They consciously tried to play the tournament like Portugal in 2016, one of the most eye-gougingly turgid major teams to win a trophy. 

Get me Rio Ferdinand's tears on an IV.

Unlike Scotland who just shat their bed immediately .. err, yeah, embarrassing stuff for England to lose on penalties .. in the final

When they could be cheering on five other countries instead ..

The only way it could have been better was if it was Grealish or Sterling rather that Rashford.

 

They both shat themselves. 

The shootout shows who the leaders in the team are. For England it's the two Harrys, and then there's a gap.

England the better team in the first half, but thereafter it was a tactical and technical masterclass from Italy. If they had a decent striker they'd be tremendous.

This could be a massive sliding doors moment from England, if they'd won the confidence would have been sky high and they might have become a decent force.  They won't have a better opportunity than the last World Cup draw, and particularly this competition.  They are a good side but not on a par with the very best. Agree with the points they should have tried to kill it off after HT.

Shame for the poor young lads who missed pens, hopefully they bounce back.

Absolutely over the moon England lost from the point of view of the media though. All this coverage beforehand about how this is a different team with a different mentality, and how Southgate is some psychology genius was so much horseshit.  You wait til you've won something before that kind of chat.

Well played Itsly, great entertainment all tournament.
