Spain v England - Sun 14th July, 20:00 | Euro 2024 Final

[meeesh]

Some of the England players removing their runners up medals. Pathetic.

Spoilt cunts, believe in their own hype too much , they should be grateful they even got to the final with some of the football they’ve played, turgid

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Shaw did. This is driving me mad. The chances they had from the right...Look where shaw is.

I’d have to see them back. At least one of the Yamal shots came from an unlucky deflection off Shaw’s foot.

He was also having to play full back, wing back and winger as Bellend doesn’t understand positional discipline.

 

[Blu1]

Thank god this is over & I can’t wait for these England threads to be closed.

Can’t wait for city match day threads again.

Next Southgate thread I want to see is at Xmas when he joins Utd

 

[Eccles Blue]

Yep, Shaw, Guehi and Stones didn’t really do much wrong. We just needed others to do the same.

Shaw didn’t have blooming time to do much wrong! He was flaming well injured for most of the time.
Still say Stones, Walker and Foden England players of the tournament with an occasional visit by Palmer.

 

[5 Hit Gibbon]

The cnut, like Ten Hag is holding on for the money.

Can't see too many other people who will be queuing up to pay him what he gets for England.

 

[Etihad]

Shaw did. This is driving me mad. The chances they had from the right...Look where shaw is.

Same as the semi. Got away with it because Netherlands were poor.

 

[MadchesterCity]

BOOM, what a bunch of sour faced cunts, accept defeat graciously

 

[I'm Blue]

That second Spain goal was Cityish.
Wonderful, they just opened England up with a few good passes and movement.

 

[Lovebitesandeveryfing]

He wasn't very good first half. Williams got past him too easily a few times.

Well, we can't have watched the same game. He almost never got past him in the first half, and when he did it was not “easily”. Made a couple of great overlaps too. Started making loads of mistakes in positioning and judgement in the second half.
Look, let's face it: nobody played particularly well. But then, Spain didn't allow us to. That's what a technically superior team does to an inferior one. It's what City do routinely, week after week, season after season.

 

[ancoats]

JACK GREALISH should refuse to play for england until Southgate leaves, If Southgate keeps his job somehow then Grealish should say fuck you,

A Game Changer sat at Wimbledon watching the tennis, Southgate you ****

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

Well done Spain, thoroughly deserved. We just haven’t played to our strengths.

 

[He’stheleftbackremember]

One good half of football in 7 games.

 

[madloaf]

I’d have to see them back. At least one of the Yamal shots came from an unlucky deflection off Shaw’s foot.

He was also having to play full back, wing back and winger as Bellend doesn’t understand positional discipline.

Well, I agree with the Bellingham jibe, as he played invisibly all night, and set up the goal which is maddening.

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

Loved watching the 2 wingers for Spain all tournament. Fearless football with a smile! They will terrorise full backs for the next decade, hopefully neither turns up at one of our rivals.

 

[xgorton]

A Spain double for me the Tennis and the football £85 won,happy days.

 

[skillman]

Still can’t believe how timid Rice was with his header. He should be cleaning everybody out to power that home, not just let it hit your head and hope. Madness.

 

[BamberBridgeBlue]

SOUTHGATE OUT !!!

A better manager wins against Italy and possibly Spain too. Gareth was the difference against Italy, Croatia and Spain. End of. Wonder if the FA will waste these players completely with their next appointment.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

Landon Donovan on Fox has just called Southgate a boring **** in the nicest way ever.

 

[coolcity]

Sorry, but anyone who thought England were going to win this tournament were deluding themselves. I mentioned after the semi that we had just managed to scrape past 5 teams who combined, have a TOTAL population of just over 40 million. In fact 4 of them have a population of under 10 million, Slovenia just 2.1m. Yet we struggled all the way through and if we're honest, didn't really deserve to make the final even though we got the easiest side of the draw by far. In the meantime, Spain, who also have a population smaller than England, were taking out France and Germany.

The frustrating thing for me is it's not that difficult to work out. We have the right players but the wrong manager, who scabbed it time and time again with last minute goals from subs who should have been on for longer. Kane hasn't done anything for me but is apparently not fully fit. So why is he starting every match? Bellingham is another Beckham, lauded by the media who has his moments but overall, for me doesn't offer a great deal. Mainoo, too early for him, did well but naivety meant he gave the ball away too often.

I'm not knocking them or any other player, the point is he's picking he wrong players at the wrong time and not changing it quickly enough when it goes tits up. That's why we lost the last final to Italy. I couldn't get excited throughout the tournament because I knew we would never win anything under Southgate, who has never won anything as a manager at any level, and hopefully this will be his last match in charge.

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

Southgate - He plays to not loose.

Then, when it counts, we lose.
