This is just absolute horseshit. The group games were kind of stodgy but all three of England's knockout games have been entertaining.

The germany game was absolutely dire for the first 60-70 minutes. The ukraine and denmark games were pretty good. The group stage was torture.

i think we can all agree that pogba scoring a banger and then doing a little dance before giving away the ball in the 90th minute which directly led to letting a 3-1 lead slip was more entertaining than england and italy have been

Play tight, balanced, controlled football in an effort to win the tournament? Nah get Grealish, Saka, Sancho, Sterling, Bellingham, Kane, and DCL on all at the same time. What do you mean that'll make us lose terribly? That's fine, as long as it's spicy for the people who don't actually care, that's what really matters

I can't believe Southgate is getting a knighthood for playing the most boring football scientifically possible with a squad that has Foden, Sancho, Mount, Grealish, Sterling, Rashford and Saka. England have never been so stacked and so uninteresting to watch. Usually my 2nd team because of their hilarious knockout tragedies, but this time I sure hope It's Coming Rome

Me neither - though I'll say that it was pretty dodgy in the group stage - it does seem like the team is about to reach peak form just in time for the final which should worry the Romans somewhat.

The dark truth is that every single football fan is unbearable if their team wins a single game
