No ifs or buts there. You could have any combo of any player in the squad playing any system you wanted and it wouldn’t have made much difference.
Spain didn’t let you breathe for nearly the whole match and getting the ball back off them was a nightmare. They just do the basics better and probably should’ve had 3 or 4.
There is solace in being beaten by a better team. Unlucky.
Who would take it? Howe would be giving up a great team who he sees every day, for the right to be pilloried and armchair manager abused constantly, for a team he sees for a couple of days before a game…
A late night gender reveal disaster in a pub carpark?
For fucks sake. Another chance squandered.
Can anyone explain the Sunday League long ball tactics for me?
Can’t even be bothered to get into it with you lot. I’m absolutely gutted. Again.
Only Southgate can explain that unfortunately no point waffling on about it in here 
Walker hugely at fault for both goals. Hopefully the last we see of him, Kane and Southgate for England now
No doubt the right team won it. Not just tonight but across the tournament. But this one for me hurts the most. Kids under a certain age thing England getting deep into tournaments is normal, and in my lifetime it’s not. So to consistently get so close but not do it… It hurts. Not sure I can blame anybody because of how good Spain are. But still..
Better team tactically 100%, and they deserved to win.
On paper, and with a manger that knows how to play football when they have spent over a month together England walk it I’m sorry.
Eddie Howe wins that final 100%
Anyway back to the normal shit.
Isak staying, Bruno everyone staying, made 65 mil off 6 million let’s go, fuck PSR it’s a fine next year
Ok. You tell yourself that.
Good night.
He does. Have you watched Newcastle play at all in the last 24 months? Have you been to games? To you go to Paris on European nights, do you watch Villa play week in week out and Wolves???
No you dont. So you can bang on about I played I football and was good but you don’t watch it.
Or go to games, so if people have an opinion who bother to go and watch this stuff then let them have it.
. Ok
I like you man but you are annoying as fuck in this thread
Fucking rugby I’m there, snooker, cricket, whatever you like I now hate it
Get Southgate’s cock out your mouth
At this point I don’t care about Southgate, just that Les loves Southgate, probably prefers someone like Giggs in charge - but more, well we all know
2006-2009 Boro manager, England U21 for 3 years 2013-16 the England since (lol) Big Sam.
Get Eddie in, fuck it we can buy whoever we want now.
I can’t help it if you say incredibly silly things. It’s ok. It hurts tonight. Take it out on me. I can take it 
What’s silly, Eddie wins that tournament? He does
Yeah stuff like that! A revved up Eddie Howe swashbuckles his way past that Spain team no doubt.
