      I'm a Newcastle fan but Saka was absolutely brilliant, he's usually one of our best, and I love him for the way he shrugged off the disgusting abuse he got in the past, and then does that. Absolute undeniable balls of steel. Pride of England.

      Does this for Arsenal all the time mate. Arsenal fans are laughed at when we say he’s better than Foden. But he’s not just G/A’s he works for the team will double up and help defend the best wingers and then win games in vital moments.

      "England got a lucky penalty" (example v Denamrk at 2021)
      "They beat worst German team ever"
      "They were at home, so had advantage"
      "They got lucky draw".
      People never happy! I'm sure other teams got lucky too in last. England had so much bad luck in past tournaments, maybe it's balancing out a bit?!
      Either way, England made their own luck by winning opening games and topping groups in their recent tournaments. That helps to get a good draw.

Clearly Trippier had been told to push higher and stay wide, while Foden was pushed inside and given freedom to rotate with Bellingham. Saka absolutely was not playing as a wing back, and Walker was still attacking the byline on overlaps, he was just also being more cautious when Trippier advanced. It was the same system and everyone was telling me it wasn't, I started doubting my own eyes

    Massive improvement, the team was fantastic in the first half with great intensity and pressing, on another day we score 1 or 2 with our quality in the final third. I think Southgate had to sub earlier, to try and release the pressure the Swiss built in the second half.

    Walker seems extremely poor
    Overall I don’t think you have to play exciting amazing football to get through, there’s been so much moaning about Southgate but everyone knows his style isn’t exciting, yet you’ve got to another semi, and possibly given the luck of the drawn could be in another final, he gets alot of grief but tournament football doesn’t allow pep style football, it may be boring but England fans have had 2 moments in this tournament that they’ll cherish with Bellinghams goal and the pen shootout win, it doesn’t matter how he does it Southgate just gets the job done, no matter how much fans think they know best he continues to get the results

    I don't understand your player ratings. What you're saying is making sense, but the numbers doesn't follow it imo. To me atleast, a scale from 1 - 10 makes 5 average, and when you're calling out, f.ex. Kyle Walker for being below expectations he shouldn't be anywhere near a 6. Maybe I'm harsh, but only a handful of players would ever get near 9s or 10s and a bang average performance should be awarded accordingly.

Saka’s been the one attacker who hasn’t dropped a stinker (and scored a worldie) and this was so fitting after the last euros final. For Trent, he’s been a scqpegoat for essentially being shoe-horned into an unfamiliar role and a system that does not make use of his strengths.

    Now that England are in the semis and potentially the final, are the chances of him parting ways with this team greatly reduced? I’ve heard he was planning to step down regardless of results, but if they reach the final and he decides to stay surely the FA wouldn’t fire him. Or would they?
