TFC: "ZOMG we should get JWP...he's worth 50M just for the set pieces. Who cares about his shitty MF play when he can bag shiny objects from FKs. It would be raining goals!!!!"

===================
They probably are English. Like the ones that hate Sterling, Saka, Rashford as well, for being the wrong colour of English.



Most foreign football fans don’t give a shit about England players any more than any others, it’s just the xenophobicy, hubristic, gammony, flag shagging twatty fans that they enjoy seeing fail, which serendipitously happens every tournament.
TBF I 'hate' him mostly because Deuterz Deuterz is likes him. Surely, you can see that's fair?
 
Twitter hates Kane, Foden, Bellingham, Saka, Palmer, Rice etc etc.

Loads of Anglophobias around, clearly. Yet usually they support an English team, the imbeciles.
I'm English and never understand this argument because surely you can see that Tottenham or Liverpool or Man United etc, and even the entire Premier League in general are separate cultural artefacts to the National Team? Like they all have foreign players, management, employees and the whole experience of going to a club game is completely different to going to an England game. I'm sure the reason they want the National Team to lose is because how strongly tied it is to the English nationalist identity, which does exist in aspects of the Premier League and other parts of English culture of course but not in such a "we are better than you" way which could be viewed as problematic to many people from countries affected by the Empire in the past.
 

  • Gibraltar, ranked 174 places below Wales, end nine-game losing streak.


Just goes to prove ; there really are no easy games in International football any longer.

The Gibraltar FA have probably already started the post-mortem .

( apologies CG ) .

Boos rang out at Wembley as England's grand send-off for the European Championship they hope to finally win ended with defeat by the same team who stunned them in 2016 - and the BBC pundits were also unimpressed

And when we beat Serbia 3-0 next weekend, these same people will no doubt be saying how fantastic everything is once again. At least for a game or two. Fickle as fuck.
 
Wales 0 Gibraltar 0
Wales 0 Slovakia 4

I think it''s time for Robert Page to go. Admittedly a ton of first choice players missing and Wales cannot afford to lose many players but still...

:ange-facepalm2:
Have to go through it with a rebuild. There were probably 8 starting players missing tonight, Page has to test what else he has available. It was good for 45 minutes against a decent team. Brennan Johnson was poor, if he isn't going to do anything to help defensively then he has to do a lot more than that going forward.
