Engand really good, Croatia shit, but....

The ITV team, rightly mentioned how good the attacking players are and the defence less so (not particularly this game, in general),  Branthwaite hasn't had a minute yet this international break has he?  Isn't he looking like a potentially world class centre back, to me he is a way better defender than Stones and at the same age and I liked Stones, what an i missing?

There is some serious attacking talent in that team.. - Mr Resistor October 3, 2026 7:01pm
- Another clean sheet for Pickford - Tricky Trev October 3, 2026 7:10pm
  - Lucky again tonight. But as usual the media and most Evertonians are blind to his failings. nt - JC October 3, 2026 11:14pm
    - Show me a goalie without failings - Beechside October 4, 2026 9:35am
      - For any number of reasons, I wouldn't swap Pickford for any other keeper... - Sid_Ebay October 4, 2026 3:31pm
        Agreed. Labels like "world's best" are pretty meaningless but he's in the top tier - Azul Real October 4, 2026 7:56pm
        I think there’s also an argument regarding Alison’s - NickC October 4, 2026 10:29pm
        Nt above, continued inside - NickC October 4, 2026 10:30pm
        Alisson is just an average keeper - Azul Real October 4, 2026 11:44pm
        Like Pickford was? Short arms, defence don't trust him, doesn't command his area, nutcase. nt - evercelt October 5, 2026 9:47am

He got a few minutes in the Spain game - Ste Daley* October 3, 2026 6:08pm
- Blue-tinted specs perhaps but I think he's miles better than Konsa - Azul Real October 3, 2026 7:34pm
  - He is and he also gives England a physical presence - NickC October 3, 2026 7:58pm
    - He really does seem to have the lot - Azul Real October 3, 2026 8:59pm
- Garner currently playing left back for England - Ste Daley* October 3, 2026 6:40pm

    - Yeah I thought he had a good chance of going the wc - Ste Daley* October 4, 2026 9:41am
