Looking forward to this one, especially as we could be playing one of them. Germany could be on their way home tonight but somehow I doubt it.
Can we play Portugal next?
Possibly but the FA's demands for how England teams should play (Spain but in slow motion to get around the lack of technical ability) has a lot to do with it.Why won't England bomb forward like the Germans? Southgate's defensive tactics?
Totally agree. It's our game!Bloody foreigners. It's time they learned to play the game properly. UTMP
I know an Arsenal fan who works with a Swiss guy. Xhaka moved to the same area as the Swiss guy when he joined arsenal and through other Swiss they got to know each other. He was told by wenger not to shoot unless it was absolutely nailed on as a chance. That was when Wenger was already 5 years out of date and you can imagine the FA big knobs thinking it’s the way forward now.Possibly but the FA's demands for how England teams should play (Spain but in slow motion to get around the lack of technical ability) has a lot to do with it.
We've seen it at Blackpool in low moments because NC has been put through the same coaching courses and is learning the same default methods. Kenny Dougall joking about how he's been told not to shoot etc
4-2 now unless VAR decides otherwise. Enjoying this.
I wonder how many stupendously good goals we would never have witnessed over the decades if everyone applied that philosophy ️I know an Arsenal fan who works with a Swiss guy.

More chance of scoring off a 20-pass tap-in to appease the xG gods and not feel like you might lose control through taking risks.I know an Arsenal fan who works with a Swiss guy.

One man more than us. Ronaldo would be our best player. Fernandez would be our best player. Silva would be our best midfielder. Jota would easily get in England team. Silva scored 28 in 32 games in the Bundesleague.I said Portugal were a one man band.
