Anyone watching England v San Marino

[baggieal]

Oh come on, Al, that is going a bit too far………

Yes it is a bit as those two should be banned FFS! Just making a point!

You had me worried there……!

I agree .... give the lesser teams ..... San Marino, Andorra, Faroe Islands, Malta, Scotland .... a chance

What is worrying is to see the thousands of England supporters who actually made the trip .... complete with a massive West Bromwich Albion flag in the corner ..... would have been a great opportunity to debut our FOL Flag

England kitman is a Baggie and always takes the flag with him. He has an excuse. He's getting paid.

Had it on with sound muted while I wrote some emails. I caught glimpses of it and was not impressed. At 4-0 I switched to having the NI v Italy game on. Very entertaining looking up to catch glimpses of a tight, competitive game.

Complete waste of time, what do either team get from this as a fixture, absolutely nothing.

I don’t think I’ve seen such an abundance of quality youngsters ever for England. Nightmare to choose a first 11. We’ve easily got three top quality teams we could field. Must be the envy of the world right now.

I will agree Boingy that we do have a strong group of young players at the present moment and it does auger well for the future. However, I cannot understand why the media is 'waxing lyrical' regarding England's 10-0 victory over San Marino and Kane's four goals, two of which were penalties. At best San Marino would probably compete in the sixth level of English football. Yes, you can only play against what is put against you but let's get some perspective on the situation

[WBA1955]

We absolutely bladdered them, it could have been more but the jammy b astards got away with two goals disallowed.
A masterclass from England, they made the opposition look like part timers.
Kane is surely our greatest striker of all time.
San Marino?
Who R Ya?

It's all down to the slow revolution that has taken place in the coaching of English kids over the last 30 years. We have gone from being the dinosaurs of how to encourage and promote skills to up there with the best. I predict this won't be a short lived 'golden generation' but the first of a production line of world class English kids.

Just remember also Portugal and Italy didn’t manage to qualify from these waste of time groups and are now at the mercy of the play-offs as another chance of getting to the World Cup.

If Holland lose tonight they also will not qualify and depending upon other results they may not even get into the play-offs.

Very easy to be critical but the one thing we are good at is qualifying. Come on England.
