Dabbled at 18-1 for him to score when they put him in. Southgate, you bought some time.

going to play england, all the way. they've cost me a fortune this tournie, hoping that spain's young D have a stinker. england should be well-read, spain's wide FWDs do what most others do - cut inside and use their stronger off-foot to hit 25 yard bombs into the opposite top corner. give them the touch line, don't allow them to cut inside.

$400 on england to win in 90 mins (+$260) and another $400 on england to win the trophy (+$130).

rule britannia, britannia rules the waves.

Sorry dude.

Not for nothing, but Pickford is the most British looking person I’ve ever seen. He’s like William Regal but more so.

no worries...easy come, easy go. had other tournaments where we made some money.

played the final with my heart - disagreed with the praise lavished upon southgate, especially by donovan. even at 1-1, england were praying for penalties - passing the ball backwards and sideways, when the break was on. southgate installed some type of fear and inhibition in his players. england didn't deserve the final, let alone win it. i'd get rid of southgate in a heartbeat. he didn't learn his lesson against the italians.

I think they had what, two viable chance all game and they converted on one of them? Even in extra time they were playing the ball backwards.

They’re a frustrating watch.
