    England v Brazil match thread 23rd March 2024

    I didn't mind us losing. Just wanted to see a bit of hope and what could work and have the feeling we are not far off. That was all just a bit clueless and uninspiring. Created so very few clear chances and just seemed to pass it back and forth around the midfield and then lose possession...

    I know. I would definitely like to see what Toney can do though. Give him the chance Watkins is a good goalscorer, but he seems a little short of international standard I think. Don't know about Toney. Let's at least see if he can grab his chance Maguire is definitely on the wane and the way...

    Oh, I wonder if he is as good as Paul Cook.🤔

    As you say, one game at a time, see where we are. I just know the end of the season, it's hard to find any easy games. Unless anyone is playing Rotherham of course.

    Okay. You start, Wingy, I'm still a little bit sleepy. 👍

    Sometimes it's tougher playing teams down the bottom and Norwich might find Birmingham, on the last day, a very tough ask. Hopefully for us, QPR are safe by then

    Exactly this. Doesn't matter so much if we lose. It's the time to try things, play with a bit a freedom and flair. As others have said, this was just stodgy and dull.

    Yup. We have all these attacking, flair players and then play too conservatively.

    England v Brazil match thread 23rd March 2024

    We do have some very good players, so it's so frustrating. Bellingham, Rice, Foden, Stones, Kane, Grealish, Walker, all good enough. I think Palmer would do well too. We have promising players, but Southgate buggers it all up by playing the likes of the rather average Gallagher. He just...

    Very poor that wasn't it. Can't persist with Gallagher and I don't think Watkins looks enough like he's ready for international football. Should have given Toney a go. All we have learned tonight is what doesn't work.

    What have we learned tonight other than the number of players that are NOT good enough? Not even much hint of promise is there. Maybe Mainoo.and Gordon. That's it.

    Why not Toney for Watkins? Watkins has been missing in action for pretty much the entire game.

    He does have some odd favourites at times doesn't he. Mason Mount, anyone?

    Geez! Chilwell has been awful.

    Chilwell has been very poor so far.

    England very bitty so far. Rather disjointed, but starting to command a bit more now.
