F*** it, I love this club even more!
Have to go back to the 1982 WC v Kuwait since I felt as proud of an Albion player in an England shirt !!

More than a little upset that Lewis was not mentioned in the post match talk. I did think that after a performance like that he should have got some praise but it is what it is!

If Dunk had got 50 caps I think most of those would have been as a non-Albion player so IMO sort of pleased he has been overlooked as he has been key to our survival and development in the Premier league.

Yeah, but you watch Tranmere, not the Albion so I get why you’d think like that
Tranmere AND the Albion thank you very much

Discussed on fivelive post match talk. Apparently there is an interview with him coming up... but probably not....
Superb result and put the sweatys in their place as usual
Putting the jocks in their place is what means most to me and I’m delighted Dunk was part of the destruction of a third rate football team on their own turf.
Long may they boo our national anthem and if they want their independence they can have it together with the economic costs

"Maguire became just the second substitute to score an own goal for England, after Eric Dier against Australia in May 2016."
(BBC Sport Match Stats)
Dier Maguire.
Less of a list, more of a general comment.

Spot on. And then rebuild Hadrian’s Wall.
You’re falling into the trap expertly set Salmond, who also wanted the English to tire of the Scots. The nationalist card.
Most Scots who support their team wouldn’t want independence. Remember there are born n bred Scots who instead support the ROI.
Is it right England have won every game a Brighton player was in the team?
That’s right. When they put their “sensible” hats on they realise Scotexit is a silly idea, but when they put their football scarves on they hate England.
Ps - some Scots also support NI but I’m not sure what that has to do with anything

Born and bred Scot’s who also support the Albion; it’s not binary.
I don’t want independence.
I also won’t mention England fans who started chanting ‘England, England’ in minutes silence to remember Craig Brown.
it’s footie innit
If Dunk is scoring well in the public votes that’s a huge compliment as they’re always going to be skewed towards players from the clubs with most fans. From what I saw he was typically magnificent. The dynamic is interesting. You could see his disappointment when Harry Maguire messed up but more reserved than the reaction you’d expect if that happened in an Albion game. As it has to be I suppose for the ‘new boy’ but, in every other way, his body language said ‘natural leader’. Heartened to see so much play going through him. It looked like the senior players trusted his touch completely. Really hope he’s made a big impression this time.

Got plenty of praise during the match and in the moments after the final whistle by the commentary team. His performance has not gone unnoticed.

We run through some of the key talking points from Englands 3-1 friendly win over Scotland; Phil Foden, Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane were on target for the Three Lions, while substitute Harry Maguire scored an own goal

For 4 short weeks in the summer of 1990, Gazza was the possibly best player in the world. It’s tragic that he seemed to have so many mental health issues the contributed to the demise of his career from that point onwards, and I don’t think his mates helped either.

Have done Similar. I said to them (all Arsenal and Utd fans) at work the year we were promoted that Dunk would play for England.
