[Rob Noxious]

The sofa beckons this evening. I'd love to see Cole Palmer start.

Pffft, the darts are on ;)

 

[Sandbach Shrimper]

Yay more pointless internationals during the busiest period of the club season.

 

[Holy Joe]

Interesting line up - is that zero upfront?

Very attacking midfield though!

 

[Holy Joe]

Yep - looks like it's 4-6-0, can imagine a few zoners having a meltdown at that formation on paper.

 

[The Original Tribal Chief]

**** poor thus far.

The similarities between England and Southend are there tbh.

We’ve gone from having a corner to conceding a free-kick near the halfway line, without the ball going into the box…. I ask you, England or Southend?

 

[Cricko]

Yawn.

And Pickford in goal having a mare (although I actually don't think Collin has done too bad so far I appreciate that seems to be a minority view)

What’s your nearest city for the 2026 tournament K? Dallas or Kansas?

Cookout at yours, innit

I'm back in Oregon mate, so Seattle will be the closest. Definitely going to try and get tickets.

Oh FFS

Vancouver and San Fran not too far either.

You watch, we’ll end up being drawn in Mexico or Toronto

 

[GBJ]

70 mins in, 1 shot on target.

What’s the gameplan? Retain possession until we can find the perfect pass for the perfect finish?

Dross

 

[Holy Joe]

I think we can conclude this experiment has failed - although it hasn't got any better since a forward has come on.

3 goals disallowed for Greece!

You know it mate. Little trip down south might be fun, as long as we get back alive.

 

[The Original Tribal Chief]

Comedy defending. Terrible. Carsley isn't it Chief.

 

[The Original Tribal Chief]

Clear penalty denied. Waiting for a gleeful TUIB now to crow about England's defeat.

Didn't even know England were playing
