Would have taken a 2 all draw before the game if we didn't blow a 2 goal lead 2nd half we were outplayed our best chance of 2nd half was the pen outside that was all Mexico probably lucky not to lose

Cumdog.

Won't get a look in while in India

 

[FFC Mariner]

Decent result against a good side

 

[Jerem]

Ryan needs to be dropped, clear example why EPL is a distant memory. Hate that even in friendlies Arnold doesn’t use his bench.

 

[Jerem]

Better still give Mackenzie Arnold a crack

He just ain't a confident sweeper keeper any more.

Yes, there were a couple of hesitations that ended badly.

 

[true believer]

Who is your backup to duke? Gotta try people out

borello , alou even wood

no, not squandering a lead like that ! it's unacceptable

 

[Tevor]

I don’t rate Wood

I've been concerned for Maty for a while, but I'd call him responsible for both goals today.

Time for someone else to get a go.

 

[booney]

He could have come out for the first one but he would have had to be sure he did not foul the opponent.Unfortunately Burgess did( he otherwise had a good game).I think calling that goal on Maty is a bit harsh.

However he certainly bears fault for the second goal.He may have called but then did not come.I could not see why big Harry did not head the ball if Maty had not called him off ( he looked like he ducked).Unfortunately Matty was caught out by the Mexican forward who took his chance well.

Not putting either on Maty. Burgess, if he was going to challenge needed to do it when he was level, not behind. Second goal from the side looks like Harry realises too late that he isn't going to get it and ducks his head. By that time too late for Maty to come any further. I didn't see or hear a call from Maty but maybe there was one from the crowd.

Either way I think Harry will be better for playing but he needs to get playing regularly again. Rowles did okay at LB against a very speedy opponent but we need to have a specialist LB there, Bos maybe but he would have been further up the field.

2nd was all Souttar

 

[Allreet?]

No way. Souttar acted like (he thought he was) called out of it. Might have been a crowd call.

Maty 100% has to come for the first goal. What was he doing on his line in the first place? The spot is the centre of the keeper's universe.

I don’t rate Wood

i don't rate agostino and woods better than him

 

[Allreet?]

i don't rate agostino and woods better than him

I never rated D'Agostino much, but apparently he's done well in Norway.

 

[booney]

Definitely Gauci,Ashley Maynard-Brewer or Glover need to be blooded.

 

[Melange]

f**k Moi, you were building a good case till you mentioned Wood. The new George Blackwood

 

[pjennings]

Definitely Gauci,Ashley Maynard-Brewer or Glover need to be blooded.
