Spot on and watching England is tough to take with the talented players to pick from but Southgate can't get the best out of any of them,I could only pick saka and the crystal palace defender who put a shift in, Watkins did ok when he came on,the rest were shocking,no game play,no fight in midfield,powder puff up front,I'm watching Spain game now and they r at a different level to England,I really thought this was our year but my heart is going to be broken again when we get knocked out,hope I'm wrong 🤣🏴🇬🇫🦁🤬🏆
Southgate has some of the best english players we've seen in a long time running around like headless chickens who'd probably get relegated in the premiere league
Not sure whats worse. Being a Scotland fan knowing we will never win a tournament or being an England fan with the players to win a tournament but never actually doing it.
The usual clowns on BBC and Talksport bad mouthing Ronaldo for not helping at the back are now crying for Harry not to drop deep 🤡🤣🤣🤣🤣 What a bunch of hypocrites!!!
Never mind the tactics. Some of the basics weren't even right. Sloppy passes on several occasions in each half. Also, I'd take Bellingham out and put Foden in the centre. Foden and Saka the only ones looking to create anything.
All the hype before the tournament from the fans and the pundits, about how England should play and who should be picked and what position they should play in. Trent should play alongside Rice, Foden in a free role, Bellingham as a 10, Eza and gordon is a better pick for Rasford, Sterling and Grealish, so southgate is doing the right thing for once. Let stone join the midfield like he does at city, Kane doesn't get in behind so watkins should be picked, Foden as a ten. Southgates made the picks that everybody wanted and he's tried everything the fans wanted also. The reality of the situation, is England are not Man city they're not Liverpool, they're not Spain. England are England, a half decent team who have been progressively successful by playing a certain way, and thats been simple football, with 2 holding midfield player in a 3, being well origanised with pace up front on either side with kane down the middle in a 3. Sterling has statistically been Englands best player in this period, the guy got England to a final and so did Grealish and Rashford and Sake and Kane. England have gone from having 4 top class forward players, who could terrorize defenders, get in behind, create and link up and score goals on either flank, to only Saka on the right, who in these last 2 games, him and walker are the only players who are creating chances and getting in behind defenders. In my opinion, England have got to make do with who they have at the moment and try and emulate that, I think Bellingham must play along side rice as the 2nd holding midfield player in a 3, with perhaps Foden or Palmer. I think gordon and Watkins should be used out wide on the left, one as the starter and one as cover, with kane down the middle and Toney as cover with Saka on the right with Bowen as cover. If Southgate doesnt wake up and revert back to the things that have brought England, the progressive success before. England will get terribly embarrassed in the last 16. Listen England are not going to get to a final this time around, but if sothgate can sort them out and make brave decisions atleast we can show a little bit of heart going forward and not get embarrassed, and atleast it will be his last tournament anyway. Only a miracle can take england to a final and its not going happen, they aint playing possum either, the guys wasted his picks and blew the tournament from the start. This England squad is not better than the 2020 squad.
Playing to defence midfielders is stopping Stones coming out with the ball, He hasn't got a clue he plays trent but we have a strike that comes short. It doesn't make sense what he is doing
I’ll tell you what…that Ramirez is a cracking player isn’t he? If he doesn’t win player of the tournament there’s no justice! Three cheers for Ramirez…hip hip hooray, hip hip hooray, hip hip hooray!!
Absolute garbage, post match Southgate actually admitted that playing Alexander Arnold in midfield was an experiment, the man is clueless. Why is Gallagher getting on in front of Palmer, a player that could really affect the game and why is a 2nd rate player like Bowen being brought on.
@@jamesmccann763 a manager who encourages players to dominate the ball by winning it back and pressing..will get more out of the teams attacking players..albeit with risks defensively! England has a chance to beat some of the bigger sides playing to their strengths. And with respect, Scotland have zero truly word class players!
@@Slim_45 England have been spoiled rotten for talent over the years and won nothing !!! can’t keep blaming the managers !! maybe try lowering ur expectations back ur team to the fullest n who knows maybe 2066 football will eventually come home again😜😂
He's causing too much congestion in midfield, we have enough playmakers. He needs to get up the pitch and push their defense back, to create room for others. But that's not his game is it, so yeah drop him. Watkins isn't a bad player as a replacement and gives us what we clearly need. We have to think of the team first.
thought guehi was world class the other day. when i told the truth people calling me out. 😂 bambi on baby oil. slip all over the pitch as if it was iceskating ring. and declan rice, stop calling him world class, he is on harry arter and jeff hendrick level.
Seriously,... the conversation you 2 guys had... was EXACTLY the same in every living room in the country!!!... We ALL know!..... except the ppl on the pitch :(
Harry Kane is killing us. Way too deep. The other strikers we have can put the chances away that this team can create. We need a striker who can hold the ball up . Link it and get in behind. Harry Kane wants to play CDM!!!
These people playing are not machines!! Fair enough they are elite athletes but they have not had a break after their gruelling season. Worse if they had European club games. One of the solutions would be to start the lesser profile players who are fitter and integrate the others in and around that. We don't need anyone collapsing on the pitch❣️
Southgate is CLUELESS and i do not understand how the FA and media ignore this. He is using tactics from Mourinho 05, brother in christ we are 20 years later football has changed, he is soooooooo sh*t this is insane how are you brining Gallagher on for CONTROL How are you not putting Trent at RB when his link up with Saka is great How is Walker starting who refuses to put a cross in How have you got foden going inside leaving trippier 2v1 and no width to run at defenders
It's worse than that, he doesn't embrace the reality of no left backs by going three at the back. Of course it's not plan A, but you can't play Plan A when you have no Left Backs.
The biggest joke is Southgate!!! The man hasn't got a clue!!! Player selection is shocking.... tactics is shocking.... and his reading of the game is embarrassing 😳..... How this man has been in charge for so many years is a crime to English football.... he got the job by default... should've won world cup!!! Should've won the last euros!!! We was given the easiest path in both tournaments... lost to Croatia shocking!!! Then lost to a weak Italy side home at Wembley with both shocking performances.... then tonight he selected the same team that we were lucky to get a 1-0 win last time out!!! The whole country saw the in balance of the team and poor selection.... playing individuals out of position, unfit and out of from... whole of Europe is laughing at that clown calling the shots!!!
We are not good enough from top to bottom. How many so called world class players couldn't make a simple pass or trap a ball. Southgate is poor but the players are not good enough
Same old from England yet again. Go a goal up and then sit back and go all defensive. Denmark had chances to score throughout the second half and could and maybe should have won the game, and to be honest it would have been well deserved. For 45 minutes they were better than us. Atrocious performance by England again. We will progress from the group stage but OMG if we play like this against Germany or France we'll get battered. Simply not good enough I'm afraid.
England should sack southgate and bring in someone with even half a brain, before it becomes really embarrassing. Playing against any of the big six it could end up a cricket score.
