  1. Saka was brilliant 🇳🇬 but that performance was disgraceful. 🇳🇬 🇬🇭 🇨🇮 🇦🇴 🇯🇲 come on! 👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿

  2. The most impressive display of penalty-taking ever from an England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 team. Well done, lads

  3. Gareth Sothgate what a role model and a Talisman for the sport in this modern age of abnormal influencers and weirdos…

  4. Tbh i was shouting for him to come off in the pub he lost the ball a fair few times on the break wasn’t just him but I was singling him out!! But Fair fucking play tho saka stepped up and done the boys back home watching in the pubs and living rooms across the land !! Come on England!!!

  5. You should all be ashamed of all yourselves talking about this is the best performance after getting the easiest side of the bracket still struggling scraping through with these over hype players…go take a look at Lamine yamal, Nico williams 16 & 20 years old and Pedri and how football is played!! Spain and Germany shows how the game is played

  6. Mostly Convenient BS by Southgate. He and they are lucky. It was a reaction… lucky. New manager in urgent needed after Euros!!! We want and need Excitement not 1 shot tippy tappy no dribble games.

  7. I'm a United fan but I love this lad, he's so humble, all the talk of Bellingham being the star player, Saka has to be a candidate for the Ballon d'or if ever we win the Euros. That's a huge if. Let's take it step by step.

  8. Just let the man manage the team, he’s not the best in the world and does have great players to work with but does Dave down the pub or this interviewer really think they could do a better job than the guys who has been in the position for years and has experience in the later stages of major tournaments and a Euros final, people are so arrogant

  9. Saka went from an inexperienced rookie to a player who can perform his task well under pressure. Kudos to him for stepping up.

  10. 'Were you about to make those substitutions or did the Switzerland goal make the decision?' GS – 'No, we were happy with the way it was going, but then they scored a goal, we had to change .'

    So, Gareth Southgate, was happy with 0-0 and wasn't going to change anything because he was nervous about Luke Shaw's endurance, but Switzerland scoring triggered his decision. It's painful to listen to, he is so inept at managing this team. The team has the talent, all he's got to do is place that talent on the field in the right positions, he runs the team with so much fear, I have no confidence he is going to get it right.

    It is so blindingly obvious that Trippier and Walker are absolutely useless at going forward and play with the same mentality as GS, they really are HIS TYPE of players. 'Boys, play cautious, always be safe, play it backwards even if you are facing forward and our wingers have a 1v1 opportunity and don't ever walk over the road unless you are at traffic lights'.

    A real manager would play on the front foot. Play players that play with freedom. We we're going into a game where England were going to dominate the possession (like every game so far) and yet he plays Trippier over Cole Palmer or Trent Alexander in an advanced wing position. Trippier offers nothing going forward, what was the point? I'm sure even Trippier knows this? Walker is the same, has no idea what to do if he gets forward. Spain has defenders overlapping, playing combinations, crossing and shooting, none of GS defenders offer anything to attack (Stones included). They are either shackled to their own half or are not brave enough to venture over the line. Trent Alexander is the guy who should play over Walker. He can score, cross, smash penalties in, pick players out 40yards away.

    It's staggering how GS cannot see the blindingly obvious. By the second game, it was obvious 3 at the back was the solution just for the simple fact, it would stop England's cautious back four constantly passing to one another (as we had an extra man against an attacking front 3. Honestly, I've started to think GS's strategy was to bore the opposition into a mistake. Obvious backlash to this dull, boring, lacklustre tactics led to him finally playing 3 at the back, but then puts Trippier in an advanced wing back position, WTF! I hope Trippier's injury is bad, that might solve the issue. But I have no faith GS will replace him with an attacking player like Cole Palmer or TA. He'll probably put Konsa there FFS.

    This talented team are stifled. It's a real shame. This team could have excited and thundered their way to the final, but it has been a cautious limp and it's all because Gareth cannot exercise his own penalty miss demons and has obvious nightmares of playing with an exciting England football team that put him in the position that has haunted him his whole life.

  11. Why are they so well media trained to just revert back to the same answers?

    Gabriel asks questions in such a lovely way and still gets nothing back 🤣😭feel sorry for him.

  12. Well done saka if kane was running into box when u crossed it in we myt of scored but instead he was walking need to swap him for Watkins or Ivan toni

  13. Happy with the result, but boy, my blood pressure was high throughout the game. Gareth, let's use the 3 defenders system again, and get the boys serving the strikers rather than wanting to be strikers themselves. Plus stop this tendancy of them always playing the ball backwards to our goal – get the ball up there so our strikers can do their magic!

  14. Southgate speaks so eloquently yet diplomatically in media interviews. Moreover, he's interesting to listen to. A real asset to England

  15. England will win it. Been watching for 35 years now.
    Spain 3 : France 1,
    England 2 : Netherlands 0
    England 1 : Spain 0.
    Spain the better side but England will play their heart out knowing that.
