"I've never slagged off the results just style of play at times." like I said, hypocrisy off the charts With that I'm done, day to get on with Very different Burnley to England, I don't think England play bad football at all and knockout football is about winning and grinding through the rounds, on...

Out of interest which has been your favourite result/best performance under Southgate?

Last night, breaking records along the way, calm assured and professional.

KRBFC

I say Southgate is too negative in certain games, Scotland as an example, and you say I'm anti-southgate. First half last night was poor in terms of forward play as attested by Raheem Sterling laying into Shaw for going backwards all the time - GS clearly gave them a rollocking at half-time, miles ...

KRBFC

Including the 2 pre-tournament friendlies it's 7 games without conceding for England now, and there's been some decent tests in those 7 games, Austria who pushed Italy all the way, Croatia who pushed Spain all the way, and the Czech Republic who have also impressed in this tournament, so it's hardl...

KRBFC

you sound like you've been lucky enough to have only watched England in 3 tournaments, the rest of us have been left traumatized over the decades !!! :lol: :lol: :lol: Which makes your anti Southgate nonsense even more remarkable, first manager since Alf to reach back to back semi finals, looks pre...

KRBFC

I'd fancy us to at best get a point against Germany and lose against the other 2. If we had a half decent manager I'd agree with you :D We aren't strong enough defensively, unfortunately. Jesus, you couldn't be more wrong if you tried. The only team in history to keep 5 consecutive clean sheets in ...

KRBFC

regardless of who we have been drawn against you would have to admit that in 4 games out of 5 we've been in control. Good management, squad rotation, strikers hitting form it's all there...dare to dream. Like I said during the group stages when people were whining, PEAK LATE NOT EARLY. Look at Holl...

Those three have won more grand slams than anyone else. If you are judging Murray against those three I don't think that's reasonable.

I think that's entirely fair given the 4 of them played at the same time, he was the 4th best.

Well he doesn't represent Scotland in the Davis Cup he represents Great Britain, and if you think 3 GS titles, 2 Olympic gold medals, world number one ranking, and a Davis Cup victory is underrated then you set demanding standards

His record against the other 3 is terrible

KRBFC

Never understood why the English try to claim Andy Murray as one of their own, he's a Scot and an overrated one at that.

KRBFC

Albrighton is a perfect Dyche player, works his absolute arse off, versatile, good character. He would be an excellent addition, his delivery is quality too.

KRBFC

England the first team in history to keep 5 consecutive clean sheets at the Euros!

What a performance. again.

Whatever happens now. He’s surely quietened all doubters? Superb England manager.

sadly not, he could go and win the entire thing and people will still whine and hate, it's an English thing.

I was going to post at half time that the comments on Shaw were bizarre. Hes been one of our best players in the tournament for me. If you were to criticise anyone at half time, maybe Walker after a couple of shaky minutes (one bad giveaway then waiting for Pickford when it was never his ball). A g...

No, no, no. We’ve been dominating apparently

Domination

KRBFC

57% possession in the middle to back 3rd isn’t domination! Mrs BoF, a non football fan just said “why do Man Citeh always thrash your lot yet we can’t do that to the Ukraine”…… It's complete one sided domination, they haven't even looked remotely threatening. At least your missus seems to know the ...

KRBFC

So you’d rather see a 1-0 win over a 2 or 3-0 win? You’d rather see slow tempo patience, creeping forwards ever so slowly? Versus high tempo attacking when the time is right to take it to our opposition? Just checking, as you’ll notice I never mentioned who’d be in the semi final. We are dominating...

I’m looking forwards to 85mins of negative non attacking football after that start.

You do that mate, I'll look forward to seeing England into the semi finals.

Gilmour has looked a good player when I've seen him play but I think i've seen him play twice, I don't think he was incredible against England like some are making out though.

Two of the brightest prospects in Europe now named a couple of years back. Fair play, KRBFC Although for balance I did say ''Only a matter of time before his latest signing Solanke starts firing too, looks an excellent prospect and potentially a bargain at £16-£19M with the way the market is.'' :lo...

Expect Phillips to be rested as he's on a yellow which expires if we reach the semi. Henderson to start instead. Kane is a funny one.... Do you play him and hope he now plays through having scored, or take the chance to rest him and play DCL as target man with a tight 3 no10s behind him? Why would ...

KRBFC

Knockout football anything can happen really, most of the time the best side doesn't win the tournament. I don't really consider knockout football as failure if you don't win, it's just how the cookie crumbles.

KRBFC

It was probably a red card in the modern day football where everything is a foul, it's incredibly soft but that is football in 2021. unfortunately

Well I’m not wrong because a red card was given by a professional referee and his decision was agreed with by a former professional ref. By all means disagree as it seems I’m in a minority, but if anyone’s wrong it’s you.

Peter Walton agrees with everything tho

KRBFC

Soft red card that, Peter Walton is absolute clown

Have the womens team signed any professional players yet? I thought maybe ALK would've brought in a couple of well known women players from the US to boost it's progress quickly.

Apparently signing for PSG Football really is just a job these days, players will play in sh!te leagues in front of small crowds with very little worldwide interest in the league/teams just for the money.

He certainly made a regulation tip over the bar look far more spectacular than it needed to be.

He barely saw it and it was coming fast, very good save.

I also forgot to mention, if relegated we still have to pay transfer fees which I think are now paid over the length of contract.

The issue with a relegation, is which players (and management) are prepared to stay and seek promotion, we should be ok if we did what we did last time and come straight back up with a largely stable squad, beyond that it quickly gets difficult - this is where the non-tv revenue is so important - i...

KRBFC

Even though I don't think we'll be relegated whilst SD is in charge if the worse does happen will there be any back up plan in place, such as a relegation clause on SD's contract? Also, it's fairly obvious that TV revenues and marketing opportunities will pretty much dry up outside of the Prem. Oth...
