I don't understand how that qualification group works (probably because how qualification works is irrelevant to me since I'm Irish) but did Italy top their group? Would 4 wins and 4 draws not be enough to automatically qualify?

Good riddance

Haha. Aidan, Aidan, Aidan. Google is your friend (hint: Switzerland got more points).

I watched the Mexico vs USA highlights (OK not exactly highlights but still) ... the Mexican commentators almost fell off their chairs laughing at one USA miss around the 77th minute. More fun than the match.

France v Ivory Coast is free on YouTube if anyone fancies it. Alright game

 

[Modo]

Give Villa £35 mill for Jacob Ramsey before it's too late.

 

[StevieM]

The mighty Norn Iron holding them to a 0-0 in Belfast has crushed them.

Henderson playing 90 mins in a pointless friendly.
Southgate is a wanker.

On the subject of International breaks, - now don't assume I am one of those people that always make an issue out of race, I don't but I always notice the underlying issues - especially when it comes to the England team. If Harry Maguire was a black player showing the same form for club, he would NEVER have been picked for England for these friendlies. Fact.

Not sure about that, I mean Mings was picked and he hasn't been that great either.

He is a good defender and not first choice. Also he dont play for a near billion pound team.

 

[Modo]

Yet he still picked him over Tomori.
I dunno, maybe there is a racial element to it all, but I just don't see any "facts" that back it up

obviously nobody knows if there’s some racial considerations going on but he’s an £80m defender and everyone knows Southgate tends to stick with the same group. It’s probably a call up to assess whether it’s an actual decline or a club based crisis of confidence.

 

[StevieM]

There’s no decline at all in Harry Maguire.

He’s always been shit.
