dubai_phil Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 Wilshire & Lampard not in the game yet Sitting very deep SRL Isolated Hoofball no precision Yuk
St Chalet Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 Nooooooooooooooooooooo TV Feed drops out just before KO Panic over it's back! you appear to have a bit of a delay.
SNSUN Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 Come on England!!! RICKIE LAMBERT'S A GOALSCORING MACHINE!!! w00t for England! Do we use sexy nuns?
Colinjb Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 The forward line is being quite fluid on the centre and right again. Theo taking centre when Rickie drops deep and goes out wide. Rickie is missing Danny Welbeck.
SNSUN Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 The forward line is being quite fluid on the centre and right again. Theo taking centre when Rickie drops deep and goes out wide. Rickie is missing Danny Welbeck. Man Utd can have him for £10 million and RVP in part exchange. :-D
Colinjb Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 Theo is incapable of passing a ball. He really hasn't progressed since leaving us.
Special K Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 I think Wilshere and Milner must have missed the "Learn how to pass to a team mate" lessons
Saintru Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 Come on Rickie should have taken that free kick! Come on Townsend give SRL some praise!
farawaysaint Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 Lambert looked more than a little fatigued for the last 15, I hope Roy won't sub him straight off the bat :s
Minty Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 Rickie's done his job well so far - he's wasted a couple but most of the time he's brought others into play and linked play well. All the focus on him being able to cope etc, etc, whilst fair questions, are clearly misdirected... with Walcott and Milner waster possession far too much, Wilshere and Gerrard too inconsistent for players of their supposed class. Ukraine don't look particularly threatening except perhaps on the break down our right - Walker doesn't look all that to me, but we aren't in any real danger. If we get a bit more clinical with our passing and keep playing off Lamberts good forward play, we should win this.
dubai_phil Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 Not Rickie's best 45 mins a few misplaced passes, not challenging for headers a couple of times and looking ponderous on occassion. Having said that considering only him & Gerrard of our front players are the only ones actually in the game. Walker looking unsure, Cole shaky at the start but come into it and looking better and the CB's looking good. What to do about Walcott Milner Lampard & Wilshire though? Surely they trained on that pitch so knew the grass was long, they just don't seem to have any rythm or tempo to their passing & movement. Still IF you want a draw then so far so good
sfc1976 Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 If he played for a top four team it would be 'he just didn't get the service', but as it's us everyone will say he's been dump.
Bewildered Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 Held the ball up well first half, but not had the best support from Walcott and Milner. England are lucky Ukraine aren't playing like the world-beaters people were hyping them up to be, some of the performances have not been good. Cole, Cahill and Lampard have been our best players. Walcott, Wilshere, Milner and Walker have been poor.
dubai_phil Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 Do we need some international nuns? I'm International Here is a new Nun
Saint Garrett Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 Lambert looked more than a little fatigued for the last 15, I hope Roy won't sub him straight off the bat :s Thought the same, probably isn't use to his team giving the ball away this much. Wilshere and Lampard have been non existent so far, and Milner and Walcott have been incredibly poor, Thought Rickie had a good first 20 and last 5. Didn't think he was great in the middle. Walker has been found wanting a bit as well, their no10 looks cracking. Lets hope we can be a bit more composed in the second half, stop forcing it and have some patience. Got the midfield to be dominating this, and we're not at all at the moment.
VectisSaint Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 Walcott, Wilshere, Walker - all the W's are the Worst players on the pitch so far... You forgot Wilner.
Smirking_Saint Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 I disagree. When Rooney is not available Lambert is the perfect replacement. He's not in the same class as Wayne but he disrupts the system less when he steps in for Rooney. I also think suggesting things will turn sour is unfair. Tonight's game could be a very tight one, a game that you often see Rooney becomming frustrated in and having a poor game. Sorry, but did you actually read what I said ? Seeing as I said he was a good option when Rooney, Welbeck and Sturridge isnt available ? And that tonight there is an oppurtunity for it to turn sour for him considering its happened to better players ?
dubai_phil Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 SRL starts 2nd half at Right Back Well someone has to I suppose
SNSUN Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 You forgot Wilner. My apologies. I'll add Wart to that...
Saint_clark Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 Lambert did nothing wrong there. F*ck off Townsend.
dubai_phil Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 we do look a very average side. tbf we have looked better since SRL injected some passion but Walcott's passing is woeful
Cascadia Saint Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 He's so central, not getting the ball at all at the moment. He's so much better when he's able to roam a little in the final third.
Colinjb Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 Rickie won't be subbed. No other options. He'll be shattered for Sunday.
Colinjb Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 Young coming on Has to be a better option then Theo right now.
Cascadia Saint Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 tbf we have looked better since SRL injected some passion but Walcott's passing is woeful Everyone's passing is pretty ****e at the moment. Theo has pace and is getting past people at least...
Colinjb Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 Rickie is beginning to look a bit crude. His sharpness is going.
dubai_phil Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 Rickie is beginning to look a bit crude. His sharpness is going. FFS this forum. always with the Billy Sharp............... SRL has actually looked a lot like Rooney in this game Isolated & frustrated
Colinjb Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 FFS this forum. always with the Billy Sharp............... SRL has actually looked a lot like Rooney in this game Isolated & frustrated I just think he is looking a little tired. Yes, he is isolated, but everything stuck to him in the first half. It isn't now.
trousers Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 England defenders running away from the ball again
Cascadia Saint Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 FFS this forum. always with the Billy Sharp............... SRL has actually looked a lot like Rooney in this game Isolated & frustrated Definitely.
Colinjb Posted 10 September, 2013 Posted 10 September, 2013 Big, big chance to Ukraine, could have been a penalty. Free kick instead. Jesus that wasn't far away.
