@UtdHeisenberg_@istanbullah The real problem England had was playing two centre mids and neither Gerrard or Lampard could play that position without a holding guy behind them. That was England’s downfall.
To make it easier for you to understand neither of them could play a 442
The problem with y'all constantly comparing yourselves to countries like Japan is that Japan didn't colonise half of the world and impose its language and culture on them.
You created a situation where foreign lands across the globe were bearing your flag, speaking your language and adhering to your customs. You then brought thousands of them back to your own shores, where they spent centuries on your homeland, forgetting their old ways and being completely absorbed into your own.
And then, in 1948, you declared all members of your colonies British citizens, and invited them to your country because of labour shortages. The main reason they took this offer is because their own homelands had been destabilised.
Japan can claim a higher percentage of ethnic purity because it didn't go on a centuries-long campaign spreading its culture across the world, all while shipping its vassals to its home.
England is in an entirely different boat. Pun intended. So is France and all the other colonial powers.
After 5 years I’ve finally decided to go back and try to get through The Last of Us 2. After Joel’s death I turned off the game and never went back. I’m having anxiety and I’ve only just watched the opening sequence
