Such a dire half I've resorted to watching Indiana Jones on One HD.

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
Its fine. We got the embarrassing performance to go with the embarrassing managerial appointment.
Gareth Southgate as England manager has really shown the actual interest in the job now. Next in line, Joe Kinnear or better yet David Moyes.
Also note quite a few of Scotland's first team starters were actually out... Just to add to that embarrassment.
From losing to Iceland to scraping a point from Scotland. The mighty England team of Shoulda woulda coulda's

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
As a team they're overrated, as individuals they're good players. It's England's inability to actually play as a team that's ruined them. Not a single player is on the same page as the next. Teams like Spain, Brazil, Germany, France etc all have far superior team cohesion than England do.
If you stuck all 11 England players in the same Premier League squad for a season, they'd perform far better in international football the season after. Obviously that's never happening so onwards to the World cup of racism in which we can be overran by Algeria and Gareth Southgate resigns and we appoint someone that's barely even mediocre.. because any of that is unfamiliar

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
We'll apart from Andy Murray losing, so far so good, if Lewis cracks it in Canada that will make it an excellent weekend.

Now we have their careers stagnating and going backwards in a series of loan deals to look forward to, such a shame in the wake of a pretty fine achievement

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
Did you watch the game? Given they come from a country with inflation at 800%, an economy that shrank by 18.6%, that had 28,497 recorded homicides last year and is wracked by massive internal strife that makes last weeks election here look like a trivial event. I though the young Venezuelan team was the equal of England on the day.
Quite a few of the England team are from Everton who thankfully do have a tradition of playing their youngsters but the chances are that most of them will be out on loan. The keeper doesn't even know if Newcastle want him back yet.
