    I'd not take Dembele off. He's been all over the pitch!

    Why do you think it's bad ?. I've heard a lot worse than this, whether it be on Itv or the Beeb.

    Anyway as for the game, it's fallen flat in this 2nd half hasn't it. And France are still just about in it!.

    If England have shown anything, it’s that they have stamina. Spain are proving they don’t..

    Mbappe has been useless. He's costing his manager the chance of doing the double double.

    Why do you think I keep having a go at him, for being what I think is (allegedly) over rated.
    It's not his fault though, it's the media and press and tv people who do it!.

    Enjoyed that. A lot.

    Still fancy England if we get through to play Spain. I know nobody else does, but I do, I don't mind standing alone.

    Mental that you're having a go at Mbappe but have been defending Ronaldo who was far more of a burden.

    I fancy us against anyone. The players are good enough to overcome the opposition and the tactics.

    Why can't we go back to just the commentator and get rid of the ex footballer giving his opinion. Jenas and shearer are poor.

    Do well to lose to Holland tomorrow as I think Spain would make a mockery of our team in the final.

    58 years ago the 1966 world cup had an ex footballer giving his opinion too.

    Just how far back do you want to go?

    Their last five games.....

    Sneaked past Italy by a goal.
    Sneaked past Albania by a goal.
    Beat the lowest ranked side left in the competition.
    Sneaked past Germany by a goal.
    Sneaked past France by a deflected goal.

    Really don't get the fuss with them. They bore viewers to tears with their keep ball that's worse than Man City and all their play acting. I can't wait to see if their 39 year old old man can cope with our young attacking players.

    Not that I think we will beat Holland. Even if we do Spain must be odds on to win not. They look unstoppable.

    It’s reassuring to see people still talk *****, even when it’s not Barnsley or England..:)

    Shearer is terrible when doing match commentary. So much to say that I have to turn the sound off.

    Look they've only sneaked 13 goals compared to our massive 5 so stop being mean to them

    Even if it might lead to a bit of a thrashing in the Final, against a good looking Spain team.
    I can't believe so called fans are saying they'd rather we lose in the Semis, because of this possibility!. :eek:
