Rafalove Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Don’t rate Southgate. Problem is that English managers are terrible. Bobby Robson was the last one you would describe as being world class. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 What do folk think of Mason Mount? Seems to be a favourite of Lampard and Southgate Really shouldn't be used in wide positions IMO. Far better as an attacking midfielder through the middle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 The lineups and style of football the last two games have reminded me why I rarely watch England outside of tournaments. So shit to watch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor Zaius Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Southgate has one way of playing. Try and control the game, grow into it and try and knick something something. It worked against Belgium and is suited against teams that will have a go at us but we're absolutely shit against lesser but organised sides. Totally unable to break them down. That Denmark team will have played together for years. Teams that have less of a talent pool are often fairly organised and we simply cannot break them down. Did he learn nothing from the Croatia semi final? This was the exact type of game to put a bit of faith in your creative players but he simply wont do it. It made sense to go conservative against Belgium but at home against Denmark stick Grealish in there ffs. Give Sancho a go from the start. Trust your flair players. Try something more expansive, something that isnt 532 with three rigfht backs on the pitch. Southgate is too one dimensional, inflexible and unable to play any other way seemingly. Doesnt bode well.

toon25 Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 The new formation is a strange decision when there so much quality in the wide forward positions. Sancho/Rashford/Sterling are all better with a bit more space to run into Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Our forward players are suffering from poor defensive choices. Maguire, Dier, Walker as CB, 2 def midfielders, Rice, Pickford... He gets it so wrong so often. Creativity is awful. Makes it very hard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 I only saw the second half, but I though we were a bit unlucky, despite being a man down. We created a few chances but didn't have much luck. Of the newcomers, I thought Coady, Phillips and James did well. Kane did a good job up front as well.

Happinesstan Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Southgate is obviously not the ideal manager, but I think it's also possible that most of our players are overrated. I'd say Harry Kane warrants his acclaim, Sterling maybe. However for the most part, these players are made to look far better by their foreign teammates (or the guidance from their foreign managers) in their respective club teams. For example Sancho regularly gets spoken about like he's Suarez or Messi, but do many actually watch the Bundesliga or do we just believe the hype? We regularly hear about Trent being one of the best right backs in the world, maybe in the future he can be but he's young, prone to errors and not a very good defender. We see all of these names in the squad and expect to see a world class team, I feel like they're just not as good as what we think. All just another element of our bullshit media. Too many sports journalists desperate to make a name for their talentless selves, on the back of others. That's the media as a whole, and you can see why it's an attractive. Just look at that cunt Schofield. Do you think the footballer/yoga practitioner got paid more for the work they put into developing their skills than Schofield did for smiling into his fucking webcam?

St1pe Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Ryder seems to be making a think about Wilson and Darlow not getting an England call-up. I sort of see the Wilson argument with Ings injured and Greenwood having a poor start. He’s really stretching with Darlow. Selfishly, I’m not that arsed about Wilson not getting in. He’d be behind Kane, DCL, and Rashford and it’s just a massive injury risk for a player we have no capable backup of. I’d love to see a Newcastle player playing for England again mind.
