Djed Spence

Or maybe, just maybe, he is a really good footballer.

I think he's good yeah, but if you can breathe you can get a game at this World Cup.

I got 20 minutes for Scotland the other night.

He's better defensively that O'Reilly

The weird thing was that the commentators were saying Spence is coming central as an issue
It’s literally what OReilly did and apparently we wer better
What was better was the wide players

It was Shearer,..his bias knows no bounds. bit like Keown, they think they’re being clever but it’s so obvious.. tinkled off that Hall wasn’t selected ahead of him.

 

[Muttley]

Spence was poor tonight in my opinion. He's not a LB and it showed in so many ways. O'Reilly came on and showed Spence up in my opinion.

At the very least you would like to think people would be proud of a club rep getting a cap. Football support has changed beyond recognition in that respect

That’s obviously what Tuchel had instructed him to do.

I thought Spence was okay. Certainly not the worst player in the England team. Clearly and understandably he had been instructed to come inside Gordon rather than to overlap. I think Shearer focused on him to avoid having to criticise the rather hopeless Anthony Gordon - didn't hear similar complaints about James on the right. As for O'Reilly, he certainly was more noticeable in attack but then the one thing he didn't really do was play left back something which I thought he was poor at in the Croatia game.

Let's just hope consent was obtained from Gordon first.

That's enough Partey politics ...

Yet they got two chances from the right after the change, they hadn’t had a sniff earlier in the game.

The switch to O'Reilly was clearly an attempt to go and win the game whereas Spence started to nullify Ghana's pace in attack. If we had been winning, I doubt Spence would have been subbed.

 

[Bullet]

Agree, as soon as Spence went off, Ghana had some good breaks down their right. And Konsa should have been sent off for lunging in and not touching the ball, i.e. a penalty
