Other Games - 2016/17

Have ITV mentioned that Rooney is on the bench yet? 

Soooo pleased he is on the bench...ready to come on and save the day.

[Somniloquism]

Is Giggs trying to talk tactics after all the discussion of his Swansea Interview failings?

[PeterWithesShin]

Hart keeping England in it.

[LukeJames]

That was some save by Hart!

[four fornicholl]

No interest in England anymore but that was a Banks

[Exeter 77]

Hart keeping England in it.

That was a great save to stop it and then keep it out after it clipped the bar. Not quite in the Bosnich v Coventry league but not bad.

A rubbish final pass from Alli there

[Meanwood Villa]

No matter how many times I say it I will repeat and repeat until everyone gets bored. Gibraltar having a national football team is fucking ridiculous.

Why? They are a sovereign state and they want to play football.
Whether they should be mixing it with the "big nations" and maybe there should be pre-qualifiers etc. is another argument but why shouldn't they have a national team?

I didn't know they were a sovereign state. I thought they were like Jersey. Or Shropshire.

[Exeter 77]

Jersey are trying to get recognised by FIFA in a similar way to Gibraltar.

Yes it is but so is one country having 4 international teams.

[Pete3206]

John Stones. How much?

Never thought of it like that before!

[Nev]

That front 3 are fucking wank. What a waste having Rashford sat on his arse.

[Dante Lavelli]

I know it was Gibraltar but Benteke is getting back to looking like his old self. And that comes from playing games on a regular basis for a club team that sets up to provide him the service he needs.

I think the 'service he needs' bit does him a disservice.  Playing regularly seems to be what makes him tick, once fit and sharp he can score pretty much any type of goal, just like one in the clip.  I think the 'he needs crosses' mantra has been swallowed by the media too easily and isn't questioned as this would mean questioning Liverpool/Klopp.

[Steve67]

Walcott off, thank fuck. Totally shit. Sturridge has been crap too. Sloppy with the ball England.
