At least Llorente only cost us a fifth of the fee scum paid Leicester for that donkey.

I just saw it on a clickbait site which was "insisting" that Leeds must start the wee man in our next game. :lol: :lol:
Yes it was played in the early hours of Sunday morning, Ian.

And yes Sinisterra should start, he knows where the net is, Luis rarely misses the target from what I've seen of him this season.

I didnt realise that 16 of Harry Kane's England goals were pens which is the most by a distance.

2 against San Marino
1 against Andorra
2 vs Panama.

Next on the list is

Lampard 2nd with 9.
Rooney with 7
Ron Flowers with 6
Shearer with 6.
Beckham with 5
Lineker with 4.
Signed

Given us many occasions to celebrate, The WC and Euro runs were fantastic entertainment. Best period I've ever known as an England fan. Having lived through the abysmal periods of Hodgson, Capello, Eriksen, Keegan, I'm completely happy about what Southgate has given us over the past few years.

Venables gave us one good summer. Hoddle had promise but was short lived. Taylor was a complete joke. Loved Italia 90 under Robson. But remember he was completely under fire and just managed a couple of good results in his last couple of games.

Knock Southgate all you want. But he's given us our best period of success in over 50 years. And, since I'm living overseas, it's the first time in a long time I'm not completely embarrassed to be an England fan.

Last game b4 the WC and Tomori who's been on fire recently doesn't play yet a donkey does, and again GS talks garbled nonsense about how it will do the lads good to have had this shite run of games.

Work that out.

Only England could do this, no way would Germany Spain etc have a manager in charge that has done absolutely nothing at club level.

He's full of the gab and another that talks a good job.

Better from England last night. Even in the 1st half, whilst Germany had the lions share of the ball, the best chances still fell to England on the break.

2nd half was an excellent half of football - 6 goals some excellent ones amongst them, Havertz’s and Mount's the pick, England coming back from 2 goals down to lead but individual errors from Maguire and Pope letting Germany off the hook.

If there are matches like that in the World Cup then at least it should be entertaining, still don’t see England making much of a splash though and getting out of the group stages would be an achievement.

Just a further observation - does anyone else agree that Sterling, these days, is half the player he used to be? He seems to have lost a few yards of pace, very often loses the ball cheaply and is nowhere near as dynamic as he was.

How Maguire makes the team after that I’ll never know. And I didn’t know anyway. GS blindly goes where no one else does.
Yes Sterling is as slow as Kane but with 1/20 the ability.
Pope looks a bit shaky too

Yep, there are better than Sterling, our PB could probably do a better job if Kane plays alongside.

We can't put any decent side to the sword atm and we should be able to.

Your observation is correct :tup: Pep probably had similar reasons for moving Sterling out of Citeh.
