chara Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 Interesting that Cole took the first penalty....never in doubt of course but such an important one...just wondered if he was meant to be a Gareth "sacrifice" ?...Master stroke if it worked or finger at media if it didn't ?....probably just a cynical OG pov. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chara Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 Maybe just OG grumpiness but am I the only one getting to dislike Bellingham? Not so much his football..although a bit disappointed so far, but his "attitude" and almost Ronaldo style developing ego? Someone needs to whisper in his ear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Kelly Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 Sorry to see Turkey exit of all the teams in the latter stages they were the most deserving to go through. A brave side who defended valiantly and attacked with aplomb. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonb Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 I think England prefer to face the Netherlands rather than Turkey, they know a lot of the Dutch players. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More the case of him getting caught up in the usual OTT uk media coverage of him. However like day and night the uk press they are building him up to shoot him down If Gareth has the gonads to drop the donkey Kane and a couple of others in favour of the team that finished the game last night, we might well see a more positive England to bow the Dutch out of the water 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sciatika Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 For the Dutch, I would stick with three at the back and bench Kane in favour of Toney. ------------------- Pickford ----------Konsa----Stones----Guehi Saka------------Rice-----Mainoo-------Shaw --------Bellingham --------------Foden ----------------------Toney I would look to bring in energy (Palmer, Eze, Gallagher) at 60' not 75' and have Kane and Watkins on the bench if Toney is struggling. Southgate will probably revert to 4-2-3-1 with TTA in midfield, and Trippier on the left. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
