I don't think Slovakia have the players or energy to really put up a fight anymore. Even in characteristically shit Southgate-mode, England have to win this in extra time.Quote:

Fuck right off.
Or not.
Yeah, that's what I'm getting at. We should absolutely fuck them now.Quote:

Fuck that, turned it off.
If I have to watch us sit back/low block for 30 minutes now I'm going to go postal.
Ok. Next game just play all the attackers and forget having a system. Job done.

Every single one of you, punch yourselves in the fucking face. The trophy is ours, how many times do I need to say it?
Not been a great couple of weeks for you football-wise, has it :lol:Quote:

Name on the trophy I reckon.
This is probably the first time a team has ever managed to score too early in extra time. It's not good tournament football.
They're dropping deeper...
We've sat back immediately, playing the hits.
We're going to get a week of that before putting in another suicide inducing performance against Switzerland, aren't we?Quote:

I support the players if that helps DS. No real problem with any of them as it's not their fault.
How?
I mean, just look at this. He's unravelling the cosmic structure of football with this shit. Slovakia having conceded an overhead kick with basically the last kick of normal time and then conceded again right at the start of extra time should be absolutely broken, but there they are, taking the game to us.
Unchanged starting lineup vs Switzerland
Slovakian bicycle kick goal in the 121st minute, please.
What's a Konsa?
Taking off two penalty takers is bold.
No Guehi against Switzerland, Trent at centre back?
Utility defender, ie centre back about to be played out of position at leftback.
Proper Southgate subs there.
5-4-1, let's go!
Cheers. I should have guessed.Quote:

Their goalkeeper will get the equaliser or something equally comical.
Have we had two shot on target in 117 mins?
:D
Efficient.
We've absolutely robbed them here. About 2 minutes of good football in the 120. The post match cliché bingo is going to be on another level. These boys always believe, never give up, stand up.in the big moments.
In a bukkake of irony, the one time we should be defensive as fuck and hold the ball to the final whistle we don't.
Pickford is this generations Michael Owen. Such a deeply cringe inducing man. :D
You genuinely can't hate Sam Matterface enough.
Clinical, exciting, never in doubt. We show once again what winners we are. Its coming home gentlemen.
Christ, Pickford there. You've beaten Slovakia 2-1 after extra time. Have some humility you stupid cunt.
Was just thinking somebody please kill him. G'wan Clive.Quote:

16 absolute heroes out there. How they won that game having to deal with what Sir Gareth was doing, well, words can't do it justice. It'd be like being a bus driver and having a clause in your contract that weds a goblin to the cab with you at all times that won't stop vomiting, shitting and pissing everywhere.
