They didn't play badly v spain
Italy have a good press to apply pressure Spains passing led by biscuits was simply too good for italians to succeed with press. England have Hendo who's a good passer, but he's unlikely to start. I expect Italian press to put pressure on us. Pickford kicks it a long way. Route 1 might be best way to beat press. |

For me its big green now for Italy so I'll leave it there
But even that will only mean a small profit anyway England win its been one torturous tournament for me personally and then its comedy season to put up with after it  |

you're probably twice my age, it would be hilarious for England to win only to witness the rest of the home nations in meltdown

You think too much of yourselves. That's always been the English problem.. We couldn't give a fcuk if you win or lose Barbara, we're just loving the hysteria and marveling at the "British" Broadcasting Corporation turning everything into a victory for diversity. And you're all brainwashed like LEEK matchers. Classic stuff.
 It;s you people who are obsessed with us not the other way about. You can't stop talking about us. |

And you're just about to prove me right by replying!

You can't remember it that well
it was 4-1 The dutch goal knocked out scotland on goal difference,... |
|
By:
dozens of Anti England threads in the build up to the game but apparently the it's the English that talk about the Scots
|

By:
You can't remember it that well
it was 4-1 brain dead by name... |

Southgate playing for pens

You can't remember it that well
it was 4-1 The dutch goal knocked out scotland on goal difference,... I get quite misty eyed just thinking about it - If Carlsberg did European Championships |

By:
I'll be more confident of Italy winning if Berretini stuns Djock
 |
|
By:
England let that in on purpose out of spite in my opinion
And England fans always say they don't care about Scotland  |
|
By:
I used to support Scotland as a kid SS, then realising how much they enjoyed seeing us lose it was a bit of a no brainer to start enjoying their defeats...though these days I just feel sorry for them
 |

According to Sky, Southgate has dropped Saka and is playing another fullback, Trippier.
Just for once I thought he might have been a bit braver. |
|
By:
Playing wingbacks will free up sterling
to come inside to support kane. |
|
By:
Why are we getting this info, team news been leaking all tournament, a bit sad if he's pandering to the journos to keep them on side.
|
|
By:
Could be a double bluff
I doubt it's from Southgate. |
|
By:
Like the idea of having Stirling running more at Chielini and Bonnuchi but in reality he won't get that many opps to do that unless we take the lead as they get some good cover from their midfield
|
|
By:
If Italy press, then the punt
from pickford might see sterling running at them. |
|
By:
All out defence again from southgate.8 defensive players on the pitch.
|
|
By:
Got the tennis on, interesting
to see how well the Italian is being supported by the crowd. Not an epic, yet, but fairly even. |
|
By:
that's true yhtl - been quite pleased to see us being prepared to vary it more in this tournament in terms of hitting the long pass when teams have committed to the press
|

forget world in motion,3 lions ,for a little quizzie on the greatest england song ,sang by players in 1970 BACK HOME , WHAT WAS THE b SIDE CALLED
|
|
By:
Pickford has a huge kick.
|
|
By:
Sweet as sugar, twice as nice,(song title here)
A classic 1tp |
|
By:
would that be CI / ST,your making me doubt myself
|
|
By:
Yep.
I've never seen a video of squad singing it, but Jeff astle sung it on baddiel/skinner, and that's on YouTube. |
|
By:
dont think you needed to be a songsmith about 6 words repeated over and over again
,some people bought jagger,some the fab four,BACK HOME was the 1st single i bought remember been in the booth listening to it before i bought it,in the co op linthorpe rd boro |
|
By:
Sounds an awful England line up. There's hardly any pace to hit them on the counter, Sterling the only one with any pace. Fancy Italy strongly now.
|
|
By:
Southgate's played defensive minded all tournament, if he loses tonight really he should be stepping aside
|
|
By:
WTF! Is sir Gareth doing ? apart from reversing the bus into position....
|
|
By:
2-1 is a hell of a price. Get stuck in.
|
|
By:
I don't think Southgate is planning
an open entertaining game. |
|
By:
you,ve got to feel for jack and his mam dives about ,throwing himself to floor 30 /40 yds from goal muckying his shirt,and even if he wins one in this english side he,s 8th choice to take the free kick
|
|
By:
Djok leads 2-1
The crowd breaks out into its coming home. Meanwhile Scottish open golf suspended as floods of tears waterlog course. |
