Dom I really don't blame the players that manager set them up to fail with his tactics. I think that should be a sackable offence.

Mirth

Dom he is.

20 years on and England still don’t have a tactical or technical midfielder of note. Someone like Zubimendi would walk into this team.

Bellingham and Rice are great for different reasons but they can’t dictate a game or control a tempo.

Qwiss

Mirth has to be something at the youth level that means England have created a generation of good 10s but little else.

lorddulaarsenal

Rohit he is but must admit it’s sad watching a diminished version of him play

arsedocmd

Dumbest reaction to going ahead from england ever.

Rohit

Spain beating the Argies not a foregone conclusion. Argentina will make the matchup physical and slow unlike France. Then there is Messi. I would like to see Spain win but Messi conjuring up a script to be spoken off forever I won't begrudge.

lorddulaarsenal

Tuchel has to go by the way

awooga83

lorddulaarsenal totally this was all on him

invisibleman18

awooga83 definitely. Just ludicrous to have so many defenders on and sit in the penalty area with no forward outlet with half an hour still to go. Throw extra defenders on for the last few minutes but you can't hold on like that for 30+ minutes.

Pepe LeFrits

Mirth pray for Rodri to fuck off to Madrid.

That was absolutely shambolic from Tuchel. Like watching us play, except without any ability to defend. England were the better side until they scored, then totally stopped playing. I was only surprised it took Argentina as long as they did to score, because they continually looked likely. England's left side was so wide open and when they scored I said to my buddies in the bar Argentina would probably win it in regular time now. Such an implosion

awooga83

Pepe LeFrits agree totally we've done that many times and even us with our defensive quality we've let games slip doing that as England who have nowhere near that quality is stupid

Dom

Tuchel’s hiding from the interviewer

Edit: he’s out now. Look at him. The calmest and happiest he’s been the entire tournament.

Lukazan

Mirth He's shit. 😂 That's the brightside from this for English Arsenal fans. Man City have hung their hat on him.

Lukazan

Fully fit Saka and who knows. Wild opinion from the perspective outsiders, but we know.

Dom

Rodri and Messi have benefitted from the very slow play of international football, like Zidane in 2006 and Pirlo in Euro 2012.

In the league Rodri looks part finished.

Mirth

Dom In the league Rodri looks part finished

I hope so

Dom

Mirth

City's away matches to West Ham and Bournemouth stick out in my mind. Rodri looked like what he is: a middle-aged footballer with a foster ACL.

RC8

daredevil I am also Chilean! Father is from Chile, mother is from Spain. I also have an Italian grandmother who taught all of us how to cook, so we eat like Italians hahah.

Sorry about the poor result today. Seems very inexplicable to me that Rice was subbed off and Saka wasn't on the field.

Sicario2

RC8 Saka is finished btw

Mirth

Tuchel basically challenged Messi to unpick a low block.

Tactical masterclass.

awooga83

Mirth and a terribly shit one

Rohit

Tuchel was stupid to question the England performance after Norway with Bellingham backing the team. Then this.

Mirth

Rohit Tuchel doesn’t trust his team.

Which is fine if he didn’t pick them but he did.
