That handball. :D
I've had to take someone to A&E so currently sat for ages in a sterile, fun-free environment surrounded by miserable people, IT'S A BIT LIKE WATCHING ENGLAND.
But seriously, put some entertaining posts in the thread at least pls.
England's aversion to playing through balls is quite something.
The Swiss don't look like they believe they can beat us - given how rancid we've been in this tournament so far it's staggering the level of respect we still get.
Zidane getting frustrated at his shit team mates.
Watkins for Kane.
They don't have the football on? Wild.Quote:

Comment was after that break from Mainoo where it felt like he had options for the through ball for once and he just cut it back to Trippier for a shitty cross instead.Quote:

Well, quite.
Kyle Walker can fuck off. Every pass is backwards. Cunt.
This is fucking horrendous. Much worse than France-Portugal, which at the time seemed impossible.
Even the ref's sick of this. :D
Fuck off, Rio. Fuck right off.
Yeah, they are clearly OVERAWED by the occasion, so hopefully we can avoid fucking up and giving them a goal.Quote:

Are the panel watching a different game?
Former defenders should be banned from both commentary and managing.
Well, that was basically what Rio Ferdinand thought he was watching previously when he said we can win the tournament playing like this.
I disagree, but I guess it's progress at least, even if it is fucking horrible to watch.
This is what we've been waiting for!
:D
No shots on target for them.
Yeah, ok, we've not had any either, but that's not the point.
It's garbage, but it is at least functional garbage, compared to whatever the fuck we were doing in the first four games.Quote:

Set your own bar so low you can't help but improve. Don't we all do that in employment?Quote:

Difference there was that was more of a by design shitfest. This is just two poor sides being very passive.Quote:

You would think we were coasting listening to these whammers.
Both of these teams would agree to go to PKs right now.
This is just gaslighting at this stage.
Southgate wouldn't. The entire gameplan, and it's been this way for years now, is to play like this and hope the talent in the team produces a moment to nick the winner.Quote:

Saka is 100% getting brought down in the area. Hopefully it's late enough that Toney is on the pitch.
I don't know what some of you were watching in previous tournaments when you were giving me shit for saying we should get rid of Southgate back then. This is what we do under him and it's been that way for ages.
Southgate won’t make his first sub until the 87th minute with us playing this well.
Talking about the great performance as 'shots on target 0-0' appears on the screen :D
There's clearly been a very clear instruction from the FA/Southgate about pundits not being negative.
Glad it’s not just me confused whether I was watching the same game as the pundits. Saka and mainoo aside England don’t seem to have much threat.
Swiss have played some really nice balls through the lines, and embolo been really close to spinning and being through. Pretty cagey, but I don’t think England are dominating this like the pundits seem to think they are.
This is exactly what my thoughts were.Quote:

I have to say Akanji's positioning has been consistently top notch in this tournament.
Swiss have been a disgrace here. No idea why they were so positive against Italy but negative here
