City Tactics@city-tactics.bsky.social · 6d agoVery sad to hear Kevin Keegan has died. Ghosted his columns for ESPN and he was a lovely guy to work with.
Disgusting match, yes I will take another 30 minutes thanks
Rice and Saka can’t go through extra-time as well please don’t do this
How can Saka play this whole match and couldn’t get a minute against Argentina 😅 I’m even more angry now
10 goals at a World Cup, used to feel almost impossible you’d see that. Layering on more matches has obv changed that dynamic, but incredible feat still
Classic England, go 4-0 up against a good side and let them right back in it. How many times
Anthony Barry couldn’t let this World Cup go without one more star cameo
Saka doesn’t even come on against Argentina and now starts this pointless match. Make it make sense
Exclusive: Argentina stunned by England's tactics, esp refusal to use more pace They'd prepared at HT for Saka/Madueke coming on On realising Tuchel wasn't doing this, they went even more attacking, Lauturo on for Tagliafico Huge topic in dressing room www.independent.co.uk/sport/footba...
Argentina players privately stunned by Thomas Tuchel’s defensive approach
Exclusive: Argentina were preparing for Tuchel to bring on attacking options in Bukayo Saka or Noni Madueke, only to realise England were inviting pressure

One of the most memorable podcast episodes I ever listened to was @secondcaptains.bsky.social after we lost to Iceland 10 years ago. Extremely similar vibes today.
Giving *checks notes* the most accomplished technical attacker of all of history as much time as he wanted for recycled attack after recycled attack was a bad idea?
Michael Caley@michaelcaley.bsky.social · 3w agoI have never seen a more perfect example of How Not To Defend A Lead
Can’t actually get over how bad that was from Tuchel, given everything it’s one of the worst mistakes in a long list of them for England down the years
How are we ending up hitting it long to Dan Burn for Ivan Toney to pick up the second ball. After everything. Huge system failure
World Cup semi-final with this expansively talented group of players available to this country and we have big dan burn in the box 😭 massive failure
Tadej Pogacar is once again on a completely different planet from his rivals. The gap is a chasm to the extent rarely seen in elite sport. It’s hard to think of anything comparable.
