Ted McMinn Football Genius Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 1 hour ago, FindernRam said: Croatia are a tough playing team. I'm not sure our kids are up to it, good as they are in the league. Stirling has a poor recent scoring record. I wouldn't start him, I think he unbalances the team. Given the fouls he wins I would start Grealish. 100% this @FindernRam ???????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marriot Ram99 Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 Doesn't look that bad to me,Sterling is a top player and he is faster than Grealish and makes more runs in behind which against a fairly slow defence will be an advantage. I would have gone for Bellingham over Phillips and Shaw over Trippier but other than that it seems a good enough line up. Maybe Trippier is playing for his set piece ability which is probably the best in the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoetheRam Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 How have the press seemingly got hold of the team before it's been officially announced? A leaky camp hardly seems a recipe for a strong team spirit. Also, Grealish is a good player but he is far far from 'must start' level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've probably got it wrong again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember years ago, Matt Le Tissier told his brother he was playing against Italy. The brother then went and blabbed to all and sundry and Italy suddenly had that extra bit of info they needed. Italy won the match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grealish man of the match in both games and clearly a top draw player yet he's sat on the bench. Starting a right back at left back. What will Chilwell and Shaw be thinking? Just staggering. Pathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just asking the question…the only person that was bothered in the slightest about what she said was you. I thought she did a great job in circumstances she has obviously never been in before. I thought It was honest and from the heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerTedd Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 15 hours ago, Derbados said: I agree, but the other pundits seemed to manage it much better, they spoke about the impact of football in general, to Christian and his family and the perspective of the situation they were in, Alex kept referring to herself and how she was feeling, texting her mum and then did it again when they came back on, speaking about how it impacted her etc etc. I just found it bizarre and quite narcissistic. maybe it’s just me and maybe I’m over analysing it. 6 posts later, I’d probably say you’re over analysing it. But two can play at that game. people on here saying they’ve texted their dad and friends about it. It puts everything in perspective and shows you how fragile life is. She was very emotional and showed real heart. Of course we’re all thinking of Erickson and his family, but she was able to put into words how some danish bloke collapsing on a pitch in Denmark can emotionally resonate and effect all of us. She put it into context. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a win with this format and you'll have a foot in the knockout stages. We might have half a chance if Scotland roll over for us then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure how any of that counts as 'pathetic' One might even call it courageous to play a full back on the opposite side and to not pick 'one of our best players'. The opposite of 'pathetic'. You might not agree with this alleged team selection and it might even make you angry but I don't see how such a selection is pathetic. PS Italy did just fine the other night with a right-footed left back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
