Okay. Well. Yeah. Hello, guys. We're the two guys who decided short for work today. England have lost the World Cup semifinal and our heads are not on Mars.
i'm not gonna lie like okay i just want to say something right quick number one i'm gonna try and be like reasonable i'm not smashed i'm not on my face drunk or anything but like my head's so far gone right now not only by england fucking bottling it not only by two shoulder fucking spy not only by reeve not showing up to work you're doing what you're not doing so like i my head is on mars but i'm gonna try and stay calm yes you're doing what you're not doing
I'm just putting it out there that I'm actually so fucking gone. What I will say, Lewis, is you and I just had a very reasonable conversation on the walk home last 20 minutes. And we both disagreed with each other, did we not? But we had quite a valid conversation. So let's have a repeat of that conversation.
Should we skip to the... No, we shouldn't take it on from what happened. I think we should take it on from the moment that we took the lead and I went to you. We can't sit back like this because it's Argentina. Can I just say before you interject? I was shouted at by you and Harry for saying, no, it's fine, it's fine. Look, I understand that we got by against Mexico with 10 men, but we had no choice. Against Mexico, we had to sit back because we had 10 men. Against Argentina, a team that has proven to fucking nail you in the ass, and you have Lionel Messi on the team. How about let's not sit back for 35 minutes when we've actually controlled it quite well before that? How about when we get that goal, let's get another like Spain did against fucking France.
Let's not be fucking pussies, Tuchel, you spy.
Yes. In essence, Lewis, I do agree with you. I actually do agree with you. To play devil's advocate, which I did on the walk home, I say to you this. I say... Now, by the way, I actually agree with Lewis Bowden on this point, but I'm trying to see the other side of Tommy T, a.k.a. the spy.
He shitted. He shitted. He shitted.
You may be right, but in this scenario, I'm trying to see the other point of view. What we've done there is we've gone 1-0 up, we've seen Pesci, we've seen Argentina, we've seen their comebacks, and we've gone, ah, ha-ha, I'm absolutely terrified.
Can I tell you right now? Can I tell you right now? Can I just say this quickly? Really, I think you're doing a disservice. We've chatted ourselves. You love Ellie Anson in that game, yes? He's phenomenal. I think you're doing a disservice to people like Ellie Anson and others.
What happened in England vs Argentina that led to England crashing out?
I don't think any of them were looking at... They weren't scared of Messi for the 16 minutes before that game. And as soon as we took the lead, they aren't all of a sudden scared of Messi. That's managerial instruction. That is them being told to do something. That's us subbing on Dan Byrne and accepting, okay, this is how we play.
