Quick, someone 'shop Hodgson's head onto Cersei's walk of shame.

Umbro know they're a division of Nike right?

But they aren't.

My problem is that the whole "players we have not used since" implies that there is this stellar English team that Hodgson just holds back because he's a moron.

There might actually have been one, though. I mean Kane was absolutely fantastic in the League this season; the disparity between that and this is striking.

Not sure for whom I'm rooting if it comes to a Iceland v Germany match.

I'm riding the Iceland train all the way to the finals

Spoiler

(where they'll lose against a pitiful Portugal)

Maybe not 'stellar' but Hodgson was almost definitely holding us back. If Vardy can't get a start after scoring 24 goals and winning a title, there's something seriously wrong.

 

[Jisgsaw]

Germany-Italy is going to be amazing. Of course I'm rooting for Germany but it's probably the best match of the tournament.

Well, they're by far the two best team from what we've seen up till now.
Hope Germany will finally brake the curse.

Nike sold them 3 years ago.

Ian Wright comparing England to the MonSTARS in Space Jam stealing their talent.

What talent, Ian?!

I need a video or something of this

Good old England, you never fail to fail miserably. I'm totally rooting for Iceland to go all the way now!

Damn you english fans. Stop being such happy losers. You're making me almost feel bad for you.

Sometimes players just don't deliver for the national team. Not saying England is bad, there is talent, but I fear fans have deluded themselves a bit too much into how good the squad actually is. See e.g. De Gea.

He's your Erich Ribbeck. Okay team, but it never worked.

 

[Pacbois]

The guy who scored the goal that kicked out England of the euro is playing at FC Nantes.

Take that Premier League.

Hope Mourinho was paying attention.

England's manager was paid £3.5 million a year.
Iceland's manager is a part-time dentist.

Is this true? lol

I'm not saying they were favourites or anything; but I firmly believe that this was on paper a mostly strong team (barring Hart and Sterling) that Hodgson squandered.

Rooney has been in the squad for years...

Is this true? lol

Assistant coach yes...

The coach was the Sweedish coach who's never lost to England as a manager...

Yeah it's about time, lol. I hope Löw doesn't change tactics like 2012 against Italy. We need the same team that played against Slovakia

18 year old was our best player despite being on for 5 minutes and garbage like Sterling starting ahead of him. woy??????

I was watching the game with my old man and the exact thing I said at 70 minutes is where is Rashford? Young player, little pressure/expectation, fast and skillful.... But no, Roy keeping that Kane/Sturridge combo going and Sterling for a good chunk.

 

[Omega Kirby]

I don't see how that changed my point that the womens team is better. Plus we did better than france in the last world cup

Roy has his favourites, like his hard-on for Jack Wilshire who brought fuck all to the table when he came on.

He was willing to screw the team over to play his people.

At least Roy wasn't ginger.

We won against them in the group stage and the bracket was trash. But anyway, not the thread to discuss that I guess.
