Wales v England - Tue 29th Nov, 19:00 | Group B | World Cup 2022

[Grealish’s Shinpads]

Surely can’t be the only one on here who can’t bring himself to celebrate when Rashford scores even if it’s for England…

Happy for Phil - hopefully see him start on Sunday

Has anyone checked on John Hartson tonight?

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

Just look at the names in the Wales squad mate, the lack of quality is scary for them moving forward.

They have exceeded expectations getting to the WC, but there is little to zero chance of them getting into one again with the squad they have.

 

[cheekybids]

We got a shit manager that plays the wrong formation and picks the wrong side , so beating them sides is pretty impressive when you think about it

We’ve got a billion pound star studded starting 11 & billion pound on the bench.

The German team are in disarray so it’s like City beating AC Milan now & saying it’s great cos they used to have Gullit, Rijkard & Van Basten.

To explain the quality In prem or champs league terms none of those are top 6 or likely to get beyond the group stages.

No.one can answer this or choose not to maybe you will step up. Under Southgate how many decent high ranked teams have England beaten in a euros or world cup?

Germany. That’s it I believe.

Righty o

Bet you hated us winning tonight

No but the whole of the football world knows about Germany's decline but you insist they were a good side when we beat them. So either you have no knowledge of the game since 2018 or you are blagging it.

I could give you the rankings for all those teams you mentioned and the clubs the players play for but it's too much effort for someone whose view is Southgate must be good coz we beat inferior teams.

People saying the first good team we face will probably knock us put isn't negative its common sense on what has gone before.

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

He scored two goals in a game England won. What do you expect?

Exactly - he's usually totally gash when playing for the rags, but the BBC still hype him up as though he is a proper player.

ie their opinions count for Fuck All.

 

[hilts]

Germany. That’s it I believe.

They weren't germany had huge problems in the previous 2 major tournaments.

 

[The Stockport Iniesta]

They have exceeded expectations getting to the WC, but there is little to zero chance of them getting into one again with the squad they have.

Exactly, the Wales squad would be relegation fodder in the PL.

It wouldn't be the ideal scenario. But if England were to go all the way and actually win the bloody thing (don't laugh, and no; I'm not drunk, or stoned), winning every round 1-0, and the only goalscorers were Maguire Shaw and Rashford, I'd take it.
