Re: Season 22-23
It's a simple game.
The key to it, is kicking it in their net. The cunning bit is stopping them kicking it in your net. That way you win game. (Switzerland dont seem to understand the concept).
I should have been a football manager, piece of p*ss.

Re: Season 22-23
Yep.
Aslo congratulate Morocco, who have a pretty impressive defensive record.

Re: Season 22-23
Croatia could well do the same thing to Argentina. Besides Messi they aren't that good, probably as a team not as threatening as Brazil are, but Croatia seem to be difficult to break down and threatening if you do. Plenty of good pen takers and a keeper who's shown he's capable of keeping most things out including more than average number of pens. Could quite easily be finalists again or even go one better considering the other final is either likely to be Portugal, France or England.
Morocco going any further would be absolutely amazing though.

Another big team with its superstars bites the dust.

At least he won't get the racist stuff Rashford got last time.
Well played the French, but crap referee. He'll be going home aswell.

Told you he is a bellend.
Repeatedly carried by the rest of the team so he can take penalties.
Shame for the rest of the team really.
Hopefully now southgate will go and we can can get a FOOTBALL manager in not a woke mouthpiece.

He's the only manager to take England to a tournament final since Alf Ramsey. Seems woke works.
We aren't the best team in the World, not his fault. Blame the Premiership and how we prioritise that over everything else.

Re: Season 22-23
I think we were unlucky in that game. The ref made a few shocking decisions, we missed that penalty and we also made a few mistakes. We were, IMO, the better team against the World Champions though and it could so easily have gone a different way. We kept Mbappe quiet and set out well against them.
This is the best England team we've seen in a while. Euro 2024 should be a good option for us.

I call it Marocco. Why Morocco?
Half of the channels called it Marocco....

Indeed the ref was appalling as if only we could have defended better and performed better in the first half then we could have made it through.
Plus the penalty miss as well, yes that old chestnut haunts us again!
A golden chance gone again will be English footballs epitaph.
