andycap Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 Denmark look the better team as Serbia did. We aren't a balanced team they come down our left and we have no cover. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 Got very little faith in Southgate to have the nous and/or bollocks to sort this. He needs to both figure this wank out and have the bottle to upset a few of his favourite lads and start addressing the obvious issues. He's way too loyal and we're way to predictable, these are not new problems we're seeing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gawalls Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 Mouthgate with his whole “with me bring here four times as a player and four as a manager I’ve learned how to adapt”. For a manager whose learned to adapt he doesn’t change much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
christ Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 Generally defend Southgate, but TAA in midfield is one of the most baffling decisions I’ve seen an England manager make. It reminds me of posters on this place insisting we bung a ball playing centre half in midfield. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfcastle Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 Not being an England fan I quite enjoyed that, seeing an ordinary Denmark more than matching them shouldn't happen, but there you are. Not even saying they wont win the game or tournament but it wont be done in anything like the manner it should be - more Denmark and Greece and France and Spain Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeepShow4life Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 Southgates always been an awful manager, crazy how this is the third tournament we have wasted with him. Only reason we got so far in the last two was because of favourable draws. Everytime we come up against a good team under him we lose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erikse Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 1 minute ago, Bizza said: Same old shit. Start well, score, sit back, concede. We have some fantastic attacking talent in this squad and Southgate's cowardice is hamstringing it. How does he keep playing him in midfield? Is he not watching the games?

Yorkie Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 The tendency to sit back is so inherent now, like. The manager isn't instructing them to sit on the 18 yard line the moment we go ahead, but it points to a team that isn't well drilled. Once they have the lead they just default to defending cos they don't actually know what to do next. Really poor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sifu Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 Honestly think that Foden being inside a lot more is down to him doing so himself rather than instruction. The times we've had the ball inside and Foden's got it, it's only really been Tripps out on his own on the left, Bellingham has half heartedly gone out to the left wing to cover.

leffe186 Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 Look at that replay of the pressing that worked. Kane sits in and everyone else presses - Rice, Bellingham, Saka. It can work if you have a proper CM alongside Rice so one or other of them can go past Kane, and if you have a proper LW who can reduce the chance of an out ball on that side. We’re fucking about talking about “this is what we need more of” etc. If you don’t change the team you don’t get more of it. You can’t. Change the fucking team.
