What was that Scotland player thinking making a challenge like that and in the penalty area of all places. He should be sent home on the first flight from Munich airport.

I think that he made the tackle because he wasn't thinking!!! And why send him back on the first flight when he can come back with everyone else next Sunday after the Hungary match.

Come on Pascal.

Pascal had more touches of the ball in his first 4 minutes than McGinn had in the entire first half

Low key a big fan of playing Gross and Kroos together, more rhyming midfield pairs please

 

[Dr Q]

Typical Gross corner there though

I’m sorry but you are so wrong- things have not got worse

Like I said earlier an England away day these days would be no different to a Brighton away day in Europe.

You do realise Scotland have football lads too ?? ( see Rangers fans In Manchester 2008)

The majority of England fans these days are there for a good old sing song, the same as Scotland fans.

These days there are many other countries fans travelling abroad that are alot worse than English fans !!

So maybe next time you decide to post detrimental things about English fans, maybe do your research first instead of trying to get a pat on the back reaction by calling out all England fans as gammons

I haven't called out all England fans as gammons and have clarified any miss-understanding pointing to the error being mine.

I'm an England fan myself, as were the families you saw.

But my point remains about the toxic interest our national team attracts. Just look at the flags of the cenotaph 'protectors'.

The behaviour of those who travel may well be a lot different these days, but I don't believe things are better at home. We'll have to differ.

Gross dictating play already. Great to see.

Typical Gross corner there though

Kroos takes Germany's corners

 

[Curious Orange]

Looks like our man is playing as the pivot in front of the centre backs. Plenty of time and space to dictate the German play from there.

God I wish Musiala had chosen England! Stunning player.

Mate you're talking about a tiny minority and labelling it a toxic interest and major problem, it isn't give it a rest now eh?

That's what I was trying to.

Body clock stuffed since getting back, so up for this game.
I thought it might be a bit closer, but when the the jocks start shifting goals the cards come thick and fast.
Would be nice to see Denis on with Gross for the last 10 mins.

I thought you were comparing England and Scotland fans attending games not ‘fans’ attending political marches ?

I’m going to leave it here.

Maybe read up a bit more about countries fans attending matches before labelling England fans as bald headed gammons

 

[The Fifth Column]

That's what I was trying to.

Not very well because you labour the point about toxic interest and flags etc and believing its no better here when in fact England is one of the safest places to watch a top tier football match and almost every other European country has got increasingly worse hooligan problems than we have.
