Thread: EUROS FINAL. FT: ENGLAND 1 - 2 SPAIN

    Re: EUROS FINAL. FT: ENGLAND 1 - 2 SPAIN

    England are not the team they thought they were

    They didn't bottle it

    It wasn't Southgates fault

    They were beaten by a superior side with better players

    That winning goal was pure class in movement and execution

    When Southgate goes, I hope he takes the BBC pundit team with him!

    The ball control in the swift passing movements by the Spanish, even in tight areas, was light years ahead of the English efforts. Pickford kept the score down along with some poor Spanish finishing from great positions that they’d worked themselves into.

    Exactly, they’re kidding themselves if they think their players are on the same level as the Spanish.

    England never are the team they, the media, pundits and fans think they are.
    Same every competition

    Some right miserable sods on here. Thought that was a decent final and the second half had three really good goals. Glad Spain won it as they deserved to and were the better team but at the end of the day we all know tournament football isn't like that.

    Williams and Jamal were a joy to watch and some of the football Spain played was outstanding but Pickford kept England in it with one of his best performances imo.

    For all those knocking Southgate, that's back-to-back Euros finals. Not a bad CV. If he was the Wales manager we'd be well happy.

    Fair result but bloody hell there's some red-tinted specs. I enjoyed it anyway. That's all that matters!

    I think the criticism is fair given the pool of players he gets to choose from.

    Southgate is a failure. England are a AA football nation. This is one loss too far, every time they come up against a top end national team they get shown up. 2nd half was decent, spain narrowed the play, the wide players came inside more and it worked.

    6 players on three goals each for top scorer. Do they get one sixth of the golden boot each?

    England have a habit of looking sterile, unimaginative, lacking creation and lacking movement. There always seems to be a sort of unjustified arrogance about their capabilities despite their ack of success.

    Or you could say they always bottle it, which is strange considering their individual talents.

    Really lost a huge amount of respect for Bellingham through this tournament. As a player and most definitely as a person. Scored that one great goal, but performance wise he has been utter dogshit for the vast majority. Yet struts about as if he's king of the world. By all accounts he was just sitting away from the rest of the team while Spain collected their medals. Strutting about only really works when you're backing it up !!

    I think his meteoric rise may have gone to his head. He doesn't strike me as being a humble player at all.
