Hmm. Seems an odd choice of words from the FA, and curious timing. Loads of other bench options though.

Second time in four games a player has mysteriously become unavailable just before a game

That Poland penalty was a bit of a farce. If the striker pisses around during the run up the keeper should be able to move off their line.

In fact they should be allowed to run off the line and deck the striker for being a twat.

I know it is the done thing to say how dangerous and good Senegal are, but we really should be beating these within 90 mins

Yeah, but they’re used to winning knockout games, won the Alcon, Carney told us 8 times in about 3 minutes. They find a way to win (unless they lose)

The Senegal team appears to lack diversity. I hope there are campaigns going on there to encourage white players more.

Unless he's coming back to UK, I can't see what family situation he can deal with from over there? Odd.

Looking forward to Mbappe against Maguire. 

Followed by someone digging out some posts on here from about 2015  that Stephens was a better than Maguire and should have been selected /would have handled Mbappe better...

No complaints with the line up from me.

Yep. Right calls from me. Good bench options, although I'm not sure what Wilson brings.

I remember a post on another forum that said Stephens was the new Bobby Moore 🤣🤣🤣

I thought Wilson did ok when he came on the other night. 
 

Unless the keeper chucks one in the net, we’ll beat this lot.

Wasn't it his 'Beckenbauresque' style of bringing the ball out of defence that caught the eye (and imagination it seems) on here ?

I'd rather see Rashford down the middle personally. 

Hope you're right. I think it'll be a struggle, but we'll scrape past them.

He had a purple patch in about 2016 when I thought he'd go on and be decent. But he became shit instead.

what’s worse, just seen the pompey manager was interviewed during the game on sky today. 

Is this the future? 🤦‍♂️

 

 

Heard them announce Sam Vokes coming on, but couldn't hear the  10,000 travelling army giving him abuse. 

Perhaps TCWAB and mates couldn't get a signal or they need to ad/ update Vokes page on  Scummerpedia

I was about to complain to OFCOM when Lee Dixon used some bigoted stereotypes and called the Senegalese players fast and strong but thankfully his woke training kicked in and he remembered to add “and intelligent”

I reckon we should actually try crossing it to one of our players every now and then #callmeoldfashioned

3 feet in front of them is a ‘great ball’ apparently. Wrighty would have put us 1-0 up.
