He has and I think the new guy has been critical of Cash for not speaking Polish

Can't find anything on that

thats a weird one, isnt the guy he is competing with, playing at championship equivalent level or something?

Looks like they played three at the back the other day with Frankowski of RC Lens at right wing-back.

Cash is a right back for a current top 4 side. We'd get 25 mil no problem.

He's rotated with Konsa there, often not starting the bigger games when everyone's available, and he's not first choice for Poland either.

I'd say we'd get £20m at the most for Cash.

The Atletico links were how long ago now? He's been OK lately but I'd say his rep generally has gone down since then. He's even lost his starting spot for Poland.

5 wins in 25 against top 10 opposition.

A top 10 prem team has that record in a season and their manager is sacked.

Is this record actually fact?

Mr Motivator move over

He's also had insane luck in tournaments in terms of match ups.

The only really good win under him was Germany in the Euros. Other than that we've lost to any team on our level or better in major tournaments.

And that was effectively a home game against a weak German side.

I don't believe he did. I guess I could rewatch the whole debacle, but I'm pretty sure it went from foul to straight Red.

 

Sorry, Columbus Crew. You know, us Americans and how we name teams. The MLS in particular is awful with this. The few teams remaining from the beginning have out of place names when compared to a team like Charlotte FC or St Louis City SC (so wordy)

Yeah I got it after a few seconds. I looked into the MLS shortly after, never knew there were 29 teams in it!

Italy aren't great atm but he's got far more chance of winning something with them over the next few years than Konsa or Watkins have with England. 

If Southgate actually does one, who knows

Walker's returned to his club, so assume Konsa will be starting VS Belgium after his assured performance last night.

As a Crew fan, it stings slightly a bit less that it was to Deano.

 

But that match referee was AWFUL. Red card for something that might be a booking, then our captain gets stamped by Arfield and it's not even a booking. A very slight nudge for a penalty? Awful.

All I could think of at first then was Crewe Alexandra - given Westwood started there.

come on what?

He's joking. @Delphinho123's hate of Zaniolo is well known.

Donkety Donk has played/plays for Belgium.

Zaniolo may get in the Italy squad.

Coutinho had played for Brazil while he was fit and with us.

Olsen is a Swedish international.

 

Would you want to keep any of them in the summer?

 

Come on...

Sky are embarrassing, does someone do the ratings who's never kicked a ball before?

"Big chance squandered on 18 minutes, but blazed over from inside the box."

Blazed over? It was blasted onto his leg from point blank range.

I hate that little paragraph at the end. Fabrizio wouldn’t have put that if it’d been a Spurs youngster.

I'm sure he would have

Do not expect us to sign Zaniolo. Hasn’t done anywhere near enough for me.

Thought you rated him

Too much of a risk to Southgate. Need to make ourselves hard to beat and then try and nick a goal somewhere through a set piece. 

Through some Harry Maguire shoulder riding.

Foden scores for fun in that Man City team. Bellingham is world class, but was pretty quiet.

It ain't the players. 

I disagree about Bellingham being quiet, he was involved loads. Not saying they'll hit the heights they do at club level under Southgate but Foden was anonymous last night.

That block at 0:23 makes me wince given our recent luck.

How are you reporting this as fact? It's not at all provable that this was the case. Pretty sure Gerrard bought him for depth as cover for Luiz and/or McGinn in the roles Gerrard was deploying them. This was long before Kamara came in remember.

I agree but it wasn't before Kamara came in, we signed him after Kamara.

It was but Roy was so bad and frustrating that he seemed so different. 

Don't forget we had Allardyce inbetween. Would much rather him over Southgate (if the corruption hadn't happened anyway).

Daily mail said he's just not the same player for England as he is for villa

After one 90, laughable

If Toney plays well on Tuesday he's on the plane and Watkins is staying home. 

Belgium are another half decent side so I can't envisage our performance against them being much/any better.

England don't have a left back, they could play Saka and he would thrive in that role but it wont happen

No it won't and it shouldn't, he's our best right winger.
