The Road To The Desert: World Cup 2022 Qualification

[AndyWolves]

England very good

Albania look hopeless

 

[Tony Towner]

Nuno must be stroking that beard tonight

 

[PuntsWolf]

We were comfortable going man for man in the back 3 which meant there’s overloads everywhere further up the field. Obviously helps when the opposition are so poor that you are comfortable to go 1v1.

 

[AndyWolves]

The only negative for me has been Phillips.

 

[Johnny75]

England basically playing with a back 2 and one holding midfielder for that 3rd goal. Hope Bruno is taking notes.

Our issue is Semedo isn't Reece James and João isn't a box to box midfielder.

Narrow forwards too.

This is close to Tuchel's 3-4-3.

I did actually think Semedo could be Kyle Walker but he’s not good enough in the air and Coady isn’t John Stones

I think he would make a great national team manager. ROI?

 

[Loki]

Thought hr would have subbed Kane at half time.

Would help if he had the service at Spurs he had tonight. Often isolated this season we played at times with a front 5! That’s not Nuno

 

[Tony Towner]

Coady winning his 8th cap tomorrow

 

[Jack Regan]

Probably the most preposterous handball for a penalty I've ever seen in the England game.

Probably the most preposterous handball for a penalty I've ever seen in the England game.

And it’s killed the game as a spectacle.

Oof, listen to the boos when Bellingham "scored".

Was that because we played on with a man down though?
Goal chalked off because Abraham is a donkey and kicks like one

Nice finish from him there though 9 0

 

[Jack Regan]

Definitely down to them having a player down injured. No reaction to either Mings or Abraham's goals.

Double figures up.

 

[Throbber3]

Saka 10

 

[BillyDee]

Absolutely pointless game. The sooner tiering is brought in the better.

 

[Wilf Wolf]

I watched the last 20 minutes of the N Ireland - Italy game, top entertainment by comparison with shooting fish in a barrel in San Marino.
