Still can’t for the life of me understand how Southgate had the CV to become England manager. His football is turgid. With the talent England have, any half decent coach should be getting more from these players than we’ve seen today.

Because no one wanted the job, even Southgate seemed reluctant at the time. It's easy to forget that the team Hodgson/Allardyce left behind was pretty shit, and most of England's best/most exciting players have emerged over the past 6 years.

Edit - On that last point, looking at the current England set up, I'd say only Walker, Henderson, Sterling and Kane were playing a regularly and at a level good enough for England when Southgate took over.

I really hate the new Nike gimmick with the crappy collar thing.

Wtf is this? Awful 

That's clearly a knock off shirt based off the leaked designs, and it doesn't even match the leaks.

Plus the badge is the "old" badge but with the lion recoloured and prepared photoshopped out.

Ah yes, just ignore all the Spanish accounts of the exact same issues happening to Madrid fans

with the way they said goodbye / thanks to kappa yesterday and then announced this today have to guess its a contractual thing, kappa's contract finished yesterday, castore's started today

reading the announcement they have the leisure wear deal too, not sure what the wording of the luke deal was but that could be them gone

the other interesting thing for me from the announcement was the club labelled them as a British brand like they consider that to mean something significant 

They referred to Kappa as "The Italian sportswear company" or something like that when we announced them, pretty sure they've referred to the company's nationality every time we've announced a new kit manufacturer.

Ancelotti has now won a European Cup/Champions League in 5 consecutive decades. Absolutely mental.

Its a huge red flag if Wolves fans can see it and some fans with a weird irrational hatred of the manager can see it

FTFY  

Not sure criticism from our rivals whilst omitting facts that go against that criticism is exactly a red flag...

I’m assuming the mens will be the same too?

The current Men's kit isn't the same as the old Women's kit, so I think it's safe to say this won't be the Men's version.

Also, the lack of a star that @villa4europe mentioned would also indicate it's a Women's team only kit.

Yes he is. Fabrizio is the definition of a tap in merchant, done well for himself by only really mentioning anything when it's close.

This guy is more definitive on it than Fab too, stuck his neck on the line more than Fab has, he was saying Atleti was close last week and has swung 180 and been much more definitive on his expectation now too.

 

Apparently that guy is massively reliable for Atleti, so would indicate they've pulled out/Kamara chose us over Atleti.

Was going to post that he’s basically Hank Scorpio but looks like that’s ‘a thing’ already:

 

Nah, Hank Scorpio was cool and cared about his employees.

Guess what he'd been contacted about that morning...

"He does have those 2 goals to his name, both of them away"

He literally scored on his debut against Utd at VP

None of these are true though?

Don't know why you'd expect good faith posts in this thread by this point

Seems the Scum have removed this already, the facts not quite as they represented perhaps?

It seems that the issue is that there was also a camera crew there and this bombshell "exclusive" was on Channel 4 News nearly 2 years ago.

Oh god, what a pass from Buendia 

It's a bit like losing to a last minute penalty at Old Trafford, you totally expect it but its still deflating 

Always said Eurovision was totally biased and unfair 

Is there anything more British than not celebrating because they didn't understand the guy said UK in another language?

Always said Eurovision was totally unbiased and fair 

STOP THE COUNT!!!

Oh it's a heart, I was wondering why he was randomly waving a Japan flag around

Serbia was bat shit weird but can't really complain about blandness then also when that happens I guess. 

I would much rather 25 of whatever that was than all the ballads we've had
