The one where he had a shot that was going wide that got headed in and where he couldn't get it past the first man when crossing twice. Looks lazy in comparison to Loftus Cheek and Lingard.

Alli plays under Pochettino, so I doubt work rate is an issue. He looked up for the Welbeck goal, it was evidently a cross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Tibbs Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Good result but thought we were quite sloppy, admittedly it was a makeshift side. Impressed with Henderson and Delph. Rashford was quality for the first 30, what a goal. Thought he made the wrong decision most of the time after that, was like watching Tom Lawrence. Welbeck keeping up his international goalscoring which is only a good thing, swear he gave the ball away every other time he touched the ball tonight though. Shame we've not got a third friendly to combine the best of the two teams we've put out this week. Nevermind, Come on England! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't care what he does for Spurs, didn't look interested first ten minutes when he came on. I do rate him, but not just based on tonight but the last two or three games for England he's looked a bit aloof to me. No way does he mean that as a cross. Delph played well tonight.

We can agree to disagree then. I thought Alli was one of the best players on the park when he came on, looked to actually have quality on the ball which we were severely lacking. Delph was good. So was Loftus Cheek. Was disappointed with Rashford's overall performance. Looked bright for the first 30, then started doing what he does for United and running into dead ends and over playing it.

Unless that was tongue in cheek and I'm missing a reference or something. I believe it is. However Leeds fans love to tell every other clubs fans that they are rock hard and don’t need a drum.

Thought Alli never hid, and always showed for the ball, and I like that..... but didn’t think he was no way near the best park on the pitch when he came on.

I thought for quality on the ball he was. He seemed to pick gaps in the defense that none of our other attacking players were finding. I thought it was a big improvement.

Inverurie Ram Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Enjoyed the atmosphere. 30,000 making far more noise than 80,000 at Wembley will ever do and enjoying themselves etc. Us Yorkshire folk like a sing song! Elland Road gave us a blast of this tune tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlsonDerby Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Agree that being there last night was so much better than being there at Wembley. Atmosphere was way better. Loved it. Did not love being sat in car park B for 1.5 hours after the game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramsbottom Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 I was presently impressed last night. It's nice to see us committing defenders by having the balls to take a man on in midfield (well all except Henderson) instead of going sideways and backwards for 2 minutes. Plenty of pace, plenty of movement Still expect us to get no further than the quarters but at least we shouldn't go out with a whimper this time... Starting XI ---------------------------Pickford ------------Walker-------Stones-------Maguire Trippier----Henderson--------------Dier----------Rose --------------------------Alli ------------------Kane----------Rashford Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IlsonDerby Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Pickford Walker. Stones. Cahill Trippier. Henderson. Rose Alli. Sterling. LC Kane Rashford, Maguire, Lingard and Alexander Arnold banging on the door for me (which is brilliant) but this is my XI for Tunisia based on qualifying and recent friendlies. Note: would have been Ox in place of LC if not for injury. Also would have Lallana in the 23 even though I know he’s been injured. Im excited now!
