RodneyCisse Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 I know Rice is the best thing since sliced bread but does he do anything other than play the pass back. So many times he could have spun his man and we’d have been open, am I just too used to Bruno? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nine Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 (edited) Disappointing overall. USA arnt good, plan A team who have nothing when they gas. Reminded me a lot of the Scotland game in the euros. We clearly let them play first half and expected them to tire around the hour mark but we just were not there tonight enough to win this. All about the Wales game for me, if it’s more of what we saw tonight and we won’t go far. Gotta feeling we step it up though.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 The players just sound like they knew a draw was basically enough to qualify. With that in their mind it’s going to be hard to press intensely and give your all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonas Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 A little cold water on the customary ridiculous reaction to one win against a poor team after England being poor themselves for a whole year probably wont hurt in the long run. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiLvOR Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Southgate is petrified of losing, and in games like this, you can see it seep into the players. Nobody was willing to do anything, really. Grealish as usual looked okay, at least trying to be positive. Bringing on Henderson was just awful. As we've all said, Foden should have been on at some point, and Mount off. Sterling shouldn't start the next match either. You'd imagine Southgate will be delighted we didn't lose.

Doesn't matter, our esteemed number 9 spent most of tonight stood behind him anyway so the through ball would have been a waste. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dandy Man Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 (edited) Still seen little to convince me that Rice is not a luxury version of Scott Parker, pads the stats with inconsequential sideways passes Edited November 25, 2022 by Dandy Man Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 The US front 6 were great mind, they knew exactly what they had to do and executed it perfectly. They were a threat on the break and opened England up several times and they deserve credit tonight. But what's the point in qualifying if that's how you're going to approach and play games? Southgate is dripping negativity into this side, he's clearly told them that a point is good and totally acceptable tonight and they 100% played like it. England have a fantastic squad out there but the weakest link is in the dug-out imo and I think the squad is papering over the managerial cracks and not vice versa.

Disco Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 What an awful game. America absolutely toothless and England tossing in their standard piss poor group game performance but never really looking like conceding. Geet loads of running in straight lines though.

Ste Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Obviously don’t have any basis for this, but I feel like something has shifted in the group, the positivity isn’t there, the back patting comaraderie seems all but gone. They don’t run for each other, they play each other into trouble at times and it feels contrived. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was nothing good about anything I just witnessed. This is a horse shit take. The U.S. were not dross. Their midfield played well. Some real bad takes here in general.
