Really? He was shite
I think you're right, wingy. Must admit I was struggling to put my finger on that performance - Hard to watch at times but I think it was essentially an exercise in grinding down the opposition.Out Germaned the Germans.

When a man has experienced the darkest places at the highest level you have to think he must know better than most. He just must. I've knocked him over some selections, but in reality, what right do I have? Fair play Southgate. Congratulations on the redemption. That drink will taste good tonight.
I have nothing to get over, it’s not me with a whole omelette on my face, it was you hyping up Capello as a much better England manager
Pedant objection - Hitler was Austrian. Goebbels, Goering and David Phillips on the other hand...Adolf hitler

That bloke from The marathon man
Your boys took a hell of a Beating
No way?
And the real point is who would you replace him with? If it’s England only what is there?
I thought Sven was a pretty good manager who got into the England way and tournament games and we were unlucky against Brazil - cappello was horrendous
Who do we want from these two?
I think I’d rather have Sweden, Ukraine are a bit unpredictable and just throw people forward all the time
Surely football is all about winning as a fan and player.I don't know never been a fan ..
Maybe I should come round
For me I struggle to enjoy negative football , I guess sometimes you have to balance negative tactics and results..
I'd rather win the euros full stop and if that's done by playing like arsenal in the early 90s then so be it
Yea cappello was horrendous .
I'm not in the english only camp.
I'm not currently calling for Gareth Southgate to go either ..I don't particularly like him , his style of football or his decision making all the time .. cost us against Croatia in 2018 and Holland in 2019 .
And if he wins the euros then fuck me , we've won the euros .
I don't think il ever warm to Gareth Southgate though .
In the unlikely event they do a bubble type thing like they were going to do for the Champions League Final then yes 100%. However the FA emailed us to say they won’t be getting an allocation within a few minutes of the final whistle which stung a bit but was expected. Really don’t want to risk missing a potential (potential being the word!) semi and final due to quarantine.Are you going to Rome?
It's all part of the cultural experience - Pre match meal of deep fried mars bar washed down with buckfast.Ground looks empty, shame for both sides they’re having to play in Scotland

Before you signed up to this place I explained in a fair bit of detail the issues I have with how Southgate set us up, wanting us to play to our strengths especially against weaker sides and so on. There's countless people here who were bored stiff watching us for most of that game and the 3 before, you don't go after any of them.
As it turns out there is more than one way to win a game of football. But it's the same as on the CCFC match threads, 'you hate it when we win', 'you want us to play 10 strikers LOL' blah blah blah. It isn't clever, it's just being a total cock
He’s also removed two of our biggest mental scars as football fans- he’s beaten the Germans and won penalty shootouts
Can never understand that.You can win football matches but still not enjoy whats on offer .
Example - man utd fans with mourinho

McClaren worse for me.You didn’t rate Capello though? He’s the worst manager of England in my lifetime
We had 5 defenders and two holding midfielders in front of them today. Don’t know about you but I enjoyed the game!You can win football matches but still not enjoy whats on offer .

You are judged in tournaments - it was an utter shambles
Worse than
Taylor
Hoddle
McClaren
Hodgson
Revie

McClaren couldnt even get us to a tournament to be judgedYou are judged in tournaments - it was an utter shambles
