  1. You've literally not shut up and gone a bit weird because someone flippantly called Croatia a 'fading team'. It weren't that big of a deal. Your country just won at the WC, enjoy yourself
  2. Was coming. If Croatia couldn't find that goal, we could have had an interesting final 5 mins or so but not to be
  3. Fair play to Canada. They aren't that good and if they going home with nil points then at least they've given it a go. I look forward to seeing them again at next WC
  4. Mad respect for any Costa Rican who got up at 4am to watch this
  5. If you didn't follow them, you'd assume Sampaoli was still in charge and they hadn't progressed from 2018 at all
  6. Zero goals at Euros though. Lets see if he can maintain that
  7. Well there we go. Not many top club jobs out there for him at moment
  8. Thought Dest played well. Good threat going forward. Was suprised and pleased he came off
  9. Incase any of our foreign posters are wondering who Gareth Ainsworth is. Here he is
  10. He's more worried about Ecuador and then France, wants Holland and then Saudi Arabia. All part of the plan
  11. I think, if Southgate left after this WC, they would approach Pochetino. Whether he'd take it or not, not sure. The job is way more attractive then it was 5 years ago. Before the job was a hiding to nothing but now a good manager will look at it and think 'hey, I could probably win something with them'
  12. I agree. Monday morning we were an awful team. Tuesday it was coming home. Now we awful again. It's all kinda par for England under Southgate
  13. Our press was awful. Never felt like their defence were ever stressed or came close to a mistake. They far too easily played balls into midfield with no stress. I hope that wasn't Tim Ream who strolled about 15 yards straight forward and set up an attack in first half
  14. Not sure. I'm pretty drunk but I felt from like 55 minute to whenever Henderson came on we were gettting more and more penned back by the US and getting nowhere near their box. While that didn't change hugely after the sub, it definitely felt like we were playing a step higher. We obviously couldn't string a pass when near sniffing distance of their box mind But basically prior to his sub, I could see us conceeding. Afterward, never really thought we would.
