England v Belgium | Friendly | Match Thread

Doesnt help Bellingham attitude when you have commentators saying stupid things like 'he is the best in the world at the moment'

I mean do fuck of, what has he won ? Give me Rodri, KDB, Foden over Bellingham. Next we will be told mainoo is the second best player in the world.

if Bellingham played for City he wouldnt even get a mention.

Bernardo is better than Bellingham. There’s a case for Odegaard being on a par. Mainoo defo better.

England & Belgium are 3rd & 4th in the ranking, think that shows how shit international football is

 

[BlueHammer85]

Well said

 

[Hes the left back remember]

Just read the independent player ratings.
Guess who got rating of 6.... Yes Foden!
Bellingham an 8 FFS
They even gave Gomez who was roasted by Dokyu 7!!

Made of glass lads had more than his fair share of injuries, did look ok walking a half time though so hoping for the best.

Why the waistcoat picked him.
for another game in three days is anyone's guess. What doesn't he know about John. He knows his injury record and yet he picked him for a meaningless game.

 

[eastmanc]

You can't admit to never watching Madrid play and then say you've never seen him have an incredible game. Not really a fair assessment, is it? It'd be like a Madrid fan saying they don't think Foden is an incredible player but never watching City.

I don't think he was brilliant tonight, but then none of the England players were. An easier way of ending the debate, name five midfielders in the world who are currently better than him?

I think him and Phil are a very good partnership. They compliment each others game really well.

 

[eastmanc]

If Foden played for anyone else he'd be lauded as one of the worlds best players. As it is he's called very good and then they praise other players.

The praise for Manoo and Belingham on the TV last night was almost nauseous at times. Too much.

 

[Blue and true]

I think him and Phil are a very good partnership. They compliment each others game really well.

Agreed. Any success England may have in the future is contingent on these two players forming a partnership.

What's that now for Southgate 4 wins in 26 games against a top nation , and why the fuck is he playing stones again after 90 mins against Brazil? Get rid now before he wastes the talent we have

Too late bud.

 

[TShed]

Channel 4 spent last night squeezing their contractually obliged prepared scripts on anything Manure into their commentary whilst Foden was doing the sublime on our screens
