Fair fecks to Iceland by the way... must be a party over there.
England vs Iceland
- Thread starter 032Devil
- Start date
no... play drinkwater, vardy, rashford and you do have a better mentality.
however, playing with wilshere, rooney and sterling is really awful decision making.
I think he is being ironic, DT, but you can never be sure these days, to be fair
Got to hand it to Iceland, population of 330k. Just mental. Reaching the quaterfinals alone is a massive success for them regardless of what happens next. Stuff of fairytales.
Congrats!
This is so fecking awesome!
Can't still believe it.
And we bloody well deserved it as well.
I don't even understand how Kane was allowed to play so much after a dreadful first match in the group stages. Him taking set pieces is beyond mental too maybe time to update the Houllier smiley
maybe time to update the Houllier smileyNope, Roy managed the transition from our last generation to this fresh bunch. He did a good job not dropping any direness, divanicity or spiritisciousnous. He managed to maintain a high level of deeply rooted problemisciousity in everyones mentality. He's a true Master of Transition!
They claimed on talksport that his speech was written in advance.
so he quits..
why the feck not do it before the tournament.
any of us here could have managed the England team better.

I was hoping for an England/Ireland QF. Ah well. Good luck to Iceland v France. How are they so fresh at this stage of the tournament?
Lee Dixon, "We go again."
England loves a hyperbolic cliché.

Proud to be an Englishman tonight. We left nothing on the pitch and you can't fault the effort either. We tried absolutely everything, standing still, looking gormless, falling over the weird round thing - the lot. It just never quite fell for us is all.
He was going to retire no matter what the result.
The moment we go out of the tournament (or win it), he will announce his resignation (and read out the pre-prepared speech).
I don't think its a losing mentality - he was merely decided before heading out to France, that this set of games would be his last as England manager.
Cant believe this old fart was the coach of England for all this years... such a clueless character.
Well that was a complete embarrassment.
Ta da woy you useless owl faced prick. A manager who when give. His biggest just job at pool fecked it up so badly even the scousers hated him.
Only have to look at Eddie Jones for an example of how to motivate and coach a proper team. And he's an Aussie
Rashford showed in 4 minutes why he should have been on from the start. I am too angry to post any more. In the words of Del Boy, I might have a Connery.

Whoscored have just said that Rashford completed more successful dribbles than any other play tonight.
Jesus wept.

If this was about them being 1-0 down for 23 minutes or whatever, then going on to win 7-1, then yes, spot on. Even when they were down, and watching the game unfolding before their eyes, with England being shite and Iceland playing well, they still had their misplaced sense of arrogance.
I used to root for England, until I noticed things like this happening throughout all these years I've watched football.
That's why I never liked England team. Always over hyped, usually without a reason and pundits speaking of opponents like it's still 19th century and English are the only ones who know how to play football.
Brilliant! I´m delighted for you Icelanders.The moment of the game was the defensive run made by #7 (I think) in ca the 88th minute. From Englands box all the way down to Icelands box in full sprint to avoid a 1v1. Absolutely fantastic stuff. Such a manifest to the extreme work ethic in this team.
In contrast to Greece in 2004, I´m rooting for the underdog - hope they go all the way.
His post-match presser was so lame. "These things happen". "Thanks for a wonderful 4 years".
The guy's a joke!
Absolutely hilarious.
People keep saying there's only 300,000 Icelanders. The feckers are EVERYWHERE. The country must be totally empty.
Roy Hodgeson for Prime minister, he's the man to take us out of Europe..

Maggie Thatcher, as they say in your language in the boxing bars around Madison Square Garden in New York: Your boys took a hell of a beating! Your boys took a hell of a beating!
That's how it feels to be English this week.

LOL, you've had a bee in your bonnet, or should I say a semi for me since that last tournament but lets be honest, England are better than Ireland AND you support one of our clubs, so, who really wins....
Embarrassing and it is ironic considering what is happening with Brexit. This month has not not been good for England.
Tyldesley is a clown. He can't keep his anger in check when England do crap, he shouldn't even commentate on the national team IMO.
