In that case I take it all back, he's actually brilliant... fuck, I can't lie that big. Ten Hag? He's being that nice to him that he took him out the team even after leaving him captain, then stripped him of the captaincy this season, wanted to sell him, then threw the gobshite under a bus and made out like Maguire was leaving because he didn't have the balls to stay and fight for his place, so he then decided he would stay after all and then Ten Hag still doesn't play him.

Cornish Steve Posted October 17, 2023 Report Share Posted October 17, 2023 Against Italy, Southgate has started Kalvin Phillips, a player who hasn't played a regular league game for the longest time, when there are many more deserving starters. He seems to be a stubborn manager with definite favourites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted October 17, 2023 Report Share Posted October 17, 2023 Phillips looks off the pace and that’s why he picked up an early booking and should’ve got a second yellow. Absolutely nuts to play him in the competitive game and not the friendly instead. Hafnia and Matt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely nuts to play him in the competitive game and not the friendly instead. Southgate is a bellend. He’s literally got a cheat code with some of those players at his disposal. Bellingham could boss the midfield vs any team in the world, Kane just seems to get better and better. Pep has turned foden and grealish into a pair of shrewd hard working talents. yet Southgate always seems to make things harder than they should be. We should have won euros, we should have beaten France. I fear that under Southgate we will end up empty handed with arguably the most technically and mentally capable squad of players in my lifetime Matt, MikeO and Romey 1878 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought for a minute Jordan Henderson was a multi millionaire footballer who despite being mega rich, virtue signalled his way into selling the lgbtq community out for a tidy retirement package to add to his already mega tidy wealth. it seems Jordan isn’t that….he deserves us to stand outside banging pans and stuff Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StatesideToffee14 Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 Saw a story that there has been an outcry (mostly among politicians it seems) about how the St. George's Cross appears on the England kit for the Euros.

Well.... if you object to it then you are a racist, brexit gammon who has nothing better to do than to get offended by the St George's flag being messed with. It's usually people with Ukraine, EU flags on their bios who make such statements. we live in a strange world where sensitivity to peoples feelings and beliefs only matter for the minority. my thoughts are - flags are important to many people. Servicemen and women hold flags in the highest regard and when they are buried they receive a flag on their coffin. Leave it alone. Me personally? I'm not concerned but on behalf of people who are - yes. The same way that whilst I'm not gay or black - I will stand up for people who are disrespected.

Ive voted labour in every single election, i do work for diversity as part of my role and whilst I'm not getting in to the bollocks of seeing where I am on the political spectrum I personally think that messing about with symbols of significance is out of order. Why is it people need to try and bracket people??? Is it not ok to get annoyed that virtue signalling is messing about with traditionally respected icons?

Firstly I am not part of any right movement and do not hold any right beliefs. The flag of St George is what distinguishes us from the rest of the Union and should remain untouched in its current form, it holds so much for so many people. Do you think the Scots would be happy if their flag was put on their shirts with a pink and red cross or the Welsh dragon was violet, no they wouldn’t they would be up in arms, and I wouldn’t call the Scots or the Welsh part of the right.
