  1. To you, to me, to you, to me. God, I hate Maguire and Stones
  2. I've always thought the English national anthem should be Land of Hope and Glory tbh. Obvs the glory bit is missing, hope has gone and we've just land left..... It's a start though!
  3. Southgate is just a bottle job. He's literally on the toilet from here on in, shitting it. I expect very little from England once we're in the knockout stages.
  4. It's a really bad look for him imo. If there is one trait a manager needs to succeed, it's integrity. He'll be back to a number 2 soon enough.
  5. Re Belgium: When your leaving players like Teilemans and Trossard on the bench for Witzel or Hazard then trajectory only ends up going one way. I actually agree with KDB but they have an imbecile of a manager in the same way England do with Southgate. Instead of looking to the future and the players that will be there, they continue to constrain themselves with favourites. Also, KDB has been shockingly bad this tournament, he's the last player that should be moaning the way he's trotted about the first couple of games.
  6. What is going on today. Seems to me a lot of the bigger reputation sides are getting some serious wake up calls. Argentina, Germany, Belgium.... who next.
  7. I think this is spot on. Southgate's biggest problem has always been bravery. Defensively minded and pragmatic in nature he's a not lose manager, instead of a lets win manager. He's got a good enough squad to challenge for the WC but he could have had a much better one if he wasn't such a nepotist and tactically limited.
  8. The Saudi's are such drama queens. Literally feigning injury at every opportunity. Come on Poland
  9. Matty Cash representing. Good lad.
  10. I don't think anyone has been overreacting in criticisms of Southgate. His managerial deficiencies have been well known for some time. Not only is he ridiculously limited as a manager he's actually compromised. His inability to drop favourites, his inability to spot the same problems that existed in the Euros with team shape etc. He's been allowed to waste some amazing football talent that has a lot more in the locker.
  11. The problem is Wagner have their own agenda, The Russian Forces theirs and the Kadrovites have theirs and they all despise each other. Wagner because they're mecenaries, the Russian forces are perceived as weak, and the Kadrovites are just clowns. It's a match made in heaven.... for Ukraine.
  12. 2 clear chances... wow. If it wasn't for Kane being poor with the header at the end, England would've walked away with 3 points. It doesn't mean England would've deserved the win either. It was a poor game that nobody really deserved to win. Neither created much and neither really looked like scoring. It was an all huff and no puff game and was imo the correct result, but each to their own.
  13. It is a great result for the US. Beat Iran and you go through. So it's all in your own hands, which isn't bad going into the final game. From an England point of view, it was abject to say the least. It's not taking anything away from the US but if England had a decent manager and played to our strengths. Had the right players on the pitch and we should be winning these games. imo.
  14. Well, they'd have won then, so yeah. But they didn't, so they didn't deserve to. So my point stands. They didn't have any other clear chances, so one shot against the bar doesn't count as a goal, a win or being more deserving of a win.
  15. Kane talks shit. It was a terribly abject performance. Foden not getting gametime in front of Mount is criminal.
  16. They didn't. They pressed well, created some openings and had a shitload of corners but they didn't deserve to win. England didn't either. It was a pretty dreadful game tbh. The US definitely didn't deserve to lose.
  17. I'd rather Wilson than Kane at this point. If your CF needs to drop into midfield there is something fundamentally wrong with the system. Especially when that CF is slow as f***.
  18. Southgate hasn't learnt a thing since the Euros with regards to this team. Such a clown. Stones and Maguire are a liability, Mount produces absolutely nothing whenever he plays. Kane is always too deep. Just dreadful.
  19. Sakha and Mount off. Grealish and Foden on
  20. Stones, Maguire and Trippier are far too slow playing the ball forward allowing the US to press easily. We just aren't trying to play between. It's slow, ponderous and England are looking shite. Mount is also a waste of a player. Get JG in there instead ffs.
  21. Wales have been horrendous. Rode their luck v the USA in the 1st half and rode their luck in this game. I think England will send them home.
  22. He can feel unlucky, and should really be in the side. But, like Argentina with Messi, Brazil and Neymar, the need to have them in the side is going to be at the detriment of both sides imo.
  23. I really like the shithouse and that is goal of the tourney so far. Stunning finish.
