Heâd a lovely assist for xavi simons in fairness

Arsenal would have been better wiping their holes with the 100m

I see a lot of bollox talk on twitter, from the occupied 6 mainly, about how much the Irish have in common with the Spanish. We have fuckall in common with them.

Heâd a wanker interview over the last few days talking about having to give mainoo a bollocking for a mistake he made! After him giving away a goal!? Fucking brain dead.
Heâs no business being on the same field as dani alves
I thought he was terrible tonight and I wouldnât watch much football. He doesnât seem to have a good first touch and some of his passing is very poor, even short ones. He also seems to have an odd stride where he seems to drag his leg behind him if that makes sense.
They didnât even flash a smile apparently

It wouldâve been a travesty if Spain didnât win that tournament. Beating Germany, France and England is the toughest route a team has taken to tournament success in the modern era. Iâd doubt any team had as taxing a run even in the 8 team Euro days. Not only that but they managed to oust the 3 pre-tournament favourites in the spaces of 9 days which belied the short recovery time. Nico is a cut above the older brother Inaki. Bilbao will have their work cut out to keep the big dogs from prising him away this summer.
Staggering to think that England had a lower xG than Croatia at the tournament. I know they missed a few chances in the 3-0 defeat to Spain but their match against Italy was a dour enough affair. Southgate can easily make claim to being their most successful manager since Alf Ramsey but heâs definitely holding them back with his pragmatic approach. Youâd be happy enough for him to stay on for the foreseeable. I thought England were going to snare a fortuitous penalty when Ivan Toney appeared to take a tumble in the box at that 89th minute corner.

Ruiz really stepped up in Rodrigoâs absence. Had a great tournament

It wasnât nearly as bad as the 2020 final.
They should be building the team around foden not Bellingham.
Youâd nearly feel sorry for Kane. At this stage of his career youâd think heâd have won a few trophies by accident even. A few auld league cups or Europa leagues even
Foden is a complete coward of a player. Palmer is far better

The last English manager to win the league was Howard Wilkinson.
The last English manager to win a trophy was Harry Redknapp.
Give it 'Arry.
Spain and Spanish club teams are developing a John Kiely-esque record in major finals
He is some player. Bestrode the field like a colossus in that 2nd half in Rodris absence.
Itâs the entitlement of the English team that gets me. They go one down, and Kane and Pickford âcalm down, calm down, hurry, hurry hurryâ as if it is Man City going 1 down against Torquay United in the FA Cup and theyâre all scrambling to right the embarrassing error of going one down against the minnows. The same against Slovakia I think it was.

Some journalist fairly stuck to the boot into Southgate on football weekly. Said heâs dripping in Middlesbrough and Crystal Palace and a loser.
Harsh enough imo.
Playing Kane injured was criminal tbf.
They do have a good squad but they are getting away with the quality of it. Theyâve a whole host of wide forwards but lacking into other positions. Iâm not sure itâs as good as they make out.,
