The Football (Soccer) Thread - Season 2017/2018

lol head of FIFA is actually at the game I really wonder what went through his head when that was disallowed (funnily enough they haven’t showed him since then so maybe he left)

If this doesn’t make FIFA change people will riot and storm the headquarters

lol even Gerrard had a look of OH WTF

I don’t know why Heskey is on, how often does he score compared to Crouch

oh photoshop how much i love you.

Wow, just tuned into Germany vs England…and at 4-1 for Germany at the 85th minute…GGPO England. Germany is making me nervous, they seem to be doing really well so I’m wondering how my Brazilian boys are going to do against them if they play.

I can’t agree with you there his touch has been bad, his execution has been bad, he’s not pressing at all, he loses the ball and has a sulk.
There’s no national pride in the english players at all wasn’t it carrahger who said he prefers playing for liverpool? didn’t rooney say on blue peter that he’d rather win the champions leaugue than win the world cup? they’re a bunch of spoilt pampered cunts

David Beckham already calling to schedule his flight.

Never heard that but I wouldn’t put it past them, they’re all chavs love money more than the game.

Can’t believe I’m about to say this about a Chelsea player but Lampard deserves a goal damnit!

England going to walk off into the tunnel or will be classy and thank the fans that came all the way to see them…

Ninja edit, its over, too much media hype, John Terry’s fault, off to play xbox.

goddamn some of those german fans are FUCKIN FOINNNEEEE!!:pray::pray:

haha it’s the same old shit in the media we need a clear out what about the future blah blah blah same old same old.

nothing ever gets done

We just have to accept england are not a major footballing nation anymore, thanks to the FA and prem league.
It’s all well and good having a decent league but at the cost of the national team, never

Hella good game, glad the no-call did not influence the outcome. It may have killed England’s momentum a bit though.

Good Riddance England. For a team that expected to make it really far this time around, they didn’t show anything of substance. Hope Argentina wins now, cause they’ll give the Germans a run for their money, that’s for sure.

For once I agree with Alan Hanson, England were lucky it was only 4!

Luck, confidence and some actual good plays shut down a the underperforming english.

Feels awesome to win vs them or Holland, if your from Germany you may know what such a win means.

credit to the germans they deserved it.

we were a complete joke

English back four were appalling, passing was a mess.
Goals and bad decisions turn games and affect minds, so who knows how going in 2-2 may have changed things.

The Germans played really well regardless, hopefully they can keep it up all the way to the final.

Well, I thought we’d even win higher in the beginning. England only fought, no creativity for the most part or staying calm … It never seemed like the english initiated something with care and use a slower approach.

Ha game justified the hype I had. XD Whatever, next game it’ll all start at zero again and we have to use those chances better. It’s better then the Ghana game but still blown to many.

I would say that hopefully it means we’ll now stop playing people out of position to force a formation that isn’t working… But nothing will change.

Hahaha :smiley:

Now I won’t have to watch those shitty adverts overhyping that pub team.

Cue the media excuses!

At least now we can concentrate on Scotland’s progr… No, wait…

I dunno, it just seemed that for most of this World Cup England looked like they felt they were gonna win just by showing up. They just looked slow, fat, and uninterested for the majority of their games.

That and both of their keepers sucked. If they weren’t slapping a ball into their own net like a grizzly going salmon fishing, they were Matrix dodging balls hit directly at them.

^_-;

Loved the game, very strong display of the germans!
Sepp was at the stadium, maybe now he’ll consider putting cameras where needed.
