Many of us here can recall Bill McClaran,plus Carpenter,Coleman,even Des in his younger days. Now apart from Claire Balding and maybe Matt Smith (?) what both BBC and ITV just talk drivel like tonight in the football WHY WAS NOT hodgson CHALLENGED 1-2-1 on why Kane was taking corners ?

True though. Who was supposed to be on the end of Kane's inswingers? those fine imposing headers of a ball, Sterling and Lallana?

I agree, it makes no sense at all.

Should have asked Hodgson was it a tactic to have Kane take corners and to over hit them so nobody got near one and they sailed out for throw ins ?

I was starting to worry that they'd been watching old Albion videos at that point (pre-Skalak), though our specialism was always more "hit it to the first defender" with the occasional "punt it right out over everyone's head for a goal kick" thrown in for variety.
