Saka. He started off there for Arsenal. Can get up and down and provide width. Possibly a minor inconvenience to get about 4 other players into their best positions and give the team some actual balance.who plays on the left wing/back ?
We shall have to agree to dissagree on Rice, I think he's been very good for Arsenal. But agree entirely on his comments. He hasn't lowered himself to the level of McLean.class response. McClean just looks more foolish.View attachment 123370
Still think he's bang average but credit where its due, impressive and mature comments from Rice here in response to criticism.
and annoy st jude? are you mad?For God sake, take the shackles off Phil Foden Tonight and give him the freedom off the park
No nerves; City aren't playing.How’s the pre match nerves jimbo ?
Can’t get the fizzy stuff. But there's a local shop that occasionally has the Vimto you dilute. Those 2 (3?) litre bottles. 4:1 mixture. Lovely stuff.Ooohhh that’s even better apart from just two teensy weensy changes, steak and kidney pudding and real Vimto no bubbles in it. :-)

It’s a shame that young English players are being constantly goaded all the time, criticised and pushed into responding.
Wish everyone would leave them alone during the tournaments.
England have been underperforming against both Serbia and Denmark and If it was against France, Germany or Spain no chance of them playing with freedomTotally agree the pile in from the press since the first group game on various players doesn’t help and makes it look like they are playing with the weight of the world on their shoulders. The expectation is off the scale even though England’s last and only tournament win was 58 years ago, maybe if there wasn’t all this ‘it’s coming home’ shite every two years they might play with a bit of freedom and no fear.
Yeah, I'm goin' for a nerveless England win, and Foden to score if the bastards pass to him!No nerves; City aren't playing.
And yes; I'm totally serious.
If I was their coach. best strategy is to let us score in the first 5 mins.It is only Slovenia. Same with Croatia in 2018 and both Serbia and Denmark 2024. None of those sides were scared of England and two of those sides got something out of the game.
I think the vast bulk of the criticism has been reserved for Southgate. This narrative that the players are at fault is just deflection tactics.It’s a shame that young English players are being constantly goaded all the time, criticised and pushed into responding.

I agree. Everyone knows these payers play for the top clubs in europe (mostly). We've seen their quality. Theres no way they cant string 4 passes together unless they are set up in a system that prohibits it or they havent trained in any patterns of play.I think the vast bulk of the criticism has been reserved for Southgate. This narrative that the players are at fault is just deflection tactics.
"It's been a difficult time for the squad, what with Jay still missing and that."Has anyone got the Engerland excuses bingo card ready?

He’d do better if he was on the park.For God sake, take the shackles off Phil Foden Tonight and give him the freedom off the park
