Title: Sterling
Post by: gavin on June 26, 2016, 20:25:11
This tournament could really be the making or breaking of him. I really hope he has the mentality to come through the bollocks surrounding him at the moment. He has the talent and pace. He's shown he can do the business and then some in European matches like at Seville. I'm sure Pep can work on him but he has to start being a man and build the mentality to perform consistently even when he is getting shite thrown at him.

apparently Pep has phoned him to reassure him he's in his future plans & not to let the negative press bother him.

He's gonna start apparently. Should be able to be good against Iceland really.

Not so good from Joe again.

No, not great at all. Should be saving that. But the defence for both goals has been shit and quite frankly, we don't deserve to go through playing like this.

England were determined to give everyone a good laugh on their way out of Europe.

Deserved what we got.


England struggled to score all tournament.


Russia: Fee kick (Dier)
Wales: 1 Goal from defensive error (Vardy): 1 good goal from open play (Stuge)
Slovakia: 0 goals
Iceland: 1 Penalty


4 games and only 2 goals from open play, one I consider fortunate.

Terrible really considering the quality

Sterling was shite, again. They all were though to be fair. Incredible result for Iceland and I hope they do a Greece from euro 2004!

As for England,  I'm not sure how these players can be so good for their clubs and so bad with and England shirt on. Saw this stat on twitter last night :

England have only won 6 games in knockout football since 1966:
Paraguay 1986
Belgium 1990
Cameroon 1990
Spain 1996
Denmark 2002
Ecuador 2006

Consistently shit with one blip in 1966.

England v Wales was a group stage game - Wales lost but they weren't knocked out...
