Whoever plays needs to produce club form when they pull on the shirt, if we are to win. Too many times in the past this has not been the case, for whatever reason. That and a repeated failure to grasp opportunities when they are presented. Can we get over the line this time, history suggests not. I’ve been watching England fail since 1970, so I need a win soon, like many on here.

@drcongo if Eric eats a banana does he turn into a blue and yellow superhero soaring through the skies fueled on that self-belief?
Needs to add a bit of Snap Crackle and Pop to his game, for me.
Eric just got fried.
I won’t be trying to play them in a pop, snap, crackle formation. Horses for courses
It's a good job we didn't start on Walkers best position, or things could have got very salt and vinegary.
lads, it was a rice pun
enjoy the summer
you should be careful where you leave your banana skins fella. Ok, I too am spent …
I don't get it.
that's alright, don't worry about it
Hopefully there a bit of egg with it.
Seems an all action squad for me..pick..rams dunk..Shaw..stones..trip...walk..bell...gall..bow..eze..kane..palm...sak
Progress since 1982..although famously they were just 22...
Brook..butcher..cop...foster...franc..mill..Neal(!)..rob..woodcock
So in 82 45% of the squad contained verbs
This year's bunch contains 53%
Trent did seem to dry up as discussions wore on.
Euro 96...see..platt..coin..shear..flower knapp..bell..man..stone..foul..walk
48%
There is something going on here
1966
Bank stile ball greave con spring arm burn Peter flower hunt pain call hunt
64%!
I've just discovered the secret of tournament success!

1970
Bank..coop..mull...ball...Peter..step..wright stile..hunt..bell..clerk
50% qf exit
Looks like a QF exit again this year then.
Aye, or semis. Which scarily complements the odds which have qf/semi exit given equal most likely for England
Conclusion: verbs in surnames are the best indicator of how well England will fare in a major football competition
Don't get it?
An ethical and legal bank account, any bank account suffices Mr ed
@Kim_il_Swan are you going to any Scotland games in Deutschland?
Best to stay at home and not bother going at all. I reckon I could pick a team from the Gasroom that could beat Iceland.
lol...and so it begins
what would be your XI @Blue_since_1990 ?
2020(plus 1)
Stone..pick..chill..code..jam..shaw..stone...trip..walk..bell..mount..fill...kane..ford..sack
65% - reached finals of euros.
this is getting ridiculous
I would definitely have @Malone and @micra in the X1, they are a trusted pair of gasroomers and won’t let us down.
Would you be able to accommodate both @drcongo and @eric_plant ?
