Jude Bellingham is absolutely incredible, he can carry a team on his back similar to how Steven Gerrard could. To think people on here were doubting his quality a month ago, he is everything I would want from a Liverpool player. You can tell he gets it.

Jude is already leagues ahead of Stevie G on the international stage. In a decade, we'll know if he matched Stevie G on a national level.
{Ed078's Note - leagues ahead?
12 Jul 2026 07:18:27
Yeah, never quite got the cynicism he'd get from sections of the fanbase. Maybe that was tinged with a bit of sour grapes cos he "chose" Real Madrid over us?
Fantastic player.
12 Jul 2026 07:37:25
Fantastic player, no doubt, but I'd not be happy if I was Tuchel right now. Very arrogant and unhelpful, some of his post game comments. You can tell he plays for RM.
12 Jul 2026 07:46:55
Spot on there, Westwood.
Jude has had a great tournament for England, but that attitude last night after the game stank.
Childish, arrogant and entitled.
Do you really want a guy in the dressing room who says "whatever" and "he's never played in those conditions" when told his manager rightfully wanted more quality from the team.
He's at the right club at least.
{Ed078's Note - agreed. He oozes arrogance, entitlement and cockiness.
12 Jul 2026 08:06:19
He oozes confidence because he is class and class players deserve to be confident. He got asked a question and he answered it honestly. I'm sure Tuchel didn't take offence to it. He is a winner, with bags of quality and he has worked harder than any other England player this tournament. Just the type of player Liverpool need at the moment.

Fair points, but I grew up on graft and humility.

What Red Will said.

"Leagues ahead of Gerrard", we haven't played anyone of note, and the Gareth Southgate fortunes for a decent draw continue. Gerrard did it for over a decade, and against sides who were far stronger. I expect to beat Norway.
12 Jul 2026 08:55:12
I'll defend both Tuchel and Bellingham on their post match comments, and if it hadn't been for Gabriel Clarke s*** stirring in his interview, we wouldn't be even talking about it.
Bellingham has carried England so far and regardless of people thinking he's arrogant, we won't be near winning it without him.
12 Jul 2026 08:57:35
Stevie G hardly ever played in CM.
12 Jul 2026 10:30:00
Jude tries to share credit with the team at every opportunity. He was waxing lyrical about his team mates leading up to the 'whatever' comment, which I think was more in frustration at the interviewer for trying to ruin the mood after a good win.
For people on this site to use throw around words like childish and entitled is hilarious.
12 Jul 2026 11:08:26
Bellingham is up himself and very arrogant, weren't the Dortmund players glad to see him go, just something about him.
12 Jul 2026 11:26:09
"Streets ahead of Gerrard".. in absolutely nothing.
12 Jul 2026 12:19:52
Name the great games Stevie G had for England (meaningful ones).
Doubt Jude will ever match Stevie G's consistency in his Nations League though. Stevie G turned many a match single handedly.
12 Jul 2026 12:33:25
Post loop, are you OK? Seriously?
12 Jul 2026 12:42:08
This whole Bellingham has an ego and Bellingham is arrogant shtick is so lazy. Every coach he's ever worked with says he is a great pro and a great person. People just don't like to see young people with confidence who talk like a leader and celebrate goals like that. People have a tendency to feel like they want to take confident young people down a peg or 2 because, at that age, they themselves couldn't dream of having that much confidence and ability.
Haaland says he's a great lad. Hendo says he's a great lad. I saw a video today of a player who was in a children's hospital who video called Jude off the cuff, and he answered and took time to talk to a young boy with cancer.
That interviewer last night was annoying, and both him and Tuchel both rightfully got annoyed with him.
