Your pundits were giving it - Kane is dropping deep tonight and dragging the Italians all over the place. England lose and Southgate gets blamed for playing Kane so deep.

Quite amusing that the system that got England to the final is now under scrutiny. To the surprise of absolutely no one.

Hysterical that their star goal scorer had zero touches inside the box tonight.

ffs .. trust me, only moonhowlers are talking about Scotland tonight. Why would England care about how well the Scotland team is doing more than, say, Celtic care about how Falkirk are doing. Yeah, they are close by but .. ffs.. get real .. 

Is that the Scotland team that outplayed you less than 2 weeks ago.

England just finally got found out the night.

They ain't that good

Running that through Google Translate, because I'm too lazy to decipher Italian at 1 in the morning...

Right, it's a bit late, but let's nip this in the fucking bud.

Football does not belong to England, and as such, it was neither the invention England gave to the world neither is it ever "coming home".

 

In Italy it's not even called football. It's called calcio, because it's a codified version of the 16th century Florentine sport.

England didn't invent football, they were just the first to get a lot of those playing it to agree to a common set of rules.

I think you'll find the English media's narrative may differ..  ;)

Could quite easily see Chiellini and Bonucci playing Calcio storico.

Indeed nearly every Western European nation can have a claim...even Scotland

"The earliest reference to "fute-ball" in Scotland was in 1424 when King James I outlawed the playing of it in the Football Act 1424. This was presumably because of the disruption football was having on military training as well its often violent nature. Subsequent kings issued very similar decrees,"

Says the man who has spent all night on a Scottish football forum talking to primarily Scottish people about the performance of the Scottish national team.

Not sure the point you are making, it's difficult to process combined with officially the worst comedian in the world being shown in gif format, but be aware, as Scots we only look small minded when celebrating an English defeat. No matter the amount of joy that brings, and trust me it's considerable, any nationalist has to rationalist that emotion.

Don't get me wrong, I'm fucking ecstatic England lost, but ultimately we need to move on from that singular dimension. We are more than just the rivals to England.

Using lots of big words won't make your point any less shite
