The Official 'I don't really watch England any more, but I'm kind of, sort of, maybe watching/following England v Slovenia but only ironically/so I can moan about how bad we are/because I'm a glutton for punishment Match day Thread.

[Meh]

You dont need 2 defensive midfielders for sure but we have an alarming lack of midfielders in this country.

Have you seen our defence though?!

Yep. I had no intention of drinking this evening. But the game has just made me do it. Sad times. 

I'd buy a slab of Thatchers just to throw all 24 of them at Jordan Henderson tbh.

And if one should ricochet off his overpaid fivehead and hit Sterling in the niagra's, that would be excellent.

And Eric Dier looks like Oddbod from Carry On Screaming.

[Maesknoll Red]

I just did the washing up, it was infinitely more interesting than watching this, had the radio on in the kitchen and at least the guys on R5 are telling it as it is.....

[RedRock]

Nothing, bar nothing illustrates how crap we are than having a free kick in the oppositions half passing it backwards then ping ponging between the midfield and defenders over the half way line, first sign of pressure.. we lose it and opposition attacks. 

Hopeless, just hopeless. 

Southgate and your FA coaching manuals just F off will you. 

[Reigate Red]

Believe it or not I think we may be getting worse as the game goes on

[Red Exile]

Good grief this is dull! 

[Rob k]

I honestly believe City would do better than this 

[BanburyRed]

It's embarrassing, it really is......i bet the crowd wishes the tube strike was on.

[RumRed]

Wtf was that?

[RedM]

I'm with @Fordy62, no we might not beat this England team but we'd put up a better fight and give it a bloody good go. Bored, bored, bored. 

[old_eastender]

Lets face it this England display would not be good enough to beat half the teams in the Championship, let alone the PL... awful.

[The Bard]

Just taken a little bit of the 11/1 about Slovenia. You know it makes sense 

[Midlands Robin]

Gave up at half time and the kids now have Peppa Pig on. Far more entertaining.

[CiderHider]

Bobby Reid when??

[Reigate Red]

OK let's put some pressure on Slovenia... your kit is shit, your kit is shit etc.

[Super]

Put it in the net Rashford Ffs.

[exAtyeoMax]

I've always found a really bizzare correlation between how City play and how England seem to play, at different periods of time. 

The England team always seem to have the same, frustrating style, factors & traits that we've had. 

Let's hope the trend continues and it's time for both to shine, in a prolonged period of global dominance..! 

Looks like it's just City that have improved then..! 

[CiderHider]

WE are the most entertaining side in the UK, official!

DEAL WITH IT HATERS! 

 

Flint, Bryan, Reid, Tammy. Yes maybe more City players, they should be included in the WC squad, becuase on form they are better than this shower of shit on display, is this the state of top flight players these days? Come down to the championship Southgate and see how men play the game

Too much sh1t put on it, that's definitely the problem.

[cityexile]

Starting to play a bit more crisply and with some pace now.

[CiderHider]

Rashford just doesn't have the skill, overhyped, like Jessie, Id play Bobby over the paid of them, have they a season of competitive football between them?

the state of international football.

Well walker's on the pitch .......sorry

[exAtyeoMax]

any bcfc flags? or have we more sense…?

[slartibartfast]

It tells you something about the standing of England when half the squad are not even first choice for their clubs !

[CiderHider]

Cant even thump a side that is literally Wycombe, Germany would humiliate us. 

 

Genuinely think its best we dont even qualify, for a variety of reason.
