Not a chance. France are nowhere near as good as people make out. Spain on the other hand will smash us

France are massively overhyped. Said this at the beginning of the tournament. They rely massively on mbappe

What a talent

Even the Dutch fans have said their own midfield is poor

That was me. I meant central midfield players

More of an attacking midfielder

True but the Netherlands lack any world class midfielders. We should win that battle if we start rice and mainoo. Had de jong been available I would fear for our chances

What chance did he have to react when walker Lost his man. Blaming stones for that goal is ridiculous

Wright Philips was a player that played off the cuff. Gordon has far more to his game. I'm not disagreeing with u but we have players not in this squad that would walk into the golden generation squad

You underestimate Guehi. He's been brilliant for Palace the last couple of seasons

Stones was phenomenal in the champions league final. He's a world class defender

And kane would definitely be in alongside Rooney. Owen wasn't the same players after 04

Pickford is top class better than anything 20 years ago. Stones would definitely compare with Terry. Rice is what England lacked 20 years ago. Gerrard and lampard didn't work together. We had a world class 11 back then but shit substitutes

Far more depth. Outwith the starting 11 we had crap like vassell Lennon Milner to come off the bench. Now we have players like palmer Gordon Wharton Watkins etc to call on. The likes of sterling sancho would have walked into the 04/06 squad

More chance of getting Guadeloupe

He's a catalonian. I doubt he has much love for spain

Now I've sobered up. It was a much better performance. The good thing is we haven't reached our potential yet. Also England are getting good tournaments know how. We're reaching semi finals and finals regularly now. We are beginning to get that German/Italian mentality of winning ugly. We used to be a quarter final side. As for the Dutch we have better players than them and they look susceptible at the back. Mainoo and rice can definitely win the midfield battle. The player that worries me is denzel dumfries. He is a very good right back.

Possibly

Ffs why can't people enjoy the fact we're into another semi final. How we get there isn't important

I agree but Switzerland hardly tested us. But every time from fans it's the usual England have the easy side of the draw. We improved immeasurably from the Slovakia game.

You never say anything good about England

Bull. England dominated the majority of the game. Switzerland hardly had a shot in goal

It wasn't poor. We've improved greatly since the Slovakia game. The Netherlands look slow at the back. Saka could have a field day against their backline

I feel sorry for Southgate in a way. He's done an amazing job in so many aspects. It's just his in game management that leaves us frustrated. He deserves huge respect. I'm the first to criticise him. English football has improved hugely in the last 8 years. He had the bottle to drop under performing players. Bring in youth. No matter what happens Wednesday I'll have huge gratitude for him.
