The other Godfrey would have probably spiced this game up more and I'm not on about Roley.

One for us old farts  


My old brain nudged me and said Brian Godfrey, used to play for the Scunts?

When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

I see Grealish “ won” his customary penalty.

Having watched the whole of the Romania game, not falling asleep as I did with Austria match, we have only scored 1 goal in open play. Not that the play was riveting to watch with a non-existent attack and a defence that was lucky not to concede.

I then read that Southgate has taken a leaf out of the Holloway/Fenty guidebook of football. He is arranging a darts match and a BBQ. Apart from Private Godfrey, above, we also have the comment from Private Fraser of Dads Army  'We're doomed, we're all doomed'.

I want us to win but on the current 2 displays, Private Fraser may be right.

Grealish and Rashford best players for me against Romania . Saying that England best player for me if on form still has to be Raheem  Sterling .

I'd have to disagree with you here Rick12.  Backend of the season he has been poor.  He is one of the most frustrating footballers who has bags of pace but doesn't use this enough for me.  Instead runs towards the byline stops and passes it backwards.

Don't get me wrong when on form is a good player.

Makes sense not taking JWP for  a team that relies on set piece goals once they come up against anyone half decent at the finals of a tournament.

Fair enough Meza. But for me when is on it he is such a dangerous player.

Rashford and Sterling have not played well consistently all last season.  Southgate should (in my view) pick Grealish and Foden with Kane up front.   This is based on current form and their form last season.

Southgate is a traditionalist and loyal to his players.  He will pick at least one of Rashford or Sterling to start against Croatia,
