My god this game is awful, the crowd are dead, the team are just going through the motions.

Bring on Ox and Barkley, and Lallana too pls Woy... pls....!!!

The lad is going from a high pressing high intensity Liverpool formation to a static shit one with no runners, the leagues in form striker out wide and no fucker in the box.

Henderson is the type of player that flourishes in a specific role he's never going to be the type to play in a midfield two with the instructions of ''do stuff''. Have him pressing high and the match will change.

That's kind of the point though, you need football intelligence at this level regardless of instructions given. I agree with you to an extent though, I mean the tactics are fucking awful but that's standard for England so we need people who take it on themselves at least a little bit.

He did the same kind of games for the U21's as well, went hiding and let games pass him by.

Bit harsh. Look what Moyes is doing to all the internationals on his team. Nobody will play their best football under a shit manager.

Danny Welbeck warming up?

Oh do fuck off you silly cunt.

Shaw playing well, should have started anyway. Lallana to come on and actually do something, but Welbeck too... agh!!!

I need a club to support, this shit kills me, my football soul has shrivelled up thanks to the FA.

You don't support Liverpool???

No, they just have a lot of English players, and one of my favourites in Sturridge. I like the Saints too because of that reason, used to watch a lot of West Ham back when their academy were producing players.


Welbeck... sigh... wait Sturridge is still on the wing? Welbeck is played as the striker over Sturridge? Is this real life?

Rekik has come on for his first senior Holland cap. What a prospect he is.

Emyr Huws started for Wales as well! Seems he is still on the pitch into the final quarter of the game. Not sure if Bersant Selina played for Kosovo or not.

What top-class players have Holland got at the moment aside from Robben?

edit: Strootman I guess

No one.

We're fucked once Van Persie and Robben call it quits. There is no huge talent, no decisive players at the big clubs. Its not the 90's - 2010 anymore. We're small fry.

I hope France will bag a few more. Van Gaal doesn't want to realize the Eredivisie is a bag of shit, he rates it at the same level as Serie A etc. Maybe after tonight he finally wakes up.
