Can't wait for us to shithouse our way to beating Germany only to lose to Ukraine in the quarters

I still can't over yesterday. Just amazing. Both underdogs going from 1-0 to 1-3 down, only to make improbable comebacks at 3-3 for ET!? The absurd Simon own goal coming right after another Morata sitter fail, Simon's great save at 3-3 in ET, Morata's excellent goal to make it 5-3. France going from a penalty away to be 0-2 to up 2-1 in a matter of minutes, Benzema's absurd touch for the first goal, Pogba's AMAZING goal for 3-1, Seferovic's bullet header for 2-3, Pogba costing France to set up the third goal, Coman almost scoring a worldie at the end of stoppage time, the near misses of extra time, some class penalties and almost saves, all to culminate in Mbappe being the one to have the penalty saved? And I'm still probably missing out something! Seriously, what an amazing day of football.

You just know that Germany/England is going to suck now!

Boring 0-0 and we'll lose 1-0 or 2-0 in ET

[Lineker]

Sounds like England might be going with three at the back and Saka starting. 

 

[DFF]

That graphic clearly shows a 3-4-2-1 formation >_>

[Baddar]

Come on then England, good performance, and I can start thinking how to spend the sweeps money.

[gunnar hendershow]

No Calvert-Lewin in the squad today because Gareth loves opening himself up to days worth of media criticism.

[FLiam]

This team on paper looks lacking offensively. No real link between the defense and attack. Baffling selection if you ask me.

[Dang117]

Grealish not starting makes no sense to me a team who can be reckless defensively like Germany and you don't have someone who will frustrate them and draw out fouls

[Adam]

I just can't understand the team. Why would you play with absolutely no creative midfielder? Kane better come alive today or else England are in big trouble.

At least one of Foden, Grealish and Mount had to start. The fact Calvert-Lewin isn't even on the bench yet both Mings and Coady are is utterly ridiculous.

I hope Southgate proves me wrong but I fear for the game after seeing that line-up. It is absurdly negative.

[Bobfoc]

If England lose this match, prepare to read all the usual post-defeat analysis:

. The team was focused too heavily on being woke to play well

. The Premier League schedule is too gruelling for England to do well at major tournaments

. The manager should drop all the overpaid, passionless prima donnas and pick lower league players instead

. The referees were biased against England because of their Brexit jealousy

What you on about. It's clearly get the ball back to Pickford to try and smack it as far up the field as he can, mindless sidewards passing and getting hopes up when we have a corner.

Ok...we get it....

I'm interested to know what Sancho has done to annoy Southgate

One decent Carabao Cup performance for us against Walsall next season and he'll start games.

[Szumi]

My bet on Germany to win in 90' at +200 feels a bit more confident right now

[Baddar]

Booing during anthems fucks me off.

[Twist]

Every time I get excited for an England game and maybe, possibly, feel a tiny bit patriotic we get to the anthems and honestly fuck England fans.
