Mate weve had greek teams, a shite Bayern etc knocking the "big boys" out of Europe. It's the best in their own minds. Lucky for them they have a few tighter games then any of the other leagues. It's marketed well but in reality it's pretty poor for the money spent on it. Real still the kings of Europe and with mbappe now their don't see them giving that up Dan Deacon, The Godfather, ayrshireranger and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real still the kings of Europe and with mbappe now their don't see them giving that up 3 of the last 6 winners are English, 5 finals in 7 have had 1 or 2 English teams. It wasn’t too long ago Man City humiliated Real, and Bayern. I’d say that’s the same for every league though, players for the most part aren’t as good as 10/15/20+ year ago and prices all round for average players is nuts. And they most likely always will be, doesn’t make their league the best though. Done done disappearing act in the CL this season tbf, same again next.

McEwan's Lager 31,109 Posted Wednesday at 02:24 Share Posted Wednesday at 02:24 @Perth_Campsie_Ger yeah it was 98. Both Tunisia and South Korea sacked their managers after the first two group games. Perth_Campsie_Ger 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I genuinely couldn’t care either way if they win it but the arrogance and sheer right just turn up and win a tournament is frightening considering they’ve won fuck all in 50 odd years. Plus the bang on about the Premier League but they seem to forget it’s full of foreigners. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheKingObv 10,698 Posted Wednesday at 09:06 Share Posted Wednesday at 09:06 Can sit and debate which league is the most entertaining or which league has the best team. But overall the EPL is still definitely the strongest league at the moment. On a side note, how the fuck are England still favourites?

BlueSuedeSambas 54,869 Posted Wednesday at 09:10 Share Posted Wednesday at 09:10 The calls to sack Southgate and bring in Klopp are ridiculous tbh. The tactics and way he wants his sides to play takes months of work on the training ground to implement. He’s obviously a good man manager too, but I doubt he would come in and turn them into a side who can win it purely on “vibes” at this stage.

I think the England team has improved (length of tournament involvement) despite them having a shocking manager in Southgate. But klippity taking over would be a mistake.

Southgate is a honking manager but I doubt sacking him now would change fuck all. A lot of people, maybe English pundits and journalists forget that England have underwhelmed in every international tournament that’s not been played in England since 1990, so this is hardly new territory for them.

Southgate has the best tournament record of any England manager since Alf Ramsay and I don't think he has as many quality players at his disposal as managers like Sven did. John Terry, Ashley Cole, Rio Ferdinand, Sol Campbell, Paul Scholes, Wayne Rooney, Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard all walk into this England side, even a bit part England player like Michael Carrick would as well.

Just because those before have been shite doesn't mean he's all that. The levels of European sides have also vastly declined in that time too just like England. Look at Italy, Spain, France, Croatia and more. Those teams used to be littered with outstanding players. Southgate has a squad that should be comfortably beating the likes of Serbia, Denmark and Slovakia. Don't rate him at all and never have.

ForeverAndEver 72,487 Posted Wednesday at 10:11 Author Share Posted Wednesday at 10:11 Southgate’s done well. It’s funny, because all you hear is about how England fans/media/pundits all overhype their players, and how overrated their players are yet when they don’t win things Southgate’s ruining such a good team.

.Williamson. 84,351 Posted Wednesday at 10:25 Share Posted Wednesday at 10:25 Klopp won’t be taking over the job and they’ll not sack Southgate during this tournament. Be best getting that out of their heads now Dan Deacon 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
