Totally agree, everyone has a different opinion. However, when someone is gifted possibly the most talented individual in English football (certainly in the 55 years I have attended, not just watched, football) and says he can't do this or do that, then he should be called out. Foden is head and shoulders the most talented player, forget Bellingham and Sake and bloody Rashford, that we have seen in all that time.
It just shows waistcoats' limitations by saying he doesn't play this or that position for City. That's a copout and exposed by Guardiola. Chances are he's back on the bench to allow Saka and Plodder to return next game. For me, Waistcoat is totally and utterly clueless and the sooner he fucks off the better.

I don’t think we have better players than before, they are just more tactically aware because of Pep.

We are winning practically every game.

I know you and others think you can do better but let’s be serious , Southgate has blooded a young cohesive squad of players that go out there and do the buisness. I’ve been well proud of England for many years now. I know I’m in a minority on here and that’s fine. But I see no harm in being positive when it comes to supporting England.

We’re through out of our group and I’m happy with that. Bring on the Euros.

Go team, go team, ra, ra, ra.

We will get to the quarters and possibly the semis and soon as we come up across a half decent team, your hero will be found out yet again and we will be out rince repeat. Its weird that you can't see his obvious failings and limitations. But you don't think he's good enough for West Ham.
 
Can't see there being any debutants at this tournament sadly. Makes it really boring with no underdogs to root for or national history being made when they play their first game.

I see the mighty Armenia upset the Welsh applecart. England struggling against poor international sides and the other home nations looking crap too.

Wales have been beaten at home by Armenia and drawn away. I don't think they deserve to qualify, and if they don't will save them further embarrassment of spankings off proper teams.

I only want them to qualify because it will make peoffrey happy and he will post us pics of far off exotic places and plates of chips.
 
Proof that Southgate is clueless....

After England drew 1-1 against the USA at the 2010 World Cup in their opening game, he was in the presenters box on ITV and had this to say at full time....

"In 1990 we drew our first game against Egypt and went onto the semi finals".

Wrong, it was a 1-1 draw against Ireland that was the opening game and Egypt was the only match that saw England win in 90 minutes.

I think that they will win their play off berth looking at who they could get.

Think that Wales shot themselves in the foot, with keeping Rob Page in the job, after the very disappointing World Cup campaign.
Rob Page seems a very decent bloke. However he has managed Port Vale and Northampton Town.
Wales, mainly due to Gareth Bale & Rambo, have been highly ranked since 2016.
Surely, with the well attended gates and increased sponsorship, the Welsh FA could have afforded to appoint a higher profile manager than fecking Bryan Riggs ? He also snubbed Wales on many, many occasions.
When the aggressive twat was put on gardening leave, they should have looked for a bigger name than Rob Page.
Even if Wales beat Turkey on Tuesday, cannot see Croatia slipping up.
Oh, Armenia should have won tonight.
Ah well, roll on the play-offs...

That is quite the memory you have there!
 
The French certainly didn't mess about tonight. They clearly got some inspiration from their rugby team to get 14 goals. That's 2 tries and 2 conversions equivalent.

OK it was Gibraltar. But it's still very scary because they look serious about winning the euros next summer and I think they probably will.

Meanwhile we go back to our boring Monday night game against North Macedonia. Hopefully Southgate can learn from Frances result to just keep scoring even if we are playing rubbish teams.
