Group C: 1. England, 2. Denmark, 3. Slovenia (Q), 4. Serbia


Recommended Posts

Serbia are an excellent side with excellent players. They turned up the second half yet England never looked in too much trouble.

 

This game will stand to England after the group stages, seeing out games when things aren't going so well isn't a given for any side.

Shocking game management from Southgate. He's out of his depth.

How was it shocking game management? The subs changed the game and we weren't under any real pressure at any point. They had a lot of possession cos we were sloppy but created next to fuck all.

Commentator has mentioned we’ve got Pickford to thank for that.. really? Aye we were poor second half but one shot outside the box and we’ve got Pickford to thank?

 

Guehi good. Trips was decent. Saka and Bellingham were class. Loads to fix for Southgate going into the next game.

Such a strange comment from him. Can only remember Pickford making one save, one that you’d expect any keeper at that level to make.

100%. They didn't expect us to come out and sit deep and defend :lol: like reverse psychology.

England's biggest advantage is that a lot of these teams show them way too much respect.

 

Play way too defensively to start and don't show enough initiative.

 

As soon as teams go more attacking this England team starts to panic.

TAA did assist the goal. But harsh there I reckon. 6 at least.

 

Edit: Except it was Saka. As has been pointed out. 🤣

Foden should be dropped after that performance. He was terrible and offered no help to Trippier.

 

He won't though, we will play the exact same 11. :lol:

 

Expand  

Rewind a few years and the clamour was for Foden to be in the team and the criticism was that Southgate wouldn't drop Rashford or Sterling. See also, Jack Grealish.

They were more or less even on shots and possession, more touches in our box etc. A better team would've taken the chances and then some. Not terrible tonight but just not something we'll win the tournament with in my opinion.
