Omg daytime

Seeing this through to the end

😭😂

It will only be worth staying up this late/early if Switzerland win!

ffffuuuccckkk

Bollocks

Well that’s bollocks

Snap

Well. Bedtime I think. Sad for Switzerland. They battled with 10 men. Argentina didn’t look that special

Bum.

Oh dear! Off to try and sleep but you know what, I don’t think Argentina look impossible to beat tbh !

Night night !

I agree. Night night

i went to bed at midnight and woke up to a goal from Bellingham!

If England win, do we get a bank Holiday?

Didn’t watch Argentina , but I knew they would win.
Thomas Touchy has upset Bellingham , although maybe the itv presenter shouldn’t have stirred the pot there!

How do we know Bellingham’s upset ?

Saw a news alert this morning that said he wasn’t happy with the criticism.

i am sure it might fire them up
it was quite lacklustre in the beginning

Dh was saying the same thing, he was trying to get them to say something bad. What a dick doing that, trying to dampen their win. For what it’s worth, I agree with TT, we didn’t play as good as we are, we were pretty sloppy and Kane was nowhere to be seen most of the game, but I do think the humidity played a part in it. Jude smashed it as usual, that kid carried the game imo! Kane needs to be back on form for Argentina

Jude’s only young still and will be fuelled by emotion. I’m sure TT gave him the praise he deserved as he carried the game. He didn’t even say anything bad, he was just being honest that we were sloppy

Yeah. Strange that.

NEEEEEVER STOPPED ME DREAAAAMIIIIING!

Is that a genuine post? Doesn't seem like Starmer's style.

Bit toe curling really. Like when the teacher tries to get 'down with the kids'.

That bloke interviewing Bellingham shit stirred telling him what Tuchel said. He could have waited for the gaffer to tell them all but it made good tv. Jude handled that well but you could tell he was pissed off. He needs to be told as do all of them. They need to up their game massively against Argentina. The boys did well last night.
