Whoohoo! Great work Germany, although they should've put them away earlier. Linesman didn't help obviously.
England still indoctrinating hoofball into their youth rank. They'll never have success again, nor do they deserve any.
Don't worry they'll be playing hoofball when they graduate to U21.ummm U20 WC winners?
What an embarrassing pile of wank that was. As ever, no tactical or coached approach whatsoever beyond a five minute jiz at the start of the first and second half.
The first half was shockingly bad, England just ambled around and watched Germany play football. The idiotic 442 once again in evidence (which bizarrely seemed to become a 424 without the ball, go figure) no coherence to anything England did with (the rare occasions they had it) or without the ball. Germany pinged the ball between the lines and down the flanks and it was just wastefulness that they didn't come in at half time a couple of goals to the good.
The second half, that monumental t**t Boothroyd did make a slight adjustment but from a coached or footballing perspective nothing really improved. England managed by some miracle to find themselves a goal up but unlike when Germany went a goal up and kept the football, England just reverted to plodding around like androids whose hard drives had all been infected by the same virus - the Trojan Boothroyd Zero Wipe virus, and once again it was only wastefulness and a linesman that kept England in this game, and it was immensely flattering that they eventually went out on penalties.
It's so fucking depressing. This wasn't an outstanding German side, but the difference in coached and tactical approach was massive, and that's not because Germany were tactically innovative and advanced, or coached to play tiki taka to within an inch of their lives, it's just because where Germany had a basic philosophy of you know...."playing cohesive football" with and without the ball, England were just a footballing vacuum.
I pray to god winning two games out of 4 doesn't keep this fucking muppet in a job.
Southgate didn't get sacked after the debacle two years ago (and was subsequently promoted), why do you think the FA will see sense now?I pray to god winning two games out of 4 doesn't keep this fucking muppet in a job.
He already pretty much is, isnt he?Saul is destined for the very top
