2 bad things for England. 1.) If they have to face France they need to play against Mbappé. And he simply would tear their "decent" defense apart with together with Griezmann. And a medioker goalie as Pikford isn't able to stop those 2. Remember last world cup Mbappé made a hattrick in the final. He was the first player ever to make a hattrick in a world cup final. 2.) It's to bad for the people of England Haaland choose to play for Norway instead of England. Because he also have the English citizenship. Because he was born in Leeds when his father was playing for Leeds United.
The media and all the over hype and over analysis is the curse of England fc Englqnd always has good players so they need a boss that can eliminate all of the pointless pressure from the depressing pressssssssss gangs
The English media are the real show offs thinking they’re a cut above everyone else the arrogance from them is why supporters from everywhere rip the piss .
Out in the quarter finals according to the AI. Will only scrape through the group. Hexed mentality. No body on the right wing - blame the Premiership. Unbalanced league unbalanced England. Impossible to square the circle. But the English were always anti intellectuals anti theory in all things. Neatherlands will do far better. Total football coming back? Neatherlands beats France in the final according to the AI. Different level.
Why? A combination of bad luck, lack of attention to detail and other teams having players who know how to seize key moments. England doesn't lack for talent and that's my take on their source of failure.
Englands opponents should not be reading anything into england losing to iceland England will be destroying teams with weapons like aways at these events In 2018 world cup group, england played tunisia, and england used weapons on the tunisia goalie so much, he literally just walked off the pitch, he could not take it anymore If your playing in goal against england, expect to feel sick, with the weapons they use on you to destroy you to try and get easy goals. Sonic gun binoculars used on people, is like your totally drunk, ie it scrambles your brains. Thats why todays goalies are constantly making mistakes today, as teams do not care what they do to get goals. If your in goal against england, expect to be feeling sick in that game, as england will use weapons on your players to make sure you cannot play, and especially on your goalie, so they can try and get easy goals. Thats why todays goalies, cannot save like they used too, and you see so many goalies now making mistakes, when these are top goalies. Footballers are humans, and teams like england, and france will be destroying there opponents with weapons, trying to stop them playing, and especially using them on goalies, so goalie cannot save shots Todays football is ruined, and its only going to get worse and worse Where are all the 0-0 that football used to have? Just remember all teams playing england, do not read anything into englands iceland game, as england will be playing around with things, and southgate will think people are dumb enough to believe it Englands opponants have to be ready for the garbage england can do to them with weapons on the pitch Its why in fa cup final, man city only warmed up for 15mins, as they knew man utd would be using weapons on there players in warm up, as man city do the same to other teams. Football is totally ruined today with weapons, and today its about using weapons with tactics to screw each other over on the pitch Its why real madrid keep winning, as teams cannot handle how they use weapons and there tactics of using them in games.
I think the probelm is that England aren't and have never been as good as they think they are. There are always stronger teams than them at every tournament, yet for some reason go in thinking the trophy is in the bag before a ball is even kicked.
If we look at the 8 countries that have won the world cup, 7 have won 4 or more international tournaments. England won the world cup, in England. They didn't have to qualify, they played every game at Wembley. This is not a track record of a power house football nation. Expect something similar, and you won't be disappointed.
Not sure if it was HiTC Sevens whom studied Englands’ progress through the 1966 event but the interpretation demonstrated how the team were more often than not on the good end of refereeing decisions along with the overall politics of the tournament weighing in their favour. I’ve never heard an alternative narrative or critical take on 1966 but it was a real eye opener. 👍
A lack of decent Brithish management is the main issue. Years ago, England had a great selection of English managers to pick from the only problem was they would always pick the safe hands instead of the most talented and astute mangers. Imagine picking Ron Greenwood over Brain Clough and Roy Hodgson over Harry Redknapp or anyone at all, really. So again, England has a talentless manger with all the charisma of a dead tortoise leading some of the most talented players in the world to inevitable and totally embarrassing defeat. When will the F.A of Englad get tired of this shameful and tedious mediocrity. Maybe when they do, they will get a seriously talented manager for England. Jugen Klopp needs a hobby 🤔
A loser mentality. Grab the game by the scruff of the neck. Shake the absolute shite out of the opposition by letting the attacking talent play with freedom. Lift that trophy. But, no! We've got Southgate. 😢
England are not entitled to win anything just because they put out a team in a competition. I'll ask you a question, if England had Pep or Carlo or Jose or Mancini or the French manager or Sir Alex or Wenger or Eddie Howe or Angelos "Ange" Postecoglou as our manager would we have a much better chance of winning the tournament? No reply needed.
Grealish Palmer(F9) Eze Maddison Bellingham Foden RicoLewis(IFB) Stones White Trent(IFB) Ramsdale On the bench, Pickford Pope Shaw Colwill Guehi Rice JoeGomez Mainoo TommyDoyle Elliot SmithRowe Saka OmariHutchinson Bowen Sancho Sterling Manager, someone who has previously played under or worked with Pep. Ex Spanish player and LaMasia graduates are preferable. Tactics, 09-12 Barcelona, 17-20 ManCity, tiki taka. Bellingham is the closest player England have in terms of matching the Busquets skill set. He has played number 6 for Dortmund at times and also in youth football. Even if you don’t consider him a number 6, he has to be the one because no other players can do the Busquets job as good as he would. Foden, Palmer and Maddison can’t quite do that. Palmer can play the false 9 role like Fabregas did. RicoLewis and Trent can be the Zinchenko and Cancelo. Eze and Grealish are probably their most tricky wingers if you want some of Ronaldinho/Neymar magic in your team. Ramsdale, White and Stones are their most tiki taka capable GK and CBs.
The problem of England is that they always wanted to go forward, they wanted to do it fast and efficiently. They don’t go sideways or backwards first in order to create the perfect situation to go forward. They think that doing more is inefficient. They wanted to get forward as quick as possible. As a result, they never get the ball forward in a perfect situation. Because they never create such situations. If the opponent’s defence is being dragged wide open, then making a pass becomes easy, and even a half decent pass would turn into a great chance. If the opponent defence is still in good shape, it’s difficult to make a pass, and even if you make a great pass, it won’t turn into a half decent chance. England always go forward against a defence that is still in good shape. They never think of going sideways and backwards to breakdown the defence first.
In Germany they argue which generation of world cup winners was the best, the 54er that still had their best guys in pow camps and still won, the 74er with Beckenbauer who also won the euros 72 and 80, the 90s side with Matthaus and Klinsmann who also won it in England 96 or the 2014 gen of the modern way of playing. Bit sad to think they don't even have those discussions in England
@@YourFootballZone Germany have won more trophies (7) than England have made SFs (6) 😮 They have more SFs (22) than England have KO wins (15) or QFs (18). How do you say in England? Mind the gap
@@YourFootballZone Not necessarily, only one nation can win the tournament. They only come round every two years, I always thought if international tournaments were played in a league format England would have won more. It doesn’t really have anything do with hype or the media, other nations do exactly the same. The Spanish for example had players who hated each other and their media is worse than ours. They still had 4 years of success.
@@businesssecretsofthepharao8901 hmm there’s still been plenty of opportunities to win tournaments. Spain have 1 WC & 3 EUROs, Italy have 4 WC & 2 EUROs, France 2 WC & 2 EUROs, Germany 4 WC & 3 EUROs. England are consistently ranked amongst the top 5 nations in the world yet are still stuck on 1 WC from 1966. Will see what this year brings anyway
@@YourFootballZone Of course there have been opportunities to win it, but that’s where the luck part comes in. Spain won 75% of their trophies in a 4 year spell. Germany historically have been like Real Madrid in the way they are not the best team at the tournament but find a way to win it, Italy’s trophies are sporadic and usually by being superb defensively. There have been some very very poor England performances over the years, but sometimes your luck just isn’t in.
saying that the Premier League has never been conquered by an English coach in its history, then talking about 1966 is a bit misleading, considering the Premier League era only started in 1992. An English manager won the top division the year before with Leeds, nevermind legendary English managers like Brian Clough or Bob Paisley.
@@YourFootballZone I mean it’s technically true but it implies a lot more that “they’ve never won the premier league in history” then “never won the top division since 1992”, especially when 1966 is brought up the next second. The premier league is just the same top flight of English football, the difference being that it was broadcasted on television, so I don’t understand the obsession people have with saying stuff based on it being since the “premier league”.
Exactly, it skips from 1966 straight to 1992. To be fair the England teams of the 70s & 80s were dreadful beyond belief, I remember Euro 80 being particularly bad. People often forget the English teams were dominating European football from the mid 70s to mid 80s. However the national team were utter shite during that period. The 82-85 period England was god awful.
The media build up the team before every tournament as favourites they didnt participate in the first 5 world cups. As they felt as they had massive advantage (ego) and they had give the world a chance to catch up. This has continuted to every tournament ever since for example EURO 88 they just had to show up and they would win the tournament. They finished last in Euro 88 in Germany. Now they are favourites again by the Brittish Media in Euro 24 in Germany. Will they finnish last again?
Is there really such a thing as a curse? Maybe it's just that England haven't been good enough. They are crap at penalty shootouts and they don't try hard enough and they don't play to win.
the reason England don't win shit is because of the fa. they are men running the team who have never played the game. they need a coach with passion, balls, leadership, good knowledge of the game and who is well respected. the only reason why we have the best players in the world is because the clubs want to win by any means so they get the best coaches. but what does that stand for when you have a man who was a shit player, soft character and really has no idea about how to win as the manager. come on man. It's funny how on the back pages they are saying England are shit they put saka on the cover when he has had the most man of the matches for England. mark my words England won't make it out of the group and again as an English man I wouldnt give a shit.
The EPL no longer attracts the best players in the world.....that's the point! If it did, then Vinicius Jnr, Bellingham, Mbappe, etc would all be playing for English clubs - not elsewhere. You could argue that we no longer attract the best managers either - look at United, Chelsea, Newcastle. It's delusional to think that we do - either in terms of players or managers. The days when we went toe to toe with La Liga clubs are over. I think in a few years time the EPL will be overtaken by Series A. The Italian league is slowly on the way back. Give it another five years and by 2030 we'll be losing players to Serie A - just like we did in the 90's. Everything goes in cycles. The EPL is now on a gradual decline, and Serie A, on a gradual rise.
I think that at last England are going in the right direction now, with the U21 team winning the last Euros, and the senior team getting to the last Final.
@martinranalli8572 I was ten years old, and on holiday in our caravan in the Lake District , when the final was being played. We didn't have a TV , but luckily had made friends , with a family that did. All the kids played football every day after this.
@@kimbirch1202 Ok. Unfortunately it was before I was born. How do you think England 🏴 will do in this summer's tournament? Do you think we will win?
@martinranalli8572 I don't have any expectations of England any more. And anything can happen in a tournament, such as injuries, luck, bad refereeing decisions, etc. As long as England play good football, and at least reach the semis, I would be happy, although of course I would want them to win the trophy.
I’m 60 & still waiting…..i only remember collecting the Esso coins as a 5 yr old with older brother in 1970 & because we didn’t have a tv throughout the 1970s it took until the game against France in 82 that i got to see them actually play in a WC !
