>I seriously can't gasp why every two years the English seriously think this time they will win a trophy no matter how shit their team is.

well if you look at past tournaments, in the qualifying and friendlies, it seems to follow the pattern that england start playing quite well, in the 2010 world cup and 2016 euros, they were the highest scoring team in the whole qualifying stages

then england will beat a team like germany or brazil in a friendly and then the hype starts building and everyone begins to forget about the disastrous previous tournament and embarrassing early exit

Then the same thing happens and england look like they can barely score a goal against some really shit team like slovakia

It's the just the same fucking shit everytime, it's actually laughable how much deja vu was in this year's euros with the england team

It seems like something finally broke in you guys, I don't get that much exposure to your media but what I'm seeing now looks way worse than how I remember the reaction to 2014 WC. You guys just kind of blocked that out and wrote it off as a fluke, but now you guys have accepted that something is fucked with your domestic leagues and how you grow talent.
>>
>>69048059
And the same thing will continue to happen. After this loss, the NT will score a lot in the WC qualifiers and the cycle will start again.

The English national team is literally stuck in a never ending loop of defeat,hype and defeat.

All champions need a little bit of luck to win it. Like it happened to you when Higuain and Messi choked their chances, Robben not cutting inside for the first time in his life against Spain or when Italy got gifted a penalty after being down to ten men against Australia

england is a good midtier team. LIke mexico, chile croatia sweden or portugal.
Good performance in qualifying stages and friendlies are a good show of that.
The problem is that your team starts believing it's one of the best and should win the championship. When they discover that they aren't that good they crumble.

Here even when we have great teams hyped internationally the approach to the tournament is always that they should try to go as far as possible because, obviously they desire to win the tournament, but there are many other great teamsand any match is a battle, even against weak teams because in football anything can happen.
I don't know how is it in england, but the impression I get is that the english team and press think they should win the tournament and anything else is beneath them and any team that's not among the best 4-5 are beneath england.

Me too. I was unironically rooting for them to do well this tournament.

Being an England fan is all of the disappointment and none of the heart
>>
I think the problem with English football team is the same as the American mass shooting problem

There's countries with a similar amount of guns, but the US always has more shootings. Compare that with how countries with similar talent pools, funding and facilities do much better than England

Everytime there's a fuckup there's an inquest but eventually everything stays the same pretty much

Both are doomed to repeat the cycle over and over because the cause, I think, is rooted deep inside the subconscious of those culpable and those who can change the cycle.

Basically they're both fucked

Thing is that there were no knockout games besides the final in the 1974 and 1978 WCs and in the 1982 there were only semis and final. It's not really legit way to judge cup performances. Might as well add second group stage victories.

Jesus and is that Germany number real?
>>
>>69050890
The hosts are almost guaranteed to go far, plus some countries simply host more often than others (ex. this is France's 5th tournament). Here are how many knockout victories you would add with home tournaments included:

Italy +8
France +8
England +4
Germany +3
Spain +2
Portugal +2
Sweden +2
>>
>>69051073
England didnt qualify for 74 or 78
>>
>>69051073
Yeah I was going to add 2nd group stage victories but then I was wondering what to do with the early Euro group stages? When it was only 4 or 8 teams those group stages are basically like the 2nd group stages in the World Cup, ie. made up of all very strong teams.

>>69051183
I see his point, the Dutch were at their best in the 70s with the 2nd group stage. Throw those in and they have 9 more victories.

With 2nd group stage /8-team Euro group stage:
Germany +10
Netherlands +9
Italy +6
France +5
Sweden +3
Poland +3
Denmark +3
Belgium +2
Spain +2
Soviet Union +2
Portugal +1
Czechoslovakia +1
England +1

poorly coached, with no plan or system


They were also very unlucky.

>'06 lose to Portugal AGAIN on penalties

Then, tragically Steve McClaren DIDNT pick Beckham in 2008 and England didnt even QUALIFY.
>>
>>69046125
don't see how you can blame Rooney for this one. They're down 2-1 and he's trying to make something happen while literally all of his team mates are static.
>>
>>69051385
wasn't roo sent off in 06? ronaldo dove or something
>>
>>69051385

I remember hearing all of England shit on Beckham for ruining your squad and slowing them down in 2006, but meanwhile wasn't he actually the only one keeping you afloat with a goal and an assist in a pair of 1-0 wins? Including your last knockout stage win right?
>>
>>69051376
But just imagine it though. After Ronaldo was butthurt that Iceland tied them and celebrated it. This time Iceland beats them. He would have to eat hist words which he won't do. He would probably cry on the pitch.

there is a thing called semi finals, thats when you are suppose to meet germany or italy

>>69051500
Shouldn't have chimped out, nor stepped on somebody's balls then.

They were unlucky as shit in 2002, where they lost to the best team of the tournament, and 2004, where they got refballed out of a goal, but 2006 was the beginning of >englel.

Portugal were missing three starters in that match because of the Battle of Nurnberg and the only one that tried and managed to do shit was Hargreaves.

I've been saying this for a long time. This is exactly why England is so shit and Germany so good. Off the ball movement.

The best teams are ALWAYS moving. When you watch Germany you see players constantly moving into channels, when you watch England they just stand around and wait for the ball to come to them.

Rooney was really good in 2010 for Man U though.
>>
>>69050355

There was nothing special about that team cause they never actually played as a team. It was just egos everywhere. Lampard and Gerrard were 20+ goal midfielders but when they played for England, they never had any chemistry cause they both never knew whether to attack or defend. Joe Cole was a good dribbler but that's where it stopped, all Beckham had were long passes and set pieces.

Only good thing about the team was the defense, especially the full-backs.
>>
England choking even carries over onto the women.

I can't stop laughing thinking about that last minute own goal in the women's footy. Combination of bad luck and English memery.

This webm sums up England. You can see he wants to shoot but he's trying to be too smart for his own good, so he fucks it up. 18 year old Rooney would have had a shot there because 18 year old Rooney was a good player.

I really think they can win, they have just beaten England , and thier confidence going into that was high. Thier confidence now will be sky high.

Yes france are better, but Iceland look fearless.

We can't hide from the fact that england were awful, but Iceland beating france would makes things slightly better.

We are still a shambles though, but imagine the lels at france

nah he doesn't want to shoot, he tried to dribble by faking the shot and then running with the ball.
>>
>let's put this striker as CM where he doesn't do shit but he is just lazy fuck so that position suits him
Kek fucking pathetic, whoever came up with that idea at Manure should probably off himself.. Rooney playing in midfield is like putting Ronaldo there. He is totally useless with his zero defending and short passes.

They are unbeaten, scored in every game and beat Austria and England.

It's not that other teams move more, I'm sure the statistics will show.
It's the lack of intelligent movement, they always look for players to "show effort" and so they get unintelligent players, moving forward first chance, trying the longer, faster pass more often and so on.

It was the same, maybe even worse, btw, with their "golden generation", Lampard and Gerrard were terrible midfielders, always needing the right support from their teams.
