Peter H Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 Good luck tonight but I hope Sweden win. England vs Sweden, hope to see Pickford and Holgate get a good work out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornish Steve Posted June 19, 2017 Report Share Posted June 19, 2017 The media are blaming Holgate and Pickford for Slovenia's goal. I didn't watch the match: Is the criticism justified? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted June 19, 2017 Report Share Posted June 19, 2017 (edited) The media are blaming Holgate and Pickford for Slovenia's goal. I didn't watch the match: Is the criticism justified? The scorer was Holgate's man and he lost him. Pickford probably could've positioned himself better. Holgate was useless at RB as usual and was subbed at half-time..

Lowensda Posted June 20, 2017 Report Share Posted June 20, 2017 For me, if you're playing at an international level (whatever the age category) there should be no one playing out of position or not playing in their strongest poistion. Don't care how many good options you have at CB, Don't fucking squeeze them in "because you have to". Get the best player in that position and play them. Worst case scenario you tear to shreds the young lads confidence and destroy what slim chance he has of making it at the very top. We seem to be the only international setup that loves to fuck about. Makes me angry. Romey 1878 and Sibdane 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elston Gunnn Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 (edited) Mason did not look good on Germany's tying header. 2-2. Not close to his man, who scored an excellent header. Nor, tbh, did he pick up quite quickly enough on Germany's first goal. Germany much better than England most of this match.

EFC-Paul Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 Gave a good account of themselves in all fairness and lost to a better side I can't see many from that side going on to have great careers tbh only a handful the rest look destined for mediocrity MikeO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elston Gunnn Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 Sandro very active, no goals, but definitely promising. Hope we sign him. Deulofeu also active, played well, good threat both as crosser and shooter, but ..... gassed at 65 minutes. Subbed at 83 minutes. Spain-Germany a good final on Friday.

Really disappointed with the quality at times. Pickford was the best passer in the team! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holgate should have done more in that situation (not the first time) but Baker should have been attacking that ball as the front post man. I just watched it back and he doesn't know whether to stick or twist! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
