He might well be, but no one is celebrating second place. He's had multiple tournaments, which most coaches aren't afforded. He has a generation of players, real depth, not seen since maybe Sven's days.

I don't doubt the FA's capability to appoint someone worse to replace him, just pointing out his limitations. I actually have a lot of respect for him but if he's going to play like that with England he has to win.
+1 he is the best amongst a very bad bunch. The bar is so low it doesn't mean he is good.

He has been incredibly lucky in every tournament with easy draws and scrapping victory's.

He is also coaching in an era where the overall quality of international football is on a massive decline.

congrats to my boy fabian for winning. one of the best players of tournament and in the world currently.

i had faith spain would win from day 1 but they won it with style too which is nice. never liked england as you guys saw from my posts before so i feel good about this win.

sucks for harry kane cuz he is so likable and deserves a win, but football is ruthless like that. also i don't like england so nice they didn't win. it's also more proof that allegri like tactics can't get you win in one off matches.

Read these comments lol. How did England become the most hated football nation? I used to think it was only me.

EPL is the most followed and supported league. Yet in Europe especially Spain, Germany, Italy, and France to a lesser extent you'll find an anti English sentiment. The Scandinavians have a hard on for EPL and anything English imo as do Asians and north Americans. You might see different comments had this been in the world cup. Also those who are supporting England are weeping and licking their wounds right now. No time to jump on YouTube. Whereas pro Spanish fans/anti English will be all over social media as we speak.

it's their arrogance. their league is most popular in world but only because of international stars playing there, not because england players are the best.

but thier national team fans think they are god's gift to football.

That's the spirit, we were all genuinely all worried for you but you've taken this really well. Well done. Glad you changed your shirt, it was really starting to stink, and hey on the bright side there's a silver lining in your ballsack, at least you don't need to sacrifice anyone or anything.

Give it 10 years and I wouldn't be surprised of Spain becomes the biggest football nation. The amount of times Real keep winning the CL and Spain likely with another World Cup. It's strange to think that Spain hadn't won anything since 2008.

One of the English radio commentators was really fucked off with carvajal, he said "isn't he tired of winning things? Just retire let someone else have a go" :lol:
