Slovakia vs England - Euro 2016 - 20/06/16

[cleavers]

We barely had a sniff of goal with little or no creativity whatsoever.

That was the game I watched too. With so many young players, how can they be so slow at attacking, they resemble a poor PL side at best, and yet the majority play in the top 6 or 7.

Don't remember their keeper making a save.

To stretch a team that is parking the bus you need decent wingers or wingbacks. We missed Walker tonight. Sometimes when you are so dominant, it is counter productive, because the opposition can just sit and defend. But if you let them come out of their half, then you can counter attack and that is where the likes of Vardy and Kane get most of their goals. Not trying to feed off scraps and man marked by 3 or 4 players.

All these chances? Where?

I know. Can't remember their GK having a serious save to make. WTF are they on about?

Boring dross. Someone should tell Crimson Clive and that **** Hoddle that possession does not = pressure. We barely had a sniff of goal with little or no creativity whatsoever.

Agreed. Dominating possession and dominating the game are two different things.

29 shots, 5 on target, shows that we're not creating chances, we're knocking it about then taking pop shots.

But, Ian Wright & Glenn Hoddle think otherwise, so you know, that's something to think about.

Campaign to send Hoddle home. I'll donate a tenner.

Fuck that. Keep him out there. Just don't let him anywhere near a camera or microphone.

Handbags in the studio.

Wright getting called out on his bullshit, for once.

Already saying Russia draw was the problem which as it happens implicates Raheem Sterling.

No it doesn't, that's just more of that pathetic modern City fan unneeded paranoia

 

[Metalartin]

Well said Bilic... they didn't want to play and we didn't do enough with the ball.

I can see Portugal finish 1st in their group and Belgium finish 2nd in theirs. Meaning England comes up vs Iceland or Hungary. And Wales bs Belgium. Well ...
