Italy v England Euro 2024 qualifier

Post by Milltown1882 » Thu Mar 23, 2023 5:52 pm

Tricky start to the campaign with Italy away tonight.

Be interesting to see how we go and be a good acid test for the rest of the group.

Certain fans doing their bit to improve international relations as seen on Twitter..

Bellingham forearm into neck of Italian player, goes down holding his face, why do they do it knowing how many cameras can see he hasn't been touched.

Proof already being shown Philips should be no where near this England side with his lack of fitness and minutes this season.

Jack will go down there any chance that he gets.

Good old Southgate selections are amazing ,Maguire has played 3 times since World Cup,Phillhips has hardly played at all ,living up to his box ticking ,he would love to be able to play a female ,but has to manage with Phillhips instead, picked JFH has a new coach ,and said we needed to continuing being diverse .

I was baffled when they bought him.

Did reasonably well for England on occasion but he’s way below the levels of the type of player City have.

England are just a very very good international outfit these days.

The decision to play Phillips has proven to be a great one, it’s allowed Bellingham to play more advanced.
