, Liverpool and Newcastle are doing so well and their players like Gakpo and Gravenberch are basically unstoppable 
, I mean who would've thought that a team from the lower divisions could make it all the way to the Champions League? 
its definitely giving England's football fans a lot of hope for the future 
! English teams are on fire 
Who knew they'd be so strong? 
I mean, Liverpool and Newcastle are killing it 
like Cody Gakpo and Ryan Gravenberch are some kinda superheroes 
. And Chelsea's win over Pafos was so close 
️ I'm hyped for the rest of the competition! 
Can't wait to see if this trend keeps going 
or if it's just a one-off 
Either way, England's football fans are SO proud 
.
. So yeah, it's a great time for English football fans and I'm all about it 
! Can they keep it up? We'll have to see if this is just a blip or England's squad is actually on another level 
. Of course, it's still early days, and we can't count on this trend lasting forever 
... but for now, let's just enjoy the ride 
!
can someone explain to me how the champions league works so i don't feel left out next matchday? 
. Chelsea's win over Pafos was insane too - that was a tough one 
. Fingers crossed we get to see more of this magic in the Champions League 
still think the Prem is overrated tho 
cody gakpo is literally a god on the pitch 
can't wait to see how long this streak lasts will they keep dominating or will other teams catch up? 
! I mean who needs a wand when you've got talented players like Cody Gakpo and Harvey Barnes on your team? It's like they're trying to prove that all those Premier League matches actually matter (although, let's be real, it's still not as exciting as watching the FA Cup). But seriously, this is some impressive stuff. I'm loving the confidence boost for English football fans right now. Maybe we can start calling our teams 'The Invincibles'... again? 
and man city being the only one not top 8 on goal difference is crazy 
. But for now, let's just enjoy it and cheer on our beloved teams! 
Cody Gakpo is a total genius, I mean have you seen that guy's skill on the pitch? 
Either way, it's been a blast to watch! 
and harvey barnes is my boy 
️ im loving every minute of this
. We've got some incredibly skilled players like Gakpo and Gravenberch who are doing well in Europe 
. The question is though, can they keep this momentum going? 
and i am HERE. FOR. IT! 
and cody gakpo is just pure magic 
he can score goals out of thin air lol keep it up england
