International Football - England - Euros - World Cup Etc
Seems to me Foden was raised to do tippy passes, but England don’t play like that. Tedious sideways passes maybe but not the higher intensity linking up and carving out an opportunity passing around the box that Man City did when they were in their prime. They had a number of players that could link up and complement each other like Silva, the other Silva, De Bruyne etc in their peak. Hard to do without critical mass of top players to complement.

Bet he'll be glad to be back behind Murillo and Milenkovic after playing behind Faes tonight. Belgium must have a serious dearth of good centre halves if he starts for them.

Hip injury apparently. Hopefully nothing major.

FFS. He flies around the world to face players that spend the rest of their lives playing on public parks, its no wonder this sort of thing happens.
Please don’t be serious. Limping as he comes off the pitch here.

We did know all this before we signed him. Fingers crossed he's not out for long. Bit T to step up to the plate on Saturday then.

Looks like a dead leg, and sometimes you just can’t run them off when the blood isn’t flowing properly.
Should be ok, generally after a few days physio

Only need a couple more and these premature CL celebrations could start to look rather silly.

Someone who was at the match has posted saying he thinks lower back muscle rather than dead leg. Says they sprayed Wood with Deep Heat or whatever but he couldn't run it off.

Regardless well done to him because NZ have just qualified for the finals, that should be a highlight of his career, will spur him on to have a good season next year hopefully.
Seemed to be joining in the celebrations at the end OK.
