I don't think he plays Trippier at LB without a left footed CB
I don't think he plays Trippier at LB without a left footed CBI’d be amazed if he doesn’t start with pretty much the same side as we did against Croatia with the only change being Maguire for Mings.
Anything but the final would be an embarrassment now.
Losing to Germany would not be an embarrassment. If we overcome that hurdle, anything but ‘runners up’ would be a failure for Southgate.
Yes it would
When was the last time we beat Germany in a knockout game?
Our team isn’t much better, still got class all over the field. They put 4 past Portugal

I wouldn't say we've got a much better team, but I think i'd rather have ours than theirs.
Attacking wise I think player for player we're better. I'd rathr have Kane, Foden, Grealish and Sterling over Werner, Havertz, Gnabry and Sane
Defensively both have deficiences. Their defence is getting quite old and I think we've got the pace and technical ability to exploit it. Rudiger is open to mad moments and lapses of concentration just as much as Stones, Maguire and Mings.
One position I worry about is goalkeeper. I think Pickford is quite a poor keeper, error prone and doesn't concentrate enough. I also think at times his shot stopping can be quite poor and he lets stuff in or pushes it out/spills it into dangerous positions far too often.
I'm more worried about us making an error than them getting through us.
Great, the same Portugal who only won one game. They also couldn’t beat Hungary. It’s a matter of opinion and I believe we have a much better side.
So after earlier saying it was very unlikely we'd make the QF stage because we'd have to play France, Portugal or Germany, you now think two of those three teams are nothing to worry about and it would be an embarrassment if we didn't make the final?
What does that have to do with anything? We are at home with a team much better than theirs
Yes I still don’t think we will make the QF because our manager is a clown and it will be an embarrassment. Hope that clears it up. What did you make Bobby Bridge for lunch today?
No one has England as strong favourites. We’re ‘slight’ and the consensus is that this is pretty much a 50/50 game.
No one has us as favourites because our manager is a clown. With a decent gaffer we’d be heavy favourites.

A decent manager like Fabio Capello would get the job done against the Germans...
I’m going with:
Croatia 1-2 Spain AET
France 2-0 Switzerland
No mate don’t you know we should just be happy with losing to the Germans because we never beat them. We should just be happy to be here like the Welsh and the Scottish
Wenger or Jose would have been perfect.....shame Roma got him the FA should have tried it
I expect that we will win against Germany. To suggest it’s an embarrassment to lose that game is just unreasonable and no respectable pundit would agree with your point of view.
Write Germany off at your peril.
Let’s be honest, our group wasn’t easy. Czech Rep have just dumped the Netherlands out of the tournament and held the then top scorers of the tournament to a clean sheet.
Likewise, if Croatia beat Spain, it’ll tell you a lot about our performances against those teams because neither team caused us much problems defensively.
Thats right, he did such a fantastic job at Spurs didn't he

Seriously, you wouldn't take Jose?

Ffs I wish Eni Aluko and Alex Scott would agree with me. They’re the fountains of all football knowledge of course
Notable that you ridicule the female pundits. Says a lot about you.
We’ve gone through the process of hiring big name, successful foreign managers. It just hasn’t worked out for us at all.
Mourinho is too abrasive, falls out with players too often and think he wouldn’t do well international management. I’m actually quite fond of Mourinho compared to most people.
His tactics would probably work, but seriously doubt he could keep a camp happy for a tournament.
Jermaine Jenas and Ian Wright are just as bad if that helps you mate
And what do they have in common
Lovely guy you, aren’t you?
Yeah you might be right.I don't think he plays Trippier at LB without a left footed CB
