You are right, Baines is not terrible, but he is just your standard English left back-he reminds me of Warnock with a decent cross. Ashley Cole & Kieran Gibbs are both superior.PrideOfTheMidlands wrote:Baines isn't awful, he's definately our best LB

Yes, Baines got a fortuitous corner after a dreadfully heavy touch and then Cahill put a free header right at the keeper.PrideOfTheMidlands wrote:Both Cahill and baines just showed their attacking prowessMoriarty wrote:You are right, Baines is not terrible, but he is just your standard English left back-he reminds me of Warnock with a decent cross.

No, he just drilled a ball into space and the Brazilian chap slipped and miscued it out of bounds.PrideOfTheMidlands wrote:he beat two men with that touchMoriarty wrote:Yes, Baines got a fortuitous corner after a dreadfully heavy touch and then Cahill put a free header right at the keeper.
Lampard succeeding where Gerrard failed just a minute ago.

Sad that he'll probably be a GOAT free transfer for someone.

Dani Alves, Dante, Luiz, Adriano, Oscar, Ronaldinho, Lucas, Neymar? You wouldn't have heard of them?

Such attacking prowess from Baines. Swivel swivel, drop to the floor and lose the ball. Rinse and repeat.

maybe not Dante, but I take your point, I shouldve said the subs (Jean, Fred etc. )Yrael wrote:PrideOfTheMidlands wrote:I would'nt have heard of 95% of this brazilian team if i didn't play FUT

Those rankings are about as accurate as the player ratings on the FIFA video games. They're meaningless, especially when it comes to evaluating friendlies.
Here are the real rankings:
1. Spain
2. Everybody else

there is nothing special about Laighton Baines, he can strike a dead ball and is adequate defensively and going forward
but since he is English you all talk about how amazing he is

I never said he didn't play well. I just said he isn't anything special.

Glen Johnson does brilliantly to head a rolling ball away, and he has hurt himself. What a gladiator.

marvellous player
if every England player put in the same amount of effort as Glen then England would be a half decent team
