It should be perfectly acceptable to say that England have been good and lucky. Winning tournaments takes a combination of ability and luck. It’s not really controversial to say they’ve had a kind draw and have been lucky to play so many games at home. It’s not really controversial to say England have been better than the other teams they’ve played so far and look like a good side. *reference above obviously excludes Kyle Walker, a total sh!t by all accounts. The booing of the German anthem, stay classy as always folks.Ex-pros adding to the narrative and failing to offer real analysis as their careers re best served by this BS Boris-esque patriotism.Videos of fans singing “it’s coming ome” (THE H IS NOT SILENT FFS) are everywhere, and I mean everywhere, it’s sickening.Suddenly both social and mainstream media are announcing them as winners of Euro2020, World Cups 2022, 2026, etc.They’ve done it with a dour boring style of football that ignores the genius of their attacking players.They’ve had the easiest route to the semi-finals including 80% home advantage.

I could go on – the whole squad, maybe for the first time is full of genuine quality and class*, generally free from the likes of “roasting” headlines so prevalent in the early noughties.Īnd yet, as an Irishman who supports Aston Villa, has lots of family connections in Liverpool, isn’t too upset that Grealish and Rice jumped ship (who could blame them, seriously?), and has experience of meeting many great people in English football, I pray with all my heart that the hurt goes on. Raheem Sterling – a leader in the highlighting of the media’s portrayal of footballers dependant on race. Marcus Rashford, a young man with more honour than the combined governments of well, the world probably. A man of total dignity and class who has had that penalty miss to carry for over a quarter of a century. The people lording Southgate for his tactical acumen and decision making need to ask themselves this question, would you want him managing your club? Would you bollocks!

He could probably run the FA in a few years, but he’s not a good football manager. To me, Southgate is a good figurehead, a statesman in the game. It’s unbelievable luck that the only challenge in a whole tournament could be the final, should they beat Denmark. The only time Gareth has had to actually step up to manage the team was against Croatia in the World Cup and he failed miserably. Qualification for tournaments is a bye these days, big teams just can’t fail (Holland excepted).ĩ9/100 he puts his good group of players out and they steamroll the opposition.

I don’t want to piss on everyone’s chips but Gareth has had the easiest run of any England manager since the start of the last World Cup. Would you want Southgate managing your club? Get your views in to ahead of England’s Euro 2020 semi-final against Denmark…
