The best football analyst on TV - by a mile is Johnny Giles, the former Leeds midfielder and WBA and Ireland manager. The guy can see things happening during a game way before they unfold. Last week on Irish to he was raving about Iceland, their approach to the game, how disciplined they were, their work rate and their tenacity. He said that no matter who they played they would make the other team beat them.

Remember Iceland won their qualifying group - and knocked out Holland,

We haven't got one player capable of beating a player with skill. We are shocking

I am going to be SO cross if we shank this game. Unforgiveable. Shameful. I blame the Daily Mirror for hounding out our best ever manager (Venables). And my parents, for not being German.

HT 1-2. Sterling is not the answer many (including me) thought he might be. Sturridge slightly better. Kane awful as he has been all tournament. Rooney forgotten how to finish. Hart :facepalm:

For a part time film director I'd say their keeper is doing pretty wall compared to Hart

Just had an almighty row with my wife after their 2nd goal. I jumped up and Fd and blinded across the sitting room.

Said she couldn't sit with me unless I calmed down. Told her she has no passion etc..

Smash her back doors in later when England come back for a courageous win. We'll be alright mate. :thumbsup:

This England team has to be made up of remainers😉

Now let me see, little teamwork, massive over-confidence, exaggerated sense of entitlement, inability to think things through, can't see the bigger picture. Nah, they're Leavers.

we pass the ball better than in previous tournaments but we are still entirely ineffective.

****ing Shite as ever.

How does a national team with a variety of different players and different managers consistently manage to be so much less than the sum of its parts. It beggars belief it really does.

Iceland have a settled side. We don't.

Roy has chopped and changed all tournament.

Hart and Kane are well off form. Have been every game.

We still have a chance. Roy will need to be bold with his substitutions. A la Wales.


You're wrong Hart is a poor keeper end of. Fails time and time again in big games.

I expect Roy will put on all his strikers and hope for the best like in the Wales game. Absolutely ****ing clueless.

Sterling is useless - and always has been. Kane is a terrific forward but no matter how good you are you can't score if you don't get the service. Rooney seems to have lost interest and Hart is playing his way into a very small paycheck.

Vardy could change things - he has the pace to trouble Iceland.

If he had used some sense with his team selection he wouldn't need to be bold with substitutions.

Kane, Sterling, Hart, Rooney, Sturridge are absolute shite. How can you be expected to win an International with those clowns wearing England shirts?
