Euro 2016 watch

[slink]

You can't just not criticise someone because you like them, he should have got rid of it before he slipped. This is my worry with him, I don't want him doing that in an important game - if nothing else it could ruin his future confidence if he got absolutely slated for it

I don't think he should of got rid though. He should have played it back to Forster imo, taking on his man was an option and if he doesn't slip he's setting us on our next attack. Walker should have been 5 yards deeper for the square pass but wasn't. Stones didn't make an error, he slipped.

Then look at him coming out of the back to play that pass to Walcott, it should be encouraged because that's what he's good at not discouraged because the old way to play is to boot it as a centre half.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Drinkwater has done ok, but not enough to go to France.

Agreed. But at least Hodgson has had an opportunity to look at him.

Walcott showing some pace. Imagine having him and Vardy running at you...

 

[North West Wanderer]

I think you are probably right NWW - however, Milner has been dire and will still probably go.

Has the ability to cover a lot of positions. I'm no huge fan, but I get why he will go. I would be retiring him after this though if we want to move on

 

[North West Wanderer]

A long way behind Dier in that role. He's done ok but he's nowhere near that level.

Yep. Still be tempted to take Carrick there too. Appreciate I will be in the minority.

 

[North West Wanderer]

Or injured. I just don't think he's got the mental ability at international or champions league level.

There's a reason he's no longer at a top club....

 

[slink]

Not England but Payet has just scored a ridiculous free kick for France.

 

[Johnny75]

There's a reason he's no longer at a top club....

Indeed, but I can't agree with you on Carrick. No place for him anymore as his legs have gone and there's no way he's doing the Dier/ Milner role better than those two.

 

[North West Wanderer]

Luke Shaw is back in training. Here's hoping, although I would be amazed if United let him

 

[MARKakaJIM]

A long way behind Dier in that role. He's done ok but he's nowhere near that level.

I think Drinkwater would do better a job playing on the sides of the diamond or as one of a 3, he does a proper box to box role for Leicester so this sitting role isn't really where he's going to shine, that's Dier's bread and butter.

 

[North West Wanderer]

Indeed, but I can't agree with you on Carrick. No place for him anymore as his legs have gone and there's no way he's doing the Dier/ Milner role better than those two.

I prefer him to Milner there but Dier deserves the shirt.

 

[North West Wanderer]

That's not in the script!
Got what we deserve doing just, nothing

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Ooops. Referee not exactly winning a popularity contest here.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Can't legislate for that, shocker of a non-decision.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Wijnaldum offside on the line surely.

 

[Johnny75]

Ooops. Referee not exactly winning a popularity contest here.

He's been abysmal all night.

 

[slink]

I think he got the penalty decision right but the referee has given some very strange decisions tonight.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Wijnaldum offside on the line surely.

I am more concerned by the rather blatant foul on Jagielka.

 

[Carrotdude]

That was a shocker

 

[FrankMunro-371]

He's been abysmal all night.

A bit harsh. Though I would say that he has been inconsistent.

 

[Kenny]

A bit harsh. Though I would say that he has been wank.

yep
