Wrong thread pal - you want Group G

Fair point

At least the world's cuntiest player isn't on to steal another World Cup goal

Excellent finish not sure he even touched it

"Won't glorify by showing it". Maybe you fucking should on this occasion?

Clarence Acuna needs to pull his finger out

Class that

Ah that's absolutely gutting for the Japanese.

What a finish

This aged well

Messi having a mare so far. Be such a shame if this is how his World Cup ends, just whimpering out

The Wilson change of heart was because Maguire went down injured, nothing to do with them scoring. Wilson was about to come on, Maguire went down, he brought on Dier instead. 5 minutes later Wilson came on anyway.

It’s just such a lazy, easy narrative to take. Say he’s shit and we do go out early and you get to say “told you!”. Or we do better and it’s either “easy draw” or everyone else is so swept up in celebrating that you don’t get called out on your bad take. It’s win-win to slag Southgate off, regardless of what actually plays out over the month

My point wasn’t about the time he’s been there, it’s more about the overreaction to a single game. There are loads of teams who have had a shit game in the group stage and gone on to win the whole thing - we did the same in the euros and reached the final. A tournament is a separate beast. Teams can go into a tournament in shit form and win it. At the end of the day we’ve drawn a game we should have won 11 v 11, but are going to go through to the knockouts regardless. Judgement should come at the end of the tournament. If we go out in the next round or quarters with a drab performance like that then fair enough, Southgate will probably have taken us as far as he can and it’s time for a change. But until that’s actually happened, let’s all just chill a little and wait and see? It’s one game, and it doesn’t necessarily define our tournament any more than the Iran game does.

Could not agree more. Southgate isn’t perfect but some of the criticism is genuinely insane. I wonder what the crossover is with those who were losing their shit at Howe after his first couple of months

Well that was pretty dull. Looked a bit better after the subs which is encouraging. Basically through which is the main thing, hopefully can grow into the tournament from here like we did at the Euros

It’s mad like

Really excited for this. Watched the first game at work so couldn’t fully get into it despite the destruction we dealt

He's got a forum to admin too tbf to him.

Thought we’d been nuked then with the interruption

God please no

Just noticed that an impenetrable wall of Kim

Hope sexy Fab gets off the bench

Stadium sounds loud af

That is class
