nick you must watch him more than I do, are you an Arsenal or Man Utd supporter to have so much knowledge of Welbeck?0

so the same as every player in the history of the game then?cafcnick1992 said:

Oh I see, so only Arsenal/United fans are allowed an opinion? As a football fan I probably watch more games than their respective "fans" do anyway.0

I like Kane, he's like a bigger Inzaghi. I'm not sayin that he is anywhere near that standard, but he is always right place at right time, doesn't have anything in particular, he's a just a real goal scorer.0

Montenegro v Russia second half has just started on Sky Sports 5 red button0

England played very well, but Lithuania were terrible, they were second to the ball every time0

You've written some rubbish, but that almost takes the cake. Welbeck is so underrated, his awkward style puts a lot of people off but he's a quality striker.cafcnick1992 said:

He can't score the premier league though. Never does and never will. Lacks that goalscoring instinct.8 -
I like welbeck! He's a good player sure there are others coming through with more potential but he's got a lot about him and always seems to score for England! He will be a pert of England does squads for quite a while! In the 4231 we were playing at the world cup he can play as any of the front four! The same with the 433 we have been playing lately! for that reason alone he's gonna get in a lot of England squads!1

A typically nice comment from you. His goalscoring record is worse than poor. He's a striker ffs. He wouldn't get near any of the top international sides.kentaddick said:

It just annoys me that other strikers who have scored 4 times more goals than him don't get a look in. Oh, and scoring lots of international goals against hot dog sellers doesn't count

I like Welbeck. Throws himself on the floor far too much though!0
-
Anyone else feel aligned with 'Arry Kane ?
Proper normal lad from a normal Lundun faaamily, playing for his local club and now doing it for his country. Can picture him playing in the street as a kid with an England replica shirtt in wanting to be Shearer.

I was so pleased for Kane proper roy of the rovers stuff! Nick, what have you got against Welbeck? He's been one of our better players for the last couple of years in an England shirt0
-
He's not our long term solution and he's stopping actual men who score goals getting a chance0
-
Wellbeck has been playing well recently for England, and had another good game last night. Good to se Kane get on and score - I wonder if he'll end up at Chelsea, City or United? Carrick, Henderson looked ok, but it's hard to judge against weak opposition1
-
Just got in from the game. Quality night, great seeing england win. Chuffed to bits for Kane. Everything he touches seems to turn into goals. Only £4.90 a pint at wembley too....
We are storming this group! Roll on France '16 and I'm off to italy on Tuesday!1 -
I went to the last qualifier at Wembley and was told it was a dry night ( no booze) because of Eufa rules . Why was it different tonight?NomadicAddick said:Just got in from the game.

How is 14 goals in 33 England games worse than poor? That's 1 in 2.3 games.cafcnick1992 said:

Who are the other England strikers you speak of who have scored four times as many as him?
Criticising him for scoring against poor sides is just stupid. would you rather he didn't?7 -
There are international strikers about with poorer stats than Welbeck has, I assume the strikers you're suggesting are the likes of Charlie Austin and Danny Ings?cafcnick1992 said:

Decent performance against a physically strong side .. debut goal for young 'Arry .. bring on the Eye-talians0

I'm not a fan of Welbeck if I'm honest, never have been. I think he's quite wasteful and still looks very raw. Some of his decision making and his touch often lets him down, plus he needs to be a lot more clinical...BUT he has improved since playing under Wenger and you can see that being at Arsenal is beginning to make him into a good player.
He also seems to work well with Rooney and Sterling and I'm not sure an out and out striker would suit our current style.1 -
I think we now have some very decent forwards. Welbeck, Kane Rooney, Sturridge, Sterling. What we are lacking are top class Midfielders and defenders.0
-
it was a dry night, no beer sold inside the ground, thought Rooney was excellent, Welbeck good and Carrick, Sterling better second half. Very subdued atmosphere though.1

There is difference to being a forward and being a striker.0
-
Really good point. I think that I must be too critical when I watch England and probably expect too much? I felt that, at times, it was just monotonous. We lacked any pace/zip in our passing and movement and this was against Lithuania! Just all too pedestrian for me, and with the likes of Carrick and the overrated Henderson (what does he actually do?) in midfield we will always be as dull as dishwater. There is so little creativity in the middle of the pitch.dickplumb said:I think we now have some very decent forwards. Welbeck, Kane Rooney, Sturridge, Sterling.

Hopefully I will eat my words after Tuesday night when we are up against a decent team.
Still, look on the bright side, I had a tenner on 4-0!

I had club wembley tickets (the middle tier) so I guess the rules don't apply to those seats. There were more kiosks selling booze then people!northstandsteve said:it was a dry night, no beer sold inside the ground, thought Rooney was excellent, Welbeck good and Carrick, Sterling better second half.
