every fecking shot back into the centre of the penalty area even when trajectory of said shot would make it easier to get away from goal. Some skill, possibly not a desirable one in England's No 1

I appreciate he may be left handed but that attempt at a save for the goal was well below average.Originally Posted by Luis Anaconda
And not gathering the ball properly when it was kicked off the line( I understand it my have been a free kick, but he never had the ball secured).
He's just not that good.
“Other clubs never came into my thoughts once I knew Arsenal wanted to sign me.”
He's still learning, talented but he has an obvious weakness (although I think it might be harsh to blame him for the goal). Funnily enough some 'tards on here thought we should have spunked 30 million on him last summerI appreciate he may be left handed but that attempt at a save for the goal was well below average.

I think it was a good finish by Yanuzeye, but can't help feeling that Pickford would have had a better chance if he'd have led with his right hand.
You're right, he's only young.
Currently, he's no better (or worse) than, say, Sir Chesney.

On an entirely neutral level it was quite alarming to see how poor the second string were last evening.I appreciate he may be left handed but that attempt at a save for the goal was well below average.

Of course players cannot just turn it on and off at the drop of a hat, as such, however none really did much to push their case for selection. Was I correct when I heard Trent Darby getting MOTM?
Thought the Belgies was clearly much better.
Perhaps this was Gareth's master plan.
Eric Dier ffs - Eric Dier
Indeed it is quite a challenge and achievement to make Jordan Henderson appear good but Dier carried this off with aplomb.
There was one moment second half when Rose took a clever quick free into Danny who controlled it first time, into the upper tier it has to be said but still. I smiled, because he is our Danny.
I’m increasingly starting to believe that the whole purpose of last night was to make the first team feel better about themselves. Shrood tactics if so.
My favourite bit is England fans saying ‘We’ll be back with our first team whilst apparently failing to note that Belgium left Hazard and De Bruyne on the bench
Careful, our genius, foreign ex-manager was only just the other day waxing prophetic on Dier. I must say, I have never seen anything from the lad that makes me think he is anything other than average on his best days when played in the correct position.
I like Pickford, does some things very well and the things he doesn't seem very correctable. Dangerous game slating young keepers, they have a tendency to get better with age.
Because he is properly shít, la. Peter Shilton must be turning in his grave.
But anyway, surely the best thing last night was watching Phil Jones careering around the pitch randomly clattering into people like a pinball with Down’s Syndrome? Lord, how I laughed.
