Good to see Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink celebrating when Watkins scored, I'm sure that'll go down well in Holland

To clarify, I watch that programme with my mum as she is having her lunch.
Mate, I watch it when I am doing the ironing !

Koeman weirdly magnanimous and accurate in his assessment.

England have a 100% record of making finals under Sir Keir Starmer.

We also have a 100% spot kick record under SKS.

Seem to remember Kane missing one in a Quarter final under Rishi

Spain are good and will be favourites, but an average France side also showed they are very vulnerable in transitions and from set pieces.

Might actually help England psychologically to be 2nd favourites in the final, and not have the pressure to dominate the ball and the game.

Nothings impossible in football.

Just nice to have a good feeling about the country for once.

We’ve not had it for a long time.

New government, England in a final abroad for the first time .

It’s a nice feeling.

Maybe in 30 years Kane will have a laugh and a joke with some Dutch journalists whilst admitting it was never a penalty in a million years and he completely bought it

Anyway Southgate a firm believer in "I'd rather be lucky than good”

Yeah that penalty would have made Graham Taylor a happy man, particularly as it fucked Koeman.

If that challenge happened in the centre circle, high boot, studs up, does the ref give a free kick for it?

If I put my foot up and you kick it, it’s not your free kick 🤷‍♂️

I've seen fouls given in this tournament for studs up that didn't connect with the player
