Aaaaawwww nooooeeeessss.... some England players are "upset" at being critiqued for not doing their job very well. :oops: :roll:

Fuck me what type of world are we letting this wider woke entitled generation of under achieving fucking whingers build? :censored:

We see it reflected on here. If you dare to criticise the club or team or manager or players when they deserve it, you are "not a real fan" or you are "not loyal" or you have "an agenda". :roll:

Now the England team are whinging because former players have criticised their shit performances.

Fuck them. They are paid a fortune to deliver at the top end of the game. If they can't deliver then they should fuck off out of it or expect to be judged on what they can or can't do.

Entitled cùnts. :censored:



One of those doing the criticising is the judas phone up his arse cashly cole c.unt who has stated that saka should be dropped in the reshuffle - like I said before, I have been critical of saka this season for AFC but make no mistake he has played well for ingerland in both games and has been harshly subbed in both too :evil: The demand for a reshuffle to get players like palmer and foden as key players defies belief given that neither have proven fcuk all at international level yet while saka has been a key player under southgate. The latest rumour is that trent is to be dropped for gallagher - as the old saying goes, if gallagher is the answer then I love to know what the question is :roll: :lol: I'm no trent lover but I have to agree that when he plays for the victims he looks up front and has willing runners all across the front 3, but when he plays for this team the only one willing to run in behind is saka so it is taking away his ability to drop passes in behind. I think that if southgaate has guts he plays wharton in the 6 and moves rice to the 8 and allows him to do what he does well for AFC. I think that if he intends sticking with this formation then he has to accept that he cannot play both bellingham and foden and expect them to shine cos both want to take up the same positions

Good points made. Saka hasn't set the world alight, but he's offered far more than Foden. Foden is a quality footballer, but like so many others in the side is a victim of Southgate's poor management. Interesting point about Bellingham and Foden playing the same game.

I've got to be honest, I had no idea who Wharton was before this tournament!! Didn't even know that he played for Palace. :oops: :oops:
Is he any good?

Time will tell would be my answer to that question, BUT what I will say is that rice isnt a DM and southgate's "system" requires a DM, and imo he is a more natural defensive midfielder than mainoo. The wharton kid looks very comfortable on the ball tbf, and that is a must in international football imo

Just watched the BORING first half of the Ingerland v Slovenia game and Red Rum and is assistant; the Fat Balding Cun.t are sat on the bench and they look absolutely Clueless... I mean FFS... The ingerland team have some of the Prems/Europes Best Players in the team who are struggling to put 3 passes together, they look so dis-jointed you'd think they'd never played together before... Other than 2 close chances & a disallowed off-side it is Slovenia who look most likely to score.

Kane shouldn't be in the team - fat, slow and in-effective.

The Belgium v Ukraine game was incredibly boring too. Belgium had the worst kit. Like a Cheaty top with brown shorts and white socks. Talk about a mis-match.

Now the Georgia v Portugal game was a breath of fresh air. The ladyboy was so petulant but the game itself was very good. Like their match against Turkey. Georgia were described by one of the commentators as like playing against 11 excited puppies. - made me laugh.

I haven’t watched much of the Euros apart from the dire England matches.

Just checked out the odds, thinking that England probably out to about 20/1.

Wrong! England are now clear favourites at 7/2 :lol:

Blimey I’m glad I haven’t watched the other teams!

I Concur whole heartedly


It was great to see the Ref not falling for his 'victim' sulky antics, yes there was one occasion where he had his shirt pulled in the penalty area but other than that he was just outmuscled and marked out of the game. The Lady BoyCunt is so used to being allowed to throw his strops and tantrums and the officials caving in to his 'Demands & Complaints'... Georgia thoroughly deserved the Win, they had the inferior players / team but every single player & sub gave 1,000% and played out of their socks. The only things that could have improved my enjoyment of the game was either seeing the LadyBoyCunt get red carded for div ing and petulance or better still having his ACL Snapped so he could never play again.

They have the easiest run to the final ever seen in international football - france's bottle job on Tuesday has meant that france, spain, germany and portugal are now all on opposite side of the draw to ingerland, and italy are only have decent obstacle they might face before the final

Yep, it's constant luck like this that has kept Red Rum in the job for so long. Well that and his weasel woke words. The two halves of the draw couldn't be so different if you planned it.

Against a half decent side England would go straight out, but apart from Italy and the Netherlands (who are shadows of their former selves), even Southgate's team should be able to stumble past the rest.

Had a feeling from the start they would do well and maybe win it.....not saying theres not better teams about ....and with clueless southgate and liability stones and pickford despite all that think its their year
just to add MR silly woke bollox is not using Rice to best effect, and Bellingham and Foden seem to be lost despite being very good players
still think they will win it or loose in final

Yep idiots like Chris Sutton spout most successful England manager since sir alf.

Well yes but look at the luck of the draw and his resources. Everytime we play a team of comparable statue/ranking we lose. Southgate hasn't to my recollection beaten any team on par or above us. So thus how is that a success? Its an epic failure if anything. Piss easy runs to finals and semis mean nothing if as soon as you come up against a country that has existed pre 1991 you lose!

As for the euros bar the odd game every 'big' team has looked equally as crap.

Wish Saka and Rice would do a Ben White and tell Southgate to fuck off, fly back on the first plane home and get rested ready for the new season.

They've both been infected by Southgate's mediocrity, and just hope it doesn't rub off on them too much!
