    If you win it doesnt matter.

    Was reading today about that negative England cricket team. Might fine team that wins a lot and is number one in 2 out of 3 formats.

    If you win then it'll be fine.

    Complete ******.. I can be entertained watching a movie, seeing a gig or taking my kids to the park

    Footballs about winning...losing is crap

    Anyone who says they would rather see their team play lovely exciting football and lose getting knocked out etc, rather than winning a comp/promotion are taking ****

    play to win whatever it takes

    Got to agree

    Winning every time. Winning and playing good football is the best of all, like 96-97, but I'd take just winning over playing well and losing any day of the week. For the partisan fan at any rate. I like good football on MOTD but when it comes to Barnsley and England just give me the win.

    you are right we will never know but there is no doubt we had the easier group I Think we would have struggled to get out of a group of Germany Portugal Denmark and us, and I would have expected the dutch to at least beat Sweden and Ukraine (but I expected them to beat Denmark) so who knows
    They definitelly havent been playing the total football of some of the great Dutch sides thats for sure

    But that's my point there playing *****, and will lose, people will get fed up and stop watching,

    They've won nothing yet, and they'll never win anything, lets see how many turn out for friendlys at wembley on a wednesday night to watch that *****,

    England won their group.

    Who would have believed that 2 weeks ago?

    Footballing teams to death? No.


    But playing with some guts,pride and passion. Can't buy that can you Arjen Robben?
