I wish Foden got as much critisicm as Saka got when he stinks up a game
There hasn’t been a single moment in this tournament where Foden has deserved to start over Palmer
More dependent on Pep than Haaland
Lamine >>>>> all of em
Completely agree remember when their own fans booed and racially abused Saka, Sancho and Rashford
The Man City players don't play well outside of Man City that is what I noticed on their national side they all suck or just fall flat I been saying Jude is England's most important player and if Southgate was smart he'd build the team around Jude because he is what will get them the victory for England I think Foden is crack but he is no Jude and that's just facts
Should start Tony and Palmer over Kane and Foden, then you can bring Kane on as a super sub. Nobody else runs at and attacks the defense except Saka who just started this game for some reason.
Nah bro. Foden is a beast for City. He’s not finding himself with England unfortunately for him.
I was mostly fuming with Kane. He just wouldnt stay up top. I got so angry seeing him drop deep. He needs to stay up and get goals.
Hello Wrighty. I am James Butler.
Terrible commentary. Saka continuously roasted his defender on the right and put in beautiful passes - and none of the forwards ran on to the crosses. Saka was continually making chances but the forward line lacked the personnel and the system to capitalise
Na his delivery was bad on a few occassions.
He went past twice and his delivery was not that great.
@@CKD3332man of the match says otherwise 🏆
@shashwatrao6949 that's the same for all players, but Saka did get past defenders and put the ball across the goal numerous times, but no one was running in. Kane should have been there.
Facts, his deliveries weren't bad, it was a complete lack of movement from Kane in particular, like Shearer said 'sometimes it's the wide man's job just to get it in there'.
30 plus caps and We're still waiting for Foden do something more than a 5 yard pass in an England shirt.
Yeah he's decent at city but he's a passenger at best for England. But the pundits love him so he gets a pass.
Descent? Lol
He played from his preferred position but had nothing to show for it. They talk of Kane forgetting that Foden should be the guy creating the chances.
He doesn't do anything yet they say he is best no,10 in the world according to lineker
What can he do when there is never anyone ahead of him??? At Man City he has runners everywhere to support him. I've never seen such a static offence as England's. The only good moments are when individuals go for an offensive run!! There have never been any fluent offensive movements. Players like Foden can't perform with that type of management. It's sad for football that these types of performances are getting the results. The same goes for France.
@@yiannistsioukanis1307 What are you saying? Is he not the anchor in the midfield? The guy is just an average player being hyped unnecessarily.
Imagine constantly winning and someone saying you're "lucky" and "don't deserve to be where you are". Southgate is doing his job 💐. We've been spoiled by all these deep tournaments runs recently.
Remind me again how did Scotland and USA do ? Have France scored a goal that's not a penalty or deflection? Glass house
Craig burley has achieved nothing in his professional career.
Foden's had a terrible tournament. Offered very little in open play, but equally his set pieces have been woeful. For the semis, he should be dropped for Palmer or Gordon, but we all know that's not going to happen
Foden dictated the first half today. There's one huge problem, there's no target man, there's no Haaland, or Alvarez to play forward to. Kane drops deep and has got no legs to make runs through. 3-4 crosses into the box and nowhere to be seen. Swap him for Watkins or Toney and watch the shots on goal come
Yeh he hasn’t got enough “zip” on his set pieces yet he takes every single one
Lies. You're an Arsenal fan I guess.
Im a big fan of foden but definitely agree mate
@@dompricemusic2701 He looked really good first half. Shame he dropped off. Definitely feels like we need more runners for him to aim for.
It’s not pretty, but I’ve seen us play well and get knocked out. Still in it - semi final.
Just here to read all the crybaby comments from all the England haters.
Keep those tears flowing 😂😂😂😂
If that Shaqiri corner would have snuck in...... The scenes would have been insane.
😅
I had a feeling he was gonna score a worldy to win the game ..came so close
@@realtalk8665 Same. That little git got Mourinho sacked at United and I was expecting him to ruin my day again. 😂
Chicago Fire top boy! 🙏🏼
So glad it hit the corner of the bar and post!
It didn’t
Frank is just a Diva of experts.
Saka gets blamed directly or indirectly even after he was the best player in pitch.
What has Foden done till now?
Kane doesnt run, Palmer couldnt dribble past defenders.
Everyone needs to look at the game again. My point is on how ‘Saka’ was not playing as he does for Arsenal. He was cutting inside and passing back too early in the game yesterday. Instead of getting passed their fullback and getting crosses into the box for Kane. Kane is reliant on this service
Craig Burley is currently leading the contest for the most embittered Scotsman.
😂
Feminine male crying again
England are not playing well. They are lucky to get to the semi finals. Netherlands will beat England easily. It will be a France Netherlands final. It is not coming home.
.
He is very bitter and jealous of CR7, England etc.
@@koffichinovi7381 nobody is….england is dodgy and cr7 let portugal down
The phrase is “if you can’t be good, be lucky”
@11:53 You could clearly see Saka criticism when the guy is marked by 2 defenders all the time. Plus he did go to byline and cut back several times today during one on one situation, but no props. Mcmanman pushes Palmer prop immediately, even when the guy literally scored the most important goal of the match. SMH with this punditry. Utter shameful.
Pundits give there opinions that's what its about
Gary Neville said of Southgate today: 'He's the Englishman who has more experience of tournaments than any in history'. With all the stinging criticism he's received, we have to respect his consistent record. It's bizarre we're achieving this through such poor football but Deschamps is doing the same for France and look at his record. Southgate is our Deschamps.
They're both very consistent. Obviously Southgate needs to get a trophy though! Hopefully he does.
A Southgate vs Deschamps final would be the most boring thing ever. Pray we don't see that🙏🏽
He's right - He's out of line but he's right.
@@gdiggedy9 A trip to dignitas would be more entertaining 😮
@@tusharimdad9595 Southgate has a very basic philosophy on tactics - rewatch the sequence of actions and setup from the England players that gave Pickford the time and space to pick out that pass to Toney, who wins the foul; the switch from Saka to Palmer for the free kick; Kane and Eze planning their positions for the inswinger from Palmer that ultimately leads to Eze’s mis-kick to Kane’s winning goal against Slovakia.
That’s controlled randomness like making your own luck.
What he does have that’s consistently been a plus for England is a near scientific eye for detail on the fundamentals of tournament football, more so than about free flowing tactics and that’s just his way.
It’s worth pointing out that he is working with tools that might look good on paper but are clearly either tired, injured, semi-injured.
He’s England’s best tournament manager in my lifetime. Time will tell if he gets a trophy with this approach.
Craig is taking negativity to new heights. It wasn’t a terrible or rubbish performance today. England were playing poorly in the group games but let’s get real no team is playing genuinely flowing football except Spain. Expectations are unreasonable.
Frank and Mario are spot on, the amount of times Saka got down the wing into a position and put the ball across....... nobody was in the box at all, we have hugely talented forward players but they're not being used properly.
I want us to be exciting and I'd rather see us lose but go down fighting than lose because we're not being ambitious.
If penalties are a lottery, give me England's odds. Mzwa from South Africa.
Well said Mzwa
Ha!
You havent been following us for the past 30 years have you?
Since the penalty shootout began we have won a grand total of 3 shootouts in major tournements - Only 2 of them were in recent memory, 2018 and 2024.
We FEAR these shootouts. It is a matter of national heritage that we go out in tournements when it comes to dreaded penalties. Half the country has penalty PTSD.
Germany are proof penalties shoot outs are not down to luck
@@Whoami691 Talking rubbish. we have the best penalthy takers in european football all in the same squad now. why would you fear
England were favoured in penalties even tho it’s normal 50/50, slight favourites cos we have great penalty takers
As a LFC fan as soon as Gareth brought TAA at 115 minutes I knew he will take a penalty but in didn’t think he will take the last penalty
It was a win win for Southgate, if TAA scores then England go through and if he misses then he gets all the abuse and criticism instead of Southgate or one of his favorites like Foden or Kane.
@@kingdaymon6433exactly! Gareth is such a cowered coach. Why none of those so called “leaders” ever take penalties. Walker, shaw, Stones..It’s a,ways young ones.
@@Rain188u want defenders taking penalties ffs
@@leehaslam5751what’s wrong with that? Virgil takes penalties for Netherland, Frank just said that he always took penalties. Sergio Ramos took penalties.

@@thesaintst1851 he was a bit better than average, and not many have scored a goal in the world cup so
Incredible disrespect from Burley
He’s always like that… gets to be a lot after awhile
I like Burley but Dan Thomas is the host and needs to share the chats a bit better.
Watching England is like that 2014 Florida State team that stumbled into being undefeated despite their attempts to the contrary.
Rubbish… not playing at their best but they are resilient 🤡🤡🤡
@@thesaintst1851resilient? Rubbish - mediocre manager with overrated players

@@thesaintst1851not playing at what best??? When have they ever played at their best??? Complete bunch of BS! Overrated team with some unrealistic expectations
@@MrMoneyLong Overrated players 😂😂😂😂🤡.
Well Done to Saka 👏
I think this game was an improvement in the way England played. Tactically going with the 3-4-2-1 formation it looked better. The passing was much more fluid, with some great diagonal passes over the top to the wingbacks (and great first touches to bring it down). Mainoo and Saka played well, as well as the 3 centre backs. Only thing I would consider tweaking is starting Eze over Trippier to start with a bit more attacking flair on the left, with overlapping runs past Bellingham at the start
I'm not Southgate's biggest fan, but when all these pundits are slagging him off, he can turn around and say to them what have you guys done as a manager ?
His record so far is 1 World cup Semi Final and 1 World cup quarter final.
1 Euro Final and 1 Euro semi Final.
I mean call him lucky, fortunate or whatever you want, but no body else has done that for England for a very long time.
What has he done? I didn't realize you got a trophy for making the quarter finals and semis. If England wants to be a nation that never wins trophys then Southgate is the perfect manager for them. He has a top 5 player in the world in their position at ST, CAM, RW, RB, and CDM yet plays boring football and loses as soon as he runs into an elite team
@@kingdaymon6433Please can you do better?
@@kageryu311 If our standard for the manager of the national team is that he's better than some random guy on the internet then it explains why England win nothing.
Gordon needs to start on the left im telling you. He will run behind and cross with the left. Im praying he drops Foden for him as Bellingham looked better going foward over Foden.
Tony was ice cold.
Shaw is fit to start. He didnt put a foot wrong when he came on, made a few nice interceptions and didnt look rusty at all. He still had his pace from a stop start and has the delivery needed to cause problems.
Embarrassing punditry. Saka was clearly the best player yesterday but he still has to be benched for Palmer. He gets double teamed by nearly every opponent because he is England's biggest threat. Kane and Foden have been lukewarm. Bellingham is trying too hard
For most of the games at the EUROs apart from today at times, England have played some of the most boring football I’ve ever seen, yet they’re still in the tournament as they’ve made it to the semifinals following their penalty shootout win over Switzerland. They might actually win this tournament playing like this. A lot of people have pushed an agenda against Gareth Southgate and think that he’s a fraud and a terrible manager, but at the end of the day, he’s taken them to 3 semifinals in the last 4 major tournaments. After 5 games against Slovakia Slovenia Denmark Serbia and Switzerland, they have won 1 game in 90 minutes and have also scored 5 goals and they struggled in a group where all the teams that advanced to the next round failed to win a single game and they were the only team that won a game. This is 2004 Greece all over again, this is the exact same way that Portugal won the EUROs 8 years ago where they finished 3rd in their group and struggled to win games in regular time.
I don’t know how England and Gareth Southgate keep getting away with this as they were on the brink of losing twice against Slovakia and Switzerland, a moment of individual brilliance from Jude Bellingham and Bukayo Saka respectively leveled the game and they prevented them from getting eliminated because by now they should’ve gone home. When you have players of that caliber who can bail you out when your team isn’t playing well and produce a moment of magic out of nothing that’s the difference between winning or losing a major tournament as at this stage, still in the competition, it’s all about your stars they have to step up and deliver when the lights are the brightest. It’s easy to complain about the way that they’re playing as there’s nothing exciting about them and they can be a boring team to watch, but at the end of the day it doesn’t matter because they’re doing their job which is to win games and that alone has been enough for them to advance to the next round. Look at France for example, without a goal from open play they’re in the semifinals and I agree that when you play against better teams playing like this isn’t always sustainable, but football is about getting the right results particularly in a major tournament because some of England’s poor performances won’t even matter if they win the EUROs and even if they beat the Netherlands in the semifinals, they still have to play either Spain or France in the final. They’ve had an issue when it comes to penalty shootouts, it’s great that Southgate brought on the right players and all of his best penalty takers went first which set the tone for the team and they converted all of their penalty kicks. It’s funny how a team that hasn’t scored a goal from open play and a team that’s been hanging on might actually meet each other in the final.
Life’s too short to read all that.Just sayin’😎
you know tournament football is not supposed to be exciting right? clearly not
@@napolean_raglandyou’re not wrong, but part of major tournaments is about getting the results you need in order to advance even if the team doesn’t play well
@@tobaepebinuade5830 yeah and the result is not to get beat. The 2 most boring teams are literally both in the semi finals. you think there might be a connection there?

@@TangoBinAlsheed What result ? only result i know is 1966
I actually thought he got the substitutions right this time. Sure I would prefer he made the changes before conceding rather than as a reaction , but they were good subs
Go into detail, there has not been a single time when Saka does not get double teamed. All walker had to do is make an overlap runs and he is too scared to go up. Ben white and Saka do this time after time. Saka despite double teamed has looked most threatening, these pundit obviously are just watching the game but not understating it.
Exactly right. Walker offers absolutely zero offensively
they're waffling, one of saka's best games so far and they're still talking about palmer.
spot on! I get annoyed when everytime England had the ball there wa a thought to play from the back. Saka offered the most of attacking play and Palmer when he came in. England needs to try Anthony Gordon on the left flank in the next game.
If Kane keeps playing we might as well park the bus and practise taking penalties.
I love listening to you, much more objective and honest than the BBC guys who said England were fantastic, which is nonsense.
Fair play to beautifully taken penalties with composure, give 'em that.
this is turning into one of the worst football tournaments i have ever seen. Criminally disgusting pedestrian football from France and England to get here. Both should have no business to be in the semifinal. The sad thing is Portugal was just as horrible to watch. Other teams have been almost as bad. The Netherlands have improved but even they were horrid in the group. Spain is the last team left playing proper football
may the best "worst" team win then...🤣🤣🤣
Turkey have been a good watch. Sad to see them go.
Part of that blame goes to the grueling schedule a lot of these players have. 60+ games a season for these guys, of course they’re not going to have anything left in the tank. And we are also talking about players having 60+ games for 8-12 seasons and more.
The group stages were great with teams like Romania, Turkey, Georgia, Austria etc all balling out, but as soon as the QFs rolled up and nearly all the exciting teams were knocked out it's been dire. Portugal vs France followed by England vs Switzerland were probably the worst QFs I've ever watched. At least Spain vs Germany and Netherlands vs Turkey were good, but those semis might be a hard watch with France and England, and a France vs England final I think is the most likely final with two anti football teams with terrorist managers and tactics.
@@bigmaguire9714its just that both teams play very safe very clinical protective football. I understand its not fun to watch

Guys, England played a very good game today. Many tipped Switzerland to make it to the semi or final because they have been so good. I am surprised about McManama analysis. Quite different from what I saw today
Because the are bitter. They hate Southgate.
These highly talented players play so miserably that you can easily leave the telly, cook and eat a 5 course meal and come back and you've just missed nothing. You obviously have no idea about football... let's say of beautiful football
@@diligenceeke3023He seems like a bitter Scouse idiot!
The difference between England team and Man united is ANTONY
Improvements this game: Southgate's overall tactics and formation; Saka, Rice, Trippier, Foden, our pens.
Problems still remaining: Kane, Bellingham, subs on too late, not enough shots on goal, not enough high tempo, not enough clear chances created.
Overall, acceptable progress but not enough to win the tournament or even beat Holland. Worth celebrating but much to improve still.
A lot of discussion about the penalty takers but barely mentioned Pickford’s save that made it all possible.
No keeper had saved a penalty for England since Seaman until Pickford and now he's saved what, 3 or 4? More if you count the Nations League. He's been terrific at saving them. Much better than the keepers we had from the 2000's up to 2016. Great stuff.
That was such a lousy PK, I would have stopped that one.

@@markdisney260 Who cares if he keeps doing it for England.
Probably I am the minority, but I was enjoying England - Switzerland first half more compared to Germany - Spain first half. There was free flowing football for England - Switzerland first half even with less goal scoring opportunity. While Germany - Spain first half was full of fouls and it was unbearable to watch. The game only came to live after Spain scored the first goal and Germany need to react.
It must be breaking Craig’s heart to see England progress. Are the Dutch great, are France great, no. Spain are the quality team but there is no guarantee of success here. It’s fun to watch.
Let them keep crying.
What game did these folks watch. This was a very exciting game. England played well

Let's be honest, England were a lot better today than in other games, Switzerland were just better on the ball, they were penetrating lovely, and meeehn their penalties were top notch, England are being saved by individuals

He is thinking about how he will deal with his 2 baby mamas of England exits.
Walker has lost a yard and as his game is based on pace...
Im from england and we are absolutely scumbagging, our luck runs out against netherlands
Sooooo Southgate has led his team to a world cup semi final, Euro final and now a Euro semi final by being a bad but lucky manager who keeps getting "bailed out" of bad situations by his players or sheer luck. If you actually believe that, wouldn't you want him to continue to be your manager so your team continues to be absurdly lucky? His era certainly seems better than any era of England team I remember. England used to have problems even qualifying for competitions. For example they didn't even participate in Euro 2008
As a non English person, I think any fan has a right to see it in phases. Southgate brought stability and that can't be underestimated.
At the same time, however many years in, you'd expect him to know how to make his team better in the final third by now. At least show a method even if it isn't Guardiola's barsa to name a random example.
Southgate has had a majority of easy draws in his tournaments.
They struggle when they're against above average teams every time.
Sven and Glen Hoddle had Group Of Death type draws.
Put what little brains you have together and think instead of being an emotional fan boy 😁
@@Iron-Bridge it would take a lot of imagination or sheer stupidity to call an Iranian "the fan boy" of the England national team manager. In your case, I'm guessing it's the latter rather than the former.
England could win the tournament and ESPN would still find a way to hate. He’s the most successful England manager in 50 years, that’s just a fact.
@@Iron-Bridgenot his fault he gets easier draws .. although I thought Switzerland were meant to be better ...that tune has changed quickly
England and Southgate should use this opportunity of lifetime. England played good, played worst in the past but they never had this kind of momentum. Luck, momentum and squad, bench - everything on Englands favour
Nobody's talking about how Stones should have stopped their goal. Unacceptable defending - he should have easily blocked that assist.
Kaunsa should've blocked the cross as well. In the last two games, the defenders have made fundamental mistakes that took the players into extra time. This shouldn't happen lest the players run out of energy in the semis.
Saks seems such a nice person. I hope he can spend time with his family after Wednesday.
Not a single Englishman on the panel.
Scouse doesn’t count.
Dan Thomas?
McManaman is spot on. Get him in more often.

@@edmondomlauhe is tho
These pundits are so negative. Im not blind, England haven't played football befitting of the talent and Gareth is definitely not as proactive and tactical as he could be and we have not played to our full potential. However, today i saw our best game. If we can move forward, not mess around passing to pickford every 5th pass, and utilise the bench then we can win. We moved the ball forward more in this match than any of the others. Also these pundits seem to forget how overplayed and exhausted these players our, give them a break
Don’t expect any England positivity on this channel, they exposed themselves years ago.
englands players are Not overplayed compared to other teams. just a lie
120min and England got xG of 0.66. That is atrocious. I can only imagine they will get spanked in the semi final or finals like always if they play like this 🤢
Best game - Yes. But still really poor. We created nothing again. No movement, all the players just standing around not knowing what to do. Just embarrassing. The Swiss knew what they were doing at all times. If they had some decent forwards we would have lost that by a few goals.
It wasn't that bad, it was a massive improvement over the last. Everyone expected England to lose. The Swiss were expected to win easily. That didn't happen. You can't go from terrible to world beaters. They was more positive, getting the ball and spinning.
My son loves watching tournament games with me. But he couldn't watch England. He can't watch England play. Because he gets so bored. And I totally agree with him. It's just not fun soccer to watch. They're too careful. Especially for talented they are.

Performance was better, formation seemed to work better. Shaw it turns out is able to run, even broken limbs heal faster than 4.5 months. I guess he gets paid no matter if plays or not. Anyway, not sure why Switzerland coach hadn't used Shaqiri earlier, he's capable of creating a chance at any moment, why bench such players, even if not in prime of career anymore. Southgate did well, had the guts to change formation and was pacing along the touchline like most managers do. Just the subs were as usual too late, pro active managers start subbing usually around the 60-65 min mark (or few min earlier), especially nowadays when you've got 5 subs allowed (+1 in extra time). Got great talent on bench, use them. Not sure what he sees in Foden cause that guy doesn't deserve to start, he's been very poor whole tourney. Got Palmer, Gordon, Watkins- who doesn't have to play as 9, give them more minutes. I'm quite sure England is going to beat Holland and reach the final. Bellingham is world class btw
Every successful manager in the history of football was "bailed out" by their players scoring goals!
It's not the same not everytime
Carlo ancelotti every year tbh
Southgate has realised you defend your way to finals in tournaments. Terrible to watch but it works!
Meanwhile, Deschamps for France is taking a similar approach. Both these teams can play defense and still edge out wins, but for how long? At some point, they need to be clinical on offense (especially France) against the remaining teams.
If England face Spain in the finals ... they're going to get proper smack down
England will maul Spain. Germany would be a tougher opponent to England than Spain.
England will be more dangerous against a team that attacks them more
England need someone up front with Kane, he is so isolated !!!!!
Burley true colours coming out now
Bitter jock
Its the natural state for them, the whole country has terminal little brother syndrome.
God bless Scotland
Always has been. Except when he was earning a fat wedge in England.
@@doncar9Scotland lasted 9 days lol
Pretty solid midfielder in his day in my opinion
I'm convinced that if England does win the Euros, this panel will find a way to remain negative about it. 😂
England is like a F1 car with Mazespin behind the wheel
Oh please shut the f**k up! Southgate is doing the best he can ..Some of the players are OVERRATED ASF!
Mr bean at the wheel
With a better coach would smash the Euros...
@dexio8601 "a better coach." stop it😂 maybe you all can admit your players aren't as good as you think they are too
@@bubblenugget777 The managers at the worlds top teams play them week in week out,and pay good money for them.
Well done. Need to win 2 more penalties. And will be coming home. Lets keep hoping for the miracles as always so far
I am sick to the back teeth of having to listen to all your Scottish pundits constantly shitting on England.
I love it every time England win, and hearing them cry. And now Switzerland are farmers apparently.
@@AlexOjideagu2 Scots are mad their team is full of a bunch of muppets.
They should do an analysis of Craig Burghley performance in the group stage of the 98 World Cup. Laughable.
I am sick to the bottom of my feet of having to listen to all of you English fans constantly cheering and defending mediocrity😡
Don't watch then
To be fair to Southgate, he's never been scared to blood the youngsters, which is giving them big game time experience, and confidence, the penalties being an example.
Craig burley wants to speak all the time like how Ronaldo wants to take all the free kicks.
He loves the sound of his own voice
Trent, Palmer and toney should all start next game
I hope that the English coach makes good use of the best players in the world , it's like having a Ferrari while driving it like Nissan 😂
And the sound of starting the engine frighten Southgate
Overhyped...
Best players in the world based on what?
But so many of them look knackered. Bellingham and Kane in particular.
@@diligenceeke3023 come on the majority of them are playing in the premier league bro
Watching paint dry is more entertaining than watching England in this tournament! If Holland dont run them over in the semi then Spain will in the final!!
It will be a farce and a discrace if this England team playing football the way it is wins this tournament.
ITS COMING HOME - LOVE THE TEARS HERE 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Saka sent ball after ball into the danger zone and Kane was no where . Southgate needs to start Watkins ahead of Kane.
My word if Craig isn't a salty Scotsman i don't know what is, 😂he's usually pretty neutral, but tonight he's really going in on England cause he thinks they might actually fluke there way..
Netherlands Spain final
Nope
France and England
These so called experts are talking like England got dominated...i must have watched a different game!... England played well against a very good swiss team...yes England can do better in attack but still for large parts of that game England controlled the tempo... these experts just don't like being wrong
PLEASE! Bring in more MACA. Charismatic pundit and former player.
As Charismatic as a brick.
All he did was moan & cry about England.
He probably said exactly what you wanted to hear.
Also "and former player".
4/5 on screen are former players with the other being a host.
@@MRBp2024 He criticized Southgate's shabby team and you're unhappy. Sorry mate.
England is waiting like Tiger waits and attacks
Craig ‘bag of lemons’ Burley
ESPN really is clueless having a Scots man criticizing England
And another English man is there watching him
Agreed what an idiot
lol nobody in the world is enjoying this english version of football... there goal was the only shot on net all game. has been painful to watch
Even you see England is playing bad and at the end of the day his job is to speak truth
As a 🇨🇭: we should have won 😂
Now I’m going for you guys 🏴
After 🇩🇪 went home as well
My question is how Southgate gets lucky by taking England to 3 semi-finals of the last 4 major tournaments. England has had great players in the past with better coaches and got nowhere...
Because of some strange sequence where for those tournaments,they have ended up on the weaker side of the bracket….In all‼️
England are not better than Portugal,Germany,etc,yet the latter two are out‼️
Because we faced much tougher opponents and got knocked out.
You don’t go through by being entertaining you do it by finding a way to win. It’s a results business. Burley neither entertained or won in the game 😂😂😂
