They're gonna get racial abuse
Final: Italy vs England
- Thread starter ivaldo
- Start date
Terrible list from the manager
“It will build his character. He will manage England one day.”
Honestly despite sharing a club with some of you cnuts I'd expect better from rawk with all the anti English stuff im seeing right now.
Southgate channeling his inner choker to these poor kids. What a disgrace.
FORZA ITAIA!!!!!!
Same man, in your face Southgate you utter twit.
Slightly different scenario but Ronaldo grew big after the 06 WC where the entire England was booing him for the Rooney red card
No way Southgate chose that, he'd have asked the players, you could clearly see him asking Grealish before the shootout. Tough one to swallow.
Surprised Grealish didn't step up for the 5th. You just never fancied Saka there. Devastating.
I don't think subbing Sancho and Rashford just to take penalties was wise. The look on their faces before they came on - I was sure they'll miss.
It's down to Southgate, has to be.
The manager arranges it but do not forget that Harry Kane, Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, Harry Mguire all had a voice to volunteer to take the final pen. And they all looked at the sky while a kid was getting thrown under the bus. Disgraceful. He should resign if he as an ounce of honor in his body.
Cry more.
They already are - Rashford's instagram is flooded with it already
Penalties ...god damn it
As an Italy fan and somebody who really dislikes English football I surprisingly feel sorry. This is a good team and it is a bit cruel for them to loose like this at home after penalties. Destiny is cruel to England when it comes to tournaments.
Trippier knows.
Can't believe that was left to a 17 year old kid.
Best team won. England too cautious, too defensive.
It's coming to Rome. 
Absolutely. Italy tried to win it all along.
Self hating, euro trash.
Coming Rome, I guess. No pressing the italian possession costed you guys the cup. They were no match for your players fitness.
His shite tactics and use of the squad is the reason it went to penalities.
You have a vastly superior squad
Whatever your thoughts on Saka, putting him on such a high pressure penalty after his terrible performance is nothing short of disgraceful management.
And feck off to all the wankers who will inevitably give racist abuse to those three players who missed.

I feel bad for Saka. So much pressure, bloody hell.
School is out for the summer here, so if y’all need someone to come over and drop some racists on their heads, I am a plane ticket away.
Also can we buy Donnarumma please.
I thought he was nailed on NOT to take one, I couldn't fecking believe it when he stepped up fifth.
To all the posters (and that's the majority on here) who were supportive of Scotland, or at least silent when we went out: England were unlucky. You have a genuinely talented bunch of players who will come again. World Cup is only a year away, you're contenders.
To all those posters who only found their way onto the Scotland thread when we had went out: get in !!!!! England losing in the final on penalties - you love to see it!

Get fecked.
This.
Who looks at how Saka has played tonight and says THATS the guy to take a clutch penalty!
I'm fecking gutted.
Southgate fecked it with the subs. Was obvious quite quickly that the occasion was too big for Saka, and far too much pressure put on Rashford and Sancho for the shootout by leaving it so late to bring them on.

There is no logic in letting a 19 year old take the final kick. Poor Saka's confidence will be totally shot - did not deserve that.
What's wrong with wanting Italy to win?
Unreal if they are turned into the villains because of this. Very poor decision from Southgate and it should be on him.
2 saves for England. Should have been winnable because of that.
Sorry for immediately going for the doom button but if some idiotic supporters can trash their capital city before the match... I hope the Italian fans get out sharpish before the lager louts get to them.
But, bringing things back on track. England made a major tournament final again. It's a step up and these players are young. You just need a manager that makes better use of your attacking strength.
He couldn't take two.
Top pens those.
United all over that unfortunately. At least there's strength in numbers and it isn't just one player hung out to dry.
Southgate has fecking blown that, and I hope he gets called on it. He won't though, because the country led by the press went completely batshit mental for Churchill, St George and Sir Gareth. I'm absolutely done hearing about this now, onto United where we'll hopefully see Shaw and H kick on, Rashford to rediscover his touch and Sancho to prove Gareth to be a decent man, decent national coach as they go but absolutely not the fecking messiah he's being made out to be.
