You only have to look at Odegaard's treatment for wanting to play high volume short passes to build momentum and dominance.
daredevil As bad as Odegaard is criticized , England would have loved to have someone like him to retain as much of the possession as possible in the last 25 mins of that game
awooga83 he never really beat defenders with pace. He beat them with flair and good footwork and he will does that now.
Gurgen he did use acceleration to shift the ball and give himself half a yard to get space from the defender and get a strike away. He has lost that as many of his shots now get blocked because he doesn't seem to have that ability anymore and he isn't really that great a technical dribbler for me that trickery can compensate.
Saka was a huge miss.
Think England need a complete change in style.
Use guys like Wharton and Scott in the midfield
Be bold with youth - Ngumoha and Dowman should be involved.
And bin off Harry Kane. Big game ghost that guy
Oh ans Lewis Skelly should be in the squad
lorddulaarsenal if we get Rogers England should start going with MLS, Rice, Saka and Rogers all starting with Bellingham as their midfield 5.
JazzG just click bate rubbish as talk sport always is
Tuchel out pep in
😆 This guy don't need no hype man, does it all himself!
He was good in his 1v1 duels but all of Argentina's attacks, good play and eventually goals came down his side...
Argies looking at his bottle thinking thank god this didn't go to penalties 😆
JazzG damn they're really looking at that bottle like we need to reevaluate how we take pens. enzo points to the sky to thank god because he knows he was going for a panenka.
So.... this could be interesting.. Wildfires in Canada could potentially affect the World Cup final. Smoke has reached as far South as NJ (which is where the final is). I have even had haze and a slight smoke smell at my house, which is about an hour and a half south of where the final will be played. Supposed to rain/storm tomorrow which will help clear it out, but if not, it could make it more difficult for the players to breathe properly. Lets see how this plays out.
USArsenal fox creaming themselves. more hydration breaks (or air quality breaks which would actually be legit). the gotham game at citi field had 4 air quality/hydration breaks.
You just know Raya or Zubimendi is going to catch black lung disease now. That's the sort of injury fortune we've had this year.
JazzG very considered view
So what we thinking? Rice full 90+ and Saka 75 mins tomorrow?
If either of them plays we should never send a player to the England team again
