Oh dear. Hope whoever it is is ok.

Would a half time sacking be asking for too much?

Half our players cant stop the ball at the first touch. Maybe I'm just properly watching after a long time. 7 in 38 makes sense for these

Also serves the new owners right for keeping the prick. Enjoy now with your well thought out plans and excuses ffs

Its good we know have a real depiction of Bruce's reality on the pitch. That should be the headline instead of the giddy atmosphere. Incompetent prick continues to be incompetent in his 1000th game.

The defending there. Stands and waits Lascelles.

Whoa

Logged in for pre match for the first time in years and regretted it, to have this prick sprout absolute shite. Have rarely heard him actually speak, because why would you?, what a smirk little deluded man.

That little turd in the end that just wont go down the drain. The tower of shite that's taken its sweet time coming out the hole went down the toilet fast enough, yet left a lingering sign of the stink that had been around for so long. Well, even the final turd will go down with the 2nd or 3rd flush. And then you can well and truly take a brush to the bowl and a warm wipe to the arse.

Also looking forward to the Toontastic welcome for all the new fans that will be coming in

Slightly annoying that Bruce's departure will be painted as being due to the takeover. He's certainly gone for that with his comments, and the media will go with it. By all rights he should be sacked for the horrendous results and performances alone that he's gotten.

So strange the words coming out of the 'club' now. Ambition, trophies, investment? What the fook are those things? Even the official Twitter handle seems to have gotten a rocket up its arse.

This cannot be real. Oh the fat man has goneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Pitch invasion at SJP apparently

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I know they are right, but at this stage, a big to Amnesty International as well. Where does all this reform talk go when there is no takeover or NUFC are not involved ffs? There has to be equity.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Not start 7 defense minded outfield players perhaps? There is a natural tendency to defend leads in every team, but keeping possession and having a more fluid midfield can help with that. Chielini was quite literally making runs down the left flank ffs because there was nothing to worry him at the other end.

Most neutrals like to be entertained. The moment I saw England's formation yesterday I wanted Italy to win. It was entirely predictable as well. I know people have a bunch of other silly reasons as well though

Was brilliant to see. And very much deserved. What a shithouse of a final though Chielini's tackle x 90 minutes

Tough luck lads, getting that close after all this time. You have to give credit to Southgate and the team for getting nearly there, but I completely agree with those saying there has to be a change in mentality and tactics to get the maximum potential from this squad. There are some clear differences in the England squad from some earlier ones. A more united, driven, passionate and down to earth bunch of lads. There are some similarities as well, and they mostly have to do with the mindset and tactics. A familiar cautious, safety first approach, players that seem to be playing with shackles at times. And that is down to Southgate of course. The danger is, because he now has gotten this close, he might think its worth sticking too again. It almost worked this time but.. Your traditional international powerhouses, Germany, Brazil, Italy, France etc. They have had some pretty spectacular failures in recent years haven't they? From not qualifying for major tournaments to embarrassing early exits and huge defeats. Yet they're back and winning something again within the next few years. Fear of failure doesn't stop them from backing their best players and taking a chance. England always seem to qualify, move past the group stages only to lose by the odd goal or on penalties. No spectacular failure, and no trophies. Always a restrained, shackled team that seems to be playing in 3rd gear. Southgate is not the man to change this. Playing at Wembley in a final, with your best squad in many years, and you choose to play 5 defenders and 2 defensive midfielders. Says it all really. Predictably someone like Chiesa was the most ambitious player on the pitch rather than Sterling or Grealish or Sancho. With this squad, there is a slight chance Southgate might deliver a Greece/Portugal style tournament victory in the next 3 years, and which England fan wouldn't take that. But there is a chance to build a truly great team with these players, a chance to rival the best for years to come.
