Today’s Football 2020/21 Season

[Chris O'Connor]

I'm not pretending this was as important as a third place play-off , or even a group game with squad teams where it's advantageous to lose, but they found a way to win here when not playing well and that's never a bad habit to get in.

This will toughen them up as it's only against better teams where they can see where they're at and be properly tested.

Can’t beat an England team playing 3 right backs and with a shocking centre midfield

I know, yeah.

His record for Belgium must be terrible....let me take a look to confirm that....












....nope. He's the best Belgian manager of all time.

 

[davek]

Im very happy with the win, but I would be concerned as Belgium couldnt beat a poor England team. Wether you agree or not it was a competitive match.

It's a game behind closed doors in a pandemic. It matters not one jot. It's just another non-event.

 

[BlueStevie35]

It's a pity for you nationalists he didn't own Martinez when it mattered at the WC.

#1 international team.

Rankings mean nothing, it’s what you do on the pitch. Number 1 team in the world is the team in current possession of the World Cup, that would be France, coincidentally the team that beat Belgium in the semi of said World Cup convincingly

Try telling that to the Scotland team who got to the play offs through the nations league.

Game of football. Not the brexit vote.

Without fans it's all meaningless. We know that.

They had fans when they got to the play offs. But do agree, football should have bern suspended.

600 supporters in Windsor Park. Sounds even weirder than an empty ground

Like 5 or 6 boys singing top their voices lol

 

[Billy Dean]

...they look devoid of defensive pace. Some of those defenders look overweight and sluggish. Real quality in some positions with contrast in the back four.

Unfortunately their defence is past it now. Or retired in the case of Kompany.

...yep, City haven’t been the same since then either.

 

[Jamo Martinez]

Never thought I'd say (type) this but Kyle Walker was pretty good in the second half

 

[trueblue84]

Martinez is still riding the wave of winning the FA Cup with Wigan.
Myth of a manager.

I nearly fell off my chair when I saw he has got Shaun maloney as one of Belgium's coaches. He is an embarrassment of a manager.

this is like being the best football manager in the history of the north-east though

 

[davek]

The nationalists on here absolutley cock-a-hoop with their team downing Roberto's Belgium.

Lol.
