...at the World Cup against a very poor side. And (once again) the players & media behave as if they've already lifted the Cup. Is this due to accumulated desperation from 52 years of repeated failures at WCs & Euros?
Wouldn't it be better to keep some perspective in order to soften the inevitable disappointment that's just around the corner when they meet some quality.
Or why not over-react and enjoy a win against poor opposition, whilst the going's good?
Unlike the media, my English mates have decided to keep a lid on it, as they know their football.

I couldn't believe BBC Breakfast this morning, I thought England had beaten Germany 10-0 in the final, such was the ecstatic coverage from the word go. Is there seriously no other world news they could have led with for the first ten minutes?
Roll on the next round and their inevitable elimination.

The England players look so gloomy after a win. I know the media would have a pop at them for over celebrating, but the media are guilty as well of polishing a turd victory. On the subject of celebration, they need to cut out that "pile on" act every time someone scores....you just know with England a metatarsal is waiting to crack!

The English embarrassed themselves celebrating like monkeys as if they've scored a last minute extra time winner against Germany in the final or something.
As if they have zero self belief. It's bloody Tunisia in the group stage ffs..
Anyway who cares really what England do or don't..they won't reach the quarter finals.

Yes, never said I "cared", just find it really funny, happens in rugby too...and cricket...and...!!
It must be due to desperation for success...apparently, they played the best football of the tournament too....Portugal 3-3 Spain has been forgotten/ignored 😜

All media is cringe worthy and thecWelsh are just as bad
Recall the rugby hype at any tournament
Garland likes winding up the opposition, but I can't recall Welsh rugby claiming to be World Champions elect, like England. They're worse than ever since that Aussie rocked up...good seeing Eddie Jones's fizzog looking like a smacked arse after 6 defeats on the trot...a d one at Aitch-Q to a scratch BaaBaas side...priceless 😈

I'm looking forward for some proper thrashing in the knockout stage that'll put them in their place..All of those diving cheating puffed up "stars"..
"oh em gee Harry Kane is going to top Klose's record!" haha..as if he'll play enough World Cup matches to do so..he better starts scoring hat-tricks.
Not to forget the funniest joke.."Jordan Henderson is a true leader..but you can't see it from the screen..But believe me he's been encouraging his teammates and giving them instructions" hahahaha..kill me now.
The media is excited that Kane is the 1st English player to score a double in the WC since 1990..lol if anything it's just an indication how sh!t the national team has always been you mugs.

And the Rugby world cup should really be called the played by a few countries cup, because most of the worlds countries have little or no interest in the game.

At least they are there mun, and they qualify every time unlike ourselves, you need to stop the hating and jealousy and just accept they are superior to us.

Who have Wales beaten in the last three world cups, whoops sorry I forgot, they did not even qualify.
With respect, you've missed the point. We don't think we're world beaters see. England do and their delusion is a constant source of humour to every other country. Even Germany don't go banging on about being World Champions and they've achieved it numerous times.
If "Englanders" would just keep their gobs shut, then they wouldn't repeatedly become the figures of fun they've become for the last 50 odd years. Even their own media turn on them, if Kane hadn't got the last minute winner, this lot would have just been the latest bunch of Muppets to pull on the "3 Lions" ðŸ˜

A bit like the World Series in baseball or the World tiddlywinks championship then....and your point is?

What a pathetic comment. England has a population of nearly 50 million, football is by far the biggest spot, and failing to qualify would be absolutely embarrassing. Wales has a population of under 3 million that gets rugby rammed down it's throat where qualifying in itself would be an achievement. Only one country of 3 million or lower has achieved qualification this time, and usually not a single one achieves this.

I was at a 60th birthday party in London on the weekend and of all the Englishmen (and women) I spoke to not a single one thought they would get as far as the quarter finals. Scrape out of the group and then lose the first knockout game was the most common and most optimistic assessment.
If you assume that the media represents the view of the average England supporter my experience suggests that you’re wrong. They are incredibly realistic in my (admittedly limited) personal experience.

It's really amusing that we get the hype every euro/world cup. They get a positive result and Lineker starts creaming himself. Also writing off Panama in same way that Iceland were 2 yrs ago. I personally hope they get to the quarters cos they'll all be at fever pitch and watching them fck it up and the inevitable excuses/ misery will be hysterical.

The European championships is arguably a higher standard of football than the world cup, and Wales have won more knockout round matches than England, ever.

BBC morning presenters clearly no interest in football making even more cringeworthy. They'll now build up Panama as world beaters.
