This England team would blow today's England team away....glad I grew up with this squad

what a great squad they had 88-90 - linekar, gascoigne, waddle, beardsley, barnes, platt, rocastle, webb, parker, ince, shilton, pearce, robson, butcher, cottee...

You often hear Shilton talked about as one of the great keepers but see little of him, these highlights show how good he was, save after save! 6 clean sheets.

I'd forgotten how good Dave Rocastle was. 😢

That was a good team. Gazza was on fire, Lineker was on fire, Platt and Waddle played amazing.... Italy and Brazil also had excellent teams but the most boring, defensive Argentine squad eliminated both and we witnessed the most boring World Cup Final ever played. Neither teams, Germany or Argentina recorded even one single shot on goal in the final. Cameroon and Roger Milla were the stars of the tournament.

If your level your onside Ahh the good old days

Pre Blair ❤

A great England kit but the Italia 90 World Cup kit was even better!

It wasn’t quite as simple as the top two qualified. In the 6 qualifying groups, the four best second place teams also qualified. England scraped in as one of those, but had the last minute polish shot dipped under the crossbar instead of onto it, we would not have qualified as one of the best second placed teams

@13:27 it is like Gazza has the ball attached to his laces. Such close control.

England did far better than Sweden in Italy, actually.

When England used to go forward and try to score goals and win the game, instead of passing back and sideways and putting all the English fans to sleep.

The game away against Sweden butcher looked like he had been to the butchers. Madness

Beardsley was special

If Tarasiewicz's last minute shot in England's final qualifier had gone in instead of hitting the bar = no Italia 90 for England, no Gazzamania and the English public falling back in love with football, and maybe no Premier League being established on the buzz of the sport being rehabilitated following the grimness of Heysel, Hillsborough and Bradford in the 1980s. The story of English football could have been very different.

Poland vs England is amazing

My God those shorts were tight.

21:03 Looks like some 90s ISS / Sensible Soccer shit - Stewens, Mc Mahon, Rocastl.

Couldn't they find a new shirt for Terry Butcher in that Sweden away match??!

O paul gascoine levou o cartão amarelo na semifinal da copa 90 e não disputou o terceiro lugar contra a Itália.

10:39 Why was Albanien goal against England disallowed by reeferee?

My Country is out against spain-come on England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 !

How good was Barnes and Waddle

Why wasn't the Polish goalkeeper sent off for committing a professional foul on Lineker?

Sweden won the group and deservedly so. It was a surprise to me that they underperformed massively at Italia 90. Made up for it 4 years later, mind. Also at Euro 92.

Lineker jogou a copa 90??????

any VAR?

Shilton had some spring, even at his age.

Peter Shilton was massively overrated, he was too small to be classed as a great, he only won that many caps as back then there was nobody else to pick, he was so small he couldn't save penalties which is fact, that cost us in the WC90 semi when Robson should've brought on Dave Beasant

20:46 Butcher sure was butchered... thankfully u didnt show how he got this way

England was not that good in qualifiers. They owed a lot to Peter Shilton in those games.

England forever ..go Lions Go....👍👍

England pre woke

Shilton was always the weak link.

The best squad we ever had. We would have beaten Argentina in the Final except for that German penalty Shoot out
