Ex-Germany player, Markus Babbel has come out to say that teams are not afraid of facing England in Euro 2024. He recently revealed that Jude Bellingham deserves a kick up the backside, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, Germany wouldn’t have any fear coming up against England, because even if some of the English players are among the current best in the world, they have been so poor at Euro 2024.
Babbel added that the body language from Bellingham has just not been right since the tournament kicked off.
His words, “Germany wouldn’t have any fear coming up against England. England might well have the best players but they have been so poor. If you see how England play, you get tears in your eyes. I’m not sure what they are trying to do, if you look at Trent Alexander-Arnold he is incredible for Liverpool and then for England, you’d think it was his twin brother.
There are top players, but no one is performing, England can’t be worse than they were in the group stage. I wish that Germany would have played against England because it was the easiest draw if you go by the group games. If they perform like they can then it will be difficult to beat them, but at the moment they look awful.
The body language from Jude Bellingham, my God, what’s going on with him?
Maybe he thinks that because he won the Champions League that now he’s the absolute superstar of England? Come on. If I was playing with him, I would kick him up the backside. He’s a top, top player. There’s a reason why he won the Champions League with Real Madrid because he’s an outstanding player, but when I see his body language, I go mad.
He’s still a young player. If Harry Kane was doing it then maybe. He has played so many years in the Premier League and was often the top scorer. Okay, I’d understand that. But, Bellingham? Come on. He’s doing well with Real Madrid but when you’re playing for England you have to give everything. If you don’t want to run, that’s not good enough for me because I expect so much more from this kind of player.
