I don’t know who is more dislikable ?  professional sympathy shiller Rio Ferdinand, a MAN who we are led to believe is distraught with grief over the death of his wife but in reality it’s likely

That's the thing mate, Foden and Palmer don't play in the same position, Foden wants to play as a number 10 and that is his best position, Palmer plays out wide naturally... that being said I thought

As much as he gets maligned , that fifteen minute period at the start of the second happy shows exactly why we need McGuire . That defence looked all at see there , no unifying voice , no loud commands , absolutely his business and it’s missing there . 

I don’t know how but to phrase it , and I know this will bite me , but saka is the master of “ i  need to push this past him and knock on , but I’ll get pushed over , so I won’t “ it’s a lack of belief that shouldn’t be in a player of his talents .

england have not won a tournament since they have had a black player in the team😮

Ironically I think we Will see bellingham rise to be the first English player to be spoken about as an all time great of the  highest quality .

B Charlton, Bobby Moore, Shearer, Greaves Banks, perhaps Rooney. All time greats Stiff.

Modern players are fitter,more clued up and play on grass not mud. But the above ,and a few more, were greats of the highest quality imo. Three of the above won the World Cup . Pretty good going!

Bellingham will win England a trophy . 

hes a twenty year old Englishman and he’s arguably the best player in the world at the minute . 

He’s won more this season than shearer did in two decades buddy .

Zindane said the very same he also said he was gutted he wasn't french as Bellingham would lift them the title given his intelligence and vision

Literally spent the whole game watching him mate , he’s genuinely a class class act . Everything about him is basics done well , never ever gets himself hassled or hurried.  
i watched him for Dortmund against rangers in the champions league and thought he was very standard . Looking back , I wasn’t thinking how at 17 , he was faultless that game . 

watch how he sits in that half turn , and if he’s back to travel , look how aware he is of tge ball and where it’s best to go . 

20 years old , at Real Madrid , player of the la liga , champions league and title winner , now standing on a pitch , pointing passes, snapping orders at players from Man City and Liverpool like they have won a charity space in a testimonial . we’ve never had a player like him in this country , like winning the lottery

Don't disagree about Bellingham at all.

Shearer played in a bum team and still holds the premiership all time goalscoring record. A world class player imo. A side issue,but I respect his decision to turn down Man Utd as well. Professionally bonkers, but I applaud him.

He was his own man.

Depressing pundit though.  Bring back Saint and Greavsie.

Wouldn't mind seeing how Palmer would slot in instead of saka as he seems to have a bit more about him defensively but i thought saka had a good first half

England could do with a classy centre half. Stiff Maguire is nowhere near the standard required, same for Stones.

A ball playing , composed centre half in the style of Ferdinand is required I reckon.

Totally agree I and many other fans must forget his age given his performances his touch vision he has everything and when zindane his banging his praises at that age you know he's a different talent to most and from what I have I seen of him off the pitch he's a very level headed and humble lad a credit to his parents

Do you not think McGuire adds Value in the three lions though ? More than the sum of his parts ? When he’s not there the defence looks messy . 

I think he neatly slides in and leads the line very well for country allowing stones and others to deal with threats he points out . A hard quality to replace imho . 

rice was imperious tonight also
