Good save Pickford to prevent 4/4.

That was a great save and would have been a great goal.1

Quite a good half of Football that... As an England fan didnt overly enjoy it, we're in danger down the flanks, Rashford the main culprit as he's not getting back to support Trippier.
He'd be the obvious sub for me, with Maddison coming on.0 -
Arteta thinks he is but what does he know? Rashford is a form player and when he is on form he should be one of the first names on the teamsheet, but he hasn't found that form so far this season. Does Southgate actually follow what is going on?sam3110 said:

Nothin makes me feel older than seeing the likes of Joe Cole as old. Mind you, I used to watch Jude Bellingham's dad play0

Against Man City, Arteta dropped Havertz and brought in Jorginho to play alongside Rice... but even when it's Rice on his own he's usually supported by an inverted full back tucking in like Zinchenko etc.MuttleyCAFC said:

There's for sure an argument for going more attacking against weaker sides but Italy aren't mugs. They've exploited a couple of gaps in our defence in the first half and I don't think the solution to that problem is to take off a defensive minded player for an attacking one.

Joe Cole is an awful pundit too isn’t he?

I think what you fail to take into account is a more attacking player in there will blunt Italy as the game will be less comfortable for them. I am a great believer in playing to your strengths and seeing as England have some massive strengths, it seems even more ridiculous not to.Callumcafc said:

We complain about no LB, England playing with two right footers on the left of the defence0

There’s some real mauling of the English language going on among that quartet in the studio.KBslittlesis said:Joe Cole is an awful pundit too isn’t he?

France under Deschamps have the same philosophy and have been very successful with it.

Still don’t know how that Vieri header didn’t hit the net.Manic_mania said:Just to change the subjet slightly - i'll always remember that night world cup '98 qualifying when we had to go to Italy and get a point to qualify (after missing out in 94) The atmosphere in the pub as a 16 year old (I know!) was the most electric i've ever felt on an England night without being live in the ground.
I can still remember that sky sports music prompts for the game was "I'm back and ready to go" forget who it's by but it was amazing - every time I hear that song I still get goosebumps remembering it.
Ian Wright nearly scored really late on but hit the post then they immediately went up the other end and almost scored on the break.0 -
Never a penalty that Foden!!0
-
Never a pen, but it should have been brought back for the foul on Kane.0
-
so... if that turned out to be a penalty... and italy kicked it around for 5 minutes without the ball going out of play? do VAR still bring it back? Whats the time limit on it? what happens about injury time? does the time between the e foul and the ball going out of play get added on?0

Review
The referee can initiate a ‘review’ for a potential ‘clear and obvious error’ or ‘serious missed incident’ when:
the VAR (or another match official) recommends a ‘review’
the referee suspects that something serious has been ‘missed’
If play has already stopped, the referee delays the restart
If play has not already stopped, the referee stops play when the ball is next in a neutral zone/situation (usually when neither team is in an attacking move) and shows the ‘TV signal’
