The Engliah just shouldn't bash other countries/foreigners for doing it.

What's your point?  For doing what?
That other teams complain when decisions go against them or soft decisions against other teams?
And why shouldn't they? They're nowhere near the level of rolling about of the Italians or Spanish.
I'd actually enjoy it if they were a goal up and Italianed the last 10 minutes.

The English should totally Italian for the last 10 minutes and not criticize other teams of doing it and then deny, "Oh, we're English, we don't do that."

These are not real people though that the people screaming hypocrisy are talking about
No rational person thinks england dont do the same types of gamesmanship the Italians for example have done for decades
Most people wish the English team were better at it and did it more

Same with booing anthems. The English are just trying to fit in.
You'd never have fans in Central America if booing/whistling during the opposing team's anthem was sanctioned.

It's not their fault they got to play against a bad german team
That spain choked in their own group and didnt win it so we got ukraine instead of them in the qf
And that the dutch couldnt beat the czechs so we couldnt face them in the semis
The only thing I'm extrapolating is what a bunch of chokers those supposed powerhouse teams are

That's it?
An article with a quote from Dietar Harman and Marca?
Still don't get your point. They got one soft penalty and all of a sudden you want to lump them in with the Italians, Spanish and to a lesser extent the Germans?
They're still nowhere close to them lot. Look at the way they played the last 10 minutes.
You want to comment on the (lack of) playacting and time wasting?

I see the difference between Italian & English simulation and 5h!t-h0usery, to the Calciopoli and English anti-taking-a-knee fandom.
It's a bloody lightyear span.

yeah no ####, Sherlock ... pretty comical to come out with this stuff now. We all know why you did it, so spare us your fake enlightenment. Looking forward to Infantino saying after the Qatar WC "wow, that was actually not a great idea, with the weather and human rights and all. Who knew?"

Perhaps then you shouldnt make the tournament economically prohibitive to host.
