Ipswich are losing though.

Only $99, not 99c each? What a deal, I must rush and buy some before Elon Musk the Saudis and Putin buy them all up. 🤣

Oh boy ... what could this mean? Only a few hours until we find out 🤣

I was saddened to read your post about the passing of your obviously dearly loved son Ricardo. One of the unbearable costs of life is life lost too soon, especially a son or daughter. As time starts to heal these wounds may his memory be a blessing to you and Mrs. Ricardo.

In other news how about them Eagles. Impressive.

His Microsoft tablet wasn’t working apparently, I definitely saw him throw it to the ground. 🤣

Let’s go simpler, does anybody like Dean Smith?

As you are asking, do you like Dean Smith? -

No. I only comment on what I see on the pitch. -

The reason you’re getting no answers, it’s irrelevant. -

I wasn't criticizing the fact we didn't dominate for a full 90 minutes. I criticized the fact that until France scored England refused to aggressively attack. And I'm sure Southgate would have had them play that way all game but fortunately France scored early and when England ware now forced to play the way they should have from the very beginning look what happened. (And later they threw it all away, but that's life it happens) -

I don’t criticize Southgate for the last 70 min of this game, it was excellent (penalty miss aside) and I don’t criticize Smith for the first 5 min of the Swansea game. But as for the rest of both games two team either mentally underprepared or a shackled by their managers. -

Same at every level isn’t it, it’s not the chances you make, it’s the chances you take. -

Well done! See what happens when you stop p*ss*ng about and attack with aggression? We really can beat anyone, but we do have to try. -
Nobody is complaining about the result. But it’s a results and entertainment business. If you get results the lack of entertainment can be forgiven. And vice versa to some degree. But if you don’t entertain you’d better get results. This team remains weak in midfield, iffy at the back, unable to finish a decent percentage of its chances and too often drops off the pace if it goes ahead rather then pressing its advantage. So yeah, I’’m a Smith out vote. As Ricardo has observed they all leave eventually, if the crowd turns that’s it. Next couple of home games will determine Smith’s immediate fate.

Well of course we had to change after they scored - we are behind! The saving grace is they scored early so we have some time to react. -

Pretty much done a dusted isn’t it. One more dose of the Smith / Southgate too scared of your own shadow to aggressively attack the goal - hey we are outside their penalty box so let’s pass it back to our goalkeeper football. What exactly is the point? Norwich got away with it today because Swansea left their shooting boots at home, France didn’t. Ah well at least Argentina v France should be worth watching. -
Only one of those two statements is true. We won. We certainly didn't keep them at arm's length as Gunn was clearly our MoM. What's most frustrating is we have seen this same squad of players dominating teams, passing accurately at speed. Crisp, precise football that was a joy to watch. Now the majority can't put two passes together unless it's passing it back to the goalkeeper from a throw we had five yards from the opposition's goal line. And no, we are not defensively more robust. And no, we are not more clinical with the fewer chances we create. And yes, it's the most boring football we have seen since Chris Houghton's time as manager.
