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

When we get battered by Spain I hope it’s his fault. I want Rodders to turn him inside out and smash the winner in from outside the box.

 

[tweety]

Bellend has the same hold over Southgate as the fake Ronaldo has over Martinez, they can't be dropped.
To have any chance in the final him and Kane mustn't start, both passengers.

 

[Sky Blue]

Just sub the fucker, Southgate. Show some bollocks.
