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

[Lavinda Past]

England were never good enough to get past an average Spanish team.

Hopefully not. He isn’t daft either so I’d expect him to go after the boo’s etc earlier in the comp. I quite like him as a person and find him honest, but he is limited as a manager/coach albeit with a great deal of luck when it comes to draws etc.

We need to bring someone in who has attack at the forefront of their mind, not defence and who is stronger than the players. No favourites. Southgate is way too loyal.

That was tongue in cheek… I said to a mate we need an elder statesman type that’s won it all who the players respect and in reverence of. No idea who. Gareth is a lovely bloke but it’s like the bloke you work with, drink and banter with who gets a promotion above you… the relationship isn’t right. He’s your boss now but do you respect him? Just seems he has his favourites and that’s not a good look

Played the idea of Spain 2010 and not the actual team playing in front of them

Yep these
He's a fine f*cking one to bleat on about a team playing poor but fluke an unmerited result

I'm an Arsenal fan but even I wanted to vomit when for the whole of last season he was droning on about how we deserved the league and how it would be an injustice if City won. He absolutely hates City, he'd rather ISIS won the league than you guys and it was so transparent. He's the kiss of death for us - as soon as he says 'that's it, title is going to the Emirates' I just know we are going to drop points against a shit team and City will grind out 10 wins on the spin.

Didn't get a chance, Boely was buying players without his knowledge.

Still the players didn't perform for him consistently. Could say the same about the same incumbant.

I struggle to see how we just can't press under Southgate. It's so poor.

If someone said a team had played to get to a final -

Serbia
Denmark
Slovenia
Slovakia
Switzerland
Netherlands

And that time had won 2 of those games by a goal, drawn 2 and won 1 after a penalty shoot out and the other in extra time after a 95th minute equaliser


Would you be that impressed?

I wouldn't call Spain average
