Makes Thursday even more interesting. Despite the fact everyone's gonna be at work.
Yeah... its a fucking shame.

I said he was pointless, not bad. Admittedly, calling Lallana pointless is a little like saying water is wet. But I didn't select him.

Baffling subs from Hodgson playing for a 1-0 against an awful Russia side. Being a United fan I've been used to baffling subs under LvG, although ironically Rooney was subbed off.

Also the English commentary that was on the feed I watched was so full of entitlement it was beyond a joke.
Carroll.
He wasn't though? Russia played so deep that hardly anyone offered anything going forward, Rose and Walker were probably our best players. Lallana did a lot of dirty chasing and pressing work but should have come off at the end as he was tiring. We needed to do a lot more quick 1-2's etc as we was just trying to Man United our way in and Russia were happy to sit there.
Not the worst game though, although Sterling should just get sent home and not played again. Baffling why Roy didn't put Vardy or Sturridge on at 1-0.

Actually, yeah, you're right. Lallana missed 2, maybe 3, chances that we can't afford players to be missing. So I guess he wasn't completely pointless.
My biggest problem with Lallana isn't actually with Lallana though, its with Roy. If we're going to play 4-3-3 (which I actually much prefer as a system than the diamond) then why the fuck have we only taken 1 winger (a shite one at that) and are forced to play Lallana out wide? Admittedly the cupboard is bare, but still.

I don't know what the obvious fix is, really. Ordinarily I'd say its changing the formation, but the players look better suited to something like a 4-3-3.
Also, this goes without saying, but Kane on corners? Really?
I kinda get that, but not out of being older as I was pretty excited for the World Cup, even despite all the bollocks before it.
Certainly, England v Wales at 2pm... fuck's sake. That's the game I was hoping to see, if only as I have been saying for months I think someone shit like Simon Church will score a winner for Wales in that game.
Its not been helped by how bizarrely violent its been. Hopefully UEFA will do more than fine the Russians for last night's behaviour.
If that was ITV then that's par for the course. They have such appalling commentators.

It's not really an excuse when we had a winger in the squad (regardless of what you think of Townsend) and didn't take him so we could take 4 players to play in one position. In hindsight the Welbeck injury's fucked us a bit, but I'd rather see Vardy or Sturridge play out wide (even if they're better centrally) than rely on Kane as literally our only goal threat again - especially if he's as poor as he was last night again.
On the whole it was a remotely encouraging performance, but judging based on the Wales game earlier Russia are the weakest side in the group, I think those missed chances are going to really cost us.

Anecdotal evidence but Wales' Neil Taylor and Ben Davies have both been absolutely unable to get anywhere near him, never mind tackle him within the last 3 months. But still I'd rather have Ross Barkley.

Played a lot better when Conor Washington came on in the second half and the formation changed.

Germany games been boring too! Ukraine have had their chances but Neur has kept them at bay. And Boateng off the lime. Sensational clearance

Ozil for example showed how magnificent he is in the final minute when given a bit of space. But him Gotze, Draxler, Muller, Draxler, Kroos all a bit similar.
