Forgot about the red card as well. There was another 3 goals for us there if the officials didn't go soft.

games like this shouldn’t of Jimmy greaves had played them he’d have scored 100 plus - it’s pathetic really
He scored 3 or 4 against equally poor opponents on a few occasions.
He really didn’t - World Cup groups then generally had one at best weak team in it - there are now far more games and far more against utter dross like them - sorry that’s bollocks
Teams of note Kane has only scored against France, Germany and Denmark.3 and 4 against Northern Ireland, 4 against Norway, 3 against Peru, 3 against Scotland. He had an exceptional record but to say he didn’t play against very easy teams is not right. Either way both strikers can’t be criticised for scoring regardless of who it’s against. Plenty of the top forwards now and in the past have “stat padded” against poorer opponents.
Croatia, Colombia, Poland and Ukraine too. Also don’t forget his best performance in an England shirt was in Seville when he didn’t score. Despite his goal scoring record his hold up and link up play is the best part of his game.Teams of note Kane has only scored against France, Germany and Denmark.
In the stadium it was rubbish. Same as last time there. Was good in the bars in Rimini.What was the atmosphere like out there CJ?
From what I could see/clips on social media etc seemed a bit flat both before and during the game.
Agree with that. When we play with two holding, more often than not when the ball gets cleared out of the opponent’s box one of them picks it up and we can build again. When we have only one there it becomes more difficult for that to happen.Southgate is going to run with 3-4-3 for 2022 and frankly, I like it. It gives us a lot of balance and with the depth in wing backs we have, it can be a good attacking tool for us.
We picked the ‘perfect’ game for Hungary with plenty of attacking talent and being at the game, it was a shame it didn’t work. We looked far more positive and attacking against Albania with what looked to be a more cautious approach from Southgate.
Semi-finals minimum expectation for the World Cup. Like Rot Keane said, we need to believe we can win it because we actually have the quality to go all the way.
Portugal and Italy have missed out on automatic qualification. As much as I rated Mancini at the Euros, the wheels appear to have fallen off Italy at this moment.
