saint lard Posted 25 November, 2022 Share Posted 25 November, 2022 Desperately trying to look on the brightside……. Atleast we know they were looking at quality and tried to move in to sign him (Gapko). On the downside…bugger. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wade Garrett Posted 25 November, 2022 Share Posted 25 November, 2022 We may have well have bid for Messi rather than Gakpo in the Summer. Exactly the same percentage chance of that deal being completed. You can’t sign players who are 100% not interested in joining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like both us and Leeds had fees agreed but Gakpo realised he could get a massive move by waiting and playing the World Cup. But twats will blame Semmens because what, he didn't force him to sign at gunpoint? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saint1977 Posted 25 November, 2022 Share Posted 25 November, 2022 (edited) USA faded second half v Wales but have been by far the better side as they were in the first half in that game. Mount has the talent but never looks the part in an England shirt as he does for Chelsea. Can see why Saints were interested in McKennie and also why they didn’t get him. Exactly what we needed (and still do). Better to sign a handful of overpriced City youngsters that we don’t need. Would like to see Grealish and/or Foden for Mount at HT, get some movement off of Kane. At the moment, there might as well be an ocean between him and the midfield. Maguire has provided more of a threat than them and they aren’t screening the defence either. Sterling off as well, keep Saka on. That was better, Shaw getting in behind, just behind Saka. Mount nearly scores - probably saved him from the HT hook. Sterling should be off at HT. Edited 25 November, 2022 by saint1977 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheaf Saint Posted 25 November, 2022 Share Posted 25 November, 2022 I think you just have to give credit to USA here. Tactically, they've got it spot on. They've kept a good shape, pressed effectively, closed off the passing lanes and made it very difficult for England to play through or around them. They burned themselves out in the second half against Wales though. I wonder if part of our gameplan involves letting them do that again and then going at them later on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shouldn't Southgate be clever enough to deal with USA tactics and change the way we are playing? It's what good coaches do. He's watched and done nothing. They are pressing so we need more in midfield so there is an outball for the defence - do that and they won't be so eager to press but at the moment they are unopposed.

RedArmy Posted 25 November, 2022 Share Posted 25 November, 2022 You’d think a manager that loves to play turgid park the bus football would understand how to break down a team that’s playing turgid park the bus football. What is the point in leaving Shaw and Trippier sat deep so we can fail to find any space in the attacking third and turn round and pass the ball back to them to try and fail again? Get them forward, it’s not rocket science. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
