Couldn't agree more about Henderson, he's a brilliant footballer. Sad for him that at the end of his career he'll have lots of medals but not the ones he would dream of.
Agree hugely. How did she get the gig. She was a ****e England's Women centre forward but it's important what she makes of Harry Kane. **** off you insignificant nobody.
But as has often been the question re HCAFC, just who do you replace him with... Howe (FA couldn't match the money I suspect) Lampard (errrr no) Potter (not ready) Brendan Rodgers, Sean Dyche (FA would likely love him)
I know this is going to sound like ****e, but If the F.A. had given the job to Brian Clough, we would've had a different mentality and a different history. The French would be in awe of our 'trophy haul' if someone from our F.A. had the balls to not be on the take like UEFA.
Unfortunately that fine margin tonight is probably the difference between winning the World Cup and going out in the Quarters..France are surely the best team left in the tournament now and will more than likely lift the cup? We were that close...
As my Dad just said, perhaps better to get knocked out now by the best team left, rather than lose in the final to someone we should beat..
The defence around the time of the second goal was ****, let a player free really close in with defenders just stood around. First time got away with it with Pickford's save but not the second time. Didn't take great play to score there.
Didn’t she say Richarlison’s 19 in 40 record was ‘a goal every game’ or something? Utter ****e she talks.
France were better than us at the business end of the pitch. They scored two from open play. We couldn’t.
Can't argue with England's performance, brilliant performance...It's the hope that kills you though...551 days until Euro 24 ⚽️
Matched them yet beaten by a bit of bottle and experience. I'd now back France for the title. After Brazil went out you'd probably back the winner from tonight as favourite. But we'll have our side still together with that bit more arrogance and experience by the next world Cup. France will be a 1 man team by then without Griezman or Giroud.
I'm coming late to the party, but I thought we were the better team. France found a way to win so I'll doff my cap. We came from behind bossed the second half. The game turned on just a few moments, Sako was fouled they broke and scored. A superb cross from Griesman and Giroud's header is, I believe, deflected off Harry's shoulder upper arm. Then Kane over thinks the penalty. The last chance in extra time ( there's always one last chance) and Rashford's free kick scrapes over the bar. Oh and don't expect a card from the ref this Christmas he gave us nothing. Some wit changed his wiki page to "referee in Brazil and France fan" At least I didn't cry like I did in1970 Bring on the euros
ITV should be banned from showing games they have the worst commentators, the worst pitch side pundits, ****ing adverts every bastard 10 mins.
The last 3 tournaments with Southgate we could/should have won, but tonight again, we have France under the cosh, and we have Grealish, Rashford, Maddison sat on the bench, and we wait until we go behind to make subs, again, he’s a ****ing **** manager but an FA yes man, we should have brought Rashford on early doors, the Frogs would have **** bricks, but no, we try defend, **** right off.
Ha ha, I was thinking the same thing earlier tonight, although I don’t think I cried I just fell out with my mother (German) for taking the mickey after they won. TBH, I don’t think I’ve ever really forgiven her for that. The fact that my Grandad was half French doesn’t make me feel any better either.
