The Footie Thread

[Bunkermagnet]

I hear Klopp's not doing anything at the minute. Any chance we could get him in for the rest of the tournament on a short term contract?

At least you know he would fire the players up and have them playing at a tempo the top clubs and bestNtaional teams now play at.

I’ve just spent a lovely hour or so eating a fantastic meal overlooking the sea, and there were various nationalities sitting nearby, many speaking with those at adjacent tables about the football they had just watched in nearby bars.

I’ll say it as they appeared to see it. Sorry,
folks, but our near neighbours on the continent think the England football team is a joke.

More pertinent, is that they aren't wrong.

Sod the football.
What did you have to eat?
Can’t beat a nice meal overlooking the sea.

Why are you the only one not seeing his limitations and a poor performance today?

Or he’d just go around fist pumping & shouting Boom

There were 10 poor performances, why highlight just 1?

 

[Tashyboy]

Whats the point of bringing them through if he is too conservative to bloody play them in a match that has consequence? Southgate is simply too scared of sticking his neck out and taking a risk.

Adding to this, if Southgate did try and be brave and give a chance to palmer etc. at least we could say he tried. The problem is he gave EZE a try yet took off the very player that would try and feed him the ball.

And all of the players would have fantastically white teeth on display while singing the national anthem before the final.

I'm not. I've already said with the exception of Pickford who made a couple of saves no one played well but there is this defence of TAA that I find strange when he was one of the poor players especially his passing. I just don't understand why

Pah,what do the Spanish know about football.

You don't understand why a Liverpool player is being defended by a Liverpool fan? TAA could walk into LP's house, shoot his pet dog and take a on his kitchen floor, and LP would still be defending him.

I had the biggest and best swordfish steak I’ve had in years. Beautiful.

The defence of TAA probably comes from the same people highlighting TAA as they are trying to get the Lpool fans to bite?

Bunkermagnet even proved TAA did more positives than others in the match, but that’s dismissed.

Now we’re on to Klopp posts and the same old posters are jumping on to the like button.

Careful. I made much more diplomatic posts yesterday, and someone demanded I be reported to the mods.

 

[PaulMdj]

Never said you

We could blind the opposition then

Stop being over dramatic! I politely asked the mods in a public post, #60148, nobody demanded anything.

No it isn’t, it’s because he’s not an international class midfielder and shouldn’t be anywhere near our starting lineup. Yet another huge gaffe by Sir GS.
Are people trying to wind up Bayern fans by having a pop at Kane?

Blimey that's low. Fancy not being adult enough to cope with other people's opinions regardless of how harsh they are. They probably still live at home with their mum in the basement .
