Clive Tyldesley is so far above any other UK commentator it's not even funny. A tragedy we don't hear him more often.
Watching the England game last night I wished it had him and McCoist on. Would have been infinitely more watchable.

Watching Portugal is watching United last season: no coherence, midfield wide open and impotent in front of goal.

England would play Slovakia
Southgate. :lol:

This guy has unreal luck in tournaments.

Really wanted to see England and the Netherlands as that would've been an interesting game.

Also it's a bit wrong Hungary have to wait around three nights just to be knocked out.

The guy who thinks your birth certificate has your current age on it? Nah

We got a result in the rugby world cup against Georgia and now losing in football. Bizarro world.

Im not sure how anyone can say that wasnt a penalty, the defender kicked the attacker in the ankle without getting anywhere near the ball.
I think most are annoyed that VAR decides to check that one while the most obvious and egregious shirt pull of the tournament so far was ignored.

There aren't a lot of things I'd want less from a referee than inconsistency.

Portugal were brilliant in the rwc. Loved their last minute winner V Fiji.
Same. I actually enjoy watching our rugby team than this Ronaldo/Jorge Mendes national team.

Slovakia will be far trickier for England than the Netherlands
Can't see it. England need to face a team who'll actually test them properly at the back and down the flanks. Slovakia's best players are at the back and in defensive midfield.

Imagine still being as much of a self centered bellend as Ronaldo at 39.
This is the thanks he gives to Martinez for being his puppet. That's why I said he should retired from the National team already. He thinks it's his team, not the country's team.
