England - Euro 2020 qualis and Nations League

Spain lead England's group with 2 wins from 2, following up their 2-1 win at Wembley by putting six past England's WC semi-final opponents Croatia.



The two losers play each other on Friday 12 Oct, and Southgate, slightly forced by injuries, has named an interesting squad for that game and the return leg against Spain:

Notable inclusions Mount, Maddison and Sancho all in the squad for the first time. Sancho, 18, is currently playing for Borussia Dortmund, and has more assists (5) than any other player in Europe's top five leagues, despite mostly playing as a sub.

 

The title was already too bastard long!

 

I agree with ed, its a horri show to read

 

Why the fuck is the Croatia match on Sky?!

I mean, I'm no fan of ITV's coverage, but at least it's free

 

Apparently Sky have the rights to the Nations League

 

Anyone still watching?

 

Sterling did what???

 

Ha i’d forgotten about this. Just listening now. England two nil up Already.

 

0-3

a shambles

 

Oh they actually are. I thought you were taking the piss!

 

Why hasn't Sterling scored a hat-trick yet? Get him off.

 

It's

Coming

Home

 

It’s coming home !

 

I like how that Spain coach was using a notepad and pen to describe Aspas' corner against Chelsea there.

 

In a little Portuguese bar , the Portuguese don't have much time for the Spanish team and think it's hilarious that they are three nil down .

 

This is just silly now.

 

The joy of leading 1-3 has made up for my confusion of the Nations leauge

 

Just give us the fucking World Cup back already

 

Having just watched the highlights, not at all surprised we were so under pressure in the second half. We're still not truly at Spain's level, but it's still nice to get that win

 

No one expects the Spanish out of position.

 

Great to have more important international football this weekend

 

Some wanky veterans match against the US and ANOTHER match against Croatia, neither of which are on terrestrial TV anyway. Yawn.

 

Packed stadium supporting the lads

A goal at least.

 

Totally forgot this was on

 

So did most the fans going to see the match it seems

 

Brilliant goal from Lingard.

 

65,000 for an England friendly on a Thursday night, to be fair that's not bad at all.

Rooney didn't look out of place, shame he didn't get a goal.

More excited about Sancho and Wilson slotting in nicely tho, and Delph looks the business in that midfield.
