Let the conversation continue.

What a waste of time 😑

Me too

Bit bored are you?

its unusual to see

Agree and we had /have Bellingham .
And kane
And the others .

Messi is such a horrible little twat. I hope Spain fire him into the sun.

Argentina are such graceless winners. COME ON SPAIN!!

So what's the problem then?

Perfectly normal imho.

Nonsense

Very few foreign manager sing along to the national anthem.

Sarina Wiegman doesn't, she has won titles.

Best bit of the tournament was Kane's squeaky voice 🤭😆

Exactly, he was right all along apart from whatever the hell happened here tactically.

Bloody Argentina.
Hope Spain prevail

I want Spain to really really punish tne Argentians ! Big time

Cheer up everyone - at least the Falklands are still British (and that's what the smirky ones really want!) 😍

do you ever see a news programme with only male presenters?

Im used to watching sports commentary with male and female commentators

🤣🤣🤣

Exactly. After parts of Saturday's performance this isnt a surprise! Just annoying how quickly it all changed after we scored! Or how quick it woke up Argentina because it was constant and was coming.

Yep he was right. And the team played SO much better today so whatever coaching he gave in the last three days paid off.

Yeah that was funny, he sounded like a 90 year old man! 😆

Look, at the end of the day, England got to the top 4, and may get third place yet. They did well despite their manager shitting all over them... Onwards and upwards. The lads done good!

they didnt do good. they didnt win......as usual

As Micah says, we don't keep the ball well enough. That's it, always has been.

New thread.

Most of us would swap the Falklands for a place in the World Cup final. Deal or no deal.

Nope, it’s not nonsense. Managers on a managers wage should sing the national anthem. Plenty of other managers out there

He goes missing most matches to be honest!
