    Just watching MotD.... how the bloody hell Tillermans got away with that challenge on Calum Wilson is an enigma wrapped up in a mystery. Who was the VAR? Ray Charles?

    It was a shocking day for refereeing, particularly the VARs.

    Reminiscent of the Cup Final at times... I feel a bit sorry for Kosovo but England, after the charitable start, have been ruthless.

    5-3.... very sloppy from England. Quite pathetic defensively. Both sides, England in particular.

    Tried to watch it, but became really bored with all the backwards passing.

    Often to the opposite side !

    Sure the attack is exciting albeit against weak defenders but we do need to cut out basic errors .

    Bit like WFC!!

    I see Andy Hunter Guardian) referred to Sancho as a Watford academy graduate. At least he remembered where Sancho started. But I thought he was 'lifted ' from WFC. to the Etihad franchise.

    That was the reason they were investigated, paid £200k to an "Agent" and bribed the family to get I'm to Man City and then left him to rot
    The "top six teams with the possible exception of Spurs seems to grab all the promising youngsters just to prevent the rest of the Premier league utilising them

    Just read that Ajax have only been allocated a maximum of 833 tickets for the Champions League game at Stamford Bridge. Apparently a decision made by local authorities in London due to 'irregularities' with Ajax supporters in Europe in general and in Great Britain in particular. As if British fans (in particular Chelsea) have been angels in the past when visiting Europe ! The original idea was to ban all Ajax fans from matches in GB - hopefully Ajax will now retaliate and make sure that Chelsea get not one ticket more than that for the return.

    Liverpool 2-1 up v Newcastle but they also should have had a penalty.

    The Geordies do seem to have VAR on their side !!

    Bet Dave cannot believe it- not great news for us though.

    Mind you Man City will get a decision or two...
