understand kane over vardy. sturridge has to play and vardy needs more space in behind than iceland have to offer

without getting tabloid and me just saying "he's crap", what would be the thinking in re-introducing Sterling?

Surely just the sheer pace he has verses a relative paceless Iceland defence? Can't be any other reason right?  He has a bigger relative edge as a player in this game than any other with his limited skill set.

Think this too.  Was all over the Russians at the start of that game.  Brave by Hodgson even if I think it is probably right.  It isn't like Lallana and Kane have been that great.  Think Vardy is a bit unlucky, but maybe the best time fir him is against France or Germany.

I like how you've turned a potential England win into a negative lol! I really hope Sterling has a good game tonight he gets so much abuse from England Fans that his confidence is shot too pieces. Vardy not starting makes sense be good to see him brought on if we take the lead and Iceland then have to push further up.

Disagree with Arb that Sterling specifically has a bigger relative edge in this game - some of his best games in the the last 12 months have been in the Champions League against quality teams.

Agree with Doobs that Sterling was all over Russia in the 1st half of that game. If that Sterling turns up tonight he is better than Vardy playing down the left. If the other Sterling turns up it will be scapegoat time again.

I don't get that. Take Kane, sure he has had a poor tournament based on the 150 minutes we've seen him for. Hardly a great sample size and with strikers 1 goal can see the floodgates opening. A bit like Shearer who went 2 seasons without scoring for England over 12 or 13 games before Euro96. He then was excellent.

Agree with that. It's not just England fans - he has been hammered by the media as well.

Kompany will be in demand in the media when he hangs up his boots. Completely shits all over nearly all the other pundits and embarrasses the likes of Rio, Shearer, Murphy etc

Sterlings fault for not giving their long throw specialist a dead arm in the tunnel.

What'll come first a Rooney forward pass or Kyle walker showing competence in defence?

He did give the (beautifully dandruff free) Joe one though.

If Hodgson doesn't drop that clown in the net (if we get through), then he really doesn't deserve another contract. Mistake every f-game

I seem to be in some bizzare alternate universe where Iceland are outplaying England. What's happening in the real world?
