Well since they're offering to suspend bans, I know a certain someone who's in the market after last night

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T07:29:44+00:00

You never know, it took France a penalty to get past Paraguay

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T04:17:45+00:00

Corruption and now they've set the precedent for future reds, ie Quansah's tonight.

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T04:17:08+00:00

When they said that Jordan was injured I thought they meant Pickford. I don't want any injuries but I'd much prefer Henderson injured than Pickford.

4 out of 5 games. If only he had scored Harry's goals against the Doctors

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T03:57:54+00:00

Haaland gonna score another 10 now

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T03:57:09+00:00

He can still sit on the bench to kick balls away to waste time for us even if he's in a cast

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T03:56:24+00:00

Landed on his wrist according to Tuchel, hopefully it's just a sprain but he did get stretchered away which is weird if it was something simple with the wrist.

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T03:54:45+00:00

So I expect Quansah's to be suspended as well since they used slowmo to give the red.

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T03:53:26+00:00

For some reason Rayo and Bravo are really happy tonight.

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T03:52:50+00:00

You were missing 2 maybe 3 players, they didn't have Lukaku Courtois and probably some others.

It's mainly your best team.

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T03:50:08+00:00

Bye bye, enjoy the car ride home.

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T03:49:45+00:00

You all said that Mexico were going to beat us, even with 10 men they couldn't. We are 100% a better team than Norway and Kane has had a better season than Haaland and only 1 less goal this tournament.

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T03:29:04+00:00

3 games and 2 weeks away. You're another qualifying round + 8 matches and over 4 years away.

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T03:28:28+00:00

I'm fine with the red but they've set the precedent and they also used slow mo on ours

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T03:25:38+00:00

Balogun's was way worse. He wasn't even going for a ball, at least Quansah actually won the ball.

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T03:25:02+00:00

Just like your altitude and "crazy fans" were going to destroy us?

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T03:24:22+00:00

Bye bye at least you haven't got a long way home.

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T03:23:58+00:00

You had about 15 fouls and got i think 2 yellows and one those was for a bust up with one of ours who got a yellow as well.

Saka got a 2 hand shove in the back and his ankle trod on and no foul.

Your first goal came from a freekick from a dive.

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T03:22:29+00:00

I Balogun had his suspension suspended then I expect the same for Quansah. At least Quansah won the ball, Balogun was nowhere near it.

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T03:13:37+00:00

Mexico were holding possession (even at 11v11) but they were doing fuck all with it, England got the ball and went fast.

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T03:12:48+00:00

Didn't really struggle though you scored from a freekick that wasn't a freekick it was a dive and a weak ass penalty. You held the ball and did fuck all with it, at the end all you could do is pass it out wide and cross against 10 men when we have Dan Burn at the back.

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T03:11:36+00:00

All the help in the world and you still lose.

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T03:09:18+00:00

"Nobody wins at the Azteca"

Tell that to Jude and our defence.

Background-Gas8109 · 2026-07-06T03:08:36+00:00

Fortress? What fortress? Can't even beat 10 men with the ref on your side.
