There have been a few good games in this tournament, but I've not enjoyed it as much as others. That's why the 'football first' part of me is pleased the Spanish won. I don't think the disparity in the draw halves helped either.

Englang has not got one player who can keep the ball against quality opposition , they give the ball away too often and have a defensive manager, plus this country no longer produces winners , no one is allowed to lose anymore at schools , until this changes we will never be winners

Eventually the luck had to run out - and then you were left with, well a clueless, inept manager

Spain have so many young players, we might be in for another period of Spanish dominance.

Nah, that was a disgrace. Made a bog standard team look world class. Southgate lucked his way back into the game and f***ed it, again.

All these players that are cocky twats playing for their clubs did f*** all again. f*** them all.
You'll feel better about it tomorrow, bud. Yes, we did luck our way there and, looking at it differently, Spain won it for football as a whole. I think it's been a very negative tournament.

The players worked within the system and it didn't suit them. I would never challenge their commitment to the cause.

Strangely i feel no emotion at this loss, years ago probably but its a case of oh well 🤷

Edit, now if that was Brighton in a cup final, probably structural damage to my house and a lengthy ban from here 😉
I think we would have been a bit sad had England deserved it. But they really didn't. Their challenge should have been euthanised earlier.

“I want you to be grateful that you're going through this sad moment with all these other folks. Because I promise you, there is something worse out there than being sad, and that is being alone and being sad. Ain't nobody in this room alone. Let's be sad now. Let's be sad together.”

What's even more frustrating is that that tournament will be considered a success by the media, they won't hound Southgate for getting it wrong. We were dogshit all tournament, it was pathetic. We were lucky, Slovenia should have knocked us out.
I think you mean Slovakia. But I got Venia and Vakia mixed up to the point that I didn't know who they were playing as each match looked the same.
