If a star player left the English squad because he'd make more money playing for another country ye'd all be burning down his house. He'd be vilified. Don't pretend otherwise. The media would fucking crucify him. Rightly so.

It's the rules that are shit.

l.q.navarro.

Yeah, I considered taking that line with the post but decided to focus on a key position that I think we lack.

I'm a traditionalist and it's nice to see a country with a proper midfield string puller like Olmo win it.

On an aside, i'm more fucked off that I fell asleep and missed most of the game than the result. I'm my defence we got up at 4.15am to take the dog out to a rabbit hotspot. She didn't catch any but had a great time.

If he was born and raised, possibly.

But Rice sounds like he’s 100% cocksrknee.

Its not like some 100% paddy has turned his back on the counyry like; Ronnie Whelan, Andy Townsend, John Aldrigde, Jason McAteer or Tony Cascarino 😂😂 Bi Gorroah

otis

Got fucked lads, how it goes

That's the nub. They're not a great crop !
At a push. Bellingham + Foden are class acts. They've both overall been poor.
Apart from Stones, our defence is shit.

And again, you're missing the point. It's not about English born lads with Irish Dads (Kane) or Bellingham (Mam) choosing England, that's grand. It's cunts that play for Ireland for 7 years including full internationals, singing 'Ooh ahh, up the Ra!' on his Insta, every social media post Irish this, Irish that and then just fuck off just for money. He's a shitbag and he'll win nothing and I'll be there to celebrate his every failure.

Not that I have strong feelings on it 😉

This, this is why no-one likes ye.

And why everyone laughs at ye bitterness.

Raposa

Nah, they don't, ye might, and I'm not bitter, I'm angry. He's a cunt.

Take him out of the squad and I'd wish ye well. Despite that shit attitude and bitterness ye hold. 😉

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Spain deserved it, better technically but when Palmer equalised I honestly thought we’d go on to win it.
Walker’s finished, walkabouts for both their goals.
Time to think about Southgates successor and doing away with Kane and blooding the next crop a la Palmer et al.

Young_Marxist_at_Tescos

Raposa Agree about Walker. Spain just seemed a fraction smarter, particularly second half. Found more space and used it better.

Absolutely class delivery by Cucurella for the winner.

It's got to be Frank Lampard hasn't it? 🫣

Foxy_Dread

Young_Marxist_at_Tescos Guehl allowed the goalscorer to make the first move. Possibly being harsh.

Raposa

Mega_Armageddon_Chickens
Aye, unbelievably his name has been mentioned.
As has Lee Carsley the U21 manager.
No obvious English candidate other than perhaps Eddie Howe.

Raposa

Foxy_Dread
You’re right although it’s always handy if the move or cross can be stopped at source.
Walker is ace when he bombs forward but defensively he’s been found wanting on quite a few occasions during the tournament.
The better teams will generally exploit that as was the case last night.

Young_Marxist_at_Tescos

Foxy_Dread Don’t disagree, but it was one of those deliveries that is usually finished either by the attacker, or the hapless defender with an o.g.

YoungParisian_inExile

Im not sure who would have done better than Walker. Williams and Yamal were excellent.
Agree with Foxy … for all the bullshit about this being a great team there’s still no obvious gameplan , style of play . Spains midfield was very good , even the lad who came on for Rodri controlled the game.
Unlucky England, plucky, good game, but ultimately outplayed by the best team in the tournament

Under-the-ground

Kane looked absolutely fucked as well. He hardly moved.
I think give the captain to Bellingham. I thought we did ok . I thought walker was ok, shaw was good. Two central defenders were pretty solid. But saka, foden, palmer & Bellingham were the standouts for me

Potter or the guy at Newcastle. Fat Frank can do one . He makes my shit itch

Under-the-ground

Also I think it is time for Southgate to have a rest, but time will judge him well I reckon. He built an actual team that garnered a bit of respect again. Kane is a good captain as well.
The complete shambles he inherited were a complete joke. Overpaid arseholes that certainly weren’t a team. So he is ok in my book.

Mitaman

Under-the-ground All fair comments. He’s put us in a better place from what went before him.
