Euro 2024

[Christ in Shades (art)]

England always have their back to goal whereas our opponents don't that's what they are having so much joy.

[Million Dollar Babies]

Remember how much possession England had in the first 10 minutes, must have been 90% at that point. The fact it is now 50-50 shows how poor it's become

No, unlike yourself, or your speakers are duff. The England boos of the Serbian national anthem were belting out of my high quality audio system.

Don’t be a dick they were clearly booing our National anthem before it started. Are you seriously saying you missed that? And has speakers got to do with anything?

Regardless, we should have more class, lead by example.

[stanton1969]

is Alexander Arnold doing on the pitch? Apparently because he is the best passer in the world. Rubbish. He’s added nothing whatsoever.

Nope I’m sick of this constant shit we need to take the knee we need to show class we need to be more understanding. Disrespect us and get disrespected simple. Are you not sick to the back teeth of this country being ridiculed and mocked constantly? I am. Why do we have to “accept” this when other countries are free to embrace their culture. Absolute hypocrisy

[Million Dollar Babies]

We've had 4 shots in 70 minutes. Piss poor

You mean Trent?

[goodbet]

Typical England manager, we go off the boil and our manager will not make a change until Serbia have scored.

Lol

[jim59]

No left hand side totally unbalanced

[Oblong of Dreams]

We've gone from playing like prime Lee Clark Town, to first-season Carlos Corberan Town, to Darren Moore Town.

Seems massively overrated, but immune from any media criticism? I was staggered when Shearer just commented that he'd 'done well out there'.

[Amigo]

It is a bit painful to watch. With the individual players this should be pretty straightforward especially after going ahead but, no, we have to plod through and make it difficult.

We don't have to win by 4 but it would be good to put down a marker and make the other big teams panic a bit if/when we end up playing one but I can't imagine any of the other favourites are watching this shitting themselves at the prospect.

[Million Dollar Babies]

He's got talent like Eze, Mainoo, Palmer etc and he's bringing on Gallagher and Bowen.

[markthehorn]

We’ve seen this sort of performance in the opening game before .

1990
92
96
2000
2006
2010

etc .

Liverpool love-in? Square peg in a round hole just to get one in the team.

Correct. I don’t get how Gallagher gets near this squad. Workmanlike player.

[Oblong of Dreams]

Let's take off Bellingham...

Nice one Gareth 🙄

[galpharm2400]

Hardly anytime in this second half have England had a player or players in front of the ball, either in our half or theirs.
Its too slow, its too condensed and its too negative even when we get some time and room.
As soon as we score its back off, slow it down even more and drop 20 yards.
Phil Foden playing second left back is depressing.

[terriersyndrome]

Typical Southgate team this. Slow, laboured, cautious, negative shite. Look at the attacking talent he has at his disposal yet he'd rather bore everyone to tears.

[soccarena]

Southgate is said to have worked wonders with the spirit in the England squad.

Hopefully the next manager will do the same with the football.

[deo1]

I’ve just remembered why I don’t watch England like I used to. This game is boring and we look clueless. Not a massive fan of Southgate and on this showing I know why. Boring!!!!!

[Million Dollar Babies]

We've spent the last 20 minutes diving to slow the game down against Serbia. Desperate

[NewMill Terrier]

Really strange to be so direct when playing against one of the biggest, strongest teams in the tournament.

Lots of positives though....

Bellingham has everything and could drag us deep in to the tournament on his own.

Saka was very good first half.

We've defended very well. Rice has been excellent at protecting the back 4

3 points..move on... get better as we progress

[space hardware]

Take the win, move on.

Tough watch.

[galpharm2400]

Question is can you play for 20 minutes in each game and get enough positive results.
History says no for us.
Doing the same things over and over, hoping for better outcomes is not bright.

[stanton1969]

Sorry but that was garbage.

[utttrooper]

Thank fuck we got over the line.
Rice MOTM for me, hardly put a foot wrong.

[terriersyndrome]

Thank fuck we have Bellingham. How Foden played the whole game playing like that just shows how clueless Southgate is.

[Terrier Ramone]

Made it far harder than we should have, however the 2 best things, we won the first game of a Euros for a very long time & you don't want to peak too early, teams often win tournaments improving as it goes on.
