Why does Gary Lineker get so defensive when it comes to expectations about England. People realistically thought that England could win the World Cup in 2002, 2006 & 2010.
Why does Gary Lineker get so defensive when it comes to expectations about England...
Because the english NT is a bunch of overrated incompetent chokers.
The only reason they got to the semis last year is because they faced shit opponents. They lost twice to Belgium and Croatia also wiped the floor with them.
The England side in 2006 were capable of winning the WC. But so were 5 or 6 other teams.
This. Look at that squad and tell me they weren't world class. Shame we had a fucking Sw*de in charge who knew nothing about football.
No, it's true. Most people think that, especially over the last 10 years or so.
England look better now than they have done in years. Semifinals in the WC was a great result.
>Croatia also wiped the floor with them.
>2:1 in 120 mins with an injured Kane
Not really. England then beat Croatia in Nation's League. But you're right in your first sentence.
No-one had any expectations for England going in and they overachieved. Belgium are pretty good.
Shame we didn't have more black men in the team, you whitebois can't do anything.
>2006 World Cup
What a time to be alive.
Stop blaming Svennis
