You'll have all the Northern Irish fully behind you guys tonight.

After Albania winning last night, if Russia fail to win against Wales, and England beat Slovakia. Then Northern Ireland can squeak through in a best third place spot if we lose to Germany by the same scoreline or less than Slovakia get beat today.

It's all a tad complicated and confusing but please do us a favor, England!

(England v. Northern Ireland is actually possible for the last 16. That would be fun.)

If you believe the press: Walker, Rose, Rooney, Alli, Sterling and Kane OUT; Clyne, Bertrand, Henderson, Wilshere, Vardy and Sturridge IN.

Are we through safely yet??

No...so why are we weakening the side, the changes that needed to be made are Vardy and Sturridge in for Kane and Sterling

I will laugh repeatedly if it does

Henderson for Rooney the only one I'd have reservations about, Clyne and Bertrand could have easily been 1st choice, and Alli has looked well off the pace.

Agreed.......Rooney has been brilliant so far. I could see Wilshere stepping in for him but not Henderson who just runs around a lot? That is, unless Roy wants to tinker with the formation again?

6 changes confirmed. Cahill captain.

gerry m · « **Reply #1659 on:** June 20, 2016, 07:27:25 PM »

6 changes is a hell of a lot! Should have given Fraser Forster a game. Hart needs a kick up the pants, has been in my opinion at fault for both goals conceded.

What is Jack Wheelchair doing on the pitch! Game is just going on around him. He is not fit enough for this tournament.

This team are lacking a cutting edge some nice patterns at times but no clear cut chances bar the one for Vardy.

gavinrussell · « **Reply #1664 on:** June 20, 2016, 09:32:07 PM »

Henderson off and Rashford on pleaseeeeeeeee

gavinrussell · « **Reply #1665 on:** June 20, 2016, 09:51:17 PM »

Runners up might be better than winning the group...

Well it may have finished 0-0 but I thought England played really well tonight. We look as good as any team in the tournament with the exception perhaps of Spain. It's been a long, long time since we've had a collective group of players that are so comfortable on the ball.

We couldn't find the breakthrough, I thought we were a little unlucky. Slovakia were ultra defensive all game and the longer the game went on the worse they became. Their goalkeeper was taking forever with goal kicks from the first time he had to take one.

There's not much wrong with this England team. Given the breaks and the right team selections we can do well in this tournament.

Atomic · « **Reply #1667 on:** June 20, 2016, 09:57:16 PM »

One more thing - Eric Dier - absolutely magnificent. He's some player.

TheJacko2000 · « **Reply #1668 on:** June 20, 2016, 10:02:47 PM »

Dreadful tonight, no cutting edge whatsoever, our best striker being alienated out on the right wing, Hodgson has got previous for this *cough* Odemwingie *cough*.

Sturridge is NOT our best striker. He's a flicker and is wasteful.

There's clearly not much in the way of a Plan B when teams pack ten men in the box against us; we're always just looking for that slight gap or bit of luck to go our way because we haven't got that extra bit of quality needed to open them up. However, since that's the case, it might actually work in our favour to have finished runners-up and face a slightly better team in the next round than we otherwise would have done. Let's hope we get a team we can go toe to toe with and use the likes of Vardy to best effect.

Congratulations to Wales for topping the group, and most of all, for eliminating Russia and their thugs. Job well done.

Russia are the worst team in this tournament. We picked the wrong team against them we should've buried them they are woeful.

frustrating doesn't come close to how I feel watching that, get the impression too many players play as individuals instead of a team. sturridge and ali the main culprits.
