pride of the west Posted May 20, 2017 Report Share Posted May 20, 2017 Anyone know why Taylor Moore didn't get a call up? I see that rovers loan player who was injured most the season is playing instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRock Posted May 20, 2017 Report Share Posted May 20, 2017 Watched the entire second half and not one foul awarded so far. Amazing. Technically, second best but somehow winning things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robin_unreliant Posted May 20, 2017 Report Share Posted May 20, 2017 I'm in favour of video replays to help refs but that did take way too long. Would have to speed it up if you had 20k fans getting impatient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume as it's available it would be daft for him not to go and view it himself as he's ultimately in charge (Rather than pass the buck to 4th official) Argies very impressive but we have worked hard and had some bright moments and most importantly we are THREE up on one of Tournament favs First victory in a U20 World Cup for twenty years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North London Red Posted May 20, 2017 Report Share Posted May 20, 2017 2 hours ago, BobBobSuperBob said: First victory in a U20 World Cup for twenty years For most of the last 20 years we've sent teams to the under 20 World Cup without the FA enforcing a mandatory player release rule, meaning we've sent a severely depleted squad in several instances. I saw the England under 20s in Colombia in 2011 (can highly recommend it as a place by the way - Medellin and Cartagena were great cities) and there were something like 40 eligible players who might have made the squad who weren't released by their clubs. As I understood it at the time, the FA could have enforced a mandatory player release clause, but opted not to. The squad this year looks a little stronger and includes a few players who've been tipped for full England caps in the future (e.g. Dominic Solanke, whose club progress appears to have stalled due to his contract situation at Chelsea, but who I believe will be on the move this summer).

I Am A Cider Drinker Posted May 26, 2017 Report Share Posted May 26, 2017 Anyone watching? Can certainly see why Tammy is not in this squad, he's a level above.

BobBobSuperBob Posted May 26, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2017 Ta for the heads up Eurosport had prog listed as 12.45 I see South Korea won both their opening games including against the Argies who were a far better side than us although the result didn't reflect that looks like we have qualified from group and a win today & we would win the group Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
