they performed exactly how i expected... Southgate masterclass
Please, Gareth Southgate, stay as England's manager. The team needs you. We need you. Your guidance, your leadership, your tactical genius - the Three Lions can't do without it. You've taken the team farther than anyone could have hoped for, and we believe in your vision.
You have the respect of the players, the fans, and the entire English football community. You've built a squad that's ready to take on the world. Don't leave us now, Gareth. We need you, and we want you to lead us to glory.
Southgate has been one of the most successful English manager in many decades. You seriously expect him to win anything with a team full of average overrated players?
@@BC-mj7gj Footballing legend Pele here, and let me tell you something. Gareth Southgate has demonstrated exceptional managerial skills over the years. He's led the England team to remarkable heights, despite working with what some call 'average' players. But let me ask you this, my friend, have you ever managed a national team? Do you understand the pressures and decisions that are involved? I think not. So, before you call Southgate's accomplishments into question, perhaps you should put yourself in his shoes and see if you could do any better.
@@dilksjoel where in my comment did I criticised Southgate?
Can we talk more about Spain? ESPN has the rights to La Liga, is their biggest broadcast rights in sport..
Exactly ahahaha
Been saying it for a year. These guys are a joke
The CHANNEL is called ESPN UK for a reason I guess
You're watching a channel called ESPN UK, and the pundits are speaking English......... it's somewhat understandable the focus is primarily on England.
They never will. Just like when Italy won, they talked about England. Spain won they'll talk about England. Group stage, final whatever... they'll talk about England. The biggest failures in international history
I honestly don’t see what’s so great about Bellingham. He practically ran cardio during knockouts in the EUROS and Champions League. Did not impact at all
This is why fans are fans as they critique with biased insight. What do you mean specifically in regard to Bellingham?
Hyper job he is awful, no impact. Loss of player.Absurd
Awful player while Cole Palmer on the bench !
Well he played out of position half of the tournament and the other half he had Kane and Foden in his space. Honestly, Southgate is the luckiest moron in the history of this game playing 3 RBs and 3 players in number 10 space without a LW. It's beyond stupid. You can point to all English attacking players and accuse them of being poor when the manager is to blame for his selection and formation.
lol the 20yr old carried madrid for the first half of the season, 2 assists and a goal during the euros as a midfielder. if you think he isn't a star, you have not been watching.
England lost because Spain were a lot better.
Four more years, four more years
They did exactly what was expected.
Lost to the first quality side they faced.
Yamal showed Bellingham how to do the job by creating 16 chances and 4 assists
Mierdine Mierdal
Jude still had a better season fool
When Jude has a better coach and team mates, like at Real, Yamal is not in his league. Yamal has the far better coach and team mates at Spain. Jude can't turn shite into caviar
Cool see u next szn
@@AmapianoGodVery Debateble😂. This is Yamal's breakout season at 16 and he is winning the golden boy and aleeady won the Euro young player. Yamal made as a starter late in the season with Barça'a injury crisis. Jude had impact only in laliga and less in the champions. Also playing for a stacked team like Real Madrid with obvious refereeing advantage helped him. 😂 Vinicius his teammate was more impactful.
Yamal is on par with Bellingham if we take the Euro's also to the account. So it's very debatable as I said.
England always play with zero spite.I never ever see them rough up there opponent’s or get in their faces .This is an absolute must at the highest level .They are to soft/to nice
Con el juego será , porque con las lenguas no se privan son viperinas.
Southgate
@@Daniboi971 softgate mate.Nice bloke just like his team only to nice
As an England fan, I honestly think Jude is so overrated. I watched his last 15 games but didn't see anything to suggest he's as good as people say he is . He will get better but not world class YET.
So which ENG player is world class? Which world class ENG player performed in the tournament? Which ENG player has an elite mentality to be world class and has performed for ENG….when it mattered?
@@landothomas1118Palmer clearly
Exactly.... this is not a TEAM...
but an overpaid, underwhelming collection of egos.
I haven't missed a single video as it relates to England postmortem😂. Back to back Euro final lost. Great to see
Italian 😂😂 same for me
But your team was the worst in the tournament so I wouldn’t make fun too much , I’m Spanish btw sooo I’m impartial.
@@alastairbrewster4274 list the worse teams at every Euro. I bet you can't do that. You know why? It doesn't matter. I bet you can list all the winners though and if you can't a simple Google search would help. You know why? It's the winners that matters. Spain are 4 times champions Italy are 2 times champions. England have never won it😂. A Spanish man with the name Alastair Brewster💀
@@maldini3184 doesn’t change the fact Italy is the worst team in the euros and maybe even Europe 💀
@@alastairbrewster4274 Doesn't change the fact England are the favorites for every tournament and the best team and can't win one. Even Greece have a Euro. Back to back losses hurt a lot😂. Guess who England lost to in one of those? The worse team in Europe Italy😭
Fully agree with Stevie here this team they were garbage throughout the entire tournament. Had they been placed on the other side of the draw they wpuldnt have even made it to the final. They were garbage and they deserved to lose. Spain were the better side period
From Opta - 23 - Since the 2002 UEFA Champions League final, Spanish teams and the Spanish national team have played in 23 major finals (Champions League, UEFA Cup, Europa League, World Cup, European Championship) against non-Spanish teams and won the trophy on all 23 occasions. Campeones.
10 of them against English opposition. Crazy stats!!
Hold up, let's not get carried away with those stats. Sure, Spanish teams and the national team have won major trophies against non-Spanish opponents, but let's not forget some crucial details. First off, those stats don't account for the number of non-Spanish teams they've faced. Second, it's important to consider the strength of opposing teams in each final. Just because they've won 10 times against English teams doesn't mean every match was a landslide victory.
So, while the stats may sound impressive, let's not jump to conclusions without some serious scrutiny.
But it is still true you know@@dilksjoel
@@dilksjoel 23 is the amount of none Spanish teams they played in the final. The strength of those English teams? i.e. Arsenal, Man Utd, Man City and Liverpool (twice) in Champions League finals. The run is from 2002 and this includes 3 Euro finals and the WC final. I think is quite extraordinary winning all 23 tournament finals since 2002.
Uefa Super Cup 24...Man City beat Sevilla
@@buxtoneeltd5730 That is not a tournament final. Neither is a major final
All the experimenting should have been done before the tournament. Southgate had some great players in the bench, and he came to the tournament like he was not prepared
England was just within my expectations. My expectations happen to be realistic. They actually over achieved by reaching the finals.
the press keep feeding the egos. and in reply, the fans point the finger at the most humble servant of the team, Kane. lol. keep it up.
humble? he did nothing all competition.
Were is Ole Moreno? Copa America?
@georgeshali1432 Yep.
Hes in LA. He’s been relegated to the show with Herc and Seb
This is not the manager, this is England, why have you not won in 60 year (that was at home and you were lucky). You do not have a team, you and always did have a group of very gifted players. This is culture.
It all comes down to the coach. Pep, sir alex, ancellotti won trophies because they are/were great coaches. Period
So Bellingham is the lad to blame as Beckham after 1998 world cup 😂😂 and Saka,Rashford, sancho after 2020 Euro..there should be a lad to blame...ohh god this is England
It’s actually Kane this time
it's not about the commercial it's The timing and the content of The commercial I disagree with the pundits
Let’s not blame foden 007 this is pure racism by the athletic pick on the black guy
They should focus on the coach and leaden footed Kane. They are really looking for a Black man to scapegoat..what a joke
When it comes to the Euro 2024 final, let's be real here. Blaming the result on the performance of players of certain ethnicities is just plain wrong. Football is a team sport, and a whole lot of factors come into play when a team performs well or not. Blaming it on ethnicity is just an excuse and does a disservice to the players and the beautiful game. Let's focus on the actual gameplay, tactics, and individual performances instead of resorting to tired old racist arguments.
Nothing to do with race
Stop it!
Nothing to do with race some of us think he's massively overrated. Plenty of people blaming the working class white kid.
4:49 -Well said Luis Garcia 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Hopes are high in England regarding football.And it ain't happening again.
Bellingham could not impact any of the games coz Kane was getting in his way and he was also played out of position.
Spain were a great TEAM with above-average individual talent.
England are a disjointed team that lack purpose & cohesion , but they are just LOADED with S/A+-tier talent. England probably had the best FIVE players in that Euro Final in terms of individual talent (Kane Saka Jude Foden Rice).
And Spain essentially dominated England from whistle to whistle. So what does this tell you? Football is the ULTIMATE team game. Its like live action chess. Spain had Gary Kasperov moving pieces around the pitch, and England had my Uncle Joe, drinking a Busch tallboy and saying things like "What does this horsey do again?". Thats essentially Southgate in comparison to the very very top-flight coaching in world football
Its a english sports media...of course they will mainly speak on england instead of spain
It wouldn't be "white" if we didn't make the black playe, the scapegoat. When Harry Kane play like trash , Phil Foden hot garbage. But no, let's blaming on a commercial before the tournament. Even we haven't win sh..t in 58 years. Missed me with that
Oh fook off with the nonsense.
They're just as likely to say Kobbie Mainoo was amazing ( which he was ).
Give it a rest with this divisional shite.
Why bBellingham and not Kane?
Shine at the age of 19 and retired at 30 that’s the era we living in
It's starting to look like the movie Groundhog day. Same scenario different year. Every time we hope and hope and come up short in the last fase.
He is great talent, but there were times it seems he wanted to do it alone during the tournament
Because he was playing with inept players like foden. 0 GOALS AND 0 ASSISTS 😳.
@@mannyyard9882 good point
Formation , strategy , players really they just play zone and no planning. You dont play to win but as long as not lost many goals.
Here goes the media again, blaming it on the kid with the dark skin. Disgraceful! We need to get past the obsession with individuals in English football culture. It's a team sport, as Spain demonstrated admirably!
You realise it's the Spanish Media that they're talking about?
Stop making everything about race you fucking nutters!
@@Joeeye123 What are you referring to? I'm talking about the comments at the beginning about the England squad being unhappy with Bellingham doing an Adidas advert just before the tournament.
@martin-hall-northern-soul so how did you come to the conclusion it's about "the kid with the dark skin"? It sounds like you making it even more sensational than the media.
@@Joeeye123they did it to Rushford and Saka before. No mention of Foden who was a ghost the entire tournament. At least Jude scored goals and had important passes/assist.
Jude had a better season then the whole Barcelona squad even scored against them twice👌
3 times out of
England must introspect and be grateful
One of the great wing backs
England needs a new manager, new goalkeeper, 4 new defenders, 3 new midfielders (specially a playmaker), 2 new wingers and new striker and 11 new substitutes.
After that, everything will be fine.
Jude was England best player in the finals. In as much as collectively they couldn't achieve results that shouldn't be blamed on the young lad. Appears there is so much pressure on him from the public and the media.
7:33 Dan is having the time of his life throlling England 😂
bellingham was the only player that showed frustration at his team and manager on ocasions for not doing the basic and normal functions of a team and deserves respect, maybe if the rest did the same they would of done better. and lets not forget messi had awful tournament performances for his country for years before lifting the trophy, and before anyone accuses me i am not saying he is as good as messi.
As a Real Madrid fan, I would love nothing more than the English not asking Jude to be part of their national team. Less chances of him getting injured and he will less likely be subjected to moronic tactics. England had a moron manager and now some imbecile fans and media pundits calling him overrated. I really hope he retires internationally and let them fail alone without dragging him into it.
100% agree, and feel exactly the same way about Trent as a Liverpool fan
@@13jcarey why worry about Trent....You don't get injured on the bench. go cry somewhere else
Honestly you are spot on, English fans don’t deserve to have this quality on their team. That goes for foden as well. The English have no class
@@ta8779media
It's the habits😅😅
Talented squad ruined by the FA!!! Playing favourites rather than picking the best! 😂
Do they really need another video to discuss what everyone on earth has been saying for an entire month? Lol
Steve Nicol had been there and done it and is always 100%
Yes played for Scotland lol
Why do they keep on saying he's 20yrs old 😂😂😂😂😂
What’s so funny? He’s 21?
Uma equipa com muitas estrelas nunca tem sucesso! Para se alcançar uma vitória é necessária a cooperação de equipa, a sabedoria e experiência dos mais velhos com o vigor físico dos mais novos, e foi o que o selecionador espanhol fez! Onde só há estrelas todos têm a mania que são bons e só eles é que sabem, egos demasiado inflamados, onde não há espírito de equipa e cada um.quer desfilar a mania e a vaidade. Parabéns ao treinador espanhol que foi inteligente na construção da sua equipa e aos jogadores que souberam organizar-se e jogar no coletivo para alcançar o sucesso!
This is the agè old problem with England..Pin the reasons for failure on the poster boy...first it was beckham , then rooney , then kane and now Jude...the issue starts with idol worship philosophy...Spain won becoz there was no particular superstar status afforded to any player...
Just be glad like the rest of the world that a team playing ugly football did not win. Spain is on paper a lesser team with less "great" players but they won with great football. Football does not want to come home with the state the home is in. If France or England would have won this I would have stopped watching football completely :)
Spain is a "lesser team" based on what performance metrics? The only metrics that mattered here were how indiduals and teams played over the course of the 7 Euro matches and I would confidently say that Spain exceeded those of England's in all key areas. While stats don't decide games, the final's stats indicated that individually and collectively Spain is superior to England. As do stats feom previous matches. Coaching ability may have some impact on overall performance but not as much as the talent of individual players have on the game's outcomes.
being honest as much as we english are ABSOLUTELY DESPERATE for a trophy and
we would of taken any sort of a performance on sunday if we had Won , our football was dire , the best team in the competition lifted the trophy
They played better teams and beat them all
We struggled against countries we should of beat easily
Oh please Bellingham is the most overrated player in the game.. Nothing but a clunky marathon runner with a huge annoying PR..If this player even gets into top 15 Ballon d'Or podium, then football is de ad
Finally! Someone who knows
its real vardrid player... of course he is in the top 10
Mierdin Mierdal es una mierr.. I know you can speak Spanish as I've seen you in other Mierdalonistas channels talking so much rubbish hd.. p
Facts ahahahah
Described him perfectly. A clunky marathon runner
They performed exactly how I expected. Please talk about other teams. All you do is talk about England.
Dani Carvajal should win the .Ballon d'or
The only one's that expected are pundits, I bet you they will get a good manager but don't get in a final, they might win nations league though
I don't want to say the other name LOL 😂
Bellingham is the new penaldo all PR 😂😂😂
Tumadr3 hd+++p
Your comment is dumb. CR7 actually performed when he was Jude's age
@mrfacts6860 Bellingham is literally English Pogba.
Ancelotti, Vini Jr and Real Madrid's world class midfield made his life easy.
So says another virtual 🛋️🥔
I don't see him staying on
so the "issue" with Jude only comes out after they lost. heard nothing of this throughout the tournament though.
The Athletic is full of 💩. Feel free to name players that had issue with him
I am a fan and big supporter of the English premier league for most of my life. Always exciting. But let's be real and honest, the difference between the Premier league and the English National team is chalk and cheese. From adminsitration to coaches to team system of playing and discipline there is nothing to compare. Let's not forget that most of the real stars and coaches of the Premier League are not English. That says something about the focus, philosophy and development of English national football. Lots of 'BS' behind the scenes. Also so much hype by media, driven commercially, about English players. Reality, for every "English football star" in every position, there is at least 5 players in the world out there that are equal if not better, that do not get the same media attention. How many fans heard of the many spanish players??...... In my lifetime, I would love to celebrate an English team winning the World Cup or Euro tournament. For that to happen, the FA needs to be honest, sober up and re-invent a future philosophy, culture and system of play for the English National teams. And then select the players that fit the system. The word "stars" is commercial nonsense. So called stars cannot win without the collective team . I Remain hopeful.
Bellandham is overrated. Carried by Madrid and made to look better than he actually is. This tournament exposed him for the fraud he is
jealous
English players need continental talent to be successful. They have good players but without the intelligence of a Rodrigi they cant hold on to the ball. They really should be playing to their strengths. Play with a functional midfield and play fast wingers.
You can criticise Southgate as much as you want but the truth is that he’s a small part of the problem. The biggest problem is that most English fans, English media and pundits don’t watch football outside of England and that makes them think so many average players are world class players. A friend of mine was so happy that Rodri was not coming back and he said Zubimendi would be a weak link and I laughed because he never watched Zubimendi played😂. I told him that Zubimendi would start in this English team if he was English and he was looking at me like I am crazy. English league is so exciting because of the money, marketing, commercial reasons therefore can afford the best managers and best players around the world, but in terms of technique and tactics, Spain would always be superior to England. So many complain it’s all the fault of Southgate and belief that all English players are better than Spanish players in head to head and that’s a joke. Spanish players are way more superior to English players in technique and it was never close.
England are ranked 5th and have 1 top 10 win in 8 years. Southgate is the biggest issue. He's incompitant.
@@russellward4624what was their ranking from 2000 to 2010 when there was much better players in England than the current team?
You said the same about Italy the last tournament

Oh cry some more
Not facts at all both were bit part players modric started 18 games ffs
@@leehaslam5751 blind af. while his goals were vital his performances were subpar at best. totally overhyped. eg when Carlo changes the formation it is because he constantly takes up other players' space and leaves gaps. then his performance drop significantly. Jude is overrated that is a fact
@@domination2720 motm 15 times for Real Madrid last season ur hilarious
Completely agree with Stevie and Mario….the team did not perform and lost to a better team, full stop…..looking for scape goats does not make any sense
Obviously this was a very good Spanish side that looked intimidatingly strong in the group stage, and then dispatched two more than credible contenders of Germany and France to prove they were worthy of being winners, before even reaching the final. England looked uncomfortable the majority of the time against every level of opposition, managing to squeak by a weak Netherlands that is in a rebuilding phase.
It is not the result that is worth moaning about. It is that, as football fans, we can see for ourselves that the English side was often underperforming. Spain did what Spain does against an underperforming team.
As a Liverpool fan, I would cheerfully rubbish Foden and Walker if I genuinely thought they were playing poorly. But I do not blame them. I blame poor man management, and that is on Southgate. Southgate stubbornly sticks with his favorite players even when they are obviously tired and obviously having poor games. Walker's goofs led to both Spanish goals, but I am not going to complain about Kyle. I blame Gareth for not subbing Kyle at the half or after the first Spanish goal.
Since when are the losers the focus of attention. It's not is if they were the best team and had a shocking loss. There were at least three teams that were considered better than England so all this coverage has an English bias that's reflected on the panel. I thought ESPN was a American company, seems not enough tea was thrown in Boston Harbor.
What about Foden? 008 😂
There’s nothing special about Bellingham, not among best passers of the ball, not among best dribblers, not among best playmakers.
If he wasn’t special, he wouldn’t be at Real Madrid in the first place. But go head, keep scapegoating him.
@@hrt-gaming4920 real
They lost to by far the better team just get on with it
English players are overrated all the times by the pundits and actually they are just average .
Excessive praise is the main reason for the failire of England team.
Spain has won 2-3 international football trophies in the last 15 years alone....but i am surprised how hungry they are compared to England....
SOUTHGATE HAS GONE THANK GOD ,
it all depends now on the incompetent fools at the fa getting the next appointment right , not another english ex football legend with no cv like gerard , like lampard and even the likes of eddie howe & graham potter , all SOUTHGATE IN DISGUISE
ahh yes let’s blame the Black player for the whole team’s failures…
jude is overrated
Typical England. Southgate, Kane and Foden were all terrible but ah no let's blame the black kid who scored the overhead kick to get them there. Same on last Euros where Saka got all the stick when the idiot manager who has no tactical nous and basically here because he got nice vibes. I think this thing has a name, and it starts with an R and ends in -ism. I'm so happy they lost. They don't deserve any happiness.
Idolizing not so sure about that. I love football but my only idol is GOD
I really don't like this guy. Total instigator. SIgh!
Bellingham and Foden and Saka stinkers
Always looking for excuses .. typical English response to failure …
if he wins theb ballondor u can all just stop giving it really.
Don't worry, Messi will get it for crying on the bench
😂😂😂
Nothing to do with youth Alex... Smellingham has just developed an ego which comes with a bad attitude
I don't know but I think Jude Bellingham should be number one in the Balon Dor list
I think you even know how deluded you are 😂
rodri vinicius carvajal > bellingham
He is overated
Bellongnam is a wack job, he is awful. He hypnotuze everyone. He is very a average the oitch and had a terrible game
Captaincy of Kane looks a bigger problem than Southgate, just give captaincy to Saka 🥲
The thumbnail, poor Bellingham 😨🙄.
