Let's all Laugh at England

Finally found out.

England are average.

Even when England were ‘comfortable’ against Sweden the Swedes could’ve scored 2 or 3. Columbia took them all the way without Rodrigues.

Croatia 100% deserved that. England had one shot on target in the whole match.

United 'fans' laughing at England falling short at the semi final, very strange

How is it strange? How can people not understand that supporting United doesn't mean you have to support England. I support Federer doesn't mean I support Switzerland. I support Vettel doesn't mean I support Germany. I like android doesn't mean I support America.

There isn't much to laugh to be fair. It would have been hilarious if they lost against Colombia in pens (like we all expected and they almost did), that would have been so hilarious. But losing against a better team, in semi finals, a stage that I think pretty much every Englishman would have been happy to before the World Cup started, is nothing to be shamed. This is hardly Iceland, or finishing bottom like in last world cup.

A very good job from Gareth Southgate, for the first time in a very long time, England is again respected. The team is good and young, it could get better with some improvements (a better midfield, Harry Kane to realize that he is a great striker and a shit midfielder), they can be one of the top favorites for the next Euros.

This post will get lost in this awful thread.
 
Football has come home for me. We have produced meaningful football and reached a semi-final at a tournament with a very average team. Can't ask for more.

Dolazi kući,

Dolazi kući, dolazi ...

Nogomet dolazi kući

Dolazi kući,

Dolazi kući, dolazi

Nogomet dolazi kući

Suze za junake odjevene u sivi

Nema planova za zadnji dan

Ostanite u krevetu, drift daleko

Moglo je biti sve

Pjesme u ulici

Bilo je skoro dovršeno
^ ^ Bilo je gotovo tako slatko

A sada pjevam

tri lava na košulji

Jules Rimet i dalje blista

Nema više godina ranjavanja

Nema više potrebe za sanjanjem

Razgovarajte o nogometu koji dolazi kući

a zatim jednu noć u Rimu ^
^ Bili smo jaki, mi smo rasli ^
^ Sada sam vidi Ince spreman za rat

Gazza je dobar kao prije ^
^ Shearer siguran za bodovanje

I Psycho screaming

Tri lava na majici

Jules Rimet još uvijek blistav

30 godina ranjavanja

Nikada me nije prestala sanjati ^ ^ ^ ^ Znam da je tada bio ^ ^ ^ ^ Ali mogu se ponoviti

Dolazi kući,

I'd love to post the pop-corn gif but it's not really appropriate.

You beat whatever was put in front of you, including hard to beat teams like Colombia and Sweden. However, Southgate lost this game when Croatia controlled the midfield and he did nothing about it from the second half all the way to the end of extra time.

This all day long. Same old England shit of refusing to take of the 'stars' and changing the system when it matters. Still, I'd have taken the semis before the tourny every single time.

Because there's too many of the feckers on here.
 
I mean they've lost in the semi finals in a World Cup, I don't root for England ever but hardly anything to be laughed upon at to be honest.

This is all true but much less fun than posting smiley faces.
 
Expected. Easy route has fooled everyone but the fact is that Southgate barely improved a team. They have been hanging on set pieces and luck, attacking play generally is absolutely shocking with 0 ideas. I am not impressed at all, of course it's a bit better compared to Hodgson era but that's not saying much.
 
great tournament from Southgate and the lads, easily surpassed everyone's expectations. Kane will regret not squaring that chance to Sterling, with an open goal from 5 yards Sterling's 50/50 to score there.

:lol: well duh, it's an Irish site!
 
Lost to the first real quality side they came against and their golden boy went missing! Just way to end their easy peasy campaign!
 
The "lets all laugh at England" thread changed to "I want to justify supporting United" thread in one post, you're all so precious ;)
 
Semi finals are no laughing matter. England still had a very good world cup.
 
Hard to laugh at, such a likable team.

Well I guess they will come back stronger than ever. Well done England.

I mean, its also the first decent team they came up against since the Belgium game was turned into a reservefest.

And Croatia really werent that impressive. A gulf between them and France. I suspect Belgium are stronger too
