England vs United States (The People’s Match Thread)

5 subs changes the way managers can rotate their squad now. You can keep a consistent starting lineup, then bring on subs to rest some players and give others minutes.

Ryan Reynolds involved in the pre-game presentation here in the States.

”Who better to tell you about England vs USA than a Canadian…? A Canadian that owns a Welsh football team.”

In some ways the World Cup is so much better when you don't have the anxiety of having to watch your own team... Especially when England can be so random at times

My fantasy team would love a hat trick each from Kane and Saka. Both assisting each other for all their goals also. Thank you kindly

FFS just realising I can’t stream this on iPlayer and have to watch Fox Sports. Feckin cringey.

You haven’t got itv?

I do now. Not had luck in the past with the app streaming in the farther reaches of the empire, but we shall see! It’s working now.

Gotta be better than the alternative 🤞🏻

Anyone on a yellow for us?

Currently watching the game in an "English" bar on the Upper East Side of Manhattan.

The FOX commentators are something else! They just said "hey folks, remember that England have technically never beaten the USA in a World Cup" 🥲

They do have a wide left player called Robinson - credit to them for that. Chances of him getting booked for dissent?

ForeverAddickted

THATS it England... cmon more of the same

Jints

That was good

Christ Maguire was like bambi as a foal when he was running into the box with the ball

Is he the Fulham player?

This passing it around at the back with their high press is making me very nervous 

IdleHans

Please don't ask me difficult questions

ForeverAddickted

Just head it Harry!!

moutuakilla

Have the USA got a coach with their subs warming up?

ForeverAddickted

Christ... USA should be ahead

DamoNorthStand

This is so laboured and slow 

moutuakilla

Looking nervous

Yes. Born and raised in England but chose the US

killerandflash

US pressing very well, but how long can they do it for?

Not at it. Trippier been especially poor.
Formation problem. Sterling and Mount hardly had the ball.

Not like we're forcing them to run much though

ForeverAddickted

Mount has to do better turning with the ball

ForeverAddickted

Cmon referee... How long did you need before blowing for a foul on Mount

ForeverAddickted

Fucking wake up

DamoNorthStand

Wake up FFS!!

These lads are cruising. Playing like they're already through. Application akin to a CAFC away performance

Need to step up a gear ffs
