Fucking weak-ass foul Walker has just won. Hate those.

Shoved in the back, foul all day long

 

[Jack Regan]

As a spectacle so far it's been fucking shite!

 

[Alan]

"Shove", my ass. Those are weak. Get in the weight room.

Unrelated, apparently Lamine Yamal's father is younger than Jesus Navas.

If youre running as fast as Walker was and you get shoved in the back you’re probably leaving the ball behind, or messing up your touch. When without the shove you’re charging at their back line full tilt - which is why he shoved him

Have you ever been pushed in the back when you’re running full twat? You’re going over. It was a foul.

 

[Deano]

Nothing in the game. The worry is when the other team has 70 percent possession they will naturally get a few more chances as we tire so we need to offer some more threat on the break than this..

 

[PuntsWolf]

Ref has had a good game. Probably been the best thing about the match so far…

 

[The Bear]

Another 45 mins of Kane offering the square root of fuck all. Unless he's injured he's done at international level.

I have, I’m a twiggy little bitch but I’ve done contact sports.

It’s my least favorite thing in soccer; defenders get a wild benefit of the doubt in those situations. It’s almost always given but it’s weak and shouldn’t be, IMO.

 

[Boozad]

Of course I have, just in my sport we didn’t fall over at a breath.

He shouldn’t have his hand on him at all, he just rinsed him. A push in the back at the speed Walker was running is always going to send you over and it’s a foul.

It just seems weak because it takes so little to unbalance someone in that situation.

Doesn't make it any less of a foul than shoving someone over shoulder to shoulder.

Defenders going down is a completely different scenario at the opposite end of the pitch!

 

[Lupo]

I don't want to judge him for being his own fan, necessarily, but Foden having 47 tattoo'd on his neck is a lot.

To give him the benefit of the doubt, the significance of 47 is its the age his dad was when he died

I just simply can’t agree with this. Does Walker get touched, yes. Is it really enough to send him tumbling? Absolutely not, IMV, he just stops moving his legs so that he falls.

 

[Boozad]

Kane absolutely has to come off, it’s like we’re playing with ten. Not sure if I’d bring Watkins or Toney on but we need someone to occupy their centre backs because Kane really isn’t.

Welp. Now I’m even more of a twiggy little bitch!

Of course its enough to send him over at that pace, it's foul

 

[Boozad]

I’ll be happy to disagree with that take all day long to be fair.

He's been rubbish all tournament, his first touch has been garbage and turns the ball over every time he tries to hold it up.
