Pickford telling himself “no problem” then saving from one of the best penalty takers in the world in a cup final was ice cold tbf.

Do you think your security can keep you in purity, you will not shake us off above or below. Scottish friction, Scottish fiction

This gives some perspective on the scale of the violence associated with the final:
"England fans launched “random attacks on Italians” after the final of the Euro 2020 tournament, police have said.
Forces across the country are still collating figures on the number of incidents targeting supporters of Italy, who won the tournament on penalties.
More than 2,300 police incidents linked to the Euros have so far been recorded, surpassing the 2018 World Cup to make it the worst football tournament on record for crime.
They include stabbings, glassings, fights and assaults on police officers, with at least 622 people arrested so far in England and Wales.
Cheshire Constabulary chief constable Mark Roberts, who is the national lead for football policing, told The Independent: “We have seen random attacks on Italians ... Italians celebrating the win have been attacked"

I think the same can be said of England, to a lesser degree though. I thought the English team was one of the worst I've seen considering it was basically a home tournament for them.
A Bobby Robson England team would have won that tournament with a bit in hand imo.

You don't think England have an abundance of top quality players, playing in the highest leagues in Europe at the moment to choose from? Their squad is excellent at the moment, I don't think you can actually argue against that. All young players that have grown up with the aforementioned technology and have taken their country further than they've been since before the moon landings.
It's the classic 'back in my day' argument that just doesn't stand up to scrutiny.Last edited by mcohibs; 14-07-2021 at 09:32 AM.

I do like most of these England players bar Pickford and Maguire. Rashford in particular is a great guy and a national hero.

The only goal Pickford let in before the final was a free kick 5 foot away from his right hand post, most keepers would say they should save that.
He hardly had any saves to make during the whole competition, but he did make a great save in the lead up to the Italian goal.
Nowhere near keeper of the tournament in my opinion.

The guy is brilliant, his off camera rants are so spot on, funny yet politically on the button.

Any objective coverage of the problems in England risks their bid for the WC 2030.

Pickford had a decent tournament and made a few very good saves. He's a good shot stopper but a keeper you feel always has a mistake in him. Donnarumma was the keeper of the tournament for me. Interesting that the two keepers in the frame are the two finalists and the two best teams in the competition and as such might expect the two keepers concerned might have not that much to do?
