England I’ll not lose this game 3 Mickey Mouse brackets in a row impossible to choke all these rigged tournaments

Weghorst won’t start

England are also chokers ​@@clarencegaultieri8293

Weghorst is legally bound to not go on before half time.

Stick to the facts. England has quality players like Kane Bellingham, Saka, Foden, Palmer. So the quality is there!

The reason; McManaman is a knobhead.

England have been better as of recent, 3 semi finals in 4 major tournaments + a tight quarter vs France. Netherlands are a decent team, they aren't a top team like Spain, France, Portugal, Germany. Netherlands haven't really been very good in this tournament either, they've rode their luck quite a bit. Third in the group when they played Poland without Lewandowski, France without Mbappe, lost to Austria, a result that flattered them vs Romania & a pretty close game vs Turkey who also had one of their most important/best players suspended. There is an overall difference of quality player for player between Netherlands and England, on paper it's very obvious who should win - but both teams have been poor so pretty much anything can happen and nobody is saying otherwise.

@@dvwut Exactly.

@dvwut Both England and the Dutch didn't play very well this tournament. On paper England has the better players. Does this guarantee a win for England? Not so sure about that!

Dude are you ok ? They in the semi final now. Are you reetard?

The opposition England have played, and mostly will play, do not have a squad with the depth of England. Secondly, you have the option of making tactical as well as personnel adjustments to counter any of the opponents moves. Football at a high level is a tad chess like, and most fans expect to see a Man City vs Sheffield Utd result, which rarely happens. England are happy to wear down the opposition, knowing also that most replacements offer the same quality. Add that most goals are scored because of defensive mistakes and not genius play, England have a good winning formula. Not pretty but proven effective. Germany in 90', Brasil in 94', or Italy (in any tournament) were very similar. The "try not to lose" tactic.

Staggering, really.

@@lastpenny849I’d agree with you totally if the games were boring but we were winning without letting them near our goal. But each team has been able to penetrate and get very good chances on goal, it’s just pure luck and a bit of poor finishing from lower ranked teams that have seen us scrape the games to get us where we are. I agree international is like a game of chess but allowing the opponents the chances we have done so far Holland, Spain and France will demolish us as when they get the chance they will likely convert with the quality they have in attack.

​@@Oldyellowbrick The old saying that you play what is in front of you is often true. England haven't been good, but they also haven't lost a game yet. So, if they actually play well, you could argue no other team should beat them. Only Spain have looked cohesive, and they are missing 4-5 starters for the semi. France haven't scored from open play yet and Holland were beaten by Austria. Not one team remaining is scary, and if England play better than the previous game, they will prevail.

😂

We need more cross passing and I would even argue to add an extra keeper to get a bit more passing around the back

If koeman doesn't decided to play useless bergwijn instead like the last 2 matches.. He changed to bergwijn after malen being MotM... So who knows...

England will win it. Been watching for 35 years now. Spain 3 : France 1, England 2 : Netherlands 0 England 1 : Spain 0. Spain the better side but England will play their heart out knowing that.

Never gonna happen

BUKAYO SAKA is d most dangerous player in d English Team. But if d Dutch can underestimate him as d Swiss did, then England will win. But if they mark him well then there may be troubles ahead.

@@jehoshua7102Nathan Ake always played well against Saka and eliminated him with city against arsenal. He knows the blueprint how to play against him.

True but Foden should play in the middle

Big mistake. Every team has defended that's why it's been super tight.

​@@Genevasplaytime I agree. Teams have been trying to stifle England. I doubt Holland will want it to go to penalties so will try and win this game. I'm hoping this might give England's attacking players some space to do some damage.

@@jimmygoody3187 We dont want penalties or overtime, we want to attack.

The problem with that (apart from the counter issue) is that its energy absorbing..Its not just pace its movement, Walker is fast but he sometimes be indecisive...

Netherlands could lose by 2+ goals if they do that. England wants to play counter football.

Harry Kane sounds like a character from hogwarts

England have a good chance against anyone.

I think the Dutch at this moment have more talent, but Koeman is not using them properly, Malen, Frimpon, Vd Ven, Maatsen, Zirikzee, Verbruggen, Schouten, Rijnders, and all had a great season and play at top clubs

2026 we will beat the world!

I think the commentators feels it's better to write England off and then for England to possibly surprise everyone than to get everyone's hopes up like last time and then for everyone to be depressed for 2 weeks after England lose. That's my understanding.
