Vinny Green Balls Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 God, a few sites are so fucking bad, claiming that France is the first defending champion to reach the semifinal in 60 years. Brazil won the final in 94, lost the final in 98, and won the final again in 2002. WTF? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not talking about the following World Cup. Kane's abilities will probably not be reduced so much. Fullback is way more of an issue. Are you suggesting that England put Kane out to pasture for the next Euros? If he is firing on all cylinders and doesn't suffer any serious injuries, then you won't need to worry as much about another striker coming through, as we are talking about 18 months. No, I’m asking which strikers we have coming through? Surely it’s a genuine concern? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, happy to join you in media slagging. God Almighty Sam Matterface is absolutely rank. What an absolutely awful commentator he is. ITV as fuck.

Kid Icarus Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Some of the criticism for Southgate is probably the weirdest thing I've ever experienced in football like.

You fixated on a striker coming through, to which I replied that it may not be much of a problem for the next Euros if Kane is fine, as he will still probably be an elite striker. It will obviously be an issue if he is injured, but France would be fucked if Mbappe gets injured. I am not talking about beyond the Euros. This is just really odd.

God yeah, can't wait to see the back of going deep into every tournament. He was a nothing club manager, and he's now made a living out of being England manager. He's the international version of Glen Roeder as a manager. Nice guy but can't win the big games or make tough choices. If he was really proactive he would have designated a second penalty taker instead of being surprised that we got two in the same game. I'm never happy to see the same player take two penalties in a game. No criticism of Kane either, his first pen was one of the best in this competition.

Can you move away from your own original point (not mine) and get onto the conversation about what strikers England have coming through? You know, pretend the conversation has moved on?

Shak Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Is that a thing? Not taking two penalties in a game, I mean. Don't think I can recall ever seeing a player score a penalty then not take the next one when their team got a second. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leaving game changers like Maddison on the bench. Playing a tactic of not passing forwards until France scored. Leaving Grealish on the bench until there was 1 minute left. as I keep trying to say, I’m not even calling for Southgate to be sacked. I just disagree with the media who say that he learns from his mistakes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
