The Jack Grealish (and occasionally England) Thread: It's coming home attempt 5782570

[pearcey_90]

Lingard has been bad. Can’t believe we’ve played Grealish the full 90.

Also it could come down to penalties, whety it's a shootout or during game. Should be making sure we get little things Iike that filed away.

Taking a penalty in a friendly had no relevance to a penalty shootout. It should show, if anything, that he shouldn't take a penalty if a shootout arises.

[SteveUK]

Commentators just confirming the Bamford thing.

[Baptista_8]

Must have been the Bamford lovers that were booing Watkins then

[Big Geordie]

Sounds like 'P**i bastard' to me - just been on again.

How much have you seen of Bellingham?

I’d start both, but picking one over the over because of a missed penalty is hilarious.

Not sure about the racist chanting but there was definite booing before and after he came on, whether it was because of him coming on idk.

Sounds like it might be cos they wanted Bamford called up and are booing Watkins cos he got picked instead.

I thought that but it's Patrick Bamford. The commentator just confirmed it.

Dumb *****. Ollie is better anyway

Bellingham is fantastic. Might be one tournament too soon to start him but if he does start, I think he will do really well.

I'm just being as foolish as you were. If you think going for glory rather than you, know, doing what's best for the time is fine, then awesome.

The amount of abuse and outrage for what he did is ridiculous though.

It sounded like Patrick Bamford to me, but its difficult to tell. There was definitely booing of Rashford at points during this game for some reason.

[Marc Albrighton]

We've actually got to the point where we will boo an England player because our favourite club player isn't in the squad? **** me some football fans proving if there was ever a doubt that they are some of the thickest people in society.

Imagine being that fragile you think a tongue in cheek comment is entirely serious

Also on a serious note, Bellingham is Henderson's back up 

[Darren Moores Mum]

Yessss \o/

Now only 4 nations who have a winning record against England. 

Literally the only thing to take out of that game. 

[SteveUK]

I thought it was f**king w*nker

Why? 

He pulled rank, wanted a bit of glory for himself and promptly fell flat on his face.

It's deserved.

I think they get enough practice outside of the match. Also, the two are not remotely the same situation.

Leeds fans hate us anyway, I mean Watkins isn't even in the final 26 ffs Just pathetic.

He’s the captain, and he’s grabbed the ball of someone to take it just so he could get his first goal. Proper ***** stuff from him.

Taking pens outside of a match is nothing like taking one in a match, especially at the Euros.

[martinji]

It was definitely Patrick Bamford they were chanting, heard it at least twice during the game. Never thought it sounded like anything else.

I have absolutely no problem with anybody doing what he did in a friendly. It might have, you know, gotten a monkey off his back which is affecting him when playing for England.

He looked a mug for missing it yeah, but I don't see a reason to beat him up about it.

A friendly before the tournament is probably the one time you want them to be as serious as possible

People are just having a pop at him now, it'll be forgotten about by tomorrow.

They also have a weird obsession with Brentford and have some history with Ollie. Bunch of weirdos

I know racists arn’t generally very bright but “P**i b*****d” wouldn’t make much sense would it?

I don't care who leeds fans like or dislike tbh, its probably a good sign if you're hated by some of that lot but we are watching an England game are we not? I just find it pretty amazing that people are this dim, how did they make it to adulthood?

Not surprising considering he's not played much the last 3-4 months.

One way of looking at it I suppose.

Taking pens in a friendly against Romania is nothing like taking one in a real penalty shootout.

That's nothing alike and you know it.

Certainly but it is as close as you can get without actually being there.

[ajw10]

Liverpool fans are so unbelievably defensive

It was a John Terry moment from Henderson, it's ok to admit that he was in the wrong.

[Darren Moores Mum]

Amazes me how defensive people can get over one of their players. Bizarre. 

[aggressive minor]

I love our sensitive Liverpool fans !

I would actually say taking 100 penalties in training is more important than 1 in a friendly.
