    England game is wank so moving across to Wales. Is there a way to watch it without the commentary being in Welsh?

    So many positives to take though.

    It's so tiresome hearing about them all.

    The badness of our back 5 is genuinely upsetting.

    I can’t believe Lyndon Dykes and Liam Cooper still get call ups. God, we’re horrendous

    God I hope a goal sorts Ferguson out, if he ever actually gets another one. He's like a lost sheep.

    Needs to be on the tv, so back to England we go. Still, at least I now know there's something worse than watching England.

    Should have cashed in last summer.



    Any half decent team are going to sit back and counter us to death, we're so bad 'in transition' without the ball.

    He looks like when James Collins used to get a game for us.

    Bellingham doesn’t even play in centre mid. He’s like Harry Kane when he drops deep. No wonder Southgate likes the Phillips/Rice combo

    These two results could well be a disaster for the summer. I know players are out but just makes you think that he will sink back into ever more defensive football once everyone is fit.

    The criticism of Pickford in goal for England is just bizarre.

    He hasn't made one mistake leading to a goal for England in a major tournament. In important matches, he has been a player we can rely on.

    Yep, not ideal you'd have thought.

    I just read that today was first error leading to a goal in an England shirt in 60 matches. That shows it probably doesn't matter.

    So I looked at the thread and then looked at the result. A draw against Belgium doesn't sound like a catastrophe.

    Must be a weird feeling. Him kicking that ball the wrong way means tens of thousands of people change their summer plans, probably a reasonable hit to the Welsh economy this summer. A few struggling pubs will probably have to close down because of it.

    On the plus side, Michael Sheen will have to shut up for a bit.

    That Lukaku cross was the best thing he's done in years. I don't know whether it was Jose Mourinho (in that game where he went and donned Arsenal with a back seven, and possibly other times) or Belgium who had him doing it first, but he should definitely have embraced being an ungainly right-winger when Ole Gunnar Binman suggested it instead of spitting his dummy.

    You should go on Instagram and direct message him with this. I reckon you'd break him.

    I saw a bit of Rhys Ifans rabble rousing speech to the Welsh team the other day and, whilst I'm sure it wasn't, due to his being an actor it all felt a bit put on. Couldn't help but think that the players must generally think these things are a bit odd as they are made to sit and watch him pace around like some Brian Clough of the Valleys type figure.

    You have to be a particular kind of small time. Not even Scotland would resort to sending actors into the dressing room.

    Maybe they should think about sending Rab C in for the Euros, if he's still alive. I'm thinking that's unlikely.

    But the Welsh lap it up; they absolutely love it and use it as some sort of affirmation of their love of the country, a Liverpool-lite if you will, claiming that it means more to them.

    And it's the same regarding how hard they wank off their national anthem - there is only so many times I can see a Twitter post clipping the crowd singing it with the caption "GOOSEBUMPS! *heart emoji*".

    Romeo Lavia won’t be back for the rest of the season. 30 mins playing time in 11 months time is an great effort.

    I don’t even know what his initial injuries were. Missing 6 months from December onwards for a thigh issue is some going

    I see Robertson got injured on international duty again, not having a good year him.

    Probably makes Goe Jomez a shoe-in for a leftback role for England.

    Why did he not come clean at the point he was charged by the Italian FA get it all out in the open and then hope for some leniency? Either he's being very poorly advised or he went to the FA and they told him to piss off and are now thinking they can hang him out to dry as well.

    Might be some good RAWK on the horizon. Liverpool journos have been briefed that it will not be Xabi Alonso coming in. They don't believe he will leave Leverkusen apparently.

    As mentioned previously THE DATA suggests Anorim from Sporting is the ideal replacement. If not him I don't know where we go next.

    I heard Barcelona. He looks enough like Xavi. He'll probably be a bit of a car crash wherever. Interesting decision if Alonso decides to stick it out, although I have advocated it previously. Chris Wilder stands as testimony to why that isn't necessarily always a good idea. He was linked to Arsenal at the peak of his hype wasn't he? Everyone said he'd be mad to go and he was sacked 6 months later.
