The World League II

First topic message reminder :

Anyone selling a LW?

That's because Nando is a git

I'll open it up to the masses, best player to do the DM work for my team so that Kroos can do his magic?
Looking around the 20m mark.
Thinking Krychowiak or Carvalho currently.

I was 50-50 between him and Bonucci but went with the Uruguayan tank

I'd go Godin over Bonucci any day.

It was mostly about trying to save money was going to sign a RB aswell but couldn't find a decent one for what i wanted so bought Gameiro instead and figured id lump on Godin.

I'd go with the Pole

on that note anyone got a rb for sale.

Srna can go for cash.

Krychowiak definitely out of those two.

Or Gareth Barry

Kimmich

Championship table up to date.

Close at the top, looks like a 3 horse race for promotion.

No one's watching Turkey but Emre Mor is apparently having a stormer

I think my current team reflects how much i like Spanish players.

Fabregas outperformed Iniesta tonight. Then Spain fell to pieces when he was replaced.

Don't forget Srna had Nolito in his back pocket the whole game.

Ronaldo has gone full heel #Mr Winklechops

--------------Donnarumma--------------
Hysaj-----Howedes-----Koulibaly-----Luis
----------------Krychowiak-------------
-----------Kroos---------Sanches-------
Bale------------------------------Martial

How's that looking as first XI now?

A bit too multi cultural for my liking.

Im currently at


--------------Burki
Gaspar -- Silva -- Godin -- Hector
-------Xhaka --- Gundogan
Costa -------Firmino -------Nolito
-------------Suarez

If get RB & GK sorted ill be well away

You sold me Reus!!!

I thought there was something wrong That's why i bought Nolito

I rate Gaspar. He was the 2nd best RB in la liga behind Carvajal last season. Doubt you'll be able to get any better from foreigns.

Carvajal wasn't the best RB in La Liga last season. There's a reason Juanfran was the one picked for Spain!

cos Carvajal got injured....

Carvajal got injured in the champions league final and was ruled out of the Euros in case you forgot marky Juanfran would be nowhere near this Spain starting 11 if Carvajal was fit.

Hero your boy is not getting love from fifa.

They must be bloody mental

Fair enough if Carvajal got injured, I forgot that haha.

Still rating Juanfran above Carvajal though.

England vs Iceland will be tie of the round if results end as they do now.

England would struggle to score against Kwik Save let alone Iceland.

It would be a shame if Portugal are eliminated this early. I really want to see England vs Portugal. Hopefully they step it up a gear or else they're out.

No chance those FIFA ratings are true.

Currently mata is 83 martial 78 rashford 73 and Rooney 85. The same as the article. You telling me FIFA won't change any for next season? I think not.

That's a slow news day in the Metro

All this nonsense about Hodgson being to blame and his 6 changes is doing my head in. Look at the 6 changes...

Vardy and Sturridge -  After the Wales game, any England fan under the sun would have made those two changes.

Clyne - replaced England's best player of the first two games, but had a good game IMO.

Bertrand - didn't have as good a game as Clyne, but he replaced Rose, who hadn't done noticeably better in the first two games

Wilshere - he is getting stick for not having a great game, but that isn't what I saw. I thought he looked good and one of our better players in the first half and was let down by what was in front of him. He started to lose influence through fitness in the second half, but was replaced on 55 minutes

Henderson - okay, he didn't have a great game. Accepted.

But ultimately, it wasn't Hodgson making changes that was the problem, but a lack of putting the ball in the net, which comes down to Vardy, Sturridge and Lallana - two players everyone would have brought in, and one who had started the first two games.

The only change I question is, with hindsight, is I would have played Rooney and not Henderson. But that didn't cost us the win.

Get some perspective and stop looking for scapegoats. If England get their shooting boots on, then they have a chance against anyone. If they don't, we will go home early.

I think Wilshere looked like a man who'd played 3 games this season. Off the pace. Can see why Roy brought him as he provides a different element to the squad but hasn't paid off.

Really though, the media had written all the stories pre kick off. We had 29 shots, like 66% of the ball and it reads like we produced a 0-0 bore. We have an England team that plays on the front foot, plays a modern style and doesn't look petrified to be there, and people really prefer the days of McClaren or Capello?

I do think it was right for the changes, it was that game or never to know if Wilshere and Henderson were capable of playing later on for us. And I think it proved that neither of them should be in the team. I would have done a similar thing and can see the logic.

As for the media, it is a bit ott but what do you expect them to write? Fans were annoyed we drew 0-0 so the easiest thing to do is write the kind of headlines we've seen rather than praise that England look like they're going somewhere. Which I firmly believe they are.

The press have been out for Roys blood since their man 'Arry got passed over.

We should be beating the likes of Slovakia, top spot was ours and Roy blew it by bowing down to the fans/media. We're now on the tougher side of the group.

Rooney has been a 10 zillion% over hyped in this tournament, a couple of switching balls across the pitch (Not that great to be honest) and people are oohing and aahing over him. He has had more room than Ollys bumhole and what has he achieved? Kane taking the stick but fat-body is the one who should be creating. France will show what Rooney really is, a finished forward who has cowardly and selfishly gone in to midfield because he is afraid of two young lads (Martial and Rashford). Mourinho better sign a CM.

Any good games out?

No it usually lulls at this time.

Antoine Griezmann signs new 5 year deal at Atletico.

Batman - Return to Arkham is coming out next month. Should be a good un.

I rate Grizzlyman. He's the 2nd best french forward in la liga behind Benzema.

Griezmann was better than Benzema last year.

Griezmann had a good season but overall Benzema finished with a higher goals per game ratio than him even while being injured for most of it. 24 goals in 27 games in la liga is no easy feat when your surrounded by world class players like CR7 and Bale. Gman finished with a decent if unspectacular 22 in 38. I would pick Benzema over Griezmann every day of the week and this is a truly non biased viewpoint.

Benzema is just an Arab Giroud who kicks the ball a bit harder.

Didn't you say that Kovacic is one of the best midfielders in the world even though he didnt play that much last season?

Griezmann is the third best attacking player in the league behind Neymar and Aguero.

Tactics sent to Azzy as may be too busy tomorrow

This is the best day ever.

Jamie Vardy rejected us cos his got no confidence he can't get Giroud out the team...I mean really

Man Utd linked with a £50m move for Aaron Ramsey....So much LOL just so much id carry him there for £10

#F**kTehEU

I stand with Nando

Does seem to be a pretend manager leaning towards Leave.
I think for next season all Brexiters should be forced to only pick British players whilst I can have EU ones.
