England v Scotland | Euro 2020 Group Stage

[jimmygrimblesboots]

It wasn't that in the build up though. Scotland were gonna get battered. England were gonna put 5 past us bla bla bla

Scotland get battered everywhere we gooooo

Thought the Scots had a plan and it worked , they knew Southgate would bottle it , play two defensive midfielders and just try to avoid defeat , unfortunately the pride and passion of the Scottish team will not be at the same level against Croatia and they will as you say , get battered.

Wouldn’t worry me good defensively not the most creative midfield.
I’d take Rodri, KDB Gundogan or Bernardo over it. if not Bernardo then Foden or Grealish.

Perhaps but I think Chelsea will be the main threat to us for the title next season. They have a lot of pace all over their team.

More chance of Shamima Begum coming home than England bringing it home

Shes in talks to join Joey Barton at Bristol Rovers.

I’m not celebrating, unlike yourself.

And rightly so. Proud of our wee nation, if tonight was nail biting then fuck knows how Tueaday will be.

i do wonder what people want from southgate.

hes played 4-2-3-1 and played the best team he can really. it wasnt overly defensive thats just bollocks.

everyone can go blue in the face for Grealish but hes started about 3 games since he got injured in february. Sancho has done jack shit in an england shirt so the manager goes with experience.

He’s played Foden out of position two games running, and takes him off despite being the best player in the pitch even though he was out of position.

Celebrate a draw.
It wasn't that long ago City fans celebrated a draw at the swamp.
That's what you do when you have had nothing to celebrate for years.

England play shit. So of course some people’s natural response is to have a dig at the opposition and their fans for daring to enjoy the performance and a result that keeps them alive in the tournament. Standard.
Some short memories considering how we used to celebrate a draw in the derby back in harder times

Au contraire, mon ami.
It's Southgate who's celebrating the "we got a 0-0 at Wembley" Cup.
He's like a rabbit in headlights when it comes to his team playing adventurous football, preferring not to see them lose.
It was like watching the England of old, the same dour tactics seen since the days of Ramsey, with the odd exceptions. Backwards, sideways, backwards, sideways, ad nauseam, passing for passing's sake, and then a hoof forward.
Plus ca change, plus la meme chose.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This, yet again.

 

[madloaf]

That's great until you realise that's the hard half of the draw. France in the quarters, Belgium or Italy in the semis etc

Now im sad again (relatively speaking). Ordered a wall chart!

Time for Southgate to go.

I’d sack the prick tonight.
