Are we still banging on about how much better England players are compared to Spain's? Seriously now, after what we have witnessed throughout the tournament? Granted, Gareth Southgate's tactics are cowardly, conservative, reactive, and an eyesore for any football fan, but the players need to take some responsibility for the absolute sh1t3 they have produced. I am sick of players like Declan Rice giving the ball away, incapable of playing accurate passes. Zubimendi who came on for Rodri is a better player and above all a better passer than England's top midfielder, not to mention Fabián or Rodri. These guys would not know this because they obviously never watch Real Sociedad, who are a wonderful team. Most games are won in the centre of the park, and England's midfield is average at best. You cannot take control of a game against decent oposition if your midfielders are incapable of putting 3 passes together under pressure. You don't play like Spain if you don't have wonderful footballers who are great on the ball, you just cannot, irrespective of tactics.

I think the biggest problem for England is the fact that under Gary Southgate they have been "lucky" with their draws. A lucky draw means that one doesn't have to perform and adapt to difficult situations. Coaches don't have to be creative and find new solutions to problems, players may get complacent, and your weaknesses are hidden. Southgate has an added problem which is his loyalty to "core" players who under perform. One gets a chance to choose the best players in the best league in the world and yet, Southgate, can't pick the best ones. A national team coach shouldn't be a player's friend, he needs to be rough and demanding.

Look at Rice, Walker, Trippier, Stones, and even Bellingham. They get nervous and look out of options. Besides, many of their stars lack discipline and like to drink and party and therefore they are never in good shape at the end of the season when major tournaments are played. 2.

@@fletcherchristian6411 , there’s a raging debate at the moment in France about the country football philosophy. The current philosophy was born in 1995, when the French FA decided to rebuild the national team around a new generation of players from the best academies. A new coach came in, the brilliant Aimé Jacquet. He cleaned the house. He decided to no longer select players based on their brilliance alone, but mainly on a combination of absolute discipline and insane talent. The arms race started in France. Out with Cantona, Ginola who were loose cannons who couldn’t follow instructions; in were a young generation of insanely talented young players such as Zidane, Viera, Henry, Trezeguet, Pires, Thurman, Lizarazu, Desailly etc. This team became quickly the best in the world, winning WC98, Euro2000, and losing in the final of WC2006!on penalties. The French football academies focus on producing players who are independent and don’t rely on a system. This is why the French players are so successful. They can play anywhere anytime and be good. The problem is that in modern football, the national teams do not train anymore because the the seasons are too busy and France has problems having a cohesive team. My wish is that Deschamps, who is an amazing leader of men, would resign and that Zidane would take over now. If this happens, France wins the next WC. Zidane has been waiting to take over but Deschamps won’t resign because he doesn’t want Zidane him after a failures. Remember, Deschamps was Zidane’s captain in the national team and at Juve. They have a rivalry going.

That Spain jersey is looking great on Jules

[@PetervanMeter]

Rodri wasn't even the best player at Spain

[@dendemano]

Well done to Spain, they are deserved winners. I agree with Jul. Southsimp is tactically inept. I cannot believe that from a squad, which has a plethora of talent and youth, we decided to play someone who is a right back for his club, but starts in midfield. A natural left footed winger who can take on his man and deliver quality passes and crosses, without having to check onto his right before delivering a ball is given a 4 minute cameo role. Palmer, the most influential player of the tournament for England is never given an opportunity to start. The best no 10 in the Premiership has been used on the left. The obvious sight of an out of form and injured “Harry Kane” starting every game, when both reserve strikers were making an immediate impact and gave the opposition defence new problems to deal with. Clueless. I won’t watch England play if he is the manager. It’s simply too frustrating.

[@qazwsxedc964]

The ball retention problem with Trent was worse when Declan Rice played with Mainoo...concentrate on watching the match or rewatch it in slow motion please.

dani carvajal for ballon d'or

[@stephenmcculloch7192]

Remember all these world class players in the ENGLAND squad r world class according 2 the English media, the premier league is the best league but it's the foreigners in it that make it good, at the end of the final Bellingham boots the water bottle carriers on the way down the tunnel

[@tsimoi273]

The truth about Bellingham's character is coming out little by little. When Dortmund told the world about him, they were seen as sore losers.

[@LATERZA00]

The "BIG CLUB - GREAT PLAYER FOR NATIONAL TEAM" Logic is broken. Spain proved it.

[@jal051]

Which is astonishing because for so many years in Spain we were slave to having the national team being all Real Madrid players. Back then when only 2 foreigners were allowed in the leagues, of course. Once they were allowed Real Madrid stopped having national players.

[@emojiman5741]

These are the same people who were saying “Who will score the goals for Spain? Morata?” Now they have 🥚 🍳 on their faces 😆

[@McLarry88]

In the 2012 Euro Cup, Spain played with 6 midfielders, Fábregas played as a false 9, and they beat Italy 4-0

[@solangeknight]

15 goals 4 conceded and 1 was a own goal

[@EastBayMB]

ESPN also blaming everyone else besides Colombians who stampeded the gate and took it over.

[@captainsmoke1612]

Juls getting more annoyed of Gab by the day.

[@cristoferpr7]

Imagine what someone like ralph ragnick could do with this england squad.

[@tiyaningwenya7664]

These clowns aren't gonna talk about the actual winners at all

[@solangeknight]

They both predicted Thursday Spain to loose and England to win they mad Spain won cause Spain beat Italy and knocked out France so they barely talk about them as if the euro champs don't matter

[@Sat-Man-Alpha]

The biggest failure of England was all the media hype about the team made by Murdoch press - everybody was hating England. The second one have been impotent tactics of the manager and the third was the over 😂estimated English players - playing in the Premier League made them not automatically champions. No Team no championship!😂😂😂😂

[@TerahAsh]

Nice kit Jules.

[@CardinalBlack36]

For England to not win ONE Euro Championship in their history is an indictment on the nation. Their fans and media think they are better than they are and the whole nation lacks a winning mentality. If Southgate had the best tactics, they'd still fail because they'd tighten up and lose it mentally.

[@zawarahmed114]

How about the debate between Spanish football and English football. Most of the players in Spain play in Spain and English players play in England. Spain team winning champions league more often then all combine top 4 of English football

[@clarencedsouza854]

Nobody's talking about Le Normande, I think he's a superstar.

[@mariops289]

Sore losers. Mostly talking about England problems rather than how good Spain was through the tournament, really disrespectful. And to top it up, after winning the Euro in such a manner, after name so much young talent coming up... Is Spain favourite ahead of France in the next tournament? "I would not go that far" ?! 🤣 And then close it with "Spain has some question marks for the future" 😂 This was actually funny to watch tbf. This guys made them self look ridiculous here. (Carvajal Crying meme)

[@mmurfur]

as others in the comments note, let's hear more about the victors, analysis of spanish players, tactics etc. and this is coming from a person from the u.s.

[@solangeknight]

They mad Spain win

[@godsnaturaluniversallaws8227]

The Amount of Big Teams Spain Beat it was Obvious who was going to Win

[@ViraDrama]

I don’t think Gab ever played football. He doesn’t understand football. On the other hand, Juls is a very good footballer. I saw the clip that he played, very quick.

[@fernandovalderramadelatorr9054]

England had an incredible squad and a terrible coach. Spain had a good squad and a truly magnificent coach. Spain didn't dominate the tournament, they played beautifully and they struggled against the last three teams. As someone from Spain, I honestly thought Germany was going to put a stop to Spain's run, not because they were a better team but because they were the hosts. But honestly it's quite obvious these pundits don't watch la Liga...

[@veeforvendetta4126]

Way more superior teams than England have failed on the highest stage, yet this absolute exceptionalism/entitlement coming from fans, press, and commentators, thinking they have a right to win is disgusting.

[@humptydumpty20]

You summed this up beautifully ❤ Yet the English media and England fans still don't understand why non-England fans dislike their national team so much.

[@SerGSays]

Madrid has won champions league the way England made it to the finals but they praise Madrid when that happens.... I'd love to hear someone say that about Madrid on ESPN

[@DanielIbanez]

All the talk here and in Extratime was about England. Spain was pure class

[@coolsergio72]

Against Spain, Foden was not at left, and Foden was not in the pitch when Watkins and Palmer came in.

[@voney_m]

England IS in a Bubble 😂 olimpics Squad Badjetic BryanZaragoza Brian Gil Omorodion Huijsen Veiga NicoGonzález Mosquera Cubarsí Moleiro Barrios Riquelme Fermín...and Dont forget Gavi &Baldé

[@rdg9768]

Future top centerbacks for spain: Cubarsí, Huijsen, mosquera, and yarek in that order of quality for me.... Cubarsí probably right now is the most promising cebterback in the world. Amazing that kid... LB and RB for the future: Balde, miguel gutierrez, Fran García, Rafa obrador, pedro porro, Fortea etc... TOP MIDFIELDER IN FUTURE SPAIN TOP GENERATION IS COMING: Bajcetic, Paulo iago (the best talent of spain with lamine yamal too, search videos in youtube of this kid, 16 years old in madrid academy... crazy talent, reminds me of ozil) Pedri, Gavi, Baena, Moleiro, Pablo Torre, Pablo Barrios marc casadó, Fermín Lopez, Pedro fernandez.. etc... Attack for the next gen of spain: Enzo Alves, Lamine yamal, Nico williams, Yeremi Pino, Bryan Zaragoza etc... Honestly, spain have a super team for the next 15 years... crazy....

[@voney_m]

@@rdg9768 Cubarsí IS not the BEST. Huijsen Rafa Marín. Any way Next IS Pau Torres.vivian and zubiria

[@benjaminarends8964]

How Di Maria played in that world cup final changed my opinion of him forever

[@mullen25]

england can beat the medium to lower teams but to beat the great european sides they need a more forward thinking manager. they have arguably the best players so what's missing.

[@totalbodyperformancefitnes4813]

That's the problem. They don't have the best players. It's time to stop lying to yourself.

[@paulalger10]

@@totalbodyperformancefitnes4813 the English media has convinced everyone that they have the best players when they dont

[@jamal1079]

so the pod will be uploaded to KZbin now?

[@mingulay29]

After watching a number of videos on yesterday's events Bellingham's attitude is concerning considering his poor performances. I see a poor season at Real up ahead.

[@Rootcauz]

Gab calling out the French in wars cracked me up. 😂

[@nicholasalonso45]

Why aren’t you talking about Spain winning a 4th euro which is a record! Both of you guys are somewhat hatter… the English this and that… but … they lost to Spain 🇪🇸 which are the biggest winners up till now.

[@solangeknight]

True they Mad Spain won 😂 they prefer talk about the losers 😅

[@Zungentruppen]

England got to the finals that’s all that matters, winning isn’t important there’s always next year, they showed heart and fighting spirit.

[@asamanthinketh1937]

As a big football nation (what england claims to be), you have to win a big tournament every now and then. Smaller nations can say going to a final or semi final would be a success

[@spencerchapmanbarra7888]

Winning isn't important? Tell that to every engkand fan! Sad that it's all unrealized potential!

[@chisomvictorukaegbu1596]

This is the best England can ever be in football. ACCEPT it and move on..They are the Tottenham of International Football

[@moerocco775]

How do you guys both get swept up in the English hype? Spain are a better side and England can't hang with them technically. As bad as Southgate is, this an old story, existing long before Gareth Southgate. Some things never change.

[@diederikjournee5580]

From the Netherlands: this is the best analysis I have seen. Thanks alot for that!

[@zorzoridesagain]

Am I the only one who thinks Juls looked a lot happier in Berlin?

[@willywonker2895]

so they just not gonna talk abt kyle walker and phil foden?
