C'mon Georgia!

Exactly, and the players make up the team.. They are accountable, the manager relies on them to perform.

The best manager in the world won't win with players who are not performing. Perhaps the "problem" is not the manager?

A few accolades won by the players that make up this squad last season:

- European Golden boot winner
- Premier League Player of the year
- La Liga player of the year
- Premier League top G+A
- Premier League Top assister (1 behind the top G+A)
- 3 Premier League winners
- 2 Premier League runners up
- La Liga + UCL winner

It ain't the players.

My prediction is 2-1 to Spain


but I do want Georgia to win

 

[nemtizz]

Looked great against their manager too

Massive fan of the "bald ****" shout

but I do want Georgia to win

I think Spain will do them pretty comfortably to be honest, they'll control Georgia much better than Portugal did

Saka did all that and managed to play some good crosses and passes which Palmer didn't. I was expecting much more from him considering the hype.

Then Saka should be playing at the same time as Palmer and Foden shouldn't be anywhere near the wide positions.

 

[JamesH85]

Immediately Spain look 10x better than England.

Problem is Saka and Palmer both play the same position

Immediately Spain look 10x better than England.

So do Georgia!

I just want France to win

(I have them in the sweepstake)

Saka is a left back now no?

I disagree totally.

That list of player accolades only strengthens my argument.

They won’t be playing the b-team like Portugal did

Err, it only strengthens the argument against your point.

 

[Psycho Ned]

Immediately Spain look 10x better than England.

Shown more attacking intent in 3 minutes than we have in 2024.

Problem is Saka and Palmer both play the same position

Palmer should be used as a box to box attacking midfielder, not a winger

 

[bingham67]

Getting ripped a new one if we play Spain.

Now I haven't watched Chelsea much, but all of the highlights I've seen of goal involvement from Palmer have been from him on the left.

 

[Mark1989]

Malt vinegar you must have been on the malt tonight is all I can assume

 

[uscool]

Getting ripped a new one if we play Spain.

Expecting that from Switzerland
