Pickford is going to be the downfall of England. Incredible that he is the best English goalie.
I want to be wrong about that. But I agree. He is a weakness because he’s too unstable. He’s going to get embarrassed with a chip shot if he keeps coming 30 yards out of his goal.

I don’t know why Fox doesn’t put forward Clint Dempsey or buyout Tim Howard. Those dudes are the best guys for that job. They were actually good on and off the pitch and are good at talking.

For me it's not about him.

England has the overall best league in the world in the Premier League - only 2 english players are #1 goalie in the Premier league. Pickford being one of course. I have no doubt that he is the best option for England, but that is the scary part.

It’s been that way for a long time. He is mid.

yeah I heard tuchel told him to shut up and listen to his instructions. it's funny because tuchel and pickford have same guy syndrome. I want to cheer for england but i don't like pickford or tuchel. both are recycled plastic in my eyes.
I've always rooted against the England team. All that absolute arrogance and privilege for a team that hasn't won the WC since '66.

I hate Mexico (the national team) with the heat of 1,000 suns. Every old-school CONCACAF fan does.

El tri is truly our arch-nemesis!

100% they are Dr. Octopus to our Spider-Man.

And is there a more obnoxious, vile, fan base in all of soccer? Omg. They are truly repugnant!
