Why are these @BBCSport pundits talking like the French were murdered by Paraguay?
It comes across a bit sycophantic
🇵🇾 broke the game up, committed fouls and used physicality. But what do you expect? None of the tackles were dangerous and they worked hard to limit France’s stars
@nickgoff79 I’d been thinking about this recently. And, especially for a player like Kane, who is vital to England in the big games, but arguably burns out through a tournament, could we see a future where players join the camp later on? Perhaps, after the 2nd group stage game, to keep fresh
@GeorgeElek listened to @NTT20Pod Thursday evening. Didn’t realise Masters had started. Looked for Cam Young. surprised to see he was 150/1.
Didn’t realise he was already +4.
Stuck an each way bet on, paying top 6.
Felt stupid when I checked leaderboard.
Feel good about it now.
@bendrfcsmith97 Don’t disagree McCann has to take some responsibility. After last season, we should have kicked on
However, I do think our budget is still modest (lower bottom half) in League 1
Agent fees is an indicator
Huge squad? We have only 2 strikers (one is over 40 yrs old) and only 3 CBs
@bendrfcsmith97 Think Grant’s got it right.
The money from Wembley would be nice, but not worth the risk of getting Moly, Bailey or Byrne injured.
If we had 4 or 5 more points on the board it may have been different, but having said that even with our strongest team we may have been beat anyway

On the way out on Saturday, I overhead a Rovers fan say, “After that I’ll take a point.”
Been thinking about it ever since
3-0 up at home to 19th in the league, and you’ll take a point.
Is that some weird mental gymnastics or just how low our expectations have become.
#drfc
Can’t help but think that McCann is purposefully missing the point. 3 goals should be more than enough
The problem is obviously our inability to defend. Feels like if we score 6, our defence would find a way to concede 7
Don’t blame missed chances when your defence is weak

@drfc_official@Nbyrner FFS. How can we know that we’re losing O’Riordan so early on in December, and be struggling so badly at CB that we leave it this late and end up with someone no-one else wants?
An absolute disaster of a signing.
@_SByrne thought your commentary tonight was very good, and fair.
However, found the tone and rant about Sharp incident weird.
Hills clearly steps across to barge Sharp and when he feels contact, he chucks himself down.
I know Sharp lost his head, but it was cynical from Hills.
This formation is dreadful.
We can’t bully and outscrap these teams; we don’t have it in us.
Also feel like playing without a LW has just invited Imray to storm as far forward as he likes and he’s their best player. #drfc
@Gazz_TheRover I’m guessing the back 5 was because we were really struggling to play out first half. There seemed to be 3 of theirs around Broadbent whenever he picked it up. It worked I think for 15 mins. We got out better.
Then he wanted more numbers in the final 3rd. Killed us when changed.
