England Women

[patrickblue]

sexist specs off...
it's watchable but then so are the games in my sons u12 league (u10 not so much!)
obvious that the game going professional has seen a massive improvement in the standard but it's still littered with very basic mistakes
keepers being 170/175cm will always be an issue as they simply don't have the reach to get to anything that isn't pretty much straight at them
england have done brilliantly but there is way too much bandwagon jumping going on
will i watch the final - probably
will i ever go out of my way to watch a women's game after the euros - no

What are you judging it by, that's the question? If 'Premier League' is the answer then you will be disappointed.
I watched a lot of none-league football in years gone by and top tier women's football is roundabout EFL first division level (third tier) as near as I can make out (which is already a big improvement on previous seasons).
There's one or two stand-out players (Bronze for example) who could maybe handle the Championship (tier two), which you might say is a taste of things to come.

I worked with a girl who was an ex Wales international when I was working in the homelessness sector, and watched her play in a local men,s tournament. She was technically, clearly the best player on the field but was just outmuscled all the time.
However, she did score the only goal the tournament winners conceded, bending the ball round a six foot keeper in a half size goal.

lucy bronze is wouldn’t make it past u15 or u16 in the mens game. the gulf in ability / physicality is not even worth debating.
i’ve enjoyed the knock out games and am really pleased that the ladies won but i won’t be watching them again in the near future…

Agreed. No womans footballer would make it in any of the top 4 leagues in England.

Not taking anything away from them tonight well done but there needs to be an air of realism.

When i was under 14 i played against the irish girls under 21 team and we abs battered them into double figures.

That said, id have more faith in the womans coach than gareth southgate.

She stuck with White too long for my liking this tournament. Misplaced loyalty. Can't really fault her other than that.

The big communal bath after the match must have been fun though. "where's the soap ?" , "yes doesn't it !"

Squad of 23
8 City players , 3 Rags, 4 Chelski, 4 Arse, 1 münchens, 1 Barca , 1 A Villa, 1 Houston,

Does the 8 from City include Jill Scott? I thought Bronze & Stanway both transferred to Bayern and Scott also left us this summer.

[City64]

Fucking awesome that
Tits out for the lads
Unbelievable grit and determination from the Lionesses
England is a fantastic Nation
Politicians are fucking wank
Get a grip English society and fucking learn !!!!

[Bournemouthcityfan]

What sickening comments wouldn’t get in u15
Who fucking cares they’re women playing women and our girls beat the Germans in a final a fucking sight more
Than England men could manage unless you go back 60 years or so .
I didn’t realise there are so many sexist wankers on this site.

pair of idiots

[dazby]

Said it before, I'll say it again. Your kids and grandkids will be totally embarrassed by your sexist comments.

Congrats on the win.

[Indianablue]

Great result for the women's team. I think it fair to compare and contrast against men's football standards because that is what the media are doing and they are pushing it very strongly. It was entertaining to watch but there is a vast gulf between the male game and what we saw last night. Some sexist comments sure but an embarassment? Come on, its a forum and she did get get her top off for the crowd which made a few guys perk up a bit

I genuinely think you’re a parody account now. Absolutely no way you don’t realise what you post is saved.

FFS that made me chuckle out loud

[carl_feedthegoat]

There are some real woke wankers on this site - Dazby is the fucking worst of the lot - I’d suggest you go join a Girl Scouts club where you can compare rainbows , join hands at weekends and sing ‘we are the world’ - you fucking wimp.

Your being a bit too manly with this post of yours .
You need to gender it down a bit for the wokies .

BTW - you are spot on .

On Radio 4 last night a reporter simply pointed out that until the womens game brings so many fans worldwide and so much money . There should be no discussion of parity.

Tennis is the benchmark I suppose.
