Toadhall Saint Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 This is why I stopped watching good old England- the manager is defender by nature. So when we get a goal we shrink backwards on to our own 18 yard line and giving the opposition the freedom of 80 odd yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benjii Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 (edited) That's a mess from England. Second best team in this match so far. All over the place in defence. Shapeless. No intensity. "Trent" isn't a midfielder. Trippier isn't a left back. Foden all over the shop. Crap. Pretty inexcusable to be that messy.

It’s because Liverpool play a system where he steps out into midfield and can play passes from there. How that qualifies you to start in that position for England is beyond me? I read somewhere that he started 3 games for Liverpool in centre mid… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saintant Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 No movement off the ball, nobody attempting to take up positions between the lines, big spaces left by Denmark but nobody bothers to move into them, giving Denmark all the time and space on the ball - if this continues we'll lose this game. Southgate needs to make massive tactical changes to get this team playing because right now we look pathetic - not sure Southgate has the nous.

Who gave Phillips his gateway mars bar? Who told Henderson that the LGBT community would be fine with his move? Now you know. - Establish yourself in an attacking role, in an attacking team. The media love an attacking full back - Make the attacking team one that the media fawns over for 50 years. - Even better if managed by bestest manager ever. Who could doubt his tactical genius? - With the above in place, when you're found out in your original position, it's hard to be dropped. Suggest a move to an injury ridden part of the team.

Midfield_General Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 I’ve tried to give Southgate the benefit of the doubt, I really have, but with the bizarre forcing into the side of TAA and the way they drop back, become passive and stop pressing every single time they score, against the most average of opposition - it’s becoming very difficult to see what he’s trying to do at this point.
