England Euro 2016

[Time's Ran Out]

England play Russia in 45 mins.
Prepared to be shot down but I reckon 3-0 to England.
Football fans only, keep it on the pitch or start your own thread.

 

[mma]

I'll take a 1-0 to England. Strange selection though?

 

[Time's Ran Out]

1-1 very disappointed !
Don't know why there was no substitutions till 80 mins.
Absolute rubbish.
Will have to start watching the rugby.

 

[mma]

Woy is a willy puller!

 

[Andy Allen]

The rugby was fantastic ...beat the convicts....and it was a cracking game.!!

I wait. Italy vs England

I wait. Italy vs England

It'll be in the final!

 

[Time's Ran Out]

Out of the group and into knockout stages of 16 teams.
Monday its England v Iceland.
Don't think there's been any trouble since the Russians went home, have to keep everything crossed - ENGLAND to win the competition.
Out of Europe with the cup - sounds good.

called this last week when i got back from France, England players dont have the desire to play for the shirt.

Take another game i went to watch, Albania v Romania......both teams gave their all, played with passion and desire and yes maybe not be as gifted as these premier league superstars but in my eyes that didnt matter.

im gutted tbh. a manager who couldnt motivate, and players that didnt care.

 

[Spud]

Thinking about this today
The england team should be chosen from a massive english tournament
All professional players who actually want to play for the country from what ever club and what ever their level should have their names put in a 11 hats which signify what position they play in at their home club, sides of 11 should then be drawn at random then a tournament played to establish the 2 best teams
Who ever wins the tournament will be the england side with the runners up forming the rest of the squad y theory is league players arent always the best tournament players

 

[Andy Allen]

Think Eddie Jones should be the next coach....

 

[Time's Ran Out]

The inquest has started and ended!
It was a one off bad game Roy said and he wished everyone well for the future.
Who next ?
I reckon Hoddle again for 2 years till next World Cup - if it's in Russia!

 

[Italy]

sorry.
you have to make to play. those who hunger.
not those who already satiated.
uk has a team. all full of money. they are not hungry.
Italy only 2/3 famous players.
all the others. I almost never heard of them.
and these run. because they are hungry. They want the glory.
famous players. already seen the glory.
Italy can lose games. but if they play as I've seen.
I proud of them.

Antonio - couldn't agree more with you.

bad old

 

[Joseph Kover]

bunch of overpaid footballer,no ball control,no precision,no tactics,no finisher
send them to the countryside to work instead. never understood why the hell they get paid this much.nonsense

 

[Lee@emctiles]

whats shocked me more is Englands record in knockout tournaments

This is ridicules.

England have only won 6 games in knockout football since 1966:
Paraguay 1986
Belgium 1990
Cameroon 1990
Spain 1996
Denmark 2002
Ecuador 2006

Your team has got a manager now that does motivate the players and a lot more! Look after him. Top, top manager!!

which begs the question, why do they both entering?

 

[mma]

Millionaires by their early twenties, no wonder that they are not bothered. Too much money and not enough hunger or desire. Also lacking in technical ability. A lot of the blame should lay at the Blazers at the FA.

 

[Time's Ran Out]

Sometimes you think the managers are too loyal to these players.
This time there were too many players not ready (fit or at the top of their game) or not regulars in their premier league teams.
Tactics were questionable ( Kane taking corners, resting 6 players for game 3).
Lots of questions.

 

[Spud]

The players are picked on how popular the FA think the england shirt sales will be ,it is a business after all its why they pick yes men for the managers job

 

[Lee@emctiles]

i know its probably been said before, but they should have appointed Cloughie all those years back, agree we seem to appoint the yes men all the time, southgate next........good lord.....

rather see someone like Eddie Howe myself.
