eFestivals Posted May 15, 2018 Report Share Posted May 15, 2018 tries to embed.... https://twitter.com/RTEsoccer/status/996118013387522049 Failed, with the forums giving a msg that "The link could not be embedded because an error occurred on twitter.com."

ThomThomDrum Posted May 15, 2018 Report Share Posted May 15, 2018 One couldn't have that young Dutch team not progress. They were supposed to spank Ireland 10-0.......... Utter farce TBH and nothing at all will be done about. Have to feel so sorry for the young keeper (and all the lads involved). Perfectly good save and very much the type of save we see all the time when it comes to peno saving. Thinks he has won it for his country and he gets sent off? Thats gotta hurt a hell of a lot and im sure they are all well angry with that. Nearly as bad as Henry's handball, what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keepers off the line is the last thing that needs sorting with penalties anyway. Need to stop the bullshit stop/start thing players do when taking one. Should be one swift motion.

pink_triangle Posted May 15, 2018 Report Share Posted May 15, 2018 I always find the hype about squad announcements a bit strange. For all the nations people know the bulk of the squad and those battling for the last few places are probably not going to get much playing time.

WS_Jack_III Posted May 15, 2018 Report Share Posted May 15, 2018 Shelvey to miss out on England squad because of his disciplinary record and fears he won't be a good "Tourist". Livermore tested positive for Cocaine use and wasn't exactly a great "Tourist" with WBA when he stole a taxi. Dele Ali has an appalling attitude but gets away with everything because he already is an England international. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh, I don't think Shelvey's disciplinary record is the biggest concern, it's that he sometimes goes completely missing in games, doing absolutely nothing except misplacing the odd long pass. He's had a great 4 months and I'd have taken him because he offers something different, but there's a good reason he's been shipped off by two teams before he ended up at Newcastle.

If Shelvey was as good as Dele, he'd get a call up. I do think he'd add more to the squad than Livermore tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't say the bulk of the squad is set in stone for England. Lots of players that are a similar ability. Agree that most nations are more clear cut though. Speculating who is going to be in the squad is just a symptom of being excited for the world cup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there are lots of players of similar ability surely it matters little which ones you take. It’s like the talk of Delph v Young to me it doesn’t matter one way or the other.
