So far the English players have probably played the worst football any of them have ever played. The Swiss have probably been at their best. I base my opinion on, something will change, and individually we have the better players. 1 Quote
Popular Post Miller11 Posted June 30, 2024 Popular Post Posted June 30, 2024 There’s something quite unlikeable about this set up, even aside from the wretched performances. There seems to be a real arrogance amongst the players and manager - their reactions to the recent justified criticism has demonstrated it. It seems to be the modern way that managers like to stick stubbornly to their “philosophy” and changing anything is a sign of weakness, but it barely seems as if there is any real plan here in the first place. Some real cockiness in the celebrations too - it should’ve been complete and utter relief. Pretty sure Kane claimed in his post match that Bellinghams goal was “the greatest in our country’s history” which is almost as arrogant as it is delusional. Big changes are obviously needed next time out after fluking it through that tie. Obviously won’t happen though. 11 Quote

Keep playing the same way that’s stunk out the last four games, that’s all he knows. Quote

Not only delusional but bloody ignorant. Does he think we are all under 20? What a fuckwit! In his post match interview he comes out with “We done that” Do you mean “we did that”Harry? You’re the captain of England ffs so try to speak bloody English. 3 Quote
Backroom DE. Posted June 30, 2024 Backroom Posted June 30, 2024 26 minutes ago, damo100 said: Post of the day. Was very much true at the time it was posted tbf. Still is arguably. Bellingham's goal was superb but the only useful thing he did all game. Kane's was just a fortunate poacher's header which was only possible because of a miskick which led to a flick on. Both need to step up two or three gears against the Swiss. 4 Quote
Tyrone Shoelaces Posted June 30, 2024 Posted June 30, 2024 I couldn’t believe how we went right back into our shell immediately after going 2-1 up. Another goal would have killed them dead but we went back to defending our own penalty again. That won’t wash against better teams than Slovakia. 2 Quote

Admiral Nelsen Posted June 30, 2024 Posted June 30, 2024 Obviously you never wish injuries on your own player, but Trippier not being available is a blessing. A useful right back, but he has been a total waste of a shirt so far. 1 Quote

They’re a bunch of arrogant cry babies none more so than Bellingham. He views perfectly justifiable criticism as direct attacks. A far more humble approach would be to acknowledge the team and him personally were shite for 94 mins. But no just this deflect and dismiss attitude. Walker was similarly arrogant in his post match comments vs Slovenia. Southgate is just delusional. Edited June 30, 2024 by matt83 3 Quote
Giant Posted June 30, 2024 Posted June 30, 2024 Compared to the dross served up earlier, Spain v Georgia is a cracking game so far. Quote
Exiled_Rover Posted June 30, 2024 Posted June 30, 2024 That has to be offside - we had one ruled out for less than that this season. 1 Quote

Bellingham does throw himself over a lot,I don't watch Spanish football as a rule, but it does make me wonder if he's used to getting decisions at Real, that he isn't getting here. Quote
