I'm still not convinced all these players are great till they actually beat a top team and run the show… yes Bellingham and Rice were real good… but how many touches and passes did Griezmann make and he looked like the fella with control on the game… Kane will score but against top opposition u need to have pace as well…. So Ok we have some good players … are they world beaters … cause thats what u need to win the World Cup…. Are we really that confident that this lot would beat Messi in flow in a World Cup Final… I know Rice and Bellingham are good… and Messi ageing but surely Messi a few levels up from Griezmann… And I'm not convinced about Potch X
Lets face FACTS, ENGLAND ARE CRAP, AND A BUNCH OF BOTTLERS, YOU CAN SEE THE FEAR IN THEIR FACES. KANE HAS NO EXCUSES, HE BOTTLED IT, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD, YOU MUST AT LEAST HIT THE TARGET , HE WILL LIVE THE MOMENT HE LET DOWN AN NATION OVER AND OVER ,FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE, AND SO HE SHOULD, DISGRACEFUL, MY GRANNY WOULD HAVE AT LEAST GOT IT ON TARGET. .
Totally agree. We bottled it. Just like we bottled it against Croatia and Italy. As soon as we come up against a top team we end up second best despite playing well. I’d give Southgate until the Euros and if we don’t win it sack him.
Well for me i knew England was not good enough to beat France whoes best players were not there and our best players on the bench were not given a chance to play there was no Tactics from the manager manage with tact and Braveryb after 65 minutes change the Team take a chance win or loose so . I am disappointed but not surprised.
I'm 62. Chances are that anybody born in the last year will never see England win a World Cup. They need to stop imagining that the cup rightfully belongs to them. They aren't superior. Like all the other countries,, we have to earn the right to raise the cup. Grow a pair and don't count yourselves as heroes. The French were better than us because they had the passion and belief to grind it out and win.
England has the best squad, in terms of talent and strength and depth. Yet Southgate hasn’t got a clue what to do with them. England have gotten to where they are on talent alone and in in spite of and not because of Southgate and now they need a manager to take them to the next level and actually win something. Case in point, he took off England best player in Saka and left the liability that is Kane on the pitch. If he was going to sub anybody, it’s Kane who should have been off. Kane was more dangerous when he was playing nearer to goal not when he goes wondering deep.
england dont have players at top level , they dont form players , in the premier league they buy players from other countries to make their fans happy , when comes at countries there is barely players who can win the team a trophy
The country is run by simps and the FA is no different, Simpgate is the FAs man They don't care about winning, its all about PR and doing it for the sponsors.
Just look at the teams England has defeated and against whom it has been defeated. There's everything we need to know about England: They haven't been able to beat stronger teams than themselves.
You saw Italia 90? The highlights maybe, you weren't old enough to see it live and remember it in any detail. Keep it real, why don't you? Brazil played better football than anyone in 82, then lost to Italy 3-2 when cruising. So what if England played better than France. Playing better means taking your chances and winning when you have an off day. England bottled nothing, they just didn't have what it takes to score from open play. That's what makes France a better side. Stop the self-flagellation and just admit we aren't good enough when it matters.
They were afraid of France (rightly) that's said it was a mistake to play safe because they took you where they wanted. Three lions should deeply analyse this game because this was a very high level and tactical game and there is something to learn and to start over from to never allow this again
since the WC in 2006, England has beaten: Wales, Iran, Senegal, Sweden, Columbia, Panama, Tunisia, Slovenia, Paraguay, Trinidad & Tobago and Ecuador. They have lost to: France, Croatia, Belgium, Italy, Uruguay, Germany, Portugal and Brazil. Conclusion: England just can't deal with big teams. Don't think it is "lack of footballing talent" – I mean just look at the depth of this year's squad. Must be a culture thing. Lack of winning mentality or something.
"No matter how well you play football, you haven't mastered the sport until you have been coached by Mark Goldbridge." "Having the best XI in the world without Mark Goldbridge as the manager is like driving in a $500 million supercar without its engine." "There is no such thing as a manager who has mastered the game of football except those who have been taught by Mark Goldbridge himself." "If Mark could play as well as he teaches, he would be useless on the pitch as he doesn't have himself as his manager." Goldbridge in, Southgate out.
This took me a couple of days to get over it. We're too nice, too Southgate dare I say. Southgate is too nice, has his favourites, Deschamps is the opposite. We hardly got any bookings. We have managers that don't know what it takes to win trophies. I'd like Tuchel. Southgate is happy clappy and he'd have no chance in the EPL.
GOLDBRIDGE – “ENGLAND HAVE GOT THE PLAYERS” “Crouch, Bellingham, errr, umm” 😂😂😂 England are a national B-TEAM with rigged tournaments. It’s coming home BE QUIET 😂😂😂😂😂
England was close i dont like France team at all . If poor Croatia bring bronze medal you should gold or World Cup . Dont quit – your fans and friends from Belgrade .
An overrated team leads to unrealistic expectations and guarantees disappointment. I would normally suggest a bit of humility, but that's not really your strong point. Your players aren't as good as you think they are, for a start. And your teamwork is always an issue.

Here come all the armchair managers 😂
The best thing Southgate can do, is put a bag on his head, I dont want to see the clown again.
Has garath Southgate seen this? Can we not send it to his twitter??
No foreign manager has ever won a World Cup. Stick to home grown. Possible caveat.. Mourinho who has one foot in the UK.
Totally agree. We bottled it. Just like we bottled it against Croatia and Italy. As soon as we come up against a top team we end up second best despite playing well. I’d give Southgate until the Euros and if we don’t win it sack him.
Kane was more at fault then Southgate

Everyone celebrated the second penalty and I just knew he wouldn’t score it’s just scripted

What was England winning before Southgate?? Oh…. nothing. At least he's got to a world cup semi final and euro final

Southgate has too goo , so does Harry kane like england need to play attacking foatball
england dont have players at top level , they dont form players , in the premier league they buy players from other countries to make their fans happy , when comes at countries there is barely players who can win the team a trophy
Giroud was marked by 3 defenders and at mid thirties managed to get ahead of 3 defenders who switched off … Again!
Liverpool 'reach transfer pre-agreement' with Argentina World Cup star Enzo Fernandez
I’m Scottish but imo mark should replace Southgate 😂
southgate needs to go, guys you played against france not morrocos or croatia
Sean Dyche
england wont get anywhere while having maguire, pickford and rice in the team
The country is run by simps and the FA is no different, Simpgate is the FAs man
They don't care about winning, its all about PR and doing it for the sponsors.
England is not strongest team. So no need to worry. Go and play cricket
Calm down man…Holidays are coming..holidays are coming…

Mark is making very good points
Kane is just not a winner.
How did Trent not come on after that PK was missed?
This is brilliant. MG at his best.
SOUTHGATE is a FAKE

THE FA HAS EXPOSED THEMSELVES AS FAT CATS WHO ONLY CARE ABOUT KEEPING THEIR JOB RATHER THAN ENGLAND HAVING A CHANCE OF WINNING TOURNAMENTS
Finally an English fan that isn’t delusional about the team and its tactics.
England was close i dont like France team at all . If poor Croatia bring bronze medal you should gold or World Cup . Dont quit – your fans and friends from Belgrade .
your going ott tbh no offence
Rashford should start
