    [Albion] Premier League 19-21/10/24

    Even so, the ref saw the incident and made his judgement, if he didn't see clearly that's when VAR should ask that he should a 2nd look. It's not their place to overrule and whenever the ref goes to the monitor - they ALWAYS give it, they never say their initial judgement was right, EVER?

    to be fair that was never a red card, another game ruined by VAR How on earth can they say the Bournemouth forward was denied a clear goalscoring opportunity? he was brought down around the centre circle !!

    I had an issue with in ear pods as they kept falling out and hurt after a few hours use so I bought a soundpeats open ear headphones which are mostly for joggers or cycling. They don't touch your ears and you hardly notice your wearing them, and they good for work meetings as you can still hear...

    I thought he was lucky? i'm confused :unsure: Anyway, contradictions aside, I believe those tactics have worked for Italy, I don't see their fans complaining

    The 1-5 v Germany, whilst an individual brilliant result, can only be heralded if it was the springboard for further success, but it wasn't, it was a freak result in an otherwise drab campaign. We needed an injury time Beckham goal to draw against Greece and rely on Finland stopping Germany in...

    Nice try, however, allow me to show you the errors in your judgement. A foreign boss has to be BETTER than an Englishman otherwise what would be the point? If the foreign boss only acheives the same or worse than the best available English boss then why get a foreign boss? Are we saying from...

    who would you say were better strikers at International level, in Europe around the same time, say, the mid 00's ?

    another way to look at it is.....because we won our 1st match and Denmark only drew, a draw between us and Denmark meant they would have to win to top the group whereas we only needed a draw. It was always in our hands, so respectfully, I think you are simply wrong

    Ah yes, the old 'Southgate is just lucky' chestnut, I beg to differ. Southgate's cautious tactics, whilst not pretty, ensured we won our group and hence, avoided bigger nation i.e. Germany, in the 2nd round = good management. Compare and contrast - Crapello 2010, despite having the EASYest...

    slight misrepresentation of what I said, i'm not merely cherry picking specific games, I am saying I only consider performances at tournaments disregarding qualifying. I don't see how, post poor tournament and assesing what went wrong, how we qualified for said tournament bears any relevance...

    [Albion] Thomas Tuchel **Appointed England Manager 15/10/24**

    I base my opinion of capello on his 1 tournament record, which was one of, if not the worse tournament performances of my lifetime. So therefore he is one of the worse England managers. The fact we clocked up wins against Azerbaijan, Macedonia and other non entities in qualifying is not a...

    No, let's have it right, you first peresented a table proclaiming Capello to be the best England manager ever, then when the stupifity of that is pointed out i.e. by that you are saying Capello was better than Sir Bobby and El Tel you disown the silly table and change your angle. and yes, I...

    I know, it's such a ridiculous appointment, you'd have thought the FA would have realised after Southgate that you don't need to have a succesfull record at club level to be an effective coach for England, especially when high profile predecessors with previous club success failed so miserably.

    [Albion] Thomas Tuchel **Appointed England Manager 15/10/24**

    So your definition of success at International level is based on win percentages which are mostly made up of results in qualifying and friendlies? and you would rate Capello as better and / or more succesfull than Venables and Bobby Robson?

    [Albion] Thomas Tuchel **Appointed England Manager 15/10/24**

    So what you're saying is stats i.e. routine wins in qualifying games against minnows and meaningless friendlies negates Rob Green - USA, stinking the place out and being boo-ed off in a bore draw against Algeria, finishing 2nd in the EASY-est group imaginable where, as a consequence, faced the...
