| And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot
That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles

We conceded a goal in the 85th and 92nd minute In a semi final of the world cup to lose the game. Yes the Argies were and are good but but FFS that Is as good as being a crime at this level. |  |

That is on Tuchel absolute garbage. How many defenders does he want on. And gives Messi the freedom of midfield. Dreadful dreadful. That's the third finals that we've scored first and basically conceded the game. Look at Spain yesterday. Scored 1 and went looking for a second. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

No outlet once AG went off for Konsa. Even if he'd moved RJ into midfield we might have had someting to close them down with outside the box. When they hit the post twice and we carried on with the Paul Hart stuff, it was inevitable. We made the Argies' job way easier than we should have! |  |

The US has, after Mexico, the second highest number of Spanish speakers in the world, either as a first or second language. Certainly, a high percentage of people I know can get by with it, amigo. |  |

True Edward. If Southgate had done that, we'd be going bonkers. Tuch had the worst half of his career tonight, and I'm surprised TBH. Really thought he had mire smarts snd minerals sbout him. |  |

Trump hates Spain since refusing landing rights to his military aircraft and they effectively told him to do one. Oh well Mbappe on Saturday what else could go wrong. |  | |  |

All 12 people watching that game will be very disappointed to see the French second team beat however many centre backs Tuchel can cram onto the pitch |  | |  |

| England Thread 🏴 on 22:40 - Jul 15 with 1765 views | WorthingR | That one is on Tuchel. Going back 5 against Mexico was justified, we were down to 10 men. Against Norway it worked, because it was less time, with only a plodding Haaland as the main threat. But Argentina are not those two teams. And to do it on 70 minutes, with 20 + injury/hydration time to play just invited endless pressure. The extra CB made us less safe. It didn't protect it against either goal. |  | |  |

| England Thread 🏴 on 22:43 - Jul 15 with 1692 views | Juzzie | I think i’m more angry than disappointed. I know the manager only gets it right if you win a game but when Gordon came off I was gobsmacked. Way too early, if at all, to bring him off. Kane was fairly quiet most of the game which became invisible the last 25 mins which wasn’t his fault, he was a passenger. Ok.. so you decide to park the bus but no one was on the player who got the equaliser and it was Bellingham, again, who saw the danger but he can’t do it all on his own. Someone should have closed him down sooner. For the winner, great cross but no one near the scorer. Be right next to him and on him as he jumps, make him head it over but he had the freedom to score. Is all that on the manager or the players…. or both. I think we lost that game as much as Argentina won it. |  | |  |

Obviously! However, its how we could all f.....g see it coming a mile off and he didn'tthat is baffling. It's like he hadn't see how it failed for SGS and he didn't use it against Citeh in the ECL final in 2020. Grrr!!! The night we lost to Spurs in 82, we did so battling, if you have to lose, do it that way, not camped in your penalty area crapping yourself. |  |

That’s worse than anything Southgate did tonight I’m fuming with that We have wasted at least 3 golden opportunities in my life time Get rid |  |

In a way, I felt Italy was worse because if we'd won against a team who weren't much and who've not qualified for how many WC now, the monkey would be off our back! Tonight, not a final, but the capitulation was shocking. |  |
