Meanwhile in more football news... I see Pompey start the new season in the Championship away at Leeds on the opening day. Let's hope Leeds are still seething at missing out on promotion to Pompey's more illustrious & glamorous neighbours. |

You're right. I went off on a tantrum through misty, seething eyes this morning with it all. I see that Palace have put a £65M minimum price tag on Guehi. |

I'm still trying to process the "we're still experimenting" comment from Southgate after the Denmark game. Isn't that what the friendlies were for pre-tournament? But no, Southgate just went ahead in those and picked the same old boring faces and left all the real talent on the bench. And then there's the bizarre "we're missing Kalvin Phillips" comment. I mean... WTF?!?! |

Same here. One of my best mates is a big, lifelong Villa fan, so I've been following them closely this season. Been to a couple of their games with him and watched some of their live Sky games in the pub together or at home with a beer together. He's obviously chuffed to bits with the season just gone - and rightfully so. They've played some terrific football and have got a very attack-minded manager. Ollie Watkins has been superb this season for Villa. I'd put him alongside Kane every game - no question. He's got the pace that Kane no longer has & the lad is a smart cookie with a footballing brain who knows where the goal is. He'd work well alongside Kane and give the opposition, no matter who, something to worry about. Likewise, Idrissa Gueye has been superb for Villa this season. He's just quietly gone about his business and is a huge part of why & how Villa ended up in the champions League. He's probably been England's best, most consistent player so far this tournament. Funny then that the boring waistcoat w@nker is only playing him because he's been forced to. Gueye wouldn't have got a look-in had Harry McGuire been fit. That's a fact. Southgate is a dull, Mr Safe, inspirational manager who couldn't motivate anyone - let alone one of the best young England squads we've had in years. We're all waiting for 'that' game coming up where we'll snatch defeat from the jaws of victory and another tournament that we should have done so much better in slips by in bitter disappointment. Such a wasted opportunity it all feels... again. |

Throw in the equally annoying Lineker and I'm with you. I only start watching all the games when the teams come out onto the pitch. By HT and before the giggly bellend Micah Richards starts his analysis, I'm off to make a cuppa or have a dump. I like Mark Chapman and that's about it as far as the BBC are concerned.. |

Very poor game. Scotland are sh1te - and Adams has been abysmal. |

You'd never guess this fella is one of those caught up in the scam. Craig Williams, who is standing for the Conservatives in Montgomeryshire & Glyndwr, said he "Placed a flutter". I mean... would you ever guess he was a Conservative MP by his looks alone? |

Southgate is Mr Safe, Mr Dull. It's been a while since I've watched England play such a dreadful defensive game in a big tournament and worry about conceding a goal. We have so many attacking threats/options in the squad. We should be playing with a swagger and making other teams worry about our firepower & threat instead - not sitting deep with the midfield just in front of the defence. The team are mirroring the manager at the moment. Dull, boring, and uninspiring. |

England's players are taking too many touches every time they get the ball & there's nowhere near enough movement/options when we do get the ball. Change it Gareth. |

My thoughts exactly. It's like watching Saints the season just gone. The waistcoat w@nker needs to make at least 2 changes at half time... but won't. And if he does, it'll be the wrong personnel. Same old same old... |

Just your normal, dirty, slimy MP's doing what they do best - looking after No1. |

Yes, I'm going to. You'll owe me 50% of my stake (£10) if it all goes tits up. |

Wow, that's pretty generous. Think I might well stick a £20 quid note on that! |
