Lewis Capaldi has said he will “never go home again” in a new video ahead of England’s clash with Spain in Berlin, Germany, in the Euro 2024 final on Sunday.
The Scottish singer said he “doesn’t understand” England’s “optimism” when it comes to the Three Lions playing in “any kind of competition”.
The Someone You Loved hitmaker called on Brits to go back to being “miserable bitches” and “get back to the land”.
In a new TikTok video, Lewis told LadBible: “He’s never going home, ever! I have no problem with England, the country I live in. I love the English and I spend a lot of time here.”
Lewis went on to reveal that he also “has no problem” with England football players, but instead criticised the supporters.

He continued: ‘I’ve got no problem with the English players, I love them and spend a lot of time watching them play for their respective teams and they seem like a great bunch.
“But what I can’t stand is that I don’t understand the optimism you have when England takes part in any kind of competition. It’s as if you forget that we are all miserable.
‘Every two years you say, “Come on, England, we can do it,” you have to come back down to earth like the rest of us and be so fucking pessimistic it hurts.
“This is the UK, nobody wins anything. They will never go home, never.”
Meanwhile, fellow stars Ant and Dec, Amanda Holden and WAG Dani Dyer led the pack in showing their support for Gareth Southgate’s side on social media ahead of their hopeful Euro 2024 final win.
England come into the game as underdogs, with Spain winning all six of their games so far and the Three Lions managing four draws in 90 minutes.
Former Love Island star Dani, 27, is in Berlin to support her fellow England player Jarrod Bowen and posed for some photographs before the match got underway.

Meanwhile, fellow celebrities Ant and Dec led the pack in showing their support for Gareth Southgate’s side on social media ahead of their hopeful Euro 2024 final win.
Dani posed in another picture with her actor father Danny, 46, before the game before heading off to meet up with other WAGS for drinks.
Meanwhile, Kate Ferdinand had also travelled to Berlin and shared a snap in the crowd sporting a crop top as her footballer ex-husband Rio took on his TV presenting duties.
Dani was later seen celebrating with Conor Gallagher’s partner Aine May Kennedy and striker Ollie Watkins’ girlfriend Ellie Alderson.
Meanwhile, Amanda Holden dressed to impress in full England kit and a novelty hat as she watched the match in Spain.
She playfully drank a Guinness and posed at the bar with a group of Spanish fans.
TV duo Ant and Dec shared a snap in their England shirts as they passionately wrote: “Go lads!” in the caption.
Messages of support come as Gareth delivered an emotional message to his England heroes ahead of their date with destiny: “Go and fulfil your dreams.”
The national team will face Spain in the Euro 2024 final on Sunday night after a tumultuous tournament, and Southgate said: ‘I don’t believe in fairy tales but I believe in dreams and we have big dreams but you have to make those things happen.
“The run we’ve had, the late goals, the penalties, but that doesn’t allow us to achieve it. We have to perform at our best.”
“When you try to create dreams, you need a vision to go with them. That lights a little flame. We know what it would mean (to win).”

England’s men’s team have not won a major trophy since the 1966 World Cup and Southgate added: “We have to get this trophy to earn the respect of the rest of the football world.
‘I travelled to World Cups and European Championships to watch them as an observer (before I became England manager) and to watch highlights on the big screens before games we didn’t feature in. They only showed the finals and the big games.
“We had high expectations, but they didn’t match our performance. Now they do.”
“I’m not afraid of what might happen tomorrow because I’ve been through everything. I want my players to feel that courage… If we’re not afraid of losing, we’ll have a better chance of winning.”
All three are contesting their second consecutive Euro final after the disappointment against Italy at Wembley in 2021.
The team lost on penalties at home, and that night remains etched in the memories of those involved.
“I think it shows incredible consistency, first and foremost,” captain Harry Kane said on Saturday night. “A lot of us, after that final, were obviously heartbroken about the result, as always, a long road back to get to where we are now.”
“All credit goes to the lads for the resilience we have shown. That says a lot about the mentality of the team, which is very happy to be in this situation and to be playing in a European final again. Of course, we are really desperate to go one step further than last time.”

England come into the game as underdogs, with Spain winning all six of their games so far and the Three Lions managing four draws in 90 minutes.
However, this has not worried Southgate, who is happy that his planning so far has paid off.
He added: “We haven’t had a lot of time on the training ground, but we’ve had a number of meetings trying to assess the opponent and determine the best way to play against them.
“But our messaging hasn’t really changed over the six or seven weeks we’ve been together: We’ve had a long-term vision and we’ve always broken it down into smaller pieces.”
