Alert Mongoose Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Just look at the performances of De Gea, Buffon and Neuer in this competition and then honestly tell me Joe Hart is "world class". That's the kind of level of delusion English football has about itself. Raheem Sterling, £50 million pounds. A park player who doesn't even understand the very basic tenets of the game, never mind have the ability to do them; just run about fast like a lobotomized ostrich and pick up £200,000 a week. Jack Wilshere - the finest English midfielder of his generation and Croatia probably had better players carrying the kit hampers. Boateng, Hummels, Pique, Ramos, Chielini, Bonucci, Barzagli, and Smalling. Spot the odd one out. Reported for racism... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamuraiJock Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Couple of quotes pinched from Reddit from the Belgian commentator for last night's game: "Roy Hodgson is watching the game like a cow watching a train pass by. He has no idea what is happening" "Roy learned 40 years ago in a course that you do your first substitution during halftime, and then your second one after 60 minutes" - this one was said before the 60th minute appearance of Vardy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyAnchor Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 If someone had told me they would not lose on penalties with the usual pain and anguish I would have been disappointed to hear it. However yesterday beat everything. I still keep just laughing at odd moments. Fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ned Nederlander Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 I honestly cant move on past the gravity of Glenn Hoddles comments lastnight. Such a show of total delight from the penalty, turned to pure petulance, disrespect, total nonsensical drivel, then finally turning on his own. Its like he has shown us the definitive spectrum of English w****r behaviour.... Hoddle will be disabled in his next life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyrshireTon Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Didn't see the game as I was driving back from Fort Willaim (escorting 3 young ladies up and down Ben Nevis), but on the radio the 5live commentary and chat was glorious. From they way they were talking you'd have thought the Iceland players were only there because they'd each saved up enough Cornflakes tokens. Alan Green was absolutely seething.

This would be the greatest thing in the history of anything.

redrocky Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Easy to be wise after the event, and I actually feel sorry for Hodgson because the pressure is huge, but a few tactical thoughts on England's defeat last night... - Harry Kane was clearly off form and Vardy should have started instead. Just because someone is the number 1 player going in, it doesn't mean a squad player can't come in and do a better job. Just think of David Platt and Toto Schillachi at Italia 90 for 2 great examples. - Kane showed that at the very highest level he struggled to cope with the pressure. He may come good next time but it puts serious question marks against him. - Ditto for Joe Hart. Two big mistakes in this tournament. Fraser Forster should be given a chance as the number 1 now. - Inverted wingers. It's all the fashion these days and Strachan is a fan, but against packed defences all it does is narrow the game. If you are going to play inverted wingers then at least play with guys that can use their weaker foot, which it looks like Sterling especially and Sturridge can't do. (Side note - every professional footballer should be able to use both feet, all it takes is practice.) Raheem Sterling just looks like he lacks basic technique, this may just be because his confidence is gone. He won the penalty and started well but quickly fell out it after the Iceland goals. - Andros Townsend - plays great in warm up games, doesn't make squad. He should have started on the left and would have given England a player who could round the outside and put crosses in from the left. Milner and Barkley weren't needed so they could have picked him. - Crosses - professional footballers should be able to put a decent cross in. The crossing at this tournament, never mind just England, has been really poor. What price a David Beckham now? - Kane on corners and free kicks. I have no problem with Kane taking them if he was any good at them, but once it's clear he's struggling, someone else should take responsibility instead. Kane shouldn't have been in the team. - Kyle Walker - what was he doing at the first Iceland goal? #BallWatching. Defenders need to defend. Also people say he's had a great tournament, but I remember very few decent crosses from him. Maybe I've just forgotten. - Dele Alli - I don't see what all the fuss is about, did very little in the tournament that I noticed. I'm Scottish however so I'm delighted Iceland won! You could tell that once Iceland went in front the pressure was getting to England and they had the fear just thinking about the backlash that is now happening.
