I know it's not fashionable and I know he's not an elite player but I can't help it, I do like that Wout Weghorst. A big hard f**ker up front which our midfielders could work off of, could be something different for us to have.

Watkins!!!! 

And there we have it !

Arise Sir Gareth for those genius subs LOL

Southgate needs to be knighted. Subs have been brilliant all tournament long

Foden contributed nothing?

In comparison. Saka provided the big moment last game, Jude twice before that.

 

Foden can score bucketloads for City, he just has not been that player at this tournament for England. Jude and Saka much more likely to win the game for England than him imo.

Best manager we ever had !

As soon as I see Cole played the ball into Watkins I knew what was coming he scores that goal for Villa week in week out !!

In this game though Foden ran the first half had a shot off the line and hit the post.  

Like I have been saying all along, Southgate is a top manager.

2 finals, one semi. Has any England Manager had a better record other than Sir Alf?

Brilliant tactics, brilliant subs. Cole and Watkins do the business.

And it was said Foden should not come off, that's why he did.

But was Cole and Watkins, who came on when he went off, that won it, not Foden. Was the right call.

Somebody score the winning goal, I don't want to live through another 30 minutes of this.

Thank you, Ollie!

Only one England Manager has taken the national side to a final on foreign soil. Gareth Southgate.

Take a well deserved bow. Let the haters hate, he delivers.

Unlucky Val. Would have been happy for you had the Dutch gone on to win it.

If we have him upfront top 4 is a given 😃

So that's the Swiss beaten, who knocked out holders Italy, and now a good Holland side beat.

Nicely done England.

We’ll find out after his England role.  I’m pretty sure it will be none eventfully.

For all the England fans on here, congratulations and enjoy it ladies and gentlemen.

If Southgate had the balls to start Watkins and Palmer over his favourites, we wouldn't have to sit through so much sh*t before we get the win. The changes work because these players are positive. Palmer see's a pass, he will play it. Watkins can see the space, he will run into it. They do things the likes of Saka and Kane won't do, and in Kane's case, he can't do anymore because he doesn't have the legs.

I don't give a f**k about our national team @axman2526 ! I'm happy the orange madness is over.

I don't think he'd leave Villa for us when they have CL football next season. But I agree.

Dutch were unlucky, I think England probably just deserved it but huge slice of luck in there
