Respecting the Wout
Semi-finals | Spain vs France | Netherlands vs England
- Thread starter top1whoisman
- Start date
Come on Kane, dive to win another pen.
Kane and Bellingham absolute passengers here. Come on Southgate.
Kane is so shit.
England are having a hard time just breaking down this Dutch team that against Spain I really think they will come undone. Its like when Croatia beat us in the World Cup and then got destroyed by the French 4-1 in the final. I hope we dont end up that way if we manage to get through this match.
Kane is quite undroppable and Toney is the striker number two. Strikers number three see little play
Take Kane off and put Toney on. England will look and do better
He's been a net negative since the goal. Just keeps dropping deep to get the ball but then loses the ball. Just stay in the striker position ffs
We do miss our best midfielders. And you are right. We produce some really good defenders now but our attack is so bad.
England coach Hasselbaink never played much for our national team since we had even better players. He would be our star attacker (by far) if he played today.
Kane is having a mare.
In hindsight Xavi's goal was kind of like the mayo on a Frikandel.
Might be overreacting but, I feel like this has been Kanes worse match so far this tournament, even worse than against Switzerland.
Well this turned to shit.... felt like an eternity this second half and it's just hit 60 minutes, kin'ell.
If there are 20 broadcast cameras in this stadium, 19 of them should be removed. One camera angle for 90 minutes please, always.
Gapko is good
Kane doing a cracking Ronaldo impersonation here
All a bit slow from us 2nd half
Kane has to come off.
moments FC keeping Kane on. Just for that off chance he gets a goal 
He’s doing ok, he’s dragging his man away every time and making space in the centre. He’s trying a bit hard on the ball but the amount of running he does is insane, would be such a trial by fire to mark him because the one time you don’t track him someone will play him in.
Surprised Van Der Ven isn’t playing actually. You’d think he’d be a good counter to Kane’s pace.
Dumfries is fecking dire.
Oh yeah, we'll likely get beaten by Spain, no doubt. But you've got to be in it to win it!
Dutch have sucked ever since scoring
The Dutch need some pace on the wings to keep the English honest. They are playing on the counter without any pace in attack.
I honestly think the team would look better with Watkins upfront than with Kane. He's been poor all tournament.
Southgate won't be brave enough to take him off though.
A lot of passive Netherlands players.
England should be doing more right now, Netherlands look lost
You are overreacting and I've removed one of your likes for being so dramatic.
Pickford so bad at passing short that Stones is playing the role for him.... except it defeats the purpose.
The dutch really are shite.
We've got to get that 2nd goal to be sure though
We've got to get that 2nd goal to be sure though
England need to move it quicker. Not finding the space at the moment.
Hows that a foul from Foden?
Yep. They need to take advantage because Netherlands are clueless.
Mainoo and Kane look tired, time to make changes
They'll come alive for a bit in about 10 minutes.
Give us Ollie Watkins ffs
England slowly going to into their shell again.. should have gone for that second when they had a good spell before end of the half.
I cannot remember that Saka has even touched the ball in the 2nd half.
Bring on Toney
