Ok, so ignoring your insult, please expand on why you think booing an anti-racist message is a good thing to partake in?

Bore off will ya… let’s just talk about the game. Want the other nonsense, start a thread.

Your predictable pretentious post. Maybe, just maybe, the many people booing arnt ignorant, and have good reasons for doing so.

Also it’s …. “Aren’t ignorant”

Just thought I’d correct that for you.

Calling people who choose to boo is an insult. And they aren’t booing an ‘anti-racist message’ they are booing the knee, which has been explained time and time again that, despite what the players may say, is a gesture with political meaning. After months and months of BLM over our screens, on the backs of shirts etc the gesture will never be distanced away from that organisation.

Struggling to decide which is worse that dross being served up in Poland or the inane regurgitated shite on here.

Why do people dislike Kane so much out of interest? Seems like a lot of English people really want him to fail which I don’t understand.

Just got in… is it a good game?

Oh Kane scored

Rileybobs · Post by **Rileybobs** » Wed Sep 08, 2021 9:18 pm

I hate it when Kane keeps dropping deep for the ball. Just stay in the box you fool.

Ok, well thanks for your explanation. I’d like to think that the reason the team do it isn’t for a political statement, but I can see how that might be misconstrued.

Kane is one of the world's top strikers, as he has just shown.

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Wed Sep 08, 2021 9:27 pm

Cracking strike from Kane, and the swerve he got on that ball was crazy, no wonder Szczesny couldn't get near it.

Kane scores in a 15th CONSECUTIVE World Cup/European Championship qualifier. When England need a goal he usually delivers.

Hold onto this and it should be easy street for the rest of the campaign,

They showed a replay from behind the goal. He saw it really late and, looks like he originally thought it was coming in the other way.
He was well beaten.
I wouldn't say he should have saved it.

We should have brought some fresh legs on 15 mins earlier.

Absolutely. Two excellent goal from two genuine world class strikers.

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Wed Sep 08, 2021 9:46 pm

Disappointing to concede so late, but I'd have taken a draw prior to KO, and England will still coast through this group.

Great play by Moder, and Lewandowski didn't score but he did get an assist.

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Wed Sep 08, 2021 9:46 pm

meanwhile Wales 0 Estonia 0 - that's a dreadful result for Wales

Yep on the balance of play a draw was fair enough.

timshorts · Post by **timshorts** » Wed Sep 08, 2021 9:49 pm

Estonia's teenage goalkeeper, meanwhile was superb.
Unfortunately, he's on arsenal's books.

A very exciting last 25 minutes, coinciding, of course, with Tyler Roberts getting substituted. **** result, but Estonia were a dive free High effort team that worked hard to pick up a point.

It was such a clean strike, and it was the swerve on the ball that took it away from the keeper. Not a chance to save it. (In other words I think we are of the same accord).

BurnleyFC · Post by **BurnleyFC** » Wed Sep 08, 2021 9:52 pm

There’s no doubt he is talented for his club, and he may well turn out to be very good for England also, but I’m not seeing in Mason Mount’s performances what Southgate seems to be seeing.

Wood struck the ball in a similar way for our second against Fulham. Impossible to save when a player cuts across the ball and it swerves away like that.

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Wed Sep 08, 2021 9:55 pm

Why is Southgate so reluctant to make subs? With such a strong bench. Bizarre.

One or two of the claptrappers have said the same but I thought it would have been very difficult to save, more so given the defender was blocking his view.

PadihamThickNeck · Post by **PadihamThickNeck** » Wed Sep 08, 2021 10:01 pm

Kane will never be at the level of Lewandowski, no body will tell me any different.

Lewandowski is so unlucky to be in the same era as Ronaldo & Messi. He gets overlooked because of how ridiculously good them two are.
