  1. best team won, its been extremely painful watching eng this tournament relying on big moments from players rather than having a plan on how we play. If spain had lost it would of been an injustice as eng got lucky every game and had an easy draw to the final and still struggled. Hopefully we now get a manager who can implement a playing style that the players play week in and week out in the premier league as we have the players to win big competitions just need to exploit that. Fortunately for the us we already play like spain so i see us winning the premier league this year.
  2. thank god, I thought he'd been cougar'ed already
  3. Look the 1 surprising stat that no one mentioned, everyone has been banging on about lamine yamal being so young he was only 16 when this tournament started etc etc but i saw last night he's got a kid already Obvs not that young
  4. My prediction 2-0 england Kane and Bellingham (purely cos he will have 500 shots from halfway line onwards trying to show off to the spanish).
  5. Warranted criticism for his tournament performances is now classed as slander ?, we all want him to score or set someone up but when he's not doing the runs the team needs and starts playing as a 8 instead of the striker we need who are saka and foden et al meant to pass to in the box.

  7. Seems fair enough if the lad, he's been ripping through his age groups like his razors, fast and wanted what we had paid previous players. We said no so he moves to someone who will, fair play to him.
  8. judging by the face and he has a wing i can only assume we have enticed Eden Hazard out of retirement for 1 last dance.
  9. interesting but Koopmeiners is more of a defensive midfielder while o'reiley more forward thinking.
  10. interesting fact based explanation amigo, tell more
  11. Ok decided to be a bit more productive, went to the AZ forum for their feedback on suzuki yuki. They think we are getting a great deal for 6-7mil they think they should of got over 10 for him. "Statistical player of the month, statistically best back of the eredevise at the moment". Nearly 200 games in AZ 1st team. Including 50 European matches. Also as an aside, are AZ an underrated money making factory, some of the players from their recently: - koopmeiners (14mil forum favourite from a few years ago and proves we know midfielders) - Pavlidis (another forum shout out, he's just gone this month for 25mil to Benfica) - Jahanbaksh - brighton wasted 22mil on and currently without club - Janssen - spurs wasted 22mil on - Reijnders - AC Milan 19 mil
  12. hadn't seen it in a while and love this term (honorary mention for toe the line as well), for those far afield whose google translate has a shit fit this is what it means. "From the medieval belief that the liver was the seat of courage, and the pale color of the lily flower. A person who had no blood in their liver would have no courage and would thus be a coward." Yes i am bored
  13. Always think about where to wash your hands at a dutch festival
  14. Yukinari Sugawara continues his career at Southampton, so know Football International and Fabrizio Romano. The defender of AZ has been linked to the English doctoral candidate for some time, but after an agreement between the clubs, the transfer seems to be finally coming. Sugawara will travel to England on Wednesday to be inspected at his new club. Once he has passed it, the left back will also immediately sign a contract until mid-2028. An official announcement cannot be long in coming after that. https://www.fcupdate.nl/voetbalnieuws/2024/07/az-bereikt-akkoord-over-yukinari-sugawara-en-incasseert-miljoenenbedrag Expect the white smoke on his signing tomorrow i guess.
  15. I'd like a proper left winger, a proper left back and palmer somewhere.
  16. I got you fam Sugawara he's from Japan The land of sushi and the toyota van He's always smiling he's such a nice guy That's because he's our japanese samauri
  17. Tapping up
  18. Guys i need this win tonight, I live in the Netherlands. Will an England masterclass turn up and does southgate know he can pick other players and put on subs if we arent playing well before we concede or have 5mins left.
  19. guess he chooses ipswich as his mates are going there as well.
  20. Metz forum dont rate the source too much but they arent surprised.
  21. Everytime your avatar make's me laugh and think i should watch that one again
  22. nice looks right up my street. Sounds about as gory as Wolf Creek.
  23. no idea what this film is, please advise
  24. It's incredibly impressive to write off a young players ability to make the step up to the premier league before they have played 1min of a game, holgate was an established PL CB who couldn't play in the championship . As we see every season great coaching is more impactful that great players, Brentford have established themselves in the premier league buy young talent from championship and unfancied leagues.
