England in the World Cup 2018

We more or less got to this stage by default, and by the time we arrived we were found wanting.

Throughout the tournament we lacked any real variation in our play and were entirely predictable because of it and the general media hyped us
right up which pissed me off no end.

This insistence about playing across the back done my dinger in and we were lucky not to concede stupid goals because of it. We could have easily gifted them 3 goals directly as a result of it. Even in the second half of extra time we kept sweeping the ball back instead of sticking it down their throats.

We should have and could have killed the game in the first half bit allowed them back into the game and by the time they had equalised we were completely bereft of any ideas.

Typical of England, we were bigged up contrary to our ability and achieved nowt but leaving  me fuming and as frustrated as fuck - once again.

Coming home my arse.

Your comments are fair enough but the team did do better than expected. Many teams under performed in the competition who on paper are better than us. We looked shell shocked after they equalised and in the end were beaten by the stronger team. Disappointing but not surprising. Now we can get back to worrying about NUFC
