Other football

It wouldn't be a summer tournament without Engerlund stinking the place out

[Trumo]

The thing about England's coaches is that they all bang on about the importance of possession, team unity and hard work but they drum all this into the players in such a way that the players have no clue what to do when they're in possession, nobody is prepared to take a game by the scruff of the neck, and the opponents can still do all of this while working their arses off. And this is the theme with generation after generation of England youngsters, which isn't going to be cured simply by investing in state-of-the-art facilities. 

[Russ Atmosphere]

Consistency in the style of play across the England teams at every level.

 

[Dr Nowt]

Think the phrase Darke was searching for re Kane there was "greedy cunt".

[Jairzinho]

Finishing like a Liverpool player, Ings.

[Denny Crane]

Oof.

Southgate on Sven's 2002 WC half-time teamtalks. "We were expecting Churchill but we got Iain Duncan-Smith." Over to you Gareth ...

Not sure there's a more annoying name in football just now than Ruben Loftus-Cheek.

 

Like something you'd get out of a random word-generator.

He's related to Carl Cort a player most famous for being the answer of Shola Ameobi to an interviewers question 'What does Bobby Robson call you?'

[Jairzinho]

Herp.

[Mr T]

"Danny Ings will be really disappointed with his first touch this evening, because the ball just keeps coming off him."

 

From Lawro.

 

 

[Gnasher]

I can see England pinching this.

[Russ Atmosphere]

Upside, Ings gets a holiday.

[magicrat]

Missed it,  I assume Ings was borderline shite from some of the comments,

[mouse1989]

Won't judge Ings playing for this shower of shite. It's mainly filled with championship players who is managed by Southgate of all people

The FA let's the owl and Southgate manage it's two main international teams....

 

I bet they genuinely wonder why they keep finishing bottom of their groups in these tournaments.

So, not altogether different from Liverpool then.

[Sandman40]

Ilori substituted due to injury in the Portugal U21 match today.  At least his limped off on his own.

[Jairzinho]

South American national anthems are ace.

Gah! Chile vs Uruguay, can't resist. Will have to put off watching Daredevil for an hour.

[Jairzinho]

Uruguay are going full Pulis.

[Red Phoenix]

Started with a shit stream, then tried another which worked well, but it has a geordie and an american commentating. The geordie just said :

"This game has been pulsating, oscillating at a frequency that would deafen a bat!"

Wondering who it is, it's bein sports. Anyone know?

[Red Phoenix]

Where's Luis? Fuck, the ban, nm.

[Jairzinho]

Still banned.

 

 

If Chile could find a quality finisher to replace Vargas they'd be one of the top five or six teams in the world.

You're listening to Ray Hudson.

 

Think I must have been watching it on Premier Sports or Astro Supersport. Switching over to Ray's acid trip for the second half.

[Red Phoenix]

You're listening to Ray Hudson.

Hahah, cheers! Have heard him a few times in recent years, never knew who it was.

 

Still banned.

Yeah with a top striker they'd be amazing, still are at times obviously.
