Euro 2024 - Inc Southgate resignation

[Phall Throw]

"We seem to have an England v Bosnia thread but not an actual Euro 2024 thread so here it is So, do we realistically think England can win it? On paper we obviously have a very talented squad but I just don't see us going all the way. For me it's ""same old"" when it comes to England. Breeze the group, favourable draw in last 16 and win then up against far superior opposition in the QFs and out. At best I can see us at the SF stage before being beaten again. Winners for me: France, Portugal, Spain Dark horses: Germany - even though it's a home tournament they've been in a consolidation period, could go close Biggest flops: Scotland - no goals scored Top goalscorer: Mbappe I'm just hoping it's a decent tournament with plenty of decent games that's not ruined by VAR (are they using it?) consolidation period but could go close"

"Gareth Southgate is to England as was Roberto Martinez was to Belgium Didn’t play a single side that won their group until the final Blokes an absolute fraud and belongs in a library but doubt he’d be any good at that job either Promised to pick players on form, but only ever gave significant game time to the big club players or players that played for clubs that he played for, in fact Pickford is the only player outside those clubs that ever got selected Up their with Graham Taylor as the worst England manager of all time in my opinion, the stats may say otherwise, but if you understand football and what he had at his disposal then you’d agree"

"I think everyone that has a clue about football, knows the best starting line-up for that England squad. Well except Southgate. When asked why they failed to beat Denmark, he answered, with a straight face, the lack of the option of Kalvin Philips!"

LOAD OF OLD cսnt

[El Scorchio]

Fucking gutting. Talent wise we are there. Tactically we are miles off. Genuinely I‚Äôd give Klopp whatever he wants to take charge of this team. That utter cսnt would win us the World Cup in 2026 with the players we have.

*three team pub league. apologies to Dortmund?üòÇ*

[Takashi Miike]

"nychammer 2:15 Mon Jul 15 he scored that many goals in a two team pub league. a slightly bigger version of the SPL. he's played in thiswithdrawn, dropping deep, infuriating fucking style for years. it isn't just this tournament, yet the prick in charge kept him captain and a must start"

[joyo]

Gutted but proud we got to final Great atmosphere in my local the Crumpled Horn

[pdcwhu]

Rice didn't put his head through that chance

[Sydney_Iron]

"zico 1:43 Mon Jul 15 England a model of consistency as always? Same old England, picking their best players despite them not being match fit. How many times have we seen this and it never pays off, FFS, The thing I really want from our next coach is to realize that nobody is undroppable"

[nychammer]

"Kane scored 40 goals for Bayern. On paper, Kane is not the problem, its playing him him a role that does not suit him. Southgate is the problem, hopefully not for much longer. And please dont knight the cսnt."

[Takashi Miike]

"just heard Kane saying he's looking forward to the world cup games, it gets worse"

[aldgate]

Almost Allardyce like with all that long ball hoofing from the keeper. Baffling way to play with the talent we have

[Takashi Miike]

for Kane to play dogshit in seven consecutive games is a major feat

[arsene york-hunt]

It was amazing how similar that was to watching Moyesball but without the anxiety.

[Fauxstralian]

"Spain comfortably the better team. Quicker, sharper & more positive Impressed with Williams , surprised if teams other than Barcelona aren’t trying to sign him Palmer had to start as easily Englands most dangerous player. Was always going to start Kane but he stunk the place out again Shame for Bowen, had to sit and watch Saka when would have been better going forward & definitely helping deal with Williams going the other way. Very talented group misused by the average Southgate Expect he will carry on to the 2026 WC."

[Gaffer58]

"I would like to thank Sky TV and all those people who subscribe, because without them the premiership would not be “ the best league in the world” and all these skilful, talented foreigners would not be over here, meaning we’d have to watch 2nd rate British players hoofing it long, not been able to pass to feet and useless British managers pretending they were tactical geniuses."

[Come On You Irons]

The better team on the night to win the final and the best team of the tournament won the tournament. Football justice. It would have been a travesty had England burgled that tournament.

[riosleftsock]

"Not sure how we got to the final, we didn't look great until we played the semi. The squad is good enough to win, but are so scared to actually play, we did for about 15 mins in the second half and looked excellent. Kane is dogshit, Rice should have been subbed. Bellingham, Foden, Guehi, and Palmer are excellent and can win games. Walker decided 2nd half to play more narrow for some reason and was nowhere near Williams for most of it."

[zico]

Can't believe Southgate has just said that Kane coming into the tournament was short of game time and wasn't it top condition and they were waiting for him to find his sharpness. Then why play him?

[goose]

Stewie - only a racist will be brave enough to mention it.

[bell]

The only person who thought Trippier and Gallagher on with five minutes left was David Moyes. Such turgid shit.

[RootsRadical]

"Listening to the Lineker, Shearer & co bemoaning the low block and wanting more an England manager. ""Careful what you wish for"""

[cholo]

"England crying out for a dynamic, attacking manager who knows how to press and play on the front foot. We've got the players. Just need someone brave enough."

[zebthecat]

Any Old Iron 1:10 Mon Jul 15 It certainly appears so. Football's Jonah. The best team won and both of their goals were things of beauty. Their midfield press and posession with intent are horrible to play against.
