Quote from: Copps is Magic on July 07, 2018, 04:55:12 pmWhat an absolutely mag f**king nificent complete performance form England.A little OTT. It was a thoroughly competent performance against a Championship standard side. That’s not a criticism by the way. But “magnificent” is stretching it a bit.

wow watching England under Southgate is different we expect them to lump the ball forward get a flick on and chase it , much more intelligent football been played and patient build up not what we expect but if it win again who cares
Couldn't give a f**k how good the squads are relevant to tournaments past or how good or bad the standard of the tournament has been as long as we're the ones lifting the trophy at the end of it.

People will talk about Spain, Germany, Argentina falling out earlier, Italy and the Netherlands not even qualifying, but before the tournament how often did you hear that this is the worst England World Cup squad ever? That Gareth Southgate was a nodding dog, FA Yes Man (and that was probably the amongst the more polite of descriptions, I heard far worse)?However we've done it, we've got to the semi-final of the biggest tournament in the world, and we've done it with a squad who seem to be all in it together and have done it with a smile on their face. If people want to pick fault in that, so be it, but for me even if we lose the next round I'll be proud of our side and look back on this tournament as the first one in some years that I've really enjoyed as an England fan.
I saw England win the world cup in 1966!But there was only 16 teams in the competition that year and 10 of those were European teams a couple from south America and North Korea
