East Kent Saint

Historical accuracy

There is the issue of a player in a team that plays to his strengths getting transferred on the basis of his performance in that team . In his new team and system they play it appears he couldn’t hit a barn door with a banjo !

A popular western misconception that Jesus and his family were white anglo saxon heritage .

Oh can ‘t seem to get it to do a 180 !

As predicted !

Ref should have yellow carded him twice for his un sporting behaviour 😋

Psyched out

Call it a dead heat , gold medal each …..

What no right back ?

Could rename it the ‘Turkish Delight’ section .

I know he did his achillies tendon , not quite so nippy after that injury.

Saints had to off load him on a free transfer , now in 2 to 4 M euro range ! I don't think he's going anywhere soon . https://www.footballtransfers.com/en/players/sofiane-boufal

Rated a 5 , one good run and pass for a chance but rest of final balls no good says paper re last nights match .

The successful teams in this WC seem to have players who are prepared to be physical as well as skillful . Perhaps spme of the England players are a bit lightweight by comparison . A lot seems to depend on the Ref , last night he wasn't dishing out yellow cards , some tackles on replay looked bad and intended to make contact as well . In the prem I would expect more cards to be given for those tackles. Morocco didn't cave last night as I expected and kept going to the end , pretty impressive . Final will be interesting .

The world cup was and snooker 😄

I always wince when they do the knee slide celebration ! I took 6 months recovery from what was minor damage playing at school , they said it was housemaids knee ! No op just physio , probably moved on a bit since then with treatment.

So 45 +10 mins of Argie time wasting , falling over , shouting at the ref and trying to wind up Croatia into retaliation 😐

B’mouth takeover complete , new guy owns ice hockey club as well , we know all about that transfer of skills 😄

I think the chance of winning would be the same ! At least the sense of entitlement has faded even Brazil have to face reality and Germany who failed to even qualify. FIFA still following the money so England will have no influence in the future as we slip into G20 rather than G7.

Poch waiting for Chelsea job say his mates .

England had 8 shots on target from 16 attempts and France 5 from 8 . France’s first was a result of England not being cautious , having too many men too far forward when the counter came . Their second was headed at close quarters onto Maguire’s shoulder which put it out of reach for Pickford .

But Messi has ‘missed’ several penalties recently , Kane has missed the odd one in the prem as well , it’s what happens .

This has been the norm for most teams in this WC ,

The teams that win these games are prepared to put the boot in , France broke up our attacks early with fouls , Argentina do it as part of their game plan . Tonight France got away with it too often compared to fouls given against England .
