Perhaps Ghana have a history of choosing ends rather than choosing to kick off?

CHAT GBT doesnt know of any supertitions etc and says lump on Ghana.

Now its England 1/2 and Ghana 6/4.

By:
a bet for naive degens.

By:
According to AI, Ghana do not prefer to kick off when winning the toss, England do.
|
|
By:
Maybe. Without knowing what the prices are though, not many people would be pricing it up at those prices.
|
|
By:
So no matter who wins the toss, England kick off first?
|
|
By:
be wary of headwinds, plans change.

By:
Captain gets to choose, Kane wins the toss he normally decides to kick off first, Ghana captain wins the toss he normally chooses which way to play, leaving England to kick off, doesnt have to though!!

Back Ghana more draw small win,then cash out when you hit a profit, 0r they go 1 up, then back England at a decent price, if you know you know what if England score 1st? |

By:
7/4 was massive
|
|
By:
If England score first, his cash out will be 10p and 2p!
|
|
By:
105% profit half time , played well Ghana, England not good at all so far, but it’s harder to predict from now on, but the odds at start were false getting more the true odds now, as I said if you know you know

Bookies don't make a book based on subjectivity.
Engerland's record against african sides suggest they deserved to be odds on. Ghana have parked the bus accordingly. Tuchel will switch things up. |

Tuchel making the substitutions as late as possible, saving some of the better and creative players on the bench for later in the tournament

I rarely watch it and din't last the whole game. In the post
match interview Kane sounded like a gangsta innit. |

By:
0 - 0…..
Don’t try and hide it was dreadful tbh. A few hapless headless chickens running around…..big bell…..ingham ain’t world class,passed a few into no man’s land…..should be running and cutting defence ….. Just to add Scotland are heading home after tonight’s game……virtually impossible to get out result here. |
|
By:
"Average Sh1te got no chance against France, Spain, Portugal, or the Argies" Post your large lay when we play 'em.
|
|
By:
Was poor on the night can't sugar coat it. A fit Saka now looking vital to our chances. And maybe Rogers.
|
|
By:
I think Scotland are coming home too. A respectable score would be a 3-0 win for Brazil.

at 7/1 cud be daves biggest lay ever...no lay alluded to yet like.

Any side is entitled to struggle against low blocks, it's the hardest thing to break through in the game, if Spain and Portugal with their superior technical players can't break down the might of Cape Verde and Congo, we are every bit entitled to struggle against Ghana.

The trouble is we are a team of runners. With no creatives.
The manager is at fault, he played Anderson 5 yards off of centre halves who can themselves carry the ball forwards. He had no need to play him knowing that they’d be that defensive. He’s left a player here who can hit the passes that he wants (the early ball) in Warthon of Palace. Also a player in Palmer who can create from nothing, be it a dummy to create space or from having a shot creating something from the keeper not catching. The only player who’s looked like he has an edge is Sakka. It’s the same old where is Kane to feed it too up top and last night we saw the hands in the air and egos surfacing. Too many on the pitch pointing where the ball should go instead of playing it and moving. Anderson is over rated in the extreme, not his fault, Gordon has the look of a sulker who believes he’s better than he is which is is a one trick pony, totally predictable and why he was marked out of it. Bellingham wouldn’t be anywhere near my team, he gave the goal away trying to get a foul in the first game. That was almost replicated by EZE last night trying to get a foul when they broke and shoulda had a penalty. He’s a liability. Not a lot to be positive about. Well Spence has surprised me a lot and he’d be in to overlap with Sakka. We miss Shaw on the left and slab at set pieces. But who wants goals from them! ![]() |

plenty of good stuff there dela but although I am a big fan of Palmer he's been rubbish for months. Gordon and Mandueke not good enough. The latter looks like he can only shoot by sidefooting the ball. Disagree with Jude apart from Rice our best player. But he needs better to play with. Saka and Rogers must play big parts.

You could substitute Palmer for another player out there last night and the result would have been the same, we lack technical excellence, we still haven't seen the like of Gascoigne in this country from 35 years ago, for all of Palmer's nice stuff, it would be primarily seen in an open game with "space" around him or when he can counter attack like the PSG game.
You're not allowed to take people on and beat them anymore unless it's down the flanks so you are reliant on quick passing and moving, receiving the ball and popping it off whilst under pressure, which unless you are Spain circa 2010, the greatest technical national team to ever play the game, then you are up against it, particularly in you are English. Again, if Spain can struggle against Cape Verde, we are fully entitled too also. |

By:
You’re focusing on one player, we don’t have a natural left sided player playing, that down to the manager.
Bellingham wants to be everywhere, Kane is never there and the likes of Palmer gives you something that the others apart from Sakka don’t have. The ability to make something happen. Anderson was playing like Rice when Arsenal want to defend, right in front of his centre halves! Against a team that’s parked the bus! Jordan is on there talking of Manduke on the left, that’s not his position. Yet another tournament playing players out of position. |

That’s old school England style as heard in the John Barnes rap, “Gotta get by them, down the line and around the back….” It’s ancient! Palmer allows you someone who can attack down the middle, I can’t see anyone in the squad who can play in those tight spaces. Again it’s not about one player, the buck stops with the manager and his selections. Even his subs are like for like, one runner for another. |
