    I had never heard of that song until it was sung in a bar following the semi. Now I am seeing references to it everywhere.

                  One too many comebacks required. Kane should never have started. Spain were brilliant all tournament and richly deserve that. Their only weakness is morata.

                    Better than I expected from England

                    Southgate should have made substitutions earlier

                      I guess those knighthoods are on hold - again.

                      Spain deserved winners.

                          Hope Williams signs for a premier league team. He is great!

                            Bellingham gave it the old Dan Carter 07 in this world cup. Watch everything and miss anything

                              To be fair, another tournament under the belt for most of those guys belts as well as replacing Kane and one or two others....I can only see them getting better.

                                Teams are interested but they will have to pay big money to get him out of Athletic Bilbao due to their Basque player payment policy.

                                    England eventually getting found out - players are good enough but they didn't really have a method of creating chances. In the end, the most successful tactic was pumping it upfield and hoping it fell for them. Good that Southgate made the changes but I think he should have thrown on someone like Gordon on the left as Carvajal strolled through game without a threat. Anyway, the best team in the tournament and on the night won and that doesn't happen often

                                      England had their moments in the tournament based on individual athleticism and instincts, but they rarely if ever outplayed teams or broke them down.

                                      Spain were excellent, including in the final. A very well organised and skilful team. Nico Williams was outstanding last night. The right team won.

                                        Better team won, I think ultimately our selection of Kane, on the basis of hope more than recent form was what cost us, his lack of movement meant Bellingham and Foden just had no movement or space in front of them. Don’t know how much of this is a cautious Southgate vs a balance of the attack. Not sure whether I want us to change Southgate, but maybe Eddie Howe would have us playing better football but there’s a lot to be said for the environment GS has created. Not as gutted as four years ago, we didn’t deserve it

                                          For the regular football watchers, was Kane knackered and/or injured?

                                          I ask because he was scoring goals for fun at Bayern this season with what looked like a real spring in his step
