Hehe. You have to respect sludge's laser focus here. I suspect we all do sludge, but this lot far less so than previous generations. They are a good side and deserve to be thereQuote:

We know. You've said several times.Quote:

The five subs thing helps but, on occasions, can disrupt the rhythm.Quote:

They've done well so far but when I see a game like Spain v Italy, which was good enough to be a World Cup final, I fail to understand the superlatives that are lavished on this England side.
They are a fit, well-organised team with great strength in depth who are playing in a home tournament. I will admit that Sterling is one of the players of the tournament but collectively there is no wow factor to their football.
Looks like Sludge isn't alone with his laser focusQuote:

I want Italy to win but Southgate and this group of players are generally likeable. Like the way theyve ignored the boo boys.
No comparison to me with the play off final where I really wanted a Brentford win.
The arrogance of these people to even contemplate a national day off if they win on Sunday knows no bounds.Quote:
