Nobody Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Relegated with a game to go, and no goals scored aside from penalties is pretty atrocious mind. Not looking good ahead of the WC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Abysmal Nations League performance, but Southgate has earned a crack at this World Cup. It will most likely be his last tournament regardless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, that's probably fair. Chisea and Verratti too when fit. Not sure about Donnarumma though, think he's been pretty poor since he left Milan and always got a massive error in him.

cubaricho Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Quote England are one of only two nations yet to score a non-penalty goal in the 2022-23 Nations League... along with San Marino. Incidentally that is who England's last competitive goal from open play was against. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

huss9 Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 (edited) playing players that are out of form. playing players who arent match fit due to lack of game time for their clubs. playing players out of position. and just being fucking negative in general. should have got rid after that abomination of a managerial performance in the euros final.

Colos Short and Curlies Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Said at the time he should have gone after the Euros. not because he deserved to be sacked but more that he wouldn’t be able to raise the team again. Like losing the play off final, it’s hard to go again. Players needed a change of voice as well. we’ll get out of the group but quarters max in the WC then he will bow out.

St. Maximin Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 I don’t like this idea Southgate fluked his way through major tournaments, but you can’t mention his record without acknowledging the opposition. We clearly did get favourable runs in both 2018 and 2020 and every win we had you’d expect on paper, especially as we were virtually the home team in the Euros. Losing to Croatia in 2018 I’m not too disappointed by as they had an insanely good midfield, but that 2020 final at Wembley was really disappointing and Southgate should rightly get criticism for that. Also for balance I really like what he’s done for the team off the pitch if nothing else - it’s pretty clear he’s had a lot of positive influences on the squad and the fans and their value can’t be underestimated for big tournaments. I just think tactically he’s really poor and as such he’s got a ceiling and won’t take us further. However, I would happily be proven wrong and hope we’ve lowered expectations so much, that it might help the team somehow go on and win the World Cup… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might seem 100% meaningless to big countries like England but it's pretty important to smaller nations who don't automatically qualify to every tournament.
