Well done England. Had to turn off when Lampard came on though, I'm having me dinner soon.

First England assist by a Leeds player since?

Re: Today's Games - England v Croatia. 2pm
Interviewer asked Sterling if he felt he justified his selection?

The interviewer certainly didn't justify their job. Stupid question.

Kane struggling on BBC's player rating too at around 4.7. Kalvin winning by a mile

Best player on the pitch who produced a magnificent performance in the biggest game of his career. Leeds fans know all too well about his ability, but today the World stood up and took notice. Beaming with pride.
Kalvin Phillips vs. Croatia:
44 touches
94% pass accuracy
31/33 successful passes
7 ball recoveries
4 duels won
3/3 successful long passes
2 successful take-ons
1 tackle won
1 interception
1 assist
Magnificent performance and provided the all-important assist at

Re: Today's Games - England v Croatia. 2pm
Controlled perfect start by Ingerland. What a performance from Kalvin, i'm not gonna lie my bottom lip was quivering a few times throughout the game. Not only is it great to see a Leeds lad represent England impeccably, i couldn't help cast my mind to think how his family would be thinking and especially his late Granny Val.
I thought Walker was poor particularly first half and i couldn't help think that England set-up was made for Ayling. There is no better, fitter attacking RB in England. Special mention for Mings i thought the lad was excellent.
Top 4 England players for me.
Phillips 10
Mings 9
Sterling 8
Rice 8

Re: Today's Games - England v Croatia. 2pm
WTF, was what I first thought when I saw '1 tackle won', then I notice 7 ball recoveries and 4 duels won. And that - while it more accurately described what he did - had me more confused as I don't know the difference between recovering the ball, winning a duel and winning a tackle.1964white wrote: ↑Sun Jun 13, 2021 3:11 pm Best player on the pitch who produced a magnificent performance in the biggest game of his career.

Re: Today's Games - England v Croatia. 2pm
Great performance by England and Kalvin was absolutely fantastic
Brilliant killer pass for the goal
We're gonna win it if we keep playing like this
