World Cup 2026

The English midfield is one of the most insane things I've seen, probably enough to make up for the attack tonight.

Mourinho after seeing that midfield three:

Don't think it has enough creativity to make up for England's weaknesses in other areas of the pitch.

Konsa and Stones is a poor partnership. Will get exposed later in the tournament.

Saka suffered the worst injury possible for a footballer after an ACL, broken leg and ruptured achilles. A long and deep tear of the biceps femoris in the right hamstring (there's a picture of the scar). It's the type of injury where a full recovery is not particularly common because your body may not feel like repairing all the fast twitch type IIx fibres.

He also has persistent achilles issues. I've said during the season a few times, but the club needs to have an eye on a potential Saka replacement.

Dom Doesn't sound good at all 😔 we did give him a bumper new deal so we must be hopeful it'll clear up.

Dodgy start from England here gosh.

Gazza M

Dom sakas condition should be treated as a crisis. he looked like a shell in the CL final. at minimum it looks like he's going to be on restricted minutes for the foreseeable future, and noni was just a bad choice to be getting so much playing time. were going to need a quality winger that can play both flanks

USArsenal

What in the actual fuck is that England lineup?

USArsenal What in the actual fuck is that England lineup?

They're resting Saka. Other than that, the only controversial decision I can see is leaving Guehi on the bench. I don't really see anything all that crazy here.

Dom
saka is clearly not starting for health reasons, but the rest are their best players.

RowJimmy

Barcelona for example clearly agrees with Tuchel about the relative merits of Gordon and Rashford.

Mirth

Credit to Tuchel for resting Saka - was worried he’d run him down

awooga83

Klaus he shouldn't be playing the whole team it's compromised trying to play for him.

Klaus

awooga83 He probably shouldn't but he didn't pick himself. There are worse forwards at this tournament who have performed better because there's a clear idea about how to use them. Slot would've been proud of Martinez today: How do you put Bernardo on the wing with Ronaldo up front?

IBL

Haha Noni wins a penalty

IBL

Kane misses the penalty, lucky to get a retake

Now scores, harsh.
Arsenal boys started well

awooga83

Klaus well Martinez is the coward totally damaging the team for one players ego.

Mirth

Klaus He probably shouldn't but he didn't pick himself

Tbh

He probably did

USArsenal

Buries the re-take... Thats what happens when you put your foot through the ball instead of the stuttering bullshit.

Meatwad

USArsenal
aka the "I'm scared penalty." quit the coward shit and smash it.

Panda

That was jokes 🤣🤣 ref gave him the re-take because he was crying about missing it.

Dom

I see my PTSD hasn’t cleared. Felt a tad sick seeing a penalty being taken.

awooga83

Mirth especially after Messi performance he'd be straight in to the manager

awooga83

Meatwad it's odd I've never seen Kane take that type because he's very good at the just smashing it.
