They were lucky on both games... you could give a tea lady a pen and paper in this country and they'd pick a better 11 and get more motivation out of the players..... the side is a mirror image of his personality.... dull.
He said gareth aint telling them to sit back, that it's tournament football and we won't win games 3 or 4 nil, a point is good, it was about game management, and we're top of the group. i.e. the usual. Although the comment about not winning 3 or 4 nil speaks volumes as that's defo the manager. And there's no way they're not being told to sit back, that's bullshit.
It's just boring mate and it's been going on for a decade... he is unbelievably arrogant aswell as boring... reinventing players like he knows better than everyone that's coached them before.
I've not mocked them for being 'legitimately good' ... I've argued that's the case from the outset ... ... that most of them are just good ...not great ... took you a while, but we'll done for getting there eventually
Yeh the depth is great in most positions. He's choosing to set up the way we are. Trent is an impact sub, not a starter.
The lanky string of scarecrow looking piss will tell us he's pleased with many aspects of the performance shortly.
Unbelievable. It’s a blatant order from Southgate that we squeeze teams, keep the game tight and nick a goal. We’ve been doing it for years under him.
I've never said he was brilliant. He's basically a centre back playing in midfield, he only passes it sideways or backwards and gets caught on the ball.
