We have a core or young players who almost reached the promised land and believe they are good enough. Then we have several waves of youth teams who have won world and European cups at their age groups.
The next 4-6 yrs could be very exciting for England
How Lovren stayed on the pitch first half though? Without being too critical, you only get a few chances, and England needed to be more clinical. Croatia took over after that
Feels churlish to single anyone out, but *** if *** anyone deserves stick, itās Kane.
He hardly showed up in the 3 knockout games, and missed from 1 yard out in the semi final.
Not saying he deserves to be hounded, but as captain he should be more in the firing line than anyone else considering his performances. On paper, heās our only world class player, for chunks of this tournament he was carried.
That said, thereās undoubtedly positives. Hard to see this as a team as anything other than in the ascendcy. A manager we seem to be able to get behind. It looks positive.
Itās just hard to focus on that when that was so clearly a fantastic opportunity thrown away.
Think Kane was carrying his usual hidden injury - they suggested this in the studio afterwards⦠then why the fuck play him? Would IMHO have been a mistake⦠but all the bull about āTalismansā made it too important that he played regardless?
In the end Experience showed so now we have some, we need to make use of it it, learn from it
⦠finally, was it really necessary for ITV to have that cunt Keane as a pundit? Whenever he made a usually crappy comment the camera would cut to a wide studio shot and would catch the cunt smirking as if about to piss himself⦠typical ITV believing he is some sort of God after years of Cock sucking the whole of United⦠BBC had Klinsmann, who actually wanted us to win - decent bloke, not smug cuntā¦
Southgate was asked if Kane had an injury. He said no and that Harry was fully fit. Unless Harry was hiding it from the manager.
I chuckled last night when Keane said something like āas I always tell my playersā¦ā followed by some nonsense. As if heās ever had success as a coach.
Itās always the same. As soon as everyone hops onto the band wagon, it capsizes. And you can shove āthree lionsā up your arse, it fucking didnāt did it.
