England v Ukraine. Thoughts / predictions / bets

[perseus]

Wilshere seems to be constantly giving the ball away. He's not the only one who has been, granted, but most of his passes seem wayward

He is no Scholes !

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Look on the bright side it's only the final ball stopping us from completing a passing sequence of......











One.

We've got to give the youngsters a chance. Germany done it a few years back and they will be there or there about's again next tournament.

Just realised, no-one from Man Utd in the starting 11, don't remember the last time this happened.

Very interesting question. Any statto's out there care to enlighten us?

 

[Pavilionaire]

No, replays show the player was looking for it.

Players who are looking for it get pens all the time. Michael Owen won a couple of crucial pens for England and later admitted he was looking for them and went down easy. I still think it was a pen here.

Fascinating stuff (the match, not this thread).

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Wiltshire is having a mare

 

[Pavilionaire]

I think Hodgson should keep this line-up, let Ukraine blink first.

Wiltshire is having a mare

Agree. He seems to run straight into an opposition player every time he has possession.
Think we'll see Barkley on for him before long.

Wiltshire is having a mare

No such player I'm afraid

 

[Buckley's Mad Eye]

Two pretty average teams on display, well done to those that traveled.
