Danes are a better side than I gave them credit for, gave us a good run here.

KRBFC

If that is for me eddie ? You said the Danes were a decent side, I agree with that. 1 idiot claimed they are shite, then on the same thread claimed that someone doesn't know anything about football if they don't think Denmark are a good side. Why didn't you pull up the post where I said I was wrong...

baffles me that others don't see it - we simply have to fix our right wing issue this summer

I hope we go in for Reiss Nelson, should be relatively cheap. His Arsenal career has nosedived, Arteta doesnt seem to like youth.

KRBFC

So Verratti wins the French league every year (impressive by Poch to lose it this season) but has only come as close to winning anything in Europe as Harry Winks. No doubt he's a very good player when he's not being sent off but I personally don't think he's TOP class - I reserve that for someone l...

KRBFC

What are you judging Verratti being world class on ? I don't have an agenda against Southgate, that's in your head - I could accuse you of being pro-southgate regardless of his inadequacies but I don't. I prefer to debate. Had Chiesa stayed on we would have lost in the 90 mins, he was the best play...

KRBFC

no idea what you mean by flip flop The only reason we got pushed back by Italy (3 top class midfielders, not sure about that claim) was because we just kept giving the ball away and made it far too easy for them. We were the best side for the first 25 mins then that was it. Mancini made effective s...

KRBFC

He's the only one in our midfield who creates anything from open play, huge pressure on young shoulders and makes it way easier for other teams to suss him out.

he is the only attacking threat from midfield in our entire team - get a better player on the right wing and you'll see how good DM really is - we have asked him to do it all on his own

Grealish did more in the 4 touches he had than Mount did. Bring him on at 60 minutes and the flow of the game completely changes imho, we needed someone to carry the ball forward not a formation change. Either way, disappointed by Southgate's negativity again because he was positive in the previous...

How can you properly assess that like for like given the different length of time actually playing?

people were desperate for Grealish to replace Mount and when he did, nothing really changed.

KRBFC

I though Mount could have been stronger for the header that Pickford saved. He's in front but loses the man and then outmuscled. Overall it was fine margins tonight and on another night we see that out 1-0 or even turn one of our decent openings into a proper chance. Rashers though what was he thin...

not if we had swapped Grealish for Mount (who was incredibly wasteful in possession)

I'm a huge Grealish fan, he was no better than Mount tonight.

KRBFC

I just can't work out the choice of penalty takers and after they were chosen why they have to do a bloody dance before they take them. Why not just pick which side run up and put their foot through it, hope they learn from this. And if anyone should have learnt it's Southgate. Have they not practi...

All the pressure of a country on Sahko a 19 year old, Rashford & Sancho ...players who hardly played in the game......where were the senior players ??
Southgate ??

You can't even spell his name correctly but you expect to be taken seriously?

KRBFC

You may be able to explain this: When GS made his tactical change, what was the intention behind it? I genuinely didn't understand it, and Chiesa loved it. What was the tactical change? you mean going to a back four after they scored? We were pressed back with a back 5 and no outball, we looked leg...

KRBFC

When you look at the limits of Rice and Phillips in comparison to the Italian midfield is it any wonder that England were on the back foot for so much of the game? Yeah we lack options in midfield, we lack world class. I thought Henderson was gash tbh. A Paul Scholes/Carrick/Gerrard/Lampard would f...

KRBFC

Can only beat what's in front of you. Now you're whinging cos we had an easy route, but if we'd won you wouldn't give a toss. Some of you just need to give it a rest tonight. We should be proud of the team, they actually looked like a team and were so so close to bringing home a trophy, closer than...

KRBFC

Agree. Its a good save. Not blaming Pickford at all. Crosspool thought Pope would have saved the goal with his feet. I disagreed but said he might have got more round the save and pushed it wide. I blame Mount mostly who was shocking defensively for the goal (but that isn't his strength and probabl...

Hopefully i'm still alive to see England play in another final.

Helped you out there. You’re devotion is admirable, if misguided, You clearly don't know anything about football if you don't think Denmark/Germany are decent sides. I'm not claiming they're better than Italy because they aren't but they're absolutely decent sides. Unless you just don't understand ...

KRBFC

Remind me of the result. Yes, the first decent side we played. Croatia, Czechia, Ukraine, Denmark. Even A lacklustre Germany don’t even get near this Italy side, bo matter how much you don’t want to admit it. You make yourself sound stupid saying that's the first decent side we played. Germany are ...

It was a brilliant Pickford save

So what about the challenge on Grealish then ?
Straight red

I thought it was a red too, I can see why it was a yellow though, Jorginho wasn't high with the tackle, it was the sidewards angle of Grealish that made Jorginho make contact with the knee area.

Even in the first half the possession stats were 65-35 in favour of Italy, plus 6-1 on goal efforts.

We were 1-0 up, why does possession stats matter? Have you watched Burnley? 6-1 in goal efforts maybe but England were the better side first half.

Class above anything I’ve seen in a long time. Got every call right, I thought.

The use of VAR was refreshing or should I say, lack of. The PL has a bunch of spineless referees who don't let the game flow at all, there's nothing worse than watching football with a whistle happy referee.

Poor to lose a pen shootout if the oppo miss two. Thought apart from the pen subs and not bringing grealish on at the same sub Southgate got most stuff spot on. Grealish looks well ****** off (rightly so after e really shocking pens) Should've let Stones hit one the way Maguire scored :lol: It's ea...

The worst decision Southgate made was bringing Henderson on at all. He never caught up with the game and was very poor.

I agree with this, Rice was incredible in that first half, best I've ever seen him play, probably just shattered.

KRBFC

If you can’t blame a manager who bought two players on right at the end just to take penalties, who were not up to the speed of the game, then you are an idiot. No manager does that for a reason! No surprise they both missed. Also I am sure Maguire doesn’t take penalties but he has the experience a...

We bossed it for the first 20 mins. Raheem offered nothing yet was untouchable, Henderson sub was a joke and leaving kids to take the heat, well… Croatia mk II (and yet again the first decent side we meet) Aye first decent side we played! :lol: We lost a penalty shootout, it's a 50/50 thing, it is ...

Read the stats, look at reality and reconsider your response.

Expoultry boy is correct.

I thought we were the much better side in the first half, 2nd best in the 2nd half and extra time we shaded it, particularly the first half of ET.

KRBFC

Southgates awful tactics. Bring on 2 just to take pens and they both miss. Took Henderson off for some reason who can take a pen and doesn’t pick grealish as one of the five. Awful management. What is his thing about bringing a sub in just to take them off?! Got to the final on the luck of the draw...

Not given how he took the last one. We need to try and win it anyway & Kane is anonymous…

Rashford hasn't played at striker in years, replacing the best striker in Europe with him is asking to lose.

I think I know what you mean by re-invested, but that would require a very specific definition, as it is there is a lot that would meet the criteria as stated - including making the next share payment reinvested into the playing staff to improve the team. If they sold Mcneil to pay for the club I'd...

If we get silly money (£40M+) for Mcneil and every single penny is reinvested, I wouldn't be against it.
