Upside Down Posted July 2, 2024 Share Posted July 2, 2024 That save from the Turkiye keeper at the end was unbelievable. Worthy of winning the game. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, great save by the Turkish keeper but Banks save was much lower and he still got a strong hand to it to deflect up and away. The whole incident was perfection, pass, cross, header and save all perfect and watched on a colour TV which my Dad had got especially for the WC. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly think every game I've watched this tournament has been enjoyable except the England ones. France have been super dull.... All the neutrals won't be backing England or France.

Are commentators on BBC and ITV pronouncing the team Turkey or Turkiye? My US coverage, with English commentators, has been saying Turkiye (Turk-i-ye). I've always said Turkey, like the bird.

I should have said nearly as good as Banks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roverstdt Posted July 3, 2024 Share Posted July 3, 2024 Big game up against the Swiss luckily while The team is playing very well Murat Yakin is an awful manager who isn’t particularly well liked in the squad. we need to change drastically I would go and change a formation pickford walker stones konsa TAA Mainoo Bellingham Rice Saka Foden Kane 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joey_big_nose Posted July 4, 2024 Share Posted July 4, 2024 On changing the system to 343 everyone saying Southgate wont do it but isnt that exactly what we did in the last Euros? Played 4 at the back in the Groups then switched to 343 for the knockouts starting with Germany? So Southgate has form on it. And with Switzerland being so accomplished with 343 and how we struggled against Denmarks 343 in the group a couple of weeks ago it seems likely to me.

I think calling it 3-4-3 is being kind to Southgate. It was more 5-4-1 or 5-2-2-1 if we're putting a positive spin on it, there were 7 defensive players and 3 forwards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched it live and when Pele headed the ball I immediately thought “ That’s a goal “ . How Banks got down to the ball is amazing but how he managed to flick it up and away from the goal ? I still don’t know how he did it ! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It did biunce up some and Pele was a lot further away. So both saves are closer to each other than I thought. What ever it was an excellent save. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilsdenrover Posted July 5, 2024 Share Posted July 5, 2024 (edited) How was that Spanish handball any different to some of the ones that have resulted in penalties being given/goals disallowed? I don’t think it should have been given but the inconsistency is baffling. Edited July 5, 2024 by wilsdenrover 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
