Topic: England win 2017 FIFA World Cup U20

Congratulations to the young kids. And congratulations to Dom Solanke for winning the golden boot.

He won the Golden Ball as the player of the tournament.

When you hear Dominic Solanke has been named U20 World Cup Player of the Tournament.

[Hazell]

He's not likely to see more than 4 or 5 games though unless we have a massive injury crisis. I think he needs more first team football than that.

I see your point but last season if one of Mane, Coutinho, Firmino was out, we'd tend to have issues. Adding an established player and Ojo into the squad would allow him a fair number of games, adding the increased number of European ones we'd have. I don't expect to see him much this season, though I'd be pleasantly surprised if we did.

It will be really interesting to see how Klopp will bring him on. While its true he wasn't at his best today he has some really exiting qualities that I'm sure the manager will further improve, and also make him more consistent.

Congratulations to the young kids. And congratulations to Dom Solanke for winning the golden boot.

Its not the golden boot its the best player award.

Its not the golden boot its the best player award.

Aye, the 'Golden Ball' (Player Of The Tournament)




Italy's Riccardo Orsolini won the 'Golden Boot' (Top Goalscorer)



Solanke did come joint 2nd though

[Lycan]

Its not the golden boot its the best player award.

Sorry, Golden ball not boot.

[Samie]

Bet his balls are golden too.

Surprised not to see John Terry in full kit joining the celebrations and lifting the trophy

[Oddball]

The team that goes 2nd can never take the lead in the count without a miss or save.
The pressure on a taker with the count against him is much more than when the count is neutral.

Why are people talking about ABBA like some complex biomolecular formula? Its simply flipping the order of kicks every turn.

You could though say that the pressure is on taker number 1. Nothing has been put away or missed as of that point.

Ive not seen anyone talk about it like its complicated, just not needed.

Kwalitee show - my poor mate Brian hates it when we meet up - possibly for no other reason than my appalling 'Hullo Bwian' Marsha greeting - which may be wearing thin after 15+ years

Surely the whole squad will get knighthoods from the Queens Birthday Honours list this week.
