Ref bottled sending Bellingham off. Clear cut yellow card.
England Squad + Match Discussion (The Tuchel Era) | Jordan Henderson, Dan Burn, Kyle Walker all called up
- Thread starter SilentWitness
- Start date
Would have liked to see Nwaneri is this squad get 25/30 minutes here from the RW. Lacking options there now.
Can’t see Tuchel lasting long at this rate.
He does not have a footballing brain.
Reece James is delightful to watch. If he can stay fit I really like the idea of him and MLS in the full-back positions, two players who are so tidy and good at protecting the ball but with the progressive passing to match would add a nice element of control.
I don’t understand why we’ve moved Rashford to the right. Yes his end product wasn’t always perfect in the first half but he was causing all sorts of problems for Latvia. Now we are creating nothing on the left at all and can’t get Rashford consistently involved either.
Let's see if Foden can make an impact centrally
That’s a nice goal.
Kane makes it 2-0.
He's done it again that Harry Kane.
He's done it again!
Watching James fills me with both joy and sadness. In 2022 there isn’t a single RB in the world I would have taken over him. Colossal defensively and extremely decisive in attack. He was the perfect fullback, whether you wanted a wing back or a more traditional RB. These days I just watch him, and I’m happy that he’s healthy again, but I just always think what could have been.
He'll end on about 200 goals for England.
It's going to be interesting to see how Tuchel permutates between Saka, Palmer, Foden, Bellingham, and Rashford for the three slots behind Kane.
The caf and shitting on United players at any and every opportunity.
Rashford has had a few of those. Pass clearly not on but he plays it an inevitably gives it away.
Pleased for Eze.
Now Eze scores.
That was good from Eze. Hope to see Gibbs-White come on to get some minutes.
Hit the defender.
That's really good from Eze.
Eze doing in about 5 minutes what Rashford has been trying to do for nearly 2 full games.
I have no issue with James coming off now.
Too many greedy bastards in this England team.
Played really well.
Three punchable faces coming on at once.
Do we need to see Walker and Hendo now? 
3-0 up, can we not have a look at MGW instead?
3-0 up, can we not have a look at MGW instead?James moved into defensive mid.
Wow, Jordan Henderson coming on
One for the future.
Does he manage 90 minutes for you these days or is this new territory at this point?
Konsa has had a couple of good chances tonight
He's played 90 once or twice but he's certainly being eased back in. Obvs Premier League games are a bit more of a challenge than Latvia.
A new era. Thomas Tuchel's toddlers.
It's been a pretty unremarkable start.
Leave Rashford alone!!!
James and probably Rogers the standouts from that I think for me. Rice, Konsa, MLS, Kane all decent again and nice impact from the bench for Eze.
These qualifiers are pointless just games for the sake of games, basically no jeopardy for England in this group
They wouldn't be at the world cup on merit then
I think Saka and Bellingham are pretty nailed on and don’t see how Palmer or Foden can start since neither play off the left. I would have Palmer as the first sub to make an impact on the game.
LW could be anyone from Eze, Rashford, Gordon, Rogers etc
