Can't help themselves. Our most threatening player by miles. If him and Grealish had started it would have been game over before HT.

It was.

There’d of been a studio full of jizz if Mbappe Messi or even Bellingham had flicked that ball through the trap door to break the lines & followed it up with two assists, then we’d of had to listen to Wio & co doing the same on the next show

FOTMOB had him as Man of the Match, which I agree so this is a pisstake, surely?

I've seen that and also whoscored had it the other way wound with bellingham motm and phil 2nd.
1st or 2nd on either is very good and makes the point.

Redeemed himself

View attachment 62757

" Redeemed himself " - utter cunts.

Can you imagine the reports from the same fucking media wankers if Phil played for the rags or dippers ?

Where are the comments for the fact that Southgate has chosen Mount over Phil for the other games ??

It is Southgate who has partially redeemed himself after his shit selections previously !

It dosent matter what thease wankers don't write about Phil any partly knowledgeable football fan knows how good he is.

Long article in the Guardian praising him to the skies

So much for the written press, but ITV were full of praise for Foden last night. Keane and Neville were leading the way, followed by Wright, and with Pougatch feeding the debate. If they were to be asked who England's most important players were, I'm sure they would all have said Foden / Bellingham.

Edit. Wright might have put Saka up there with them.

Phil was key in all 3 goals yesterday.
1st tme backheel flick to break the press and turn around their back 4 for the first.
1st time pass and assist behind Koulibally to Kane to enable a 1st time shot.
Retrieved a sloppy Bellingham pass which was half cut out, body swerved away from a desperate challenge and slipped it through Kouliballys legs this time for an assist as a Saka tap in.
Without him we don't create any of those goals yesterday.
Just watched a Sky montage of the victory and build up to all goals. They failed to even mention Phils name once in the commentary whilst blowing smoke up Bellinghams and Sara's arses. That was deliberate in my opinion. Make of it what you will.

Great summary of his goal involvement.
