Sterling is a fucking rat isn't he?

Looked like he couldn't kick a football 3 weeks ago. Now a competent footballer all of a sudden. 

Obvious, players gave up trying as they didn't want to get injured for WC. 

Another reason why we was so bad before WC. 

So do expect to play a bit better after the WC is over and the players get back some chemistry going again.

OK it's Iran, this game was tighter than I thought

Fucking slabhead is shit even in a blowout, blew the clean sheet and looked lost at times against a dogshit side

[robsblubot 3,595]

For the competing sides, and I consider England to be one of them, the tournament begins in the single-elimination stages. And for that, it's far more important to have a defensively solid side than one which can put on a show against the weak sides in group states.

That's one of the notorious pitfalls of the World Cup where many sides playing top football were knockout by defensively built lesser teams.

This is time for adjustments, but yeah they will scrutinize the 2 goals conceded against such a weak side... despite the big win.

WORLD CUP QATAR | USA VS WALES – S2

[Vincent 403]

He must have been saving it for his national team, I haven’t seen him give a pass like that for us in ages.

Mendy is to blame for Netherland's second - he should have used his palms to send the ball out for a corner kick.
For the first I don't know, maybe because he is not big enough.

[robsblubot 3,595]

Netherlands was and is the far better side... normal result for me. Mendy is also just showcasing his current poor form.

Pulisic is definitely carrying his poor Chelsea form over to the WC. I have a hard time criticizing him though, because he's one of the few lucid players in that team.

Watching commentary here in the US is funny: they talk about players with energy "who are all over the place" as if that was the key to win... and yet they can't do simple one twos with Pulisic. Also, not a word on that ridiculous penalty on Bale... the US defender clearly does not know what sport he's playing. 🙂 

Second half showcases how important strength in depth is.

Awful Awful second half.

 

 

Did lucky to hold on to the draw. I think long as we beat Iran it should be enough to go through.

Bit annoyed at the vast pundits, out in Qatar, heavily criticising Qatar for their cultures and laws (although the culture and law is an absolute shambles and the discrimination and human rights out there are a joke).

Talk about hypocrisy at its finest, their getting paid to be there. Surely a bigger statement would be not to go - send a real message. Everyone of them from Gary Neville to Rio Ferdinand to Alex Scott, the financial side of things clearly outweigh sending the right message. 

Also the FAs who bottled the one love captain armbands are a joke. Don’t say your going to make a statement if your not going to, embarrassing.
