Nah, don't be daft, I wasn't confident, I just didn't think we were as bad as people made out. I remembered posting the Euro odds in a thread ages ago and a few posters mocking us as favourites, but didn't see your post until this morning!I will stick to my word
I couldn't see it at all ... the stars have aligned ..just have to beat the Italians now
Be the best 100 pound I've spent
The 53 pass move was just ridiculous. I don't think I've ever seen a team see out a game like that, let alone England!I'm surprised there is such a debate about the pen, he was running at high speed and had contact from two players. It's a modern pen but a pen non the less. We should have been given a stonewall one for the obvious foul on Kane and avoided extra time in the first place, can't believe VAR didn't give that. Although I do like how VAR has been used this tournament mainly sticking with ref decisions unless it's a catastrophic error. Denmark probably had the better of the ref with a few soft free kicks and their goal shouldn't have stood.
Schmichel had a brilliant game, great saves from Sterling and Maguire. Love how Kane has grown into the tournament and got going at the right time but Raheem is just unbelievable at the moment. Unplayable since the start of the Croatia game, if we win it he should get player of the tournament as it feels like he's dragged us through on his own at times.
The team is just playing like such a unit, the last 5 minutes of extra time was just scintillating possession football done the right way.
Got to admit I was worried at times, it was a lot about the midfield battle and Delaney and Hojbjerg are solid players who got the upperhand on Phillips and Rice for good spells in the first hour. Kane dropped in and helped out brilliantly at times though and took the Danish pair out the game and popped balls round the corner to Saka and Sterling and that was doing the damage. Credit to them but we were the stronger side in the end.

I mean reciprocal rivals.
Lol - he said Pep should hire Big Sam as a defensive coach. They went on to win the league by 12 points conceding the fewest

England are not seen as one of Germany’s main rivals, the ferocity around it is very one-sided. Germany’a biggest rivalries are with the Dutch and Italians.Germany probably, but Scotland personally I couldn’t care less about. They make absolute fools of themselves

Yeah the German/Italian rivalry is bigger as well.Yeah they dislike the Dutch, it’s built up over here as a big game, it’s not for them

Surely our biggest reciprocated rivals are Argentina.

I’d pay good money to watch a SBT panel, not for the football knowledge though.I was on a ferry for one of our group games and had the pleasure of hearing his punditry following the game as I was watching on a stream for BeIn Sports. It was totally garbage. The panel were largely clueless and had Paul Robinson as the focal point with Zola making shit jokes with Andy Gray who looked pissed. SBT could put a better panel together.

England do tend to go relatively far in tournaments. It’s not just about being able to beat them, it’s about actually winning trophies and being seen as one of the best teams.I think that’s because it hasn’t been much of a rivalry for them. We beat them for the first time since 1966 in that tie. The odd friendly win or qualification humiliation doesn’t make up for beating you in knockout games.
The reaction in Germany has been that the loss hurt them a lot. If we started to make a habit of going deep into tournaments and beating Germany, the rivalry will heat right back up from their point of view.
They may want to do a little bit of research into the domestic Italian terrorism of the 70s.View attachment 20817
