Fair play to villa played well
Arsenal was crap but can't take away from fighting spirit from them

CBT

Grealish as much I think hes a bit of a tart is looking very good tonight

CBT

Theres a chance we add another 60 runs in first hour tomorrow but doubt Root will declare at that which probably won't give us enough time to bowl them out unless the pitch gets alot worse
Could be a good final day though

CBT

Could England live to regret Dom Sibley's lengthy 120 in the first innings when the weather forecast was so bad and we had the likelihood of losing a day's play? Perhaps There's an argument that as long as we've been crying out for an opener like Sibley,that sort of play has died out these days IMO...

CBT

I would hope the changes needed will be made.Buttler and Denly have to go,Root coming back in and move Crawley up to three,and Foakes in for Buttler.Also,either Archer or Wood for Broad. Nailed it Think Wood will be the one rested for Broad especially after Archers bowling in the 2nd innings I woul...

CBT

England could yet win this match, but even if they do there's still lots of :?: marks in both the batting and bowling departments. The positives are Burns, Crawley & Sibley look like solid top order test players, and they'll be around for years to come, Denly's got to go, he's 34 and we need to get...

CBT

You could argue there's 6 sessions left if the weather stays bright til 7 each night
Bat rest of today and an hour or so in morning then should be good viewing for rest of tomorrow

CBT

Not too concerned about Burns he'll be around for a long time probably future captain
Sibley's the interesting one he starts slow but gets some big scores when settled in 1st class games
Hopefully he starts to do same in test matches

CBT

The BBC documentary 'race and pace' featuring him and many others from the west indies really is one of the best things you'll see on TV regarding local life up here
Doesn't matter if you like cricket or not,it's still great viewing

CBT

Alot of people say he was the best of a very good bunch of professionals to grace the Lancashire league
Rest in peace

CBT

Fodens touch and control when he gets the ball is like nothing I've seen before from an English player before
Maybe Gascoigne came close

You fell right into his trap vino.....

Not intended as a trap
Pope and Tarks have been around the England squad before but take off the claret tinted specs and would either make the starting lineup
Pope's kicking says no for me and I'd prefer Walker although out of position he's a class act

CBT

The starting 11 is beginning to look the strongest it’s been since the ‘golden generation’ when with half decent management, we should have won at least one trophy. I think the quality of the depth of the squad is very important, and their ability to fit in readily. There are quite a few players no...

And McNeil in midfield

He's got a great chance of making the squad not sure about starting tho

How good could England be at next Euros and world cup Keeper? Alexander-Arnold Maguire Centre back? Chilwell Holding midfielder? Sancho Foden Stirling Rashford Kane It looks promising to me The 3 question marks for me - keeper I haven't got a clue Other centre back - maybe Walker,Tarks,Ming's,Stones...

Can't believe Watford were favourites at start of game
I know we've injuries but don't we always beat them?
Plus we've been better all season I'd say

The obvious one is Rovers 5-0.

The 6-5 away at Grimsby wasn't too bad with us scoring all them goals.

Would that be the highest scoring game in memory then?

CBT

Borussia Mönchengladbach for me too. Syko are you the one I see regular in a gladbach hat? Ironically my first gladbach game was away at Frankfurt who they face this weekend. It stemmed from that trip. Long story short we were due to go to Stuttgart for weekend. Flew into Stuttgart but went to Fran...

Good game of rugby live on sky this afternoon

Looks a good crowd too
Makes a change from super Sunday footy

CBT

I'm not sure that that's really the point. We look a far better team with either Vydra and Rodriguez alongside Wood because we play much better football. Barnes is quite effective in his own way, but he just can't do the things that Rodriguez or Vydra can. We were very one dimensional and physical ...

CBT

There's quite a big step from "scored more goals than Barnes or Wood" to "£85 million". I can only assume they have turned it down because they expect a bigger bid. Unless they think he is the man they can build a Premier League Champion side around? As the agent on sky said....if Barcelona want hi...

CBT

Clinical from England again,true the Saffers have been poor since the 1st test,but there is plenty of positives England can take from the series. Pope has blossomed and will be in the test side for many years,Sibley's showing he can develop into a solid test opener,ditto Crawley,and don't forget Ro...

One trick pony, that Dyche bloke. Get him out. He's tired, looking for excuses - and all the rest of the **** some of our so-called "fans" have spouted over the last couple of weeks.
Absolute wankers, the lot of 'em.

He always comes good when most needed

No tackling by our midfield allowed him to run through Bardsley allowed him room and actually turned his back on the shot He has a ferocious shot and again we've failed to do our homework on the opposition Every time our midfield tackled him we fouled him No option but to stand off He's class best ...

Our players are capable of passing the ball to each other. They wouldn't have made it so far in their careers if they were not. They are being coached to play one way - hoof it as far as you can into a channel and hope someone will run on to it. Our players are being badly let down by very poor coa...

Its cut off day today (match 19) so all on 4 cards have a reprieve to 10 cards before suspension.

Good move by Dychey I reckon ... lets hope Tarks xan avoid a Yellow now

The Southgate syndrome. Score first and lose. Doesn’t happen to top sides. Happens far to regularly to Southgate. If Dyche were in charge of that lot we'd score first and probably go on to score again Imagine slab head and Tarks in the box for the amount of set pieces England should be getting with...

I’ve been baffled by this ever since it was announced last year.
