Quoted from forza ivano
let's be honest, tonight was a proper 'British game' as opposed to last night which was a technically brilliant classic . england deserved their win, but Italy are hardly going to be quaking in their boots


As opposed to feigning injury and remonstrating with the ref at every opportunity. Some of our players did a bit of it last night but nothing like the Italians and the Spanish.  The Spanish are by far the worst.  I can't watch Spanish football for this reason.

Why did you want it in the first place?


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Yeah and Jack Grealish has just got really heavy hair. Every country has divers.

Remember that poor Ukraine beat Spain and Portugal in recent times and drew with France in Paris.

Sterling:  still going for goal after 120 mins.  

We ran Denmark ragged as the game went on after 45 mins.  Early subs needed, then another in ET.  They finished with 10 men as another player went off injured.

Southgate has got everything right. His subs last night were made with a cool head.

Sterling was not a first team regular last season.  Southgate knew his quality.

The only sub I did query was taking off Jack Grealish for the last half of extra time and bringing on the defensive Trippier. Rather than going for the 3rd goal to kill the game we went a lot more defensive and Denmark put us under a bit of pressure in that last 15.

However, it all worked out well so who I am to query his decision.

As a big critic of Southgate I have to give him credit for finding ways to win in KO games. To be honest I don’t care if England play well or badly as long as they score more than the other lot. That was our attitude in 66 and it’s still mine today.

He has been blessed with a talented squad, not just one or two individuals and his biggest achievement for me is making them forget their clubs and play for Club England.

But he has been given the easiest ride I’ve ever known by the media even including Ramsey who had to take heavy flack for the “wingless wonders” selection and picking Hurst over Greaves and his so called dismissive attitude to the media when he protected his players. Southgate has never had real dirt digging or scam setting or “turnip” heading if his side played badly.


“If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.”
