Letting a visibly horrified Saka take the decisive penalty is horrific cowardice on a number of people's part. 

Letting two teenagers that didn’t look ready was pathetic. Where were the vets?

Imagine putting the youngest player on the last penalty. Stupid bastard.

Precisely! My thoughts exactly and the 2 subs he brought on in the dying moments to take the penalties, Sancho and Rashford, both missed their penalties.

Best team won the comp, well done Italy.

Massive tournament from Southgate, big performances throughout, this team is still on the up. Still more progression from Saka, Sancho, Greenwood, Foden...done the country proud.

Feel sorry for Saka, the lad shouldn’t have been in the first five takers. Really poor final three pens, but I’m not gonna knock any of them. The pressure was far too much for them too handle as young men, what a shame to go out like that. 
 

Southgate taking off senior players like Walker and Henderson at the end was absolutely ridiculous. Players like Sterling and Grealish not down to take a pen before the likes of Saka and Sancho is also a joke. His management in this final left a lot to be desired, he’s failed some of the young lads at the end there.

What if he said he wanted to?

Poor Saka, 19 year old kid bottled it under pressure. But really we didn't play very well in this final if we are honest. It's a gutting feeling losing like this on penalties again. :(

Bottled it? Bit harsh. He didn't bottle anything.
