Simon Jordan CLASHES With Alex Crook Over TEAM LEAKS Days Before Switzerland Game 😤😡 

Leaking out information to the press for money should be a dismissible offense. End of.

Crook pretending he has high placed contacts in the game always makes me smile.

Simon Jordan not buying Alex and Sam’s BS. Love it

Matterface has to one of the boring pundits I’ve heard! Absolute melt 🤦🏻‍♂️ his tone is just a relentless drone!! Horrible 🤢

Sounds like a lot of excuses from ‘press people and journalists’ justifying their importance and roles at this tournament… agree with Southgate… if you’re English, don’t report any harmful news 👍🏼

Ban the media completely around the camp. Southgate & the players have literally invited them in and they’ve shown they can’t be trusted. There is no reason at all for the media to be watching training sessions.

Easy to leak the England team for the semi final… It’ll be the same old Tripe!

Alex is the worst person on talksport

What a bunch of wobble. If these journalists learn our tactics and formation before a game they have a duty to keep it in house until the time England are happy for them to say so. No wonder the players and staff feel the country is fighting against them.

Doesn't take a genius or insight to work out how Southgate is going to set the team up

I'm surprised that the story about team leaks isnt bigger. It implies that there is a mole in the England squad whether it be a player or someone else close to the squad. Who is this mole?

The England camp released the news of the formation change to try and get the fans behind them!

Alex crook and Sam matterface are the 2 worst on talksport by a mile

Kyle Walker along with Saka has been England's best player.

If he plays Trippier against Dumfries, we may as well not turn up.

Not leaking the team if you are somehow privy to it doesn't make you a 'cheerleader' tbh. It's just putting your personal support of the team ahead of your profession. Not saying they should do that, but it doesn't automatically make you a cheerleader if you choose to. I don't think anyone wants the media to act as an FA mouthpiece, but leaking the team ahead of the game could be seen as directly affecting England.

Alex looks at Sam like Bert looks at Ernie 😂😂

He doesn't think that anyone's been demonised.........how about Southgate! We don't want to go back to the days when England players don't want to play for their country again.

Crookey monster

By luck, nook or Crook we’ll get to the final

“Leaking tactical information” Southgate, you don’t have any tactics to leak in the first place

Don’t leak the team, thanks

Why would anybody be interested in the thoughts of Sam Matterface when he is clearly the worst radio and tv sports so-called commentator ever ?

The Dutch game and the final if we get there will be much better games to watch because there will be no buses parked....that said there's much more jeopardy in them and there's already been plenty. I can't see England winning the Euros for the same reason I thought they wouldn't at the start. The defence.

Too much effort for Alex to even watch a training session...

Alex crook is a very professional journo but i get the impression he would murder sell his kids to get a good story. A proper talksport man😂

Why has the "Crook" been allowed to get such a big audience/position. He's a twitter news aggregator who knows some people at his local clubs on the south coast. Gareth is right, our team has to fight against a lot of circumstances which should be avoidable.

It doesnt really matter what the team is, other teams can easily adapt within 30 seconds

What does it matter? We’ve had a Bye to the semi finals anyway, probably spawn a win v Holland too

Look at Ericson's three quarter finals in a row. Regardless of whether or not they should have done better, look at all the misfortunes. 2002. Pre tournament injuries to Gerrard and Neville. Beckham broke his metatarsal in April ( is that why he bottled it for Brazil's equaliser?) 04. No Rio due to the drugs test thing. Rooney breaking his foot against Portugal. Campbell's perfectly good goal being disallowed. 06. Rooney injured before the tournament. Owen limping out during the group stage. Beckham went off early during Portugal game, before Rooney followed him for the stamping. Bobby Robson, Hoddle and Fabio could point to similar moments. Southgate has suffered no significant injuries (depending on your view of McGuire), no sending offs, no dodgy refereeing decisions. In 4 tournaments!! I'm standing next to that man in an electric storm!!

England shouldn't be changing tactics mid tourney anyway. They should have a set tactic they play to make the best use of their best players and every other team would know what that tactic is. The only surprise here is he has been picking ridiculously bad tactics so bad that nobody knows how we will be lining up. How many teams are here changing tactics every game? We are supposed to be the best team here so our tactics should he set in stone and other teams should be changing their tactics to get around us.

I can think of 4 things that would come in handy in the room.

Somewhere I think the media really is failing - I know about England. I know what to expect from Southgate. I would have guessed our team more accurately than the supposed 'leak'. What I really want to know more about is our opponents/formations/starting line up/players/strength/weaknesses. Far too little talk about that.

I feel like Southgate is telling the players to keep it tight until the last 15-20 mins , I think they’re being told to hold back and as long as we’re in it till the latter stages he fancies a piece of quality or good fortune will wi it … dangerous if it goes wrong

"It's part of our job" says Jim. No, it's not

You mean they have a plan. A bit like the scene in blackadder about what the plan is going to be.

Haha Simon doesn't like Faye Carruthers then 😂

All of a sudden Holland has one of the best defenses in the world? You saw them vs Austria?

They dont like it when someone takes aim at them but they can criticize others. If you can give it you can take it.

why is matterface sitting lower than simon is like a spitting image thing

Do we doubt that the FA have the British sporting media in their back and front pockets? Of course, they can have a pop at the manager and the players as long as they don't mention the FA, UEFA, FIFA, or the PL for more than a few fleeting seconds.

Funniest part is even the most negative of fans understand that media perptuate all narratives

England have better players, Koeman is a better Manager, I think that'll be the difference...

The question should be, should the english press be releasin the information regardless of where they get it from that may hurt their owns countries chances? Thats a question they need to ask themselves. Its almost like sabotage or they might call it, reporting the news

Giving tactical secrets over is traitorous. Don't spend weeks slagging off the team ( 'oh but we just know they can play better and we all want England to win blah blah blah' ) then sell them out for clicks. Gutter snipes.

Rene said more in that short segment than his daughter did the whole match when she was on commentary the other day

When my missus gets annoyed with me she shows me her Matterface

Gutter press

Crook and Matterface?! ffs I'm already depressed I don't need more reason to give up

They should ban journalist from training sessions. Do Liverpool or Man City have journalists lurking around their training grounds prior to Champions League finals? Why is it okay in an international tournament?

Shock, Jim the numpty! defending the media

Simon always says that Poch will win nothing for Chelsea, my question to simon would be, if Man City stay at the same level and keep Pep as manager, what other manager is going to win something? Simon pleàse name them.

Alex does great Southgate facial expressions

Gareth's hell'a naive for someone of his vast experience I'd that's not an AI generated clip, especially in this day and age. Mind blowingly so.

Watkins vs van dyke ..watkins bagged a hatrick with him at the helm

Yeah good about time rumours are surfacing! Devils advocate here but Palmer Gordon Ivan don’t strike me as willing to keep things inside them ,because must be enormously frustrated on what they see. I can see players physically tired yet keep getting chosen before them …

I couldn't care less if Southgates England lost

The press are incredible The man says don't reveal insights on team tactics, it is not too much to ask, but these idiots will do anything for engagement. For once I agree with Simon.

Is Matterface on the MI5 payroll ? Worth monitoring

Didn't Jordan shut White down about cheerleading for Scotland toward the end of the video. Talk about make him look a mug.. And not before time either.

The cameras go off after 15mins. Doesnt mean press people arent around after that.

France vs England final, England 1-2 France again

I cant believe matterface is the leading ITV commentator over the likes of Clive Tildsley. The guys THE most boring pundit ever

Unless Gareth names the team 5 mins b4 he should//you will never stop leaks FACT!!

I like and above all respect Simon Jordan as a man and so tend to agree with his take on matters. Whereas I can stand Gary Liniker or Darran Southgate and have no respect for either of them. Therefore I don't care whether I agree with them or not or whether Southgate wins anything or not I want them both sacked anyway so I am not forced to either listen to them or worse still look at them ever again. .

I would ban them all reporter's no what they are doing

Spain is the only team that would beat england not the Netherlands.

Still Holland by the way of play will win against England big time

Alex the Crook stealing a living

Don't really think the leaks make a difference.. "oooh they're gonna play Trippier Left..." I'm sure the opposition were quaking in their boots

Why not put a decoy line up out! Or grow some balls and promise the player/agent leaking the info will be dismissed! Southgates weak

No CLASH what so ever lol

So then Gareth copied the Swiss set up!!!!@@@ 😮 Couldn't write it...

Stop saying they should play high tempo, these players are not built that way. England doesn’t have broad defined football philosophy.

Jesus i can't stand listening to matterface

Rene is funny

Go 3-5-2 against Holland

I think Crook is just thick and struggles to keep up with the conversation.

Super Elite Simon = Top LAD Proper Clobber 💯 Facts

England have the best player in La Liga?? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 English media are ridiculous

Southgates sister then hit the nail on the head

That would be the mouthy Mancs that Leaked like always 🥱

It's a leak if the media spread the information but not if the players spread the information 😂😂

Prediction is Netherlands play into englands hands ! 3-1 to the 3 lions ..

Have to agree with Simon. Very slimy behaviour from the journalists

Netherlands not Holland, get your facts straight, bit like saying England or Yorkshire

It's not the media's fault it's your camp's fault Southgate. You got a rat find them

I think Sam got his maths a little wrong....pretty sure England don't have 60million fans...I think you are including the UK there and pretty sure a lot want us out lol

England are not a good team. Amazing players but the manager just isn't good enough. The Dutch will take them out

How many times did Turkey get behind the dutch. They were at 6s & 7s at times in the last 10 minutes. If the turks had a proper goal moocher the dutch would be out. Its beyond me what these pundits watch.

Stfu!...BACK THE TEAM! ENJOY backing the team!! As it's COMPLETELY OUT OF YOU'RE HANDS 😊✌️

First time seeing Matterface. I thought he was about 60 the way he speaks. What a boring guy

matterface is an agent, he cant be wrong can he. and he hasnt proved hes a man in his entertainment life. you leake the team 3 days early to make news. thats final

Alex Crook is the second biggest grifter in sports, behind Kaveh Solhekol on Sky Sports. Unfortunately for me, they are the least of the problems in football at the moment. I'm sick of seeing grown men who lack any kind of self-respect cheat by rolling around on the floor, screaming over the slightest bit of contact (if there is any) for the entire match. Mediocre players are being called 'world class,' goalkeepers can't even catch a ball, and cowardly players halfheartedly try to head the ball to name a few. Ex-professional players praise England's performance against Switzerland, calling it amazing, but it was diabolical. They had one shot on target in 90 minutes, and every cross they made was to no one, not even close to anyone. People have been fed this nonsense for years and repeatedly told that it's great, to the point where they actually believe it. The powers that be have taken a sport that I loved for 40-odd years and turned it into the abomination I watch today. I don't expect it to be as brutal as the '70s and '80s, but some middle ground between then and now would be great.

Has Crook, changed his jacket once during the tournament 🤔

I’m not a fan of Sam matterface but he’s a very good commentator to be fair to the man

Team leaks and journos love it. They are responsible. But they do anything for an article.

Get your clogs out😎👍🏻

Alex is so lucky to have this job any overweight guy with a beard could do that job

CLASHES
