Quarter Finals

[Papa Shango]

He should have achieved more with that group, it’s a psychological issue with England, until they bridge that they will be predictable in going out in tournaments like this.

Its hard to think of a better opportunity then this, Germany hit the skids, Brazil and Spain taken out, no Italy, France ravaged with injury, Morocco in a Semi, massive opportunity gone missing. Also that could be Kanes last World Cup, certainly in his prime.

Where do England go from here…..Poch, can’t see it.…Eddie Howe if he was getable I think would be the archetypal FA choice.

Mourinho will win something with them one day. Once he is bored of having a real job anyway.

Winning international tournaments is hard.

Gerrard ?

 

[Alan Whittle]

Not sure if he was just having a breather or if England did a good marking job on him but was surprised by how quiet M’bappe was tonight.

I was impressed by Kyle Walker in every game he played. Certainly had a decent game tonight v M’bappe.

Gerrard ?

Potter once he is inevitably binned off at Chelsea for not being Rinus Michels.

Just there to absorb focus and create worry, IMO. Great asset for a coach.

Mouhrino is a shout, he’d strangle the life out of games in a World Cup, didn’t he always say he had ambition to manage Portugal. I think he’s clever enough to have waited until Ronaldo exited the scene. Team there to be developed in Portugal.

Anyway it was a good set of quarter finals with fair results really. Tournament is set up nicely n

Up where? Only got so much TV coverage to keep the chattering classes appeased and tick the diversity boxes, it,s bog standard quality with little following.

How does your significant other put up with such sexist views?

 

[Neiler]

Gerrard ?

Aw man I’d contribute to his wages, just to see it. lol

Fixed that for you.

As good as some of our players our, we haven’t got that game changer (saka is our best bet) but he’s no Rooney or Gazza, I miss us having players like that.

I think that's the damning issue there for Southgate. I was always sure that France even with those injuries would beat England. They have no self-belief. That comes from the manager.

Also, he's been waffling on about building a great young side for the future. The fact is, this England side arn't great. They aren't good enough to win a tournament, despite all the BS from the media and their fans (on here too shamefully).

After about 6 years he has nothing. That lot are nowhere near it.
