At least the paint is drying!

Sorting some decorating out today and have the England game on in the background…
Thankfully, the changing colour of the new paint as it slowly dries is keeping me entertained!

It confuses me so much.
They should really be so much better.
When you look at how good we look with our limited squad they should really be better.

Didn't see their game yesterday.
But winning 2-0 at home to Andorra and 1-0 away is not good enough for a team with the quality they have.
I'm not like others on here in the sense that I obviously support Wales but also want to see England, Scotland and Northern Ireland do well.
I thought it was a mistake for them to go with Tuchel over a British manager. I don't know if Eddie Howe wanted the job but he was the obvious choice. Tuchel could prove me wrong but I don't see them winning the World Cup with a non-British manager.
Get the feeling he's probably taken Newcastle as far as he can by winning a trophy and getting them in the Champions League, so England would be mad to not go for Howe next time.

Problem is they always qualify with easy teams like maldova in group..... so games like yesterday get forgotten very quickly because qualification is the aim of the game... but your right we look ten times better than them guess we'll see how good in October when we play them.

It’s the way we play that is impressive. Freedom to make mistakes and not be criticised. I think that’s why they are so bad, because of the fear.
