4 - 0 Spain

Greatest beginning of a thread ever

3-1 Spain

 

[DarkSithLord]

Dour 1-0 defeat for England.

 

[Stevencc]

If we play as well as we did against Scotland then we could be in for a thrashing.

At least it's only a friendly!

 

[Ciderhead]

What is the point of this? How many times have we played them in friendlies over the last few years?

It'll be a dull game, we'll lose narrowly and gain absolutely nothing from the experience

 

[merseyboyred]

Only here for Iago Aspas

 

[Reaper]

We seem to play better against good teams in friendlies for some reason so i wouldn't be surprised if we won. Would like us to try with 3 centre backs with Rose and Walker playing wing back i think that would work really well.

Hart
Stones, Dier, Keane
Walker, Lallana, Henderson, Wilshire, Rose
Rashford, Sturridge

 

[JimJams]

I'm not Keane on Stones in a back 3, it looks absolutely Dier.

 

[mistermagic]

The thread title is the wrong way round.

 

[claret50]

We're playing well so far.

 

[Liam_SWFC]

Good start England, promising. This Spain team isn't what it used to be so don't see why we can't win this.

 

[SALTIRE]

Ffs don't you be injured for Saturday Lallana!

 

[silkyman]

Not vastly inspiring...

 

[G-Dragon]

Liverpool player carrying England AGAIN!

 

[mistermagic]

Lots of replies in this thread...

 

[SALTIRE]

Liverpool making the goal again.

 

[Pagnell]

Does that mean the Vardy wankfest can start again?

 

[JimJams]

Does that mean the Vardy wankfest can start again?

Yes, yes it does.
Though 'wankfest' is a bit much ain't it? He's constantly labelled as shite by fans of other clubs.

 

[JimJams]

Liverpool player carrying England AGAIN!

Anyone can score a penalty. It's all about winning the penalty in the first place, and then scoring bullet headers.

You're all very welcome.

 

[Super_horns]

Let's hope Vardy isn't in such form on Sat!!

Playing well - trouble is we usually do in friendlies.

 

[Pagnell]

It was tongue in cheek chimp. Partly to get that kind of reaction from you.

 

[JimJams]

Let's hope Vardy isn't in such form on Sat!!

Vardys form is irrelevant as the rest of the side is playing shite.

 

[JimJams]

Heaton with a really Billy big bollocks swagger there after catching a simple ball.

 

[SALTIRE]

The downfall of Spain is complete. Iago Aspas is on gentlemen.

 

[Pagnell]

It's quite clear that Spain give a whole lot less of a fuck about this game than England do.

And Reina is shit these days it would appear. Shame, he was one of the best keepers in the world about 8-9 years ago, and keepers normally get better with age.

 

[JimJams]

He'd just made a mess of a few decent counter opportunities but Lingard did well on that last one, just a shame he couldn't find Vardy in the box.
I'd have thought he'd have dropped deeper for Walcott to be more advanced.

Reina is far from shit these days, he's quality for Napoli. TBH based on his Napoli performances he'd walk straight back into your side. Ahead of Minger anyway, too early to tell with Karius.

Don't forget he has Nacho and Inigo Martinez in front of him, two inexperienced players.

 

[Pagnell]

A keeper getting in ahead of Midnolet means the square root of jack shit in terms of their quality.

 

[JimJams]

Ok, better than Karius on his showing for you so far then.

 

[Pagnell]

Both our keepers are mediocre at best so I could believe it.
