Kane also implied England would be is appointed if they didn’t win, which is a bit arrogant sounding https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/c2vv2144n7jo.amp

Disappointed*

The pundits job is to critique the performance and tell it as they see it. Do we want to see sugar-coated opinions so to not upset players?
Do think any of the pundits were over the top in their criticisms.
I mean, James McClean has been far more aggressive with his criticisms on Irish TV and no doubt they have seen that as well, are they going to cry about him or get on with their jobs.

Lineker is a twaaaat these days, loved him as a player, hate him as a pundit.

Shearer, pfft, 1 title with Blackburn and could stand the pressure of being United number 9 so won nowt with Newcastle instead.

Bellingham at 20 has already surpassed both of them - I’m sure he would admit Real didn’t play well in the CL final and were outplayed by City in the quarters - he also knows that doesn’t mean a jot though

Didn’t the Scottish lads say they would be disappointed if they didn’t get out of the group? Now that’s arrogant

Lineker is a strange one for me. Sometimes I think he's a good lead but other times he gets carried away

McLean has a very good point Tbf

Hmm well England have 4 points and have a good chance of winning the group. That's all that matters at this stage. Work smart over working hard amiright?

Work harder - yes I’m sure the issue is we’re not putting enough effort in.

How old?

Lineker and Shearer were bigging England up before the tournament saying how the front 4 were the best in the tournament and the squad overall was the strongest.

Shearer picked England as his winners and not sure but I think Lineker might have also.

Can't help but this might be a little bit of a reality check for them.

It's not like they haven't got history doing that sort of thing.

I watched the Shearer Linaker podcast yesterday and there wasn’t anything they said that was over the top or incorrect.

DJ has a point in what he's saying but I don't remember if Italy played crap or not during the WC 2006 tournament, only that they won it. If England play like they have through the whole tournament and somehow win the thing. Will Lineker and Shearer or anyone else supporting England whinge then?

Of course not

Half the issue here is we’re not an entertaining side, people don’t like it. Personally I could give a toss.

Greece 2004 were eye bleeding to watch
Portugal 2016 were racking useless up until about the semis when they just had to beat faaacking Wales.
Spain 2010 - epically boring
Brazil 2002 - England were the only half decent side they faced

It’s tournament football - it’s all about results. Performances and entertainment count for nothing

You're or you are is correct here.
Thank me later.

Constructive criticism wasn't it? I'd prefer that to inane drivel which we get from from some pundits

It not exactly Souncess v Pogba is it?

You have three of the cleaniest cut footballers not even giving a paper cut to each other.

Nothing to see here. Move on.
