I'd be tempted to take him off. He looks like a red card waiting to happen. Shame but I think he's too pumped up for this.

He's calmed down recently playing for us as he always used to do at least one scissor challenge a game not so long back.

Not very bright to be doing it on a yellow really.

He's done quite well on the ball in their half. But they're gonna have to fetch him off. He's a second yellow waiting to happen. His booking was an absolutely ridiculous challenge to make.

Wilshere isn't a holding midfielder and baines looks very short of confidence

Worst thing is, I think he's been the best of the midfielders with the ball, but he's just being too aggressive without the ball.  He's not being helped by Rooney though, a decent captain would be talking to him.

Yeah agreed, he's played well on the ball but he's a red card waiting to happen at the moment.

I would too.  He's doing well in possession, but it's hands over eyes stuff every time he goes into a challenge.

Wiltshire is gash.

Not gash but nowhere near as good as he or the press think he is, and he's a whiny little prick as well.

He has short legs and a really fat arse as well, either that or stupid sized shorts.

The fact that it's the referee trying to give him advice says something.

Wilshere almost played Delph into another yellow but luckily Fabian had the sense to pull out.

Wilshere has played 3-4 shocking passes that are tempting the player to throw a leg out and get themselves booked trying to make something from it.

Aye, it comes to something when it's the ref trying to calm Fab down and keep him on the pitch. Why the fuck aren't the England players doing it?

Fucking hell Phil Jones. There's some real liability defending out there

Sterling hasn't been that great has he? Still a threat though
