COME ON ENGLAND
COME ON ENGLAND
COME ON ENGLAND
None of the CL finalist will be starting for England so Kane will not start
Sterling is England's captain on his 50th cap
England's starting X!
Pickford
Walker
Stones
Maguire
Chilwell
Barkley
Rice
Delph
Sancho
Rashford
Sterling
Bench
Rose, Dier, Lingard, Henderson, Kane, Gomez, Butland, Keane, Alli, Wilson, Alex-Arno and Heaton
The Dutch
Cillessen, Dumfries, de Ligt, Van Dijk, Blind, de Roon, de Jong, Wijnaldum, Bergwin, Depay, Babel
Subs
Hateboer, Ake, Propper, Promes, van Aanholt, Vermeer, de Vrij, Strootman, Vienna, de Jong, Van de Beek, Bizot
Still a pretty strong Three Lions lineup. Declan Rice might be the weak link
After the morons of yesterday, the England fans are filling up three sides of the stadium!
Hiya Banned One
Dutch managed by ex Saints and Toffees boss. Some Premier League rejects in the Dutch lineup along with some mid grade Prom players. Three Lions the stronger team on paper, but great coaching job by Fat Ron.
Good afternoon , Dave. Glad to join you
Off for a shower
Hiya, boys - great to have you on board for the proceedings. I'm really excited about this new England team. They've been great to watch during the proper qualifiers.
It's Banned Two
I would change the line up by changing Lingard for Delph
The rest is what I thought it would be
United's new winger Daniel James having a medical today
He was going to be at Elland Road in January
He is skillful and REALLY fast but... United's first signing... a Championship player!
We were supposed to sign him in January. Grrrr!
Agree with you about Lindy vs. Delph, although Lindy had a poor season at United.
Banned 3, reporting for your continued disrespect.
Did anyone watch the rag-tag collection of Yanks that played Jamaica in DC last night. Woeful doesn't do the display justice.
The Deuce about to start their show
Shame TT will be on the mic
Welcome Banned 3
I didn't watch any of last night's match... doesn't sound good!
Wahay! The coverage is finally starting up on ESPN+.
TT just talks too much....everyone isn't tuned in to listen what you think about EVERYTHING
Ian Darke and Double T in the stadium - that's a good sign.
These two teams came out of two tough groups
Of course, the Nations League has all tough groups...that's the point!
England bested heavy weight Spain and World Cup Finalist Croatia
Holland topped World Champions France and Germany
Heard that no one has dribble past Van Dijk in years!
That's can't be right!
England had no fans in Russia...now they are all there!
They had idiots of last night causing trouble...GROW UP
Teams in the tunnel and here they come
Drake says that England fans are outnumbering the Dutch by 7-1. Wow!
Teams in the tunnel.
Looks like the rain has started again. England won't mind that
Back for the match. According to Ian Darke The English fans outnumber the Dutch seven to one. Their behavior is based on , not quality
Teams paused at the top of the stairs at the end of the tunnel... FINALLY...here they come
The match is on televised on ESPN 2
GSTQ
National anthems playing in Guimares.
Agreed with Steve that the U.S. played horribly last night in D.C.
English fans behaving horribly during the Dutch anthem
Duh
The Dutch with two CL winners in the lineup. They don't seem to think it's a factor, or is it a sign of lack of depth?
The anthems are over and we're just about set to go here.
HERE WE GO
COME ON ENGLAND
COME ON ENGLAND
COME ON ENGLAND
ENGURLUND ENGURLUND ENGURLAND
Just read what Dave posted about United signing Daniel James. He's a United type player despite being a Championship player.
Minute silence for Johanseen .... fans doing well
Moment of silence for the passing of Len Johansson.
Away we go!
Surprisingly well. I'm stunned!
Moment of silence now for the former UEFA chief Lennart Johnannson.
Off from Guimares.
Crowd sounds great
Not a very good back pass by Maguire and then clearance from Pickford
Sterling to get us underway - I hope he scores a hat-trick today. Come on, England!
The pitch looks really small; is it just me?
Pi are squared took too long on the ball and was easily tackled. Sound familiar?
Great pass by Barlkley..the cross misses two people!!
Corner to England
A corner to England... how good they were in the WC.... two men get in the way of each other
Cross from, Sancho sliced out for a corner off a nice pass from Barkley. Maguire volleys over from a nice corner
Every time I complain about Delph, he has a good game. "Ohhhh, Fabian Delph's a donkey..."
Oh - first real chance for England. Sancho chipped a lovely ball over and Sterling should have scored! Corner.
Sancho led the Bundesliga in assists
England have started well
Welcome, Gooner! How are you, mate?
Delph stinks....is it working?
The Dutch cleared as if stuck in a Blind Alley . We've seen that song and dance.
How was the night out with the US v. Jamaica match last night?
Good afternoon Steve.
Depay with the first effort for the Dutch... blocked
Not so busy today. Got a better night's rest than I thought I would after attending that shower last night. Worst US performance I've every attended.
TT yapping too much already
Pi are round with a shot blocked off a pass from Wijnaldum after the Three Lions gifted possession. Horrible misunderstanding between Barkley and Walker
It sure was a cure for insomnia. Right Steve?
Maguire loses possession again....knock it off!
Maguire a target of United.... now looks like he might go off to City
Agreed, Dave. He needs a cone of silence
Some of England's passing has been terrible
England a chance to break....terrible pass by Walker!!
Horrible pass from Walker intended for Rash on an England break
Poor clearance by Maguire and De Jong set up Bergwin for a shot that Pickers held.
United should pursue Tim Ream or Omar Gonzo. They're international quality according to Coach B.
I think Maguire is more likely to go to Citeh than United
That hit Walker's arm before the break. Wonder if VAR would have had a look at it if England had scored
Nice reminder of that magical night at Wembley back in 96. Gooner and I were behind the goal that three of the England goals went in.
England need to use their pace and take on their fullbacks
Sterling or Sancho vs Blind!
Very jealous about that
Coach B more like a B movie director. They're more suited to the likes of Burnley
I have to admit that I didn't know most of the US team last night. I'm looking forward to catching up with the side during the Gold Cup.
STRUTH....HOW DID ENGLAND SURVIVE THAT!
Not good by Stones or Maguire and they knock into Rice and the Dutch mess up a big chance
PHEW! Thank that D 3.14 was in shooting position or else England would have been one down. Nice break led by Wijnaldum
Gazza popping the ball over Hendry, Shearer screaming for the layoff pass from Teddy. Great, great night
England attacking... TT doesn't stop talking if he's making a point...he just keeps yapping
Oh - big chance for Holland there with Wijnaldum feeding Depay who made a complete hash of his first touch. Got away with one there.
More poor passing by England
The two Daves being reminded why United shipped off Blind Alley and d 3.14.
AND MORE
COME ON
Remember that well from Euro '96 at Wembley.
Ian Darke gives Pompey a mention, stating they played an EL match at this stadium
Chilwell's passing has been atrocious so far.... pass to white shirt man
De Ligt would be a great signing for United . Would be a great defender for years
The ref has stoppe dut match for something and then starts it up again... wonder what that was for
Cynical foul by Dumfries on Chilly on a great run. How did he escape a booking?
Dumfries blatantly fouls Chilwell... just a foul given
A waste as it was an England foul off their free kick
ESPN need to sort out their sound!
Think the stoppage was to check the ball. Not sure what the need for that was.
Dumfries should have been booked for that foul on Chilly.
D 3.14 cuts in and his shot is straight to Pickford.
Depay with another shot easily saved by Pickford
The real chaff that was on display have been sent home. Coach B announced the CG squad this morning. It's not ideal
Keepers -- Steffen, Johnson, Miller
Defenders -- Miller, Adams, Gonzalez, Lima, Long, Lovitz, Miazga, Ream, Zimmerman
Midfielders -- Bradley, Holmes, McKinnie, Pulisic, Roldan, Trapp
Forwards -- Altidore, Arriola, Boyd, Lewis, Morris, Zardes.
Better from Dumfries. Nice tackle on Sancho.
I seem to be behind the action a bit; I'm going to start over again.
England's front three have not been very dangerous at all so far
Get the ball and take it at them!
Depay is giving me a rash here. I'd prefer the way that he played at OT.
Looks almost like an experimental squad from Coach B. A B squad picked by Coach B? Haven't heard of half those players
I blame England's lack of dynamic play in midfield.
England sitting too deep...press once in a while
Barkley has played a couple of good through balls so far. He seems the main threat.
Wijnaldum running the show. Not a good sign.
Chilwell has been pathetic...he swung and missed on a tackle there!
No one is saying it
ENGLAND STINKING IT UP
England having trouble clearing their lines.
Sterling, Sancho and Rashford have done NOWT
Van Dijck not going to make the same defensive errors that the likes of Stones and Maguire will.
Agreed - a better side than Holland would have punished some of these errors.
Maguire with an atrocious free kick!!!
COME ON ENGLAND
GET YOUR FINGER OUT
Don't see either of these two defeating Portugal on Sunday
Maguire and Chilwell have been the worst of the lot
England guaranteed to be playing on Sun day regardless the result of this match
Blame Brendan for that?
England are going backwards all the time and then losing the ball... GO FORWARD
Chilly caught out by the orange offside trap.
A couple of sugar cookies straight from the oven have arrived at my side. Yum!
I LOOKED AWAY
ENGLAND GET A PENALTY!!!!
PENALTY ENGLAND! DE LIGT CAUGHT OUT AND TRIPS RASH. BOOKED FOR THAT BECAUSE IT OCCURRED IN THE BOX.
Rashford to take!
Come on Marcus!!!
Sweet cookies and a sweet decision for England
Penalty to England!!!!!!
VAR to review. Yellow card given.
Rashford comes up.... ONE NIL!!
YESSSSSSSS!!!! RASH GIVES ENGLAND THE LEAD, SENDING THE BARCA RESERVE KEEPER THE WRONG WAY
Went the other way then he did in WC and Paris
COME ON ENGLAND... SCORE MORE!!
England in the lead against the run of play.
Rashford to take - come on!
Scores!
That was unlike De Ligt. Perhaps I should rethink him signing for United.
The goal was definitely against the run of play
De Light in the book and not a red because the goal scoring opportunity wasn't taken away because of the pen... makes sense to me... no double jeopardy
Decent save by Pickford off a long range effort from Babbel. Made it loom tougher than it was.
It's definitely a change of the guard.
I never worry about keeper. We churn out a conveyor belt of suitable ones.
I've got issues with the center backs. Miazga may eventually keep progressing, but we know all we need to about Ream and Gonzo (buy them both OGS)
I'm less than delighted to see Altidore back in the fold, and even more so to see Zardes included.
Again, Maguire doesn't seem to know what he is supposed to do
is it Barkley's fault not helping him out
Agreed. Definitely the correct decision.
England had a chance to break.... PATHETIC BY BARKLEY AGAIN!!
Bring on some CL players on at half time
Rashford in.... blocked!!!
That was a good move
Rashford down hurt...hope he's ok
That's Rash's 7th goal for England in 32 matches. Not a great strike rate for a forward.
Nice last ditch tackle by Dumfries on Rash. Nice run and pass from Sancho. Rash down off that challenge.
I'm really enjoying watching Sancho this year. He's special.
Agreed. Rash should be scoring more often for both club and country.
Oh - Sancho played Rash in but Dumfries got across to block him. Rash is down needing treatment.
Wonder if Rash will continue... I was hoping he'd get a shot off a little quicker
Agreed. Hard to believe Sancho couldn't get a game for Citeh.
Agreed - Sancho has been the bright light in this half. Barkley has been good two; he's about the only natural #10 that England have right now.
Rashford is going to come back on
Still limping a bit
Might have to rouse Kane off the bench early here.
If Rash is Not Abel to continue then Harry Kane will be an Able replacement.
Wijnaldum fouls Barkley from behind and again , a Dutch player escapes a booking.
Sterling needs to get into this match more... come on...you're the captain
England's free kick...knocked back.... decent effort from Delph
Long ball by the Dutch keeper...Depay takes out Pickford
Nice free kick chance now.
Great sweeper keeping by Pickford off a long punt from Cilessen after he caught a shot from Delph off a free kick that was headed away. D 3.14 called for a foul on Pickford.
Pickers with some great sweeping up when Cillesson tries to free Depay.
England need to survive until half time and then change some things up.... this hasn't been good
Another late challenge from Wijnaldum
This match has been like the Champions League Final... pretty naff!!
Dumfries in the book for a challenge on Chilwell
Dumfries finally booked , for a clumsy challenge on Chilly.
Another nasty one by Wijnaldum. He needs a booking now.
He's still down
Ref wants the stretcher on
Rose getting ready
Chilly knocked out cold. Danny Rose to be the first CL player to come on for England?
Into a pair of stoppage time minutes. May be three or four.
Now it's Dumfries into the book for a nasty one on Chilly. He might have already been sent off by now.
The ref is making sure the concussion is sorted out
TT is on a rant again
Danny Rose up and getting prepared.
Chilly dazed, but looks to continue, at least till halftime. Free kick cleared.
Why did Chilwell take the kick...physio came on...he should have gone off
The Dutch have been filthy in this first half. Total football? Don't make me laugh. They're playing like Wimbledon.
Don't concede... Come on!
Rashford looked clueless there...just ran into De ligt
England could use the half time whistle now to regroup.
What on earth is Ian Darke talking about - the Dutch have been filthy!
Shot from Wijnaldum blocked for a corner after Stones gifted the Dutch possession. Horrible attempt by D 3.14 for a penalty
De Ligt heads the corner from d 3.14 about 3.14 meters wide.
SO BAD FROM STONES!!
WHAT ARE THEY DOING!!!
Three added minutes of 2 added!
Corner... can England survive....header just wide
More upsetting play by England
Stones with a terrible attempted clearance there, put his comrades under pressure. Corner.
Half time
England one up but second best by far...but the Dutch haven't created much
Three Lions one up at the half.
Off to take Melanie to the dentist . Not sure if I will be back before the end of the match
Oh - De Ligt had a real chance. Free header. Who was marking him?
My school day just ended!
Cheerio, MUR - hope you can make it back.
If Rashford can't continue, I'd rather see Calum Wilson. We know that Kane is not 100% so why not keep him in contention by playing him regularly?
ESPN covering Euro 2020 next summer... games all over the place but the final four in London
Dutch coming out first..
England are going to make a change at half time.... Kane is on
Looks like Rashford is off
It says it all.... there is not ONE Manchester United player on the pitch!
The Dutch get us going in the second half
Delph makes a move but then turns backwards again.... STOP BEING SO NEGATIVE
I hope Kane can get a goal today and kick start him for hopefully the Final
