England vs Kosovo

Post by FactualFrank » Tue Sep 10, 2019 6:50 pm

England XI: Pickford, TAA, Keane, Maguire, Chilwell, Rice, Henderson, Barkley, Sancho, Sterling, Kane.

Kosovo XI: Muric, Vojvoda, Rrahmani, Aliti, Hadergjonaj, Voca, Halimi, Muslija, Celina, Berisha, Muriqi.


Looks like Chilwell in for Rose and Sancho in for Rashford.

Kosovo unbeaten for 15 games with 10 wins and 5 draws

No idea who they have played

I predict 3 - 0 to England

Nobody great. They only managed a draw against Faroe Islands, and Kosovo are 20/1 to win.

Just turned the TV on and it's great to see Roy Keane in the studio.

Let's hope keano rewards us with plenty of contraversy.

Interesting hearing Niuhu talking about Kosovo and The Serbian war of 89

Shaquiri & Xhaka would have been eligible to play for Kosovo but have obviously played for different countries due to moving there as kids.... some very good players

I said 6-0, now I'm thinking I'm way off with listening to the build up and seeing the line up.

Just hope we play full tilt for the full 90

We actually don't have any good defenders.

Going forward we have some very good players but when it comes to the defensive side of the game we have no-one at the highest level.

ITV are shocking. These ‘commentators’ are idiots. The Kosovo player was off the pitch and then came back on to fall to the ground and play act! England and the ref rightly took no notice of him.

I believe yellow cards for backroom staff was brought in this summer. The Kosovo player should’ve booked for play acting.

They're not happy about the 3rd,but England were quite entitled to carry on playing it wasn't a head injury.

Defence still looks shaky.but Sterling is tearing a strip off them.

Sterling not as selfish these days great spot and pass for Sancho to get the 4th.

The old Sterling would have wasted it...

Again feed Sancho 5-1
