we live in a multi national world. Anthony Gordon was eligible to play for Scotland, but chose not to. Life is not the same as it was 100 years ago

Just makes a mockery of international football in my view ..

Remember about 20 years ago when the German squad had more Polish born players than German ?

Plus when the German starting eleven included the best three players - a front three of foreign born players ?

One of them was Lukas Podolski who was born and grew up in Poland, married a polish girl , brought their kids up all speaking Polish …. absolute bollox that he’s regarded as a German legend

The way things are going international football will be more or less the same as Champions League .

Sooo

Gareth revealing to the press that Ivan Toney was completely disgusted with him for bringing him on with seconds to go …

What does that say about Gareth ?

Interesting theory doing the rounds !

So maybe Spain are looking so amazing as they have been playing their system for decades whilst all the other teams are still learning how to play like Spain/ ManC/ Pep
??

The Spurs one is a bit silly too.

Flamin Karen Carney saying to her fellow pundit ( someone who’s actually played at the top level ) .. “ see , I disagree with you on that - I think Austria expected to finish top of the group “

That’s the second time in a few days she’s openly said she disagrees with someone on the panel ..

Crazy thing is the guys daren’t say anything to female pundits as they’d get slaughtered on social media !!

This is after she copped out of analysing tonight’s two teams … when it came to her turn to enlighten us she came up with..

“ I think this will be the best match of the round “ before saying “ oh happy birthday, Laura “

I will never accept these women pundits spouting and criticising the players because they all played at a ridiculously low level compared to to men’s football


Even the women’s England team today is only playing at non-league levels nevermind the women’s league teams .

Can you even imagine what level of play Karen Carney was playing at years ago ?

There’s something odd going on ..

14 minutes in and both commentators have name dropped Karen Carney for something she’d said pre match ..

This sounds like they either want to be seen complimenting her OR they’ve actually been ‘encouraged’ to flatter her

Nice to see James Rodríguez playing extremely well against Brazil ..

I was gutted that his time over here was cut so short.. for a while he was unplayable with Everton. Current playing with Sau Paulo



Odd that he struggled with the physical side of the Premier League yet he’s thriving in the brutal Brazilian league

Bloody hell

I was so looking forward to the Spain v Germany match on Friday but they just confirmed it will be an all English ref / assistant refs / VAR team officiating. !

They are bound to fuk things up as usual !!

Then we will probably get Karen ‘know it all’ Carney and Eni ‘clueless’ Aluko as the ‘expert’ pundits

Whoooooo !

My beloved Barcelona are in talks and are supposedly favourites to sign Nico Williams who is keen on the move to join many of his Spain teammates !

So it’s hopefully Raphinha OUT and Willaims in !
Sadly Felix looks to be going but it releases his massive wages

Interesting


I love TAA but he needs runners for his long passes so I’d replace him with Palmer
