Germany didn't look great but we by no means looked bad. Say what you like about England but we've not conceded a goal so far, finished top of our group and just beat Germany 2-0. What I'm saying is that Southgate's actually a genius, Kane is the finest striker ever to have lived, Harry Maguire's head is perfect and it's loving COOOOMING HOOOOOOOOME

E: I echo the above post

actually england would have won 6-0 if only they'd played keeganball

imagine just controlling a game and taking your chances instead of picking garth crooks' team of the week and all having a foot race into the opposition box

A manager taking his experience and failure from one tournament and applying it to the next one? Will never catch on.

I know English commentators are absolutely AWFUL at pronouncing foreign names, but how the gently caress is anyone pronouncing Gnabry 'GUH-nabry'??? Surely he knows it's not pronounced like that just from like... hearing his name? He's even making it harder to say. Is it a deliberate thing where they're told to pronounce it how the stupidest possible fan would or something? I always just assumed some of them were thick as gently caress but that's a step beyond.

i heard one of them say that before the tournament they were all briefed on how to pronounce names by representatives of each team, so lol

I think with Gnabry it's probably just that he played in England for quite a while and they all got used to saying his name that way and now it's weird for them to change it

I mean, yeah sure, but that was 70 loving dire minutes of poo poo, too. It wouldn't have harmed anything to have even Henderson instead of Rice for a little more forward adventure in midfield. Absolutely delighted we won, but there was a hole the size of Anglesey in the midfield creating a black hole where some creative talent should have been, with both sides.

They get pronunciation sheets supplied by each FA facilitated by UEFA, which is why Tyldsley, who has been commentating on Glenn Kamara all season, started to suddenly call him Glenn Camera. UEFA publish a simplified version of them on their website.

having looked it up it does seem like you're meant to pronounce the G in Gnabry so idk what the OP thinks it should sound like

Arsenal winger Serge Gnabry has told fans how to pronounce his tricky name.

A fan asked in a Q&A about his surname.

He answered: "In Germany it's GER-NAB-REE - you do pronounce the G!"

That's actually how they say it in Germany

I won’t pretend it wasn’t dull, but Germany have good ball-playing midfielders. If it seemed like they left a gaping hole in the middle it’s because Rice and Phillips were doing their job well.

If you accept that the best creative option England realistically have there is Jordan Henderson, then instead sending in two game-wreckers to just remove that area of the pitch for both teams is pretty tactically sound.

This reminds me of that american guy freaking out over how those dumb english fans people were pronouncing "jose" only to find out that it's pronounced differently in spanish and portuguese and they were correct.
