Any chance of any subs?

Schoolboy defending

Plan A would be a start

It’s 3:27am here, FFS someone have a shot on target so that there’s a chance that I can get some sleep before the dogs want out

There is a real tendency for this side to retreat and then become inert

a prediction with a 100% chance of success mind

And my opinion re previous tournaments won’t change either I’ve no idea what UK TV pundits have been saying, so I’ve no idea re the criticism over there. I’m stuck listening to Michael Bridges blowing smoke up Southgate’s hoop If we know we disagree on this one, probably best to agree to disagree and move on

Would be impressive if this was ‘90s Italy

2018, 2020, and 2022 had unbelievably kind draws too. One win vs a top ten ranked country (Denmark). I would’ve backed pretty much every previous England manager to have done exactly the same

I’m sat listening to Michael Bridges talking absolute shite tbf. Perhaps it is different on BBC / ITV

I take it you’re not listening to the pundits? I’m not talking about anyone on here

He definitely hates the left, like all conservatives

Absolute snorefest There’s still a good chance England make the final of this competition and Southgate’s apologists once again fail to acknowledge that this is an unbelievably talented group of players blessed with the kindest of draws possible Just wish a PL club would be daft enough to make the glakey get a job offer

Now he just needs to understand the other bit - the one where other players move in to cover that position

I’m going 85th

I mean, Southgate has served his purpose by getting a lucky draw - can’t we sack him now?

Changes formation, yet fails to fix exactly what the issue was in the first place - Foden and Bellingham being incorrectly utilised, Trippier being unsuited to the left. He’s got Saka as a RWB, but not Gordon as a LWB? The man is conservative to the point of dangerous

Glad a stutter run up misses

Hate this shite more than owt else. Total nonsense.

The refs have to stop these pens. There’s no way he continued his momentum

Is it possible to draw a penalty shootout? edit: I know it isn’t, but if ever I’d bet one ended in a draw …

The misery ends

Worked for George Weah. Not sure Ronaldo could convince many that he gives a shite about anyone but himself. In fact, fuck it - he’s perfect for current politics

I get the feeling that his inability to accept that he’s done as a top footballer might just push him over the edge
