OVER THE HILL Posted 17 November, 2015 Author Posted 17 November, 2015 I'm looking forward to Rooney trying to sing " La Marseillaise".
OVER THE HILL Posted 17 November, 2015 Author Posted 17 November, 2015 Pelle in the team as Italy host Romania in Bologna
doddisalegend Posted 17 November, 2015 Posted 17 November, 2015 Germany Holland cancelled Being totally selfish but good. Keeps Clasie and VVD away from injury..
whelk Posted 17 November, 2015 Posted 17 November, 2015 Explosives found in an ambulance near to the stadium in Hannover according to @Kreiszeitung
VectisSaint Posted 17 November, 2015 Posted 17 November, 2015 Being totally selfish but good. Keeps Clasie and VVD away from injury.. Virgil had already withdrawn
Sour Mash Posted 17 November, 2015 Posted 17 November, 2015 Being totally selfish but good. Keeps Clasie and VVD away from injury.. Van Dijk pulled out of their squad days ago after getting a knock.
Saint-scooby Posted 17 November, 2015 Posted 17 November, 2015 VVD is injured ..................hopefully a slight knock
Batman Posted 17 November, 2015 Posted 17 November, 2015 does anyone else think that it is going a tad OTT with wrapping this whole thing around football at the mo? (france etc)
Manuel Posted 17 November, 2015 Posted 17 November, 2015 I think it's a good opportunity to show some camaraderie with France after what happened.
Batman Posted 17 November, 2015 Posted 17 November, 2015 Alli scores a beauty. He has been very good. as has rooney and clyne
Saint Charlie Posted 17 November, 2015 Posted 17 November, 2015 (edited) Dele Alli showing everything Saints fans hope JWP could be. Most of the best players virtually bypass the U21s. Absolute bargain at £6m. Great deal by Mitchell/Spurs. Edited 17 November, 2015 by Saint Charlie
Lets B Avenue Posted 17 November, 2015 Posted 17 November, 2015 Cape Verdi 2 Kenya 0. Vic ain't going to the World Cup. Senegal 3 Madagascar 0. Sadio booked again, but didn't score.
Chalkboy Posted 17 November, 2015 Posted 17 November, 2015 Be interesting to see what Hodgson does once Henderson and Milner are back in action.
Saint Charlie Posted 17 November, 2015 Posted 17 November, 2015 2-0 Rooney. Setup by more Alli aggression to win a ball lots would just have pressed and stood off. Really hope JWP is watching and learning how you match technique with the desire to influence a game. Clear to see how Spurs feel Alli fits a pressing game.
buctootim Posted 17 November, 2015 Posted 17 November, 2015 (edited) Cape Verdi 2 Kenya 0. Vic ain't going to the World Cup. Not the best preparation https://citizentv.co.ke/sports/panic-as-harambee-stars-trip-to-cape-verde-is-delayed-by-over-8-hours-106372/ "The country’s football fraternity was thrown into panic on Monday after national team Harambee Stars delayed to take off for Cape Verde by over 8 hours. The team was first unwilling to depart for their return fixture against Cape Verde over unpaid allowances, with some of the international players claiming a refund of the air tickets they purchased to honour the first leg encounter in Nairobi. After the issue was resolved, the players travelled to Wilson Airport ready to depart for Cape Verde but the trip was delayed after the owner of the airplane demanded payment before the trip. The turn of events left the team stranded at the airport, with many concerned over whether they will get to Cape Verde and rest ahead of the kickoff slated for 4pm. The incident had infuriated Kenyans with most football fans calling for the arrest of FKF President Sam Nyamweya over the disorganisation. Through the hashtag #ArrestNyamweya, Kenyans expressed their displeasure with the FKF boss and his management team for failing to settle the players’ arrears. The Kenyan team finally managed to travel, minutes past 7:30pm, following intervention by the government. Reports indicate that Sports Cabinet Secretary Hassan Wario arrived at the airport and facilitated travel arrangements for the team saying he had learned of the situation through the media and social media."

Colinjb Posted 17 November, 2015 Posted 17 November, 2015 We've played alright, but not sure what can be read into a 2-0 lead over France right now in all honesty.
Chalkboy Posted 17 November, 2015 Posted 17 November, 2015 We've played alright, but not sure what can be read into a 2-0 lead over France right now in all honesty. Agree. They can't have had the best preparation the last few days. England for once do look a lot more balanced. I'd rather Dier and Alli than Milner and Henderson any day. Breaking news....Man U in shock £40 million swoop for Alli...; )
OVER THE HILL Posted 17 November, 2015 Author Posted 17 November, 2015 Judas on in place of Sterling.
mattsbignose Posted 17 November, 2015 Posted 17 November, 2015 Will be fun to see more Man Utd biased papers releasing news about them being linked to Harry Kane in the next few weeks. Can't help but think that Morgan looks miles off the pace; but as had been said previously, this really isn't the game to judge anyone. Already getting bored of Alli as the new England messiah! I know he played down the road but Diarra still looks like he could do a job if anyone needs an experienced head. Ryan on for Kane, shame they haven't put him up front for a bit of a laugh.
S-Clarke Posted 17 November, 2015 Posted 17 November, 2015 It's really impossible to judge anything on this game, although it won't stop the media going OTT. IMO the french players didn't want to play this game, their demeanor suggests that their minds are elsewhere (as expected).
Jonnyboy Posted 17 November, 2015 Posted 17 November, 2015 Alli scores a beauty. He has been very good. as has rooney and clyne Deflected.
Saint Charlie Posted 17 November, 2015 Posted 17 November, 2015 Deflected. Brushed a shoulder but easily going in anyway.
Jonnyboy Posted 17 November, 2015 Posted 17 November, 2015 Brushed a shoulder but easily going in anyway. Maybe. Maybe not.
Appy Posted 17 November, 2015 Posted 17 November, 2015 does anyone else think that it is going a tad OTT with wrapping this whole thing around football at the mo? (france etc) Not really, you're being too cynical.
doddisalegend Posted 18 November, 2015 Posted 18 November, 2015 So now all these crappy internationals are over now did Saints get away injury free? I know about VVD (I watched the game) but he only came off as a precaution against wales and should be fine. Did the rest of the squad making it through unscathed?
redkeith Posted 18 November, 2015 Posted 18 November, 2015 I watched a bit of the match on French TV. When Lallana came on, they introduced him as having come up from the 3rd Division at Southampton with Schneiderlin. Very educational for the French. I imagine the ITV commentary at the same point went "Lallana .. Liverpool ..Klop.. Rooney .. big club big club ..."

Getting annoyed about the things the media say in your own head marks a pretty spectacular new low for this forum.
redkeith Posted 18 November, 2015 Posted 18 November, 2015 Sorry to have caused such offence, but I thought others who don't live in France might be interested to know that the clubs profile is rising over here. As to the rest of my post. maybe Clive Tyldesly has cleaned up his act, but I doubt it. It doesn't make me angry, just makes me not watch ITV Sports.

I imagine the ITV commentary at the same point went "Lallana .. Liverpool ..Klop.. Rooney .. big club big club ..." But it still smacks of self-absorption - the reference point is ultimately Schneiderlin, not Southampton. Now imagine if Schneiderlin had joined Liverpool, do you think the narrative would have been anything other than Lallana "Schneiderlin's current team-mate at Liverpool"? The French media couldn't give a toss about Southampton.

The9 Posted 18 November, 2015 Posted 18 November, 2015 does anyone else think that it is going a tad OTT with wrapping this whole thing around football at the mo? (france etc) Nope. It's clearly a massive story about the terrorists shifting their focus to events, which is likely to have an impact on how people live their everyday lives, so it's getting a lot of coverage.
david in sweden Posted 18 November, 2015 Posted 18 November, 2015 I'm looking forward to Rooney trying to sing " La Marseillaise". Mmmm..a bit problematic .. How was he with God Save the Queen?
david in sweden Posted 19 November, 2015 Posted 19 November, 2015 Not Steven Davis scoring AGAIN! Saw that SD scored the only goal in the friendly v.Latvia. He must have taken notice of his critics on this site who said that he couldn't score goals.......
