Tragic Football Stories - Let us Kick Around the misshapen Jabulani that is English football right here

I mean I pity him for having to take over a load of flakes like England and Russia but the sort of characters who work at club level don't always work at international level.

tournament management maybe, but he qualifies like a MF

Would cost Russia $25m to sack him so they might have to stick with him for the foreseeable.

Owen on 2002 -That is how they beat England. It wasn’t much of a game and we certainly did not play to our potential, but it was Rivaldo’s brilliance turning the tie Brazil’s way before Ronaldinho’s fluke winner.

Love the way England players never deviate from this assertion that the goal was lucky.

pigshit thick

imagine living in a world where despite having the talent to beat every team at the highest level you seem to be undone by flukes over and over and over again

England = Sisyphus

“Embarrassing to see dinosaur Hodgson questioning the fitness regime of the forward-thinking manager Brendan Rodgers. Roy Hodgson’s incompetence must be frustrating for educated managers like Brendan Rodgers who travelled the world.”

so this is what dj martian's up to

got visions of a Roy Hodgson version of Fighting Round the World now

chiellini wingplay merks phil jones

England
01 Hart
02 Clyne (Walker - 45' )
05 Smalling (Carrick - 44' )
06 Jagielka
03 Gibbs (Bertrand - 88' )
04 Henderson (Mason - 74' )
08 Jones
11 Delph (Townsend - 70' )
10 Rooney
07 Walcott (Barkley - 55' )
09 Kane

didnt see any of the game but fucking christ this xi is some 1983 dogshit

how bout if I told u delph was best

i'd say you didn't see any of it then, because delph was fucking rank and couldn't pass the ball, england looked a damn sight better when he came off. his replacement scored the goal even

carrick england's motm

rly what was the point of any of this, lol at the media even halfheartedly calling it an experimental side

assessing jack cork should have been the first thing on hodgson's friendly agenda imo

Is this better, or have a few better coaches at clubs just under top-class with a mandate to string a few English lads into a coherent system made this look better, is there a difference?

"navas taking sterling's place, another example of a foreigner playing hurting english football" is what i thought i heard glenn hoddle just say

Dinho berbatov √√√√√
<3

that's an almost indiscreet number of legends in one post, deems

Jack whitehall √

Youd think damian lewis could at least act like a footballer

On evidence whitehall is a better winger than son

Daniel Busch ‏@dan_bu 9h
Leipzig manager Hasenhüttl says Burke has great potential, but his "harddrive is completely empty", regarding how to work against the ball

lol

This match

Only watched the last 20 minutes but lol

Fed up with Pyrrhic victories, I want a victory victory.

didn't watch it at all but lol

Zero ability up front but tell you what moving it from the back these guys look alright

This is a cracking game.

venezuela just brought on the injured sateldo and he is so far beyond everything else on the pitch it's actually amusing

VIDEO REPLAY PENALTY DRAMA

truly this is the greatest evolution of the game

Tackle looks good to me tbh

Pen stands and is saved

furious that danny mills cunt racism goes unpunished

Just biased towards ingerland m8

Commentators anointing the team with ninety seconds to go cunts will not be learnt

Onomah looks imperious set against his peers

Calvert-Lewin total shite

Tomori really does look an absolute walking disaster, almost scored his second and third og of the tournament today and just did his best to break his own keepers leg in the last minute of a wc final

what's this? John Terry has made his way onto the pitch wearing full kit

A goal of excellence

These centre halves trying to play it out of the back is a disaster tho

nice finishing dudes lol

quelle honte

John Stones is a third rate defender the other two are one order better

Dele Alli looks a worryingly one note one paced one trick player when spurs aren't buzzing around him

Raheem Sterling is appallingly one footed.

Otherwise not bad.

this game sucks

Dearie me.

Both of England's goalies are motm is the thing, the centre halves are absolutely stinking

Was that Cahill literally decided to start praying rather than defend there

The lack of creativity in englands creative players is nothing new but I mean sterling genuinely could not beat a tailors dummy

This is great
