Like I said at half time, Sterling is on his way to being truly world class.
Yes you did say that at half time, I was there.

Lo and behold 45 mins later - proved correct .Like I said at half time, Sterling is on his way to being truly world class.
we got there by accident !The appointment of Sourhgate was the best thing to happen to England for years.
could be a similar scenario to OGS : a player favourite managing to lift the gloom after a series of failing egomaniacs turned it all to shitePersonally eating humble pie on this one - was not happy with the choice but he’s been absolutely brilliant! Here’s hoping some silverware comes our way in the next few months, or years!
The last World Cup was the first time in over a decade I found myself actually giving a shit about England. In terms of his overall team selection, he’s actually made bolder decisions than pretty much every England manager in my lifetime. And I mean, up until a few years ago the media may as well have picked the team. It’s actually quite refreshing that he doesn’t have the same reliance on players from ‘fashionable’ clubs or the so called big 4, and that ‘big names’ aren’t automatic selections. But at the same time, he’s willing to back players and have confidence in them. He’s a breath of fresh air, to be honest.widely assumed to be a yes man who wouldn’t take tough decisions
- dropped Rooney, now retired
- dropped Hart (finally)
- dropped Wilshere
- dropped Cahill temporarily, instead looking at players from Leicester, Swansea and Burnley
- went to 3 at the back, and actually bothered to look at other options (like Walker in a 3)
- dropped Alli from the side when he was playing like a twat
- qualified easily, albeit from a piss poor group, with 7 wins and 2 draws from 9
Obviously we’re not gonna win the World Cup, we don’t have the players. But he’s done a much better job than most expected?
Rashford was injured and not in squad like.It was too much too soon when Southgate was appointed Boro manager, but I'm so pleased he's doing well with England. We were a joy to watch again last night.
What impresses me most is how a player has to fit into his system. Back in the days of the "Golden Generation" players were shoehorned into the side, it was literally a case of try and get as many of your top players into the team and hope for the best, and it would have been easy to have started Rashford wide left last night, but he's been doing well plaing up front for United, and Southgate decided he only wanted to go with one striker and couldn't find a place for him. I find that really refreshing.
Great to see the young lad Sancho given a chance as well and he took it.

Aye I do agree with the point thoughI've fucked up there then
Ah well, you understand the sentiment.

I always thought he was a bit hard done by at Boro. But I’m only going by the position you lot were in when he was sacked.It was too much too soon when Southgate was appointed Boro manager, but I'm so pleased he's doing well with England. We were a joy to watch again last night.
