The French take to the streets when the government tries to raise the pension age
This is what brings Brits to the streets
Britain is a racist country, more than you would ever think. You just have to scratch the surface with most people
but you can point to just as many good tactical decisions. Misplaced loyalty to out of form players? He values experience he kept faith in Pickford who hasn't made errors. Remember when Crapello picked Rob Green who had no international experience and he let the ball through his legs v USA...
What's the plans for haters (if we win) and have the open top bus parade?
I assume you'll boo Southgate and throw objects at him whilst holding the trophy aloft?
Oh please will you all stop with 'lucky' tag.
A team does not reach 2 consecutive Euro finals because they are lucky
A team does not win 3 consecutive matches from losing positions because of luck
Scoring in the last few minutes shows good fitness and battling to the end. When Man U did it they called it Fergie time, not that he was lucky. Cos his teams persevered and kept going to the last seconds, fighting to win
what people don't consider is Spanish players play their natural way like they do in la liga whereas prem football is very different to international football so they have play a different way that they are used to
oh i see, Southgate is really lucky, all other England bosses unlucky?
We won 1 game and scored 2 goals v USA, Algeria and Slovenia cos we were really unlucky?
consider this: in 2010 Crapello had the easiest group of all time:
England
Algeria
Slovenia
Yanks
Labelled "EASY", he managed one win and finished 2nd which meant we had to play Germany, who humiliated us
Southgate won his group, arguably harder, so we avoided Germany and took the easier...
So you wouldn't have picked a world class striker, a wealth of international experience, top bundesliga scorer with 36, could have broke the all time record had he not got an injury in the last few matches?
Good call
remember when we were 4-1 down to Germany and Fabio Crapello brings on Emile Heskey in the 85th minute? That was after we finished 2nd in a group containing USA, Algeria and Slovenia? That deserves criticism
There are so many examples of inept management decisions from former England...
