Happy that England are in the final but then I remember this probably means Southgate is around for another 4 years
Wonder if he’d walk away if he won. Leave at the top, drop the mic, would be proper hard. Southgate 2nd best England manager ever

Played in England at stadiums in England hence why it is called the EPL.
Everyone knows the ref didn’t actually give the pen at first right?

Of course not, they are too busy banging on about fixes and conspiracies
With the top team owners lifting their skirts at the super league and looking at ways for EPL games to be played abroad. Give it time….
Ref was dodgy but the penalty was the right decision.
Let's be clear, England are now two times Euros finalists, WC semi finalists, and narrow losers to the beaten finalists from the last four tournaments and we're all still subjected to the same drivel that it's arrogance that England fans and the media expect us to get to the latter stages.
Gee - whizz... It was a foul, therefore it's a penalty.
Certainly is
Well, in fairness I think he was just talking about having to pretend to run in so many games, period. And all that effort to convince teammates and coaches they are crazy and he’s actually playing well.
I would imagine it really is quite exhausting
Yeah, but they have Verstappen.
So moaning about sporting I justice really shouldn't be a thing for the Dutch.
I thought it was refreshingly honest.
Seriously though, after that koeman clear red and subsequent free kick winner in 93, I don’t have any sympathy for him
Ok so you are saying that maybe in the future it might not be the English Premier League.
Bit harsh there, he also said, lets not blame the ref right after.
Oh it was a penalty, Harry Kane actually scored it once he'd ran off the stud marks on his foot.
Hard and low to the keepers right, beautiful pen.
The Dutch were awful and incredibly negative. We played well first half - probably our best 45 minutes of the tournament - the second half was really not great, but it felt fantastic to get over the line.
Spain look unstoppable, but two finals and a semi-final from the last three international tournaments for England is impressive (not impressive enough to keep Gareth, though!).

Scouse mentality.
Oh yeah, if the American says so...
In the last World Cup we lost at the QF stage. A bit of a forgotten match but France played Morocco in the SF.
Do they have a “young player of the tournament” award for Euros? Although I suppose the likelihood of that going to anyone other than Lamine is slim … unless Lamine wins outright player of the tournament.
I think Mainoo has been getting plenty of flowers from this though. Everyone I know is talking about him. He’s definitely stood out.
Yeah TBF I think it's quite nice that he gets the occasional nice comment but the English pundits aren't coming out with the typical outlandish comments about any young player who does well.
Let him stay as under the radar as possible while being as good as he is.
It can always be called the EPL, thats the name of the product. How many English owners of the top teams ? How many of the apparant 600 million United fans are English ? Would you say man United is an English man United fan centric club ?
Bit by bit, the league/clubs sells itself off to the highest bidder. Even the footballs changed from blood and guts English physical high tempo stuff, to more European kind of flair stuff. It’s more a product than a league at this stage.
German club fans own the majority of their clubs. This is what should have happened in EPL but they didn’t care what money came into the sport.
Yes of course you're right. One should not drink and post.
h
i'm a dutch supporter but what were they complaining about at the end? i don't see what they could have complained about leading up to the goal
Well said!
You don't half speak some waffle. It's okay to just say "I don't like England" I promise you, no one cares.
Manchester Utd are a Manchester club.
The fact that I watch Hollywood movies says that Hollywood in America are doing something well they should be proud of. It doesn't say they start to become partially Manchester movies.
feck sake now this thread has got people arguing the Premier League isn’t English
Hope it doesn’t offend anybody
Koeman should be sacked just simply for not playing Frimpong.....how the feck do you leave him on the bench and not get on the pitch?????
feck sake now this thread has got people arguing the Premier League isn’t English
The level of salt is incredible
I don't know who you've been listening to but all the pundits I've heard have been impressed by him
Straws well and truly being clutched.
It's actually hilarious how shit but good Southgate is.
What Southgate has done, if nothing else, is foster a team spirit within the group, which has helped them get through the rounds, despite not really playing well. He is a decent manager, but not top class. He is a bit conservative, just keeping what we have, but when we have to, the players can play, and we do look good when we are behind and have to attack, but it seems that when we go a goal up, or equalise, we tend to drop back and not really go for another goal. Apart from tonight, when we should have been leading at half time.
Nothing out of the ordinary, just salty posters who dislike England.
It's 2024, you can expect to be cancelled!
