England v Croatia | Euro 2020 Group Stage

[madloaf]

Take rice off then.
England had no joy whatsoever going forward against a fading Croatia. Except long balls

Its not pretty football for sure.

Good to see traditional match day thread standards being upheld for the Euros.

I think this one has been tame....


So far.

We’ll win this if Gareth gets his subs right

3-0 to Croatia then.

 

[Mr Kobayashi]

Put a fiver on Croatia to win (betfair exchange). Come on England don't let me down... I want a nice 1-0 loss and predictable naval gazing and hysteria.

5Live blaming the pitch? Who’s head of control there, Klipperty?

 

[mat]

Magliar playing well.

Local Albanian gangsters asked for an autograph?

 

[I'm Blue]

Agree mate, Rice not brave enough to take responsibility. Pickford and hoof ball the result.
Great first 20, but meh since

Puts the back 4 (and Pickford) under to much pressure.
They’ll slaughter them if they make a mistake and truth be told it’s terrible tactics that’ll cause it.

I'd look at getting Grealish on for one of the 2 DMs. Should be more options when England have the ball and a bit more creativity is required.

I Agree. We need someone to demand the ball in the middle. I feel phillips and especially Rice are hiding.

 

[Rammy Blue]

Rice is pointless, never moves, never shows for the ball.

Should hook him, bring Grealish on and move Phillips back to in front of back 4.

3-0 to Croatia then.

Definitely gonna bring a couple of right backs and Henderson on
