I am disappointed by them , noit how they played ( which I didn´t see) , but because of their spinelessness against a corrupt system. Tbf the Germans have a bit of history ......... As do us British The problem with all this criticism is that the European countries are judging them by our own current standards wilfully forgetting that you don't have to go back too many decades to find homosexuality was illegal, religion had a too dominant impact on lives, that migrants came in to do the shitty jobs. Jeez we had a report only yesterday that the fire service is still racist and misogynistic. These countries are simply at a different stage of their existence. Perhaps the religious dominance in these countries will never loosen. Perhaps they look at the West and see a society that is liberal and now as arguments about whether 12 year old lads can have gender transition treatment and think fuck having that shit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrolMong Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 If he’s playing two sitting midfield players and telling the full backs to play as wingers and give total freedom to the front four, no issues.

KrolMong Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 Surprised by Henderson AND Walker. That means there is zero attacking threat down the right. But it does mean that Rashford can play right up the pitch. The rest is as expected. What’s clear is that he doesn’t trust Grealish and Foden in the same team even in a front 3. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beaconowl Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 Yeah, I have mixed feelings. I want to see your pace and urgency. Walker over Trippier is probably the one question mark I have.

I’m all for people being included in commentary/punditry if they use actual words. Not making it up as they go along I read the 'Back Story' of that Nadia Nadim that was on the ITV 'bench' earlier. As well as having a fine football career - over 100 Danish caps and 38 goals - she not only recently qualified as a doctor but apparently speaks 11 (eleven!) languages. A bit of a contrast! It's amazing how random life can be. The family apparently fled Afghanistan when she was 8 after the Taliban killed her father. They paid to come here, where they had family: they got dumped in Denmark instead, for unknown reasons. There just happened to be a girls and boys football training club set-up right next to the fence of their Danish refugee camp where she saw football being played for the first time. She started to kick a ball about with her sisters. After a long professional top level football career she's now a U.N. 'Ambassador', helping inspire kids in refugee camps around the world to aspire to learn and better themselves. Quite an example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
