Such a stark difference in quality of style.

One team plays one touch through the lines. Southgate ball is get in down the wings and fling it in the box. It's 1990's stuff.

Well done Ollie. Bluenose decided not to throw his leg at that

Indeed.

Who's the co-commentator btw?

Rob Green

Ezri don't get hurt

Maguire shocking positioning

Gallagher's stache 

Funny shade of blue for Brazil's away kit

I guess he was England's 830rd capped player.

That would have been my guess but that seems a little odd to have it up on the screen - whatevs

Come on Ollie. FFS don't get bloody injured

What does number #830 mean about Venables?

Gazza. Hope he's well.

Just seen the 2 Brazilian CBs are making their debut, it's a 20 year old kid from PSG and a guy from flamengo, 0 caps and 8 games in Europe between them 

Hope Ollie grabs a 1st half hat-trick

I always thought Rob Green was quite small. He's actually very tall.

Probably the most interesting thing that happens when watching Southnobs England.

Good chance to see Maguire and Stones together.  I like it.

He really is such a cocknose

And I think we should play 4-2-3-1

Gk will be dinosaur arms because of his kicking and he's very much part of the never let me down gang 

Walker - Konsa - up for grabs - up for grabs

Stones - rice 

Saka - Bellingham - foden

Kane 

Attacking LWB as stones and Walker can cover, we'd effectively play 3 when in attack using the LB like Moreno 

You see, you're thinking about tactics here, and forgetting that Southgate's main skill is making sure the boys have a pool table and ping pong, and nice fluffy duvets at night.

His tactics consist of letting Hendo & Phillips keep things calm and boring people to death.

As a casual fan of a lower league side, it's pretty grim.

Again, modern football is shit.  The greed is insufferable.

Full doc on YT. 

It's not as if noone saw what would happen. But, as always, greed wins.

I was very excited by Amazon, because they sold my favourite thing - books. Then they added my other favourite thing - CDs. An online books and records shop, specialising in just those two categories, instead of all the other boring stuff. Perfect. 

And they basically killed book and record stores 

boo.com - heralded to be the number 1 shopping site in the world in the late 90's.

Relied heavily on flash and the homepage took minutes to load 

Meanwhile little upstart Amazon.com looked like this

Boo.com spent around $125 million in 6 months !!

Kate wipes standing up and has been exiled as a result 

She saw the Queen morph back into her true form (grey lizard) as she was beamed back up to the mother ship to be ground down into slop to spray onto grain crops across the US.

Kate didn't take this very well and since has been locked in the tower.

Roy Keane rambling on about Utd is nauseating

The shot of that little United fan crying with relief, that is football at it's best.

Yeah he'll be crying all the way home in the car down to Surrey

I'm very very concerned by our midfield for this game. No Kamara, Ramsey or McGinn is proper bare bones. Don't think Rodgers or Iroegbunam are ready and we can't afford to shift Luiz/Tielemans too much.

For these games I'd be very tempted to play Pau as a defensive midfielder. He would add to the midfield and Konsa and Lenglet can carry on with what they did during Pau's injury layoff. None of it is ideal though.

              Martinez

Cash Konsa Lenglet Digne

                  Pau

Bailey Tielemans Luiz Diaby

         Watkins (I hope!)

 

No Watkins, then we're in MASSIVE trouble.

Chambers can play as a CDM
