Why does the PL always flatter to deceive? Foreign players are always better technically and have been for decades 🤷🏻‍♂️

You obviously don’t watch La Liga. The guys a genius until he swaps his Real Madrid shirt for an England shirt. He was the same for Borussia Dortmund.

Whilst we’re only one behind we’re still in it even if we are bring run ragged by a much better team.

With the players we’ve got in our squad, should we really be playing this whole tournament SO pedestrianly? It’s ridiculous. It’s like watching paint dry it’s that slow, predictable. I think our defenders have actually been good…. It’s what’s ahead of them that the problem.

Always in with a chance at 1-0. I wish pickford was a foot taller and could catch rather than punch!!

Time for Palmer and Watkins for Mainoo and Kane I think. Just don’t leave it too late against these boys Gareth.

I’m pleased Gareth finally read my message 🤣

Do Everton play the long ball game ? Because Pickford s long ball crap is pissing me off as well. All he does is give possession away!

There you go, get the ball to the by line, pass it back into the box, defenders running towards their own…. GOAL . Spain have done this the whole tournament: it’s simple , old fashioned attacking football !

Spain the better team undoubtedly but OMG, Southgate wasted 60mins of this game with a pedestrian striker! So much pace and talent left on our bench , playing it safe the whole tournament and scraping through so many games.

I don’t think we can complain too much about that. Well deserved winners and probably the best team in the tournament and we gave them a run for their money and could have scored a late equaliser which we didn’t really deserve.

At least a lot of people here will be happy in the morning snd by the sound of it outside the party has already started. Hopefully our fans will behave themselves and let them enjoy it.

Well done Spain 🇪🇸⚽️🇪🇸⚽️🇪🇸⚽️

We probably have more talented individuals but a less talented team. Last season Ipswich were completely the opposite. Let’s hope England don’t want Kieran McKenna to get the most out of them.
