***England v Chile Matchday Thread***

[joeinbrighton]

Chile are a good side. They shared a 3-3 draw with Colombia last month. Both of those sides have potential for a really good World Cup next summer. The attacking verve that Chile deployed under Bielsa has continued since his successor took over. Sanchez and Vidal, the latter of whom hasn't started tonight, are both pretty important players for them as is the Cardiff midfielder Madel.

Forster is playing sh!t.

 

[Icy Gull]

Lallana looks class to me.

Is Rooney gonna lose it soon?

Can Forster do anything apart from hoof the ball when it comes to him?

 

[mikeyjh]

I swear Milner is the new Barry, like an oil tanker slowly moving round the pitch with no particular purpose, compare him to Wilshere, chalk and cheese

 

[Broady]

Lallana looks very good. His close control is immaculate.

Rooney is wasted upfront on his own. Just don't understand why he's being played there

I'm liking Lallana, Rodriguez looks average

 

[Icy Gull]

We may be losing but I'm enjoying the South American flair of Chile.

Lallana has been heavily involved all half, not a bad debut from him, Rodriguez hasn't really had the opportunity to do much. I wanna see Lampard taken off Rooney moved back a little and Lambert up top.

Lambert is injured tonight and therefore is not among the subs.

For the Chile goal Cahill got a ball in the bollocks 10 seconds earlier, so never got to the cross that went over his head that the lad nutted in while Baines had his thumb up his arse.

lol my bad, i missed the first few mins (just made the goal) didnt see the bench.

Ukraine 1 up v France in the play-offs (after 74'). Iceland drew 0-0 with Croatia.

 

[del strangefish]

Ukraine Yes. Come on Sweden.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Cahill and Baines have been disappointing to say the least. Townsend's on thank God.

 

[del strangefish]

Drink Driver on for Chile

 

[Beach Hut]

Jara Reyes should have seen red for that head butt

 

[DumLum]

Chile have a bang average side featuring the likes of Gonzalo Jara Reyes.

Can't believe he didn't get a red then. I think he would have gone in a proper game.

Fug me, that's about as nailed on red as you'll see!! Wtf did Smalling do for a yellow ?

 

[Marxo]

Bu**er! Ronaldo scores v Sweden.

 

[Hyperion]

Well so far my view is that I prefer Hart to Forster, Rodriguez looked nervous and Lallana has looked decent enough considering its his first cap
