I agree with all of this , except I went from not being arsed to actively disliking England purely because of the way the media and fans go on. So arrogant considering how little they have achieved . Even the stick they give Southgate when he's the second most successful England manager ever just shows the mentality they have . I also will never understand how anyone can give Pickford dogs abuse when he comes here for a match but then worship and celebrate him when he's saving penalties for England.

England have had better squads than this and not made consecutive euro finals mind , it's not as easy as the Southgate haters like to make out . I couldn't care less about England really but the abuse Southgate has had to endure from the majority is madness when you look at what he has achieved. England don't deserve to win on Sunday based on that alone .

Name is on the trophy , Spain are vastly the superior outfit but you look at England and the way they have got to the final, beating three lesser teams with last minute goals and penalty shootouts despite playing poorly and you can't help but think they are going to win it .

Deschamps gets way more stick than he deserves mind, he's won a World Cup and was only a penalty shootout away from winning another . Teams literally just sit back every single time they play France which is why they have looked so poor this tournament.

Anyone else think they will definitely make an example out of us points deduction wise ? Could easily see us being docked more than even Everton got .

Yeah it's an absolute shambles if we have done that , no way can we be that desperate surely that we would even need to contemplate it and if we are then someone has fucked up big time at the club. We can criticise the PRS rules all we want but this one would be on the club.

In all honesty unless I needed the money for my own club to avoid a FFP sanction ,If I owned a premier league club I would be doing absolutely no deals with any club knowing that they could be hit with a points deduction if I didn't buy a player from them .

I would rather sell Longstaff as well but understandably nobody seems to want him .

Think this is a good deal , not convinced by what I have seen from Anderson so far that he is going to be good enough for a club that want to be challenging for the top 4. Sorts our FFP issues out without having to lose someone who I would class as a key player .

May as well just totally give up on football if we have to go down this route of selling the likes of Isak or Gordon just to avoid a points deduction.

It's absolute nonsense blaming the rules if we sold Isak mind, we aren't £100 odd million in the red for ffp and it's worth losing a few points just to keep him anyway .

Be an absolute shambles from the owners if we sold him.

Spain have easily been the best team so far, I think France will improve as well and beat Belgium comfortably. One of them two I fancy to make the final . Everyone is raving about Austria but France beat them and looked comfortable the whole game .

I agree we shouldn't be selling any of our players to them clubs, at the same time though we are never going to be pay the wages they can and at the end of the day that's what matters to the majority of players . Man United and Chelsea for example don't even need champions league football to attract players due to the wages they can pay . Thats why when people say we have spent 400 million or whatever we should be top 6 it's not that simple , our wage bill will be far far less than any of them clubs so Eddie is performing miracles getting us to compete with them really .

Spurs😂😂😂, may as well give up on football if they can take our best players.

We shouldn't be selling under any circumstances or for any money ,besides the fact he's literally irreplaceable it would really make you question our long term ambitions and send out the totally wrong message about our owners intentions .

I didn't mean to quote your original post in my reply .

We shouldn't be accepting any bid, they could offer 200 million and it should still be turned down .

Sadly it's how football works now . Chelsea aren't wasting time in talks with us if they havnt been given any encouragement to do so.

The worrying thing about that enquiry is that they would never have made one unless they had been given some form of encouragement from Isak or his more likely his agent .

England look a lock to get to the final now mind looking at the draw . Always seem to end up in the best side of the draw these days . France, Portagul , Germany and Spain all on the other side .

I like Bowen a lot but I just don't see him leaving London for us unless we offer crazy wages .

I'm glad he's not playing , couldn't care less what he does for England and would rather he had the summer off and be fresh for us next season.

It's a strange one as he's no better than Wilson , if he's cheap though I suppose he's not a bad backup option for when Isak is injured.

Same, I thought he was about 35 when he played for us about ten year ago.
