Yeah, I think he might decide it’s time to move on / for some fresh ideas. He’s dove an excellent job all in all. There only one team that can win a World Cup every four years. Which I know is an obvious thing to say but one bit of bad luck / missed opportunity / a small error a can see you exit as that’s the nature of tournament football. I think the overly cautious approach in the final of the euros was much more of a missed opportunity than last night.

Jewels remain still cleaming

Another thing you’d have to admit is there aren’t loads of obvious better options. But he was absolutely at sea in the Senegal match early doors, like you say. Off having to play a higher line, which he basically can’t do, because he’s too slow

I don’t rate him so I’ll admit I’m biased but I thought he’d been getting away with it rather than playing really well. But that aside, for the second goal he fucking has to be goal side of Giroud before the ball gets played in. If he is then it very likely isn’t a goal

What about Morocco v Portugal?

I’m canny sad for the players and the manager as I think they seem like a good bunch. Actually like this team better than any since I was young and naive. Infinitely preferable to the ‘golden generation’. I also thought the players turned up against a side who are likely to retain their world title. Keane is spot on about the French having the nouse to find a way to win though

Maguire for the second goal, man. Just fuck off. That’s what you’re in the team for.

Him, not you

Another gargantuan cunt 👍🏻

Wishful thinking?

Did you really?

Delicious. Take that Ronaldo, you petulant cunt

Someone check on piers Morgan

Hi-De-Hi was every bit as good as a holiday at Butlins

The Portuguese manager always looks like he’s stepped outside his Mercedes taxi for a tab at Faro airport

Then you have that special bond between Sunderland and Feyenoord

You see loads of the grandad collar ones (home/away) without the adidas badge as it is

I think Toffs have lost the licence (which I think you may have mentioned before) but the the two 70s ones they did (pre/post 74 I think) looked absolutely class

Had generally good experiences with Dutch people I’ve met but they can definitely be arrogant as fuck. Look at Van Gaal. He’s an absolute 24 ct arsehole.

Liquid football

👍🏻

Pure Ronaldo-type behaviour

Aye, some goal that.

Not just that but they think we’d be somehow distraught if they could prove Benitez was shite. The club’s moved on light years anyway.
