World Cup Moaning Thread

He was poor against Belgium too. Shame as he was a real influence in the qualifiers. He just looks out of form.
He's just slow with the ball. Slow around the pitch. He's getting in the way of his team mates
 
No fan of Henderson, but he was mugged off by Southgate tonight. Made him look a fool by moving his position
 
Should you............
A: Enjoy the moment?
B: Whip your phone out and make an out of focus, shaky video?
C: Check if the camera is on you and behave accordingly?
D: Hurl beer in the air at some poor soul who was out having fun?

The world has changed..........
 
Big screen in town went off for 90 seconds so some clown thought throwing bottles at it would fix it.

Now damaged and not showing the game Saturday.

:mad::mad:
 
Just a thought - and without going back and checking all the videos -

Have other teams faced this Tunisia/Panama/Colombia rugby/WWE grappling defence in any games or has it only been us?
If so, have any of them actually been given penalties because of it?

Also, are any of the grappling sides left or can we now have a football tournament?

There have been a few I think of other than England but can't remember which games specifically (although 1 was in the very early games).

Uruguay of course are still in with the wily Godin in defence. And Suaréz has already made comments about showing France how hard playing Uruguay will be, implying it will be the usual kicking the opponents around the pitch.

And if that doesn’t work, biting them
 
Now all the South American teams have been eliminated....VAR misuse apart.... is there much else left to moan about re World Cup Finals 2018?

This.

From starting the tournament where we would have been happy with a quarter final finish, I think we'll now be very unhappy if we don't reach the final with the way the draw has gone.

Despite the fact that we've not actually been that impressive so far. Only 2 of our 9 goals have come from open play (one of those a lucky deflection), and conceded in every game so far. We're really good at set pieces, and that's it.

Sweden qualified for the tournament by knocking out the Netherlands and Italy, and topped a group with Mexico and Germany in. Yet we're still expecting to roll them over.

This is starting to feel like a real moan, so I'll temper it by saying at least the atmosphere is positive, and we're getting done what we need to do, which is more than in the past. I just feel we need another 4 years of rotating out the old, and bringing through some of the U21s, then we might be more nailed on as actual world beaters.
