Balls of steel from Dier because he’s been terrible this World Cup and was particularly bad when he came on.
To step up to take a pen under those circumstances and under that pressure and score it shows that this lad has character. Delighted for him because he’d have been murdered by the press if he missed.

He went the right way for all of them didn't he?

That's harsh. He's played in a scratch side and come on when we were on the back foot.

Neymar is such a grade a uberclam it's hard to compare him to anyone. Even Ronnie seems like a nice guy compared to him. Brazil are toss.

Well i think that Southgate needs to grasp the nettle and drop Sterling, the guy's confidence is shot and it's like playing with ten men.

At one stage, he had a pass completion rate of 28%. He was brought on to keep it tight and simple, not give the ball away.
Even for Walker’s brain fart, he got a ball, dallied on it despite having a chance to get it forward and knocked a terrible negative pass to Walker who proceeded to do what Walker does.
Dier was terrible and I don’t like saying that because I like the lad. But he showed some character with the penalty.

He's got to play Rashford imo. Of Sterling, Vardy and Rashford, Rashford offers the most. Vardy was rubbish off the bench and bottled the shootout, Rashford has the b0llocks to take one and deserves to start next game.

Yeah well Vardy is a very limited player, but Sterling does not look like scoring and he struggled to trap the ball, or make a five yard pass today.

I was amazed Vardy didn’t take one but Dier said Southgate selected the five takers.

Both Sterling and Lingard were utter brick. Sterling is carried at Emirates Marketing Project and Lingard is very hot and cold. What Rashford has to do to start I don't know.
Fair enough -- but you would have thought if Vardy wanted it, he'd have taken one ahead of Dier or Trippier. Worked out well though, so phuck it!
I could understand it if he were defensively suspect, but he chased down as much as Sterling and a fudgepile more than Vardy.
I'm immensely proud that our players stood up and took them - says a lot about our team ethic.Fair enough -- but you would have thought if Vardy wanted it, he'd have taken one ahead of Dier or Trippier. Worked out well though, so phuck it!

I don't think that is fair. He was no worse than the players around him whilst he was on the pitch. He was obviously brought on to see out the ninety but are probably not what you want when you need an extra time goal, especially when the rest of the team are dead on their legs and your only world class player is carrying a knock. We should reserve judgement until he gets a chance to start in the first team.
Balls of steel to take the penalty.
