Euro 24

[Whitesince63]

I’m still trying to work out how we can be so slow and boring with so many quick, skilful and exciting players on the field. If we just moved the ball quicker we’d surely win these games comfortably? I know it’s a system so many clubs are now adopting but this slow stuff is just so boring.

Southgate says we played well and caused them all sorts of problems.

We didn’t have a shot on target until around the 70th minute.

There’s a huge overreaction to that performance because a) we’re through, and b) the bar is so low due to previous performances.

The main thing is absolutely being through, and you can’t knock it, but let’s not pretend that we’re suddenly brilliant. It was just ever so slightly less shit than the previous 4 games. Let’s hope we’re less shit again in the semi and find a way to win that.

Hmm, good start for Turkey.

Yilmaz is an absolute wasp.

I remember Turkey being dark horses last tournament and absolutely flopping; not this time

Perhaps Kane could spend a bit of time watching the Yilmaz press

Got a soft spot for Turkey me I know its sacrilege to say. Was in their end at Dortmund against Georgia and it was fucking mental.

England v turkey in Dortmund a huge Turkish community would be mental

I must have been watching a different game. Thought it was a really good game and we edged it before the penalties

Bring on the Turks

Fair play to Arsenal that day, not long after the 2 Leeds guys got killed by the Turks.

[Adlington Trotter]

Hope the Dutch beat Turkey. Its time for our long overdue revenge on Koeman for 1993.

They don't look particularly strong at the back but that was against a very direct Turkey

Aye the final in Copenhagen. Fresh after Kevin Speight and Chris Loftus were killed.

It was far from just Arsenal over there. Then there was the Sunderland thing.

Just a matter of time before the times right and we cross paths again properly.
