Spain won European championship for the 4th time. England never won European championship. Spain play beautiful football, they didn't lose any final in last 23 final played.
Spain is the real home of European Football.
England believes that they are the best in Europe, like Mexicans believes that they are the best in America.
But reality is false.
@@havetrustissue8975 no, France have always been the real home, even Spain have reel french players in their 11, they provide the most good players in Europe by far
@@lucian6857 What are you talking about? spain have french players? by that logic, france have mostly African players.
@@AWY-LO👏
@@lucian6857 lol, France team don't have any France player, except 2 or 3. Mostly are Africans.
And also 87% of France's World Cup-winning team are immigrants or children of immigrants.
No disrespect Nicol. But Luis de la Fuente is:
European Champion U-19 winner (2015)
European Champion U-21 winner (2019)
Olimpic Finalist U-23 (silver) (2020)
Nations League winner 2022-2023
If you didnt heared about him until 9 months ago… that’s on you. You are a journalist in European football mate
Don't know why Scotsman Stewart is hating on Southgate. In Scotland we love Southgate, he consistently allows us to sleep without any noise from our neighbour! We will be cheering his reappointment.
Robbo is ENGLISH, the noisy neighbour's will b quite 4 another 2yrs at least
His tactics are very unattractive but as someone who isn't British, I think England has done way better with him than any other England manager I can remember, and I'm more than 40 years old! I do wonder though if the case is that these crop of players are just that good and it is Southgate holding them back, but it seems unlikely when you consider that the team with Rooney, Beckham, Gerrard, lampard, Scholes, Terry, Ashley Cole, Lampard etc in it were nowhere near this successful, so I guess it's quite possible that Southgate is the difference much as it's hard to accept
Hate to burst your bubble, Southgate has resigned
You clowns weren't even able to get out of your group lol
Congratulations to Spain 🇪🇦 It was a Treat to watch this Team... Vamos Spain
Truth is, the real final was played when Spain 🇪🇸 played Germany 🇩🇪
Vamos espana. Congrats to laporte who was ignored by France and today a euro winner with spain.
This is very significant. Spain beat Croatia, Italy,Germany,France and England. Only Germany was able to take them to extra time. Well deserved champion.
Germany played better and spain was lucky to advance
@@DrEcKiGeRDaN88Germany did not play better. They had about 20 minutes of intense pressure but Spain withstood it all and gave a Merino reply!

Du glaubst auch dass jeder spanisch spricht?
Ihr seid genauso erbärmlich wie die Engländer.
Spain have a TEAM in capital letters, England have a group of stars football players(they seems don´t have chemical) they don´t have a soul, play like robots!!! Spain has the best tournament in the history of Euro 7 win straight.....First time ever a team can do this..... The best team, thank God, won!!!!!
The media are always overrating english players because of the EPL, they dont even know who half the Spanish players are 😂, if the did they wouldn't be saying their players are better 😂
Absolutely
Compared to England?...........Spain has best players, best coach, best team, best football league, best weather, best food, best looking people, best country.
Tú sí que sabes, Enzo 😂❤
How many Prem teams play possession ball? And where did it come from 🤔..
Calm down 🤗🤪
@@TM-bk3rlSpain
And best Eurozone membership 🤣
Dan and the entire English media are delusional believing they had the better players against the Spanish side. The English believe the EPL is the best league and a lot of their players come from the EPL so they are top players but the reality is La Liga is far superior tactically from a player and coach standpoint. England's best player plays in Spain and has gotten better. The reality is Spain has set the standard for football currently both for the men and women's game and everyone else is just catching up. The English media and Dan can stay delusional and believe they have a chance in 2026, but they have no chance. They shouldn't even have been in this Euro final. They had the easier bracket and barely got through it.
every player and coach will say la liga is better in terms of quality and improving players.. but they'll will say epl is superior its crazy.. the worst team in liga would do great in epl all ima say
Football is a team game, yes English media believe their players are good and rightly so, they have players who won best player in England (EPL) and Spain (laliga) and most goal scorer in Bundesliga. But as a team they where awful and the best team won the tournament
But England has more football than what they have shown. They can perform way better with a good manager and they should adopt the same football style from the junior categories up to the "pros". It takes time but it's the way to go.
i feel most know la liga is technically better, however, what many people believe is that the EPL is more entertaining..
Facts!! 💯
Si los Jugadores Españoles son Peores, son desconocidos, pero mientras sigan ganando que nos quiten lo bailao, al final no hay que hablar tanto, hay que demostrar y eso lo hacen bien los Españoles.
Más claro no se puede decir.
Efectivamente, no tiene pq ser positivo o una garantía el tener estrellas para ganar títulos sino mira Inglaterra Francia tienen jugadores buenísimos y jugaban a la nd misma
Yes , they go the hard way againts good teams like Italy, Croatia, Germany, and France.
I would like to add that the Spanish media in general did not expect this result at all ....and in fact the Spanish coach ( politely ) has reiterated on several occasions that he knew the boys perfectly well ....since they were kids in lower level teams ...that he and the group had a very high confidence ...and that they knew they played well....
A lot of new name we never heard in there tbh, and allmost all of them played above expectations like Cucurela, Ruiz, Olmo, Nico, Yamal. Even morata not that bad, he pressing alot
That’s what is called continuity
I saw from a mile away… it’s like barça’s team with its DM n left wing solved.
In this case, the trainer and his qualities have been more than fundamental.
Espanha CAMPEÃ EUROPEIA, "vitória do futebol"... 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Although the wingers from Spain were exceptional, the key of this Spanish team success is the midfield. Rodri, Fabian and Olmo were incredible for several reasons:
1. They took control of all the games (7)
2. They dictate the tempo taking away the speed of fast teams like Germany, France and England (Brazil did it in the seventies, slowing down the game and the fast European teams they could never find their rhythm)
3. Taking control in midfield they split the opposite team and their forwards were always totally isolated from their midfielders
4. In any giving moment any of the midfielders became a false 9, a winger, or an attacking midfielder with the opposite defenders always caught unprepared
5. They regain possession isolating the opposite players and pressuring them like a wolf pack in specific areas.
The real reason why England lost against Spain is because they didn't have an specific plan or style to play their games and they relied more in individual brilliance than in a collective strategy for their games.
remind me of the 3 mid of busquet xavi n iniesta.....balanced mid...of dm cm and am.
better name doesn’t equal better player
As a kid in boarding school in Kent i thought i was a good Footballer until a yourug Spanish kid joined our class, Cesar vitton, when he joined the under 12 team he was out of this world,natural talent,you couldn't get the ball off him,I asked him where he learned that,he said in Spain we all play like this.
Spanish players are just natural footballers,they learn it from young
In Kent Ct?
@@alonzor.2912 I don't understand
@@JoFreshFrancis I think he's trying to figure out if you're British or American.
Not "natural footballers". The issue is that in Spain there is a YUUUUGE emphasis in ball control, passing, and maintaining a proper team mentality.
@@ElectroAtletico and look at the Spanish only 4 or 5 barca and RM players,it's all about football culture and mentality
I don't get how anybody can call a team who hasn't won a trophee in 58 years favourites...England were not favourites.
England have the best players and they should play much better than they actually do. The coach is to blame
@@xalau5270 They had the easiest draw and almost bottled it. English players are overrated by british media, they have won nothing in europe without a spanish or german coach.

The best team in the tournament won and well deserved. The final of this tournament was played when they eliminated Germany. A solid defensive, solid midfield and a very strong attack. A team that is very strong collectively but also have one of the best individual players in the tournament in terms of technical ability and natural talent.
Your last statement could literally be referring to about four players on the Spain team so have no idea who you are talking about.
@@juismac Carvahal, Unai Simon, Laporte, Rodri, Ruis, Yamal and Nico all are better than their English counterparts
@@BC-mj7gj you said that they also have one of the best players of the tournament and I’m just saying they probably have the five best players of the tournament in Rodri, Danny Olmo, Nico Williams and Lamine Yamal. We could say that Fabian Ruiz should be added to this list so the five not four best players of the tournament.
@@juismac yeah you are absolutely right 👏🏼
@@juismac I don't know if (other than Rodri) I would say they are the best, but they are on par
Actually Spain started last year (Nation League) so more is coming, I am sure this is the new Golden Generation, Vamos Espana ❤
Spain will be a very scary team come 2026. We would have in their prime : Balde, Gavi, Pedri, Curbasi, Ansu , and many other talents if they stay injury free 🔥
Ansu Fati? we will see...
ANSU??? Only barça players on your list. Spanish football is sooo much more: Nico, Olmo, Rodri, Yeremi Pino, Carvajal, Bryan Zaragoza, Pedro Porro, Zubimendi, Ayoze, Grimaldo, Cucurella, Fabián... to name a few of them. Please, open your mind and stop with that "la masia" and "Barcelona DNA" nonsense as if they invented football and training academies when Football players like Pedri and Gavi came from other teams and played in Barcelona Academy for only one year. Is that DNA?? That is marketing. Come on.
@@rober.1873 Real Madrid fan detected
Olmo, Rodri, Yamal and Niko. All of them equally deserved the POTT. I hate how the media just focuses on what's marketable.
Absolutely.
The other players don't deserve rodri played all games and he's crucial to the team
Fabian Ruiz?
Yes there is no unnecessary place for Egos
true, Fabian as well was magnificent throughout
Bellingham's ego is out of control. No doubt he's a very good player especially for his age, but he seems to think he's the next Messi or Ronaldo. lol It's so aggravating to see him fall down and constantly moan for fouls, or get angry with his teammates over mistakes. Your career just started, man. Check yourself.
when has he ever put himself on the level that they were at? i think youre just hating atp because yes he complains in the field and blames his teammates but what player hasnt done that in their careers, so ill reflect that back on you, check yourself.
En las estadísticas fue mejor España, en el partido también. En las complicadas eliminatorias lo hizo perfecto y marcó record de goles, unicamente necesitó una prórroga para eliminar a toda una Alemania anfitriona. Ha sido espectacular y además es muy divertido de ver.
They keep on saying the English players are better. Seriously?
De la Fuente has numerous accolades as a trainer coaching the youth teams in the Spanish Federation over a 10-year period. He was also a great left back in Athletic Bilbao among other teams as a player. To say you don’t know him can go both ways, Mr.Pundit.
Carvajal, Morata, and Laporte are the only current starters for Spain that will be older than 30 in 2026. This team is going to be scary.
And new young players will be waiting their chance. For example, Barça´s center back Pau Cubarsí
De La Feunte coached these players in u18s and u21s. He built this team starting years ago. Spain built the right way. From the name on team sheet to the 26th person on roster, they all play as one cohesive unit. The funny thing about that Addidas promo was Bellingham represented England and Spain was represented by Pedri Lamine Nico and one or two others.
One cohesive unit, well said!!!
A random thought I had watching this - most of the players from England's starting XI come from clubs where others are the risk takers.
- Kane/Bayern - Sane, Musiala, Coman, etc.
- Bellingham/Real - Vinni, Rodrygo (Jude kind of takes risks, but still need a good bit of link up play, AND has dropped form like Stevie said)
- Foden/City - Doku (city's system doesn't really require players to take people on like Yamal/Williams do)
- Saka/Arsenal - he DOES take people on, but he wasn't able to link up play with Kane well who's in some regard a poacher/immobile
The ones who ARE the risk takers are the people who were coming off the bench (Watkins, Palmer, Eze) and they immediately were breaking lines, earning chances.
I think that combined with the pressure of the Euros, plus being labeled a golden generation, and the learned (club) reliance on others to take risk led to maybe a fear of going forward?
Idk, I'm just another bloke with another opinion who never will make it to a starting XI hahah
Oh wow, ok they're talking about not being risk takers now
Let me tell you all something big , the elephant in the room .
Spain is slowly but surely , since pep barca , becoming the real brazil of the world .
And that's sad for brazil and the old generation like me .
Spain started like this before Guardiola took charge of Barça. The one who started this was Luis Aragonés, who coached Spain in 2008 and won the European Championship that year. He had the courage to leave Raúl at home despite the hatred of all the Spanish media
@xalau5270 after pep. They did start winning , aragones won after that , revise the period again .
@@amrasfour1718Spain won Euro 2008 in June, Pep's first season at Barca was 2008-2009. You are not right...
@@diegobernini6372 Spain won in the summer of 2008 and pep took over at Barca after the tournament
Spanish football is sooo much more than Pep. It started before with Luis Aragonés. Please, open your mind and stop with that "la masia" and "Barcelona DNA" nonsense as if they invented football and training academies when Football players like Pedri and Gavi came from other teams and played in Barcelona Academy for only one year. Is that DNA?? That is marketing, come on. Also the style and the base of that team was already there. Guardiola is a good coach, but not that great. He takes credit for things that others had done.
Dan's still doing it - "England have all the better players".
He is delussional.
According to English media.
England only have stars players, Spain have a TEAM, good play, confidence and respect between them !!!!! They are trully CHAMPIONS
Regardless of the headline its all about England. We want to hear about the winning team please
Spain will win 2026 WC .. Yamal will win the Ballon d'Or in the same year ..Pin this comment
The way barca handles finances. They will have to sell him before then.
Spain won this tournament with inferior players. They will not win the next world cup unless they get three or four good players into the squad in the next two years.
Nah. We can just sell Ferran, Raphinha or Araujo
@@ignaciodeltoro1778 you clearly dont understand the matter of distress. For barcelona it is not so much management of finances per se, but more of meeting la liga ffo requirements and expenditure cap.
@@bernardfox9078Inferior? 😂
Rodri, Nico, Lamine, Caraval ...
For example in this case, Spain has been nurtured by players formerly under 21 and lower categories .... and the coach is characterized by having been precisely the one who has led these teams (especially under 21) ... knows the players and their skills .... and has kept players who have been champions in lower categories .... has not been carried away by the "names" and has created or maintained over time team with players "winners" selection at different levels .... Team and confidence.
Sorry about my English!!!😅😅😅
He also coached under 19 as well.
Your English is good!👍🏿
Bellingham for Balon d’or should be Illegal. absolutely no way
He’s the biggest fraud
Why not? Had a great season at madrid, got to the finals of euros. Scored 2 crucial goals
Vini JR and Rodri are ahead of Bellingham for me!
@@plutostudio4131 Because he's not the best player. Rodri, Vini, and even Lautaro deserve it more imo.
Let’s remember that ballon dor is PR award nothing more. It’s all about perception over statistics. Saying this Bellingham performance over last year was great and he deserves spot in top 3 no doubt. RM won all thanks in great part to him. Whether he was the best to win ballon dor that’s debatable
No noise pollution Thank you .
That England had the best players? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Only one or two English players (Bellingham, Saka) would be starters for the Spanish team.
Bellingham and Kane.
How England has better players I don't understand. England has popular players not more skilled than Spain. Technically almost all Spanish players are better.
People, like Robson, who are criticising Bellingham didn't really watch the game. The reason he looks tired at times is because of his style of play. He is the only midfielder we have who is prepared to drive with the ball into opposition territory. If you actually watched the game you would have seen how massive his contribution was to our equaliser. Firstly, he made himself available for Pickford to throw the ball out quickly. Under enormous pressure from the Spanish midfielder he managed to control Pickford's throw and lay it off perfectly to Palmer. Palmer then found Saka out wide. Bellingham was then the only England player who drove into the penalty area in order to give Saka an option. When Saka played the ball to him his lay off to Palmer was so perfect that Palmer only had to run onto it and slide it in the direction of the goal. It seems like Bellingham's rise has been so meteoric that many people just want a reason to bring him down. The fellas top drawer. Boost him up, don't try to tear him down. You can't win us the World Cup because you ain't on the pitch. He can.
Bellingham has been bang average for 5 months.
Bellingham PR spotted
@stnbch3025 You clearly are not a fan of the praise Bellingham has received since breaking into the England team hence why your retort has nothing to do with what this video is about. Him being, in your opinion, 'bang average' for the last five months doesn't take away from the fact that he scored two vital goals in this tournament and was instrumental in our equaliser in the final. You're conflating two things mate and unless you're a Real Madrid fan how he has been playing for them isn't a matter to overly concern yourself with. No one said he was Lionel Messi. He's a just turned 21 year old who, like 90% of the players in the tournament, probably came into the tournament carrying some injury or other.
@georgemark8593 The first England game I remember watching was England v Italy in 1977. I've seen them all. Keegan, Robson, Lineker, Gascoigne, etc. I'll criticise a player if the criticism is fair. I will also keep an open mind as to what a player is enduring. No one is 'rubbish' or 'not trying'. International football is hard because you have to play with what you have. It not the fault of our players that our country's journalists have an over-inflated sense of who we are. I'm not defending Bellingham because I'm a 'fanboy'. I'm defending him because he is being unfairly maligned. If you watch the final again you'll see for yourself how much work he got through. The occasion was too much for both Mainoo and Foden and he and Rice had to make up for that.
They beat England, Germany, France, Italy and Croatia!
They are definitely deserving the cup.
11 WCs combined!! And dunno how many WC finals there but a lot for sure
Jude has developed a bad ego and his attitude had changed. I hope he came back to be his real self and start performing for the team.
Mind that media focus will always exaggerate bad qualities over good ones. He just needs to learn that and apply accordingly. A lot of stars have PR people precisely for that reason.
Yeah he need to humbled a bit more at madrid,
Yeah he need to humbled a bit more at madrid,
Missigham has become a true Real Madrid player. He is all pride and cockiness
England must change their style of play which inevitably means a change of head coach. No title in 58 years is a national disgrace.
ITS coming home
Its coming home
Football coming Home 😂
Tough when EPL is such an open end to end style of game compared to international football.
Brexit means brexit
Sincerely, I have always thought that coaches and their tactics have a clear influence on how their team plays..... The ideal is to have the ability to adapt the systems to the players' profiles ...and to have the capacity to modify tactical designs throughout the match ..... In Spain and Germany, for some time now, coaches have been appearing who know very well how to make their teams play..... regardless of the names of the players....I think that some players of the English national team would stand out much more playing with Spain ...clearly coach the key...
Everyone is allowed to make predictions, but remember this is football, which means that teams and team spirit are more important than individual performances. Hopefully, Spain, with their attractive style, will be contending in the World Cup 2026. Favorites? Too early to talk about that.
I told my mates Spain would win before the euros started and I was laughed at. Now everybody wants to hop on the wagon

Maybe England's players just arent good enough.
Nobody deserved anything, you win cause you are good, you are the best, period.
When will it ever come home😢
Well, there are 2 French players who are now happy with their decision to become Spaniards.
Rodri deserve to win the player of the Euro. He has been the heart of the midfield for Man City and also Spain. Both coach bring out the best in Rodri. He links the attack and defense with right moves and precision. Giving assurance to the defenders and also the attacking players.
Olmo got robbed.
And the media still going to think that Rodri shouldn't win the ballon dor? Just like how they think a certain club in France will remain "useless". 🤣🤣

Hey Garrett, football did not come home.
Football went South, to the Gate of Spain.
Only countries from the southern part of Europe have won the Euros during the 21st century. Spain won it three times, Portugal won it once, Greece won it, and France won it once. England must look at their football academies and professionals in the mirror because it doesn't work.
England doesn't have the better players compared to Spain..they are not so good as the english public and press think..as long as they don't realise this, nothing will change there..
The Spaniards looked like they were selected from the same team based on their chemistry.
In fact, they come from 15 different teams.
@aha3885 I believe the more diverse, the better in this case.
If you have a significant big group people that come from a single team, and then another, it is more likely to cause tribalism in the NT.
But since most team have 2 representations on average, it's less likely to happen
@@ElJaztins Yeah but it works both ways.
In 2008-2012 most players came from Barcelona and few from RM and couple of other teams like Villareal, Atletico and Arsenal. But the majority was Barcelona. Xavi, Iniesta, Busquets, Pedro, Puyol, Pique, Fabregas and Villa and Alba were all Barca players. Which is half the reason they played well together because they trained together daily at their clubs and were all trained in the same system and philosophy.
It works both ways. There's no real magic formula to creating a successful side. There's different ways of doing it. But whichever way is chosen the players must have chemistry and gel well into a single unit. If they don't they just become a collection of individuals like we saw with the England and France team.
@avikellerman4539 By the end of it, though, it did start to weigh on them, and cracks were starting to form in the NT, especially during the height of the rivalry when Mourinho was the coach of Madrid.
Casillas was single-handedly the most important reason why solidarity in the NT didn't crumble. If it weren't for him, those players wouldn't have had the chemistry to play for Spain.
Yes they played like a Team all players supported each other
“They were all over him trying to kiss his face” Stevie is a legend

The best Thing English media can do to their players is NOT HYPE THEM EARLY AND A LOT
They are already started with Mainoo
Let these kids develop naturally
Has nothing to do with the media. They players should know themselves and improve and not keep getting big headed.
Germany fan here undoubtedly deserved win. Irrespective to what the referee had done ( or didn't do actually, and being unfair to Germany). Spain is the undisputed king of European football now at least. When never lose a point, beat 4 wold cup winners/ World class teams, and a World Cup runner-up on your way to the trophy says it all, Congratulations!
It very much felt like peak Madird / Peak Barca blended together.
They won the trophy the moment they were done with Germany, that was the final. It was their hardest game .
Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition
Paris, Rome, Buenos Aires then Madrid. Why is the parade ignoring London? 😁
I expected England, and the players, to bring up their playing level and then, to win Euro 2024. UEFA Euro cup is a highly prized world cup level tournament of the football national teams of Europe. For England: Their last trophy at the national level is World Cup 1966, played in England.

Wait until Pep becomes the Spain coach. International football will never be the same.
Wrong. The New style of Spain begin with Luis Aragones when Pep was nothing.
Pep is not gonna coach Spain, never. He is an pro-independence of catalonia.
But remember this aswell, Spain doesn't needs Pep.

Spain and spanish players are way ahead of the English players….both technically and tactically. The difference was clearly visible.
England were lucky not to lose 5-1 or so. Massive drubbing avoided. God was kind on them.
Many players become frustrated by lack of quality ball.
I think Olmo should’ve been given Player of the tournament instead of Rodri.
Ur thought is wrong. Rodri is definitely d most deserving, he was d engine, d general, d controller and d commander of d Spanish national team. Well deserved award.
Have you watched all the games??!?!??!?
Nah. Rodri is the man. But I agree in saying that Olmo was the biggest surprise for me. I expected Nico and Lamine to do well, but didn't expect this much from Olmo. Outstanding.

To be honest, how did England get to the final? They played horrible football. Their path to the final was much easier than Spain's
The only 45 minutes of football England played was against Netherlands. It's amazing they did get to the final. Same as last Euro at home. Easy path to the final.
English players are overhyped. England is overrated.
Even so, they do have talented players, but Southgate didn't set the team up in a way for those players to shine.
Southgate is out!!!
Excellent news. Now England just needs a good coach who can play to players strengths, stop playing Kane and then maybe win trophies
The shear arrogance calling tactical/possession football ‘boring’ you know how much they know about football. It’s the same ideology and style, just with better and faster wingers.
England fans and media hyped up so much and that’s the issue
I have to come to ESPN for honest analysis. English press have really pulled their punches, despite the whining from the England camp. Another wasted opportunity for England.
ESPN should turn comments off for videos from now on.
I really hoped to see Wharton to play. He would had made a difference.
Spain had better soccer brains on the field. And they have some of the most exciting players in the world... I'm surprised the guys didn't talk about Dani Olmo. That guy made it everything happen going through the middle of field. He was not only the one that saved the day in the last minute with that header off the line but he created so many wonderful things to the center of the field. I think he deserves as much credit as the wingers. It's so good to see players like that take a game over. Soain played with courage and bravery and creativity they played on the front foot and they were incredibly fun to watch. England would never have made it to the final if they were on the other side of the bracket. They were lucky to be there. And it shows that talent without the right mentality and the right team synergy isn't enough. It's brilliant move by the Spanish soccer federation to have such a gifted youth coach who's had so many of these guys at some point in their careers. He knows the players they all have had the same principles drilled into them. And it just worked!
England will keep losing as long as they keep playing reactive football. They were predictable.
Congratulations to Spain on winning Euro for record 4th time very well deserved they are best team in the tournament and Kane curse is real if England want to win trophies then Kane should not be in the team also Foden Saka
It couldn’t be more obvious England with Kane and without - the massive difference. He should have not played, England would have better chances.
From just news - Southgate resigns! very good news.
@@whitecrowuk575 is it true that Southgate quit?
@@hishaamhussain3786 yes - just now
@@whitecrowuk575 great news and Kane should leave the team as well he is cursed
EPL lost in CL. England lost in Europe
Maybe. Just maybe. Both are criminally overrated?
Jude Bellingham is forcing himself to be a great player not knowing u don’t force yourself to be a good and great player
In 2022 WC England got to the Semifinals, not Quarterfinals.
Quarterfinals mate
Delusional people believing English players are the best yet they never won a trophy in more than 4 decades.. No ballon d’or award to an English player for as far as I can remember. Y’all keep hyping your lads, keep hyping your league. sadly it’s the only thing stopping your success! When you start being honest with yaselfs, then maybe you can start getting it right!
