only caught the last 25 minutes what a **** way to start the day you would have thought with all the bloody time spent passing back to the keeper we would have gotten good at it by now hardly saw the danish keeper touch the ball ive booked the day of the final off just in case looks like i could be working unless things improve
One of the most comprehensive 1-0 games you're ever likely to see..... 4 or 5-0 would have been a more accurate scoreline.....
Southgate's comment "We don't have a natural replacement for Kalvin Philips" shows his total paucity of tactical nous. If that's the summit of his thought processes we're doomed. Denmark with a less talented squad played a superb pressing game and outplayed us for much of the game. Watch some of the 'minnows' of this tournament play with an attacking freedom and slickness of passing and movement that makes our team look pedestrian. I'll say it yet again Southgate is the problem...
I thought Eze did ok considering Southate went route 1 soon after he made those 3 subs. He got in a good pass at the death and a decent pass earlier on.
If I hear one more of our commentators say " he gave the keeper the eyes" How the fu*k can he see where the striker was looking from 60 yards away. Townsend shut the **** up.
I read a stat that said that in Southgate’s tenure England had played teams that were ranked in the Top 10 in the World on 24 occasions and had won ….. 4 times
We have a striker that can't go past anyone and drops so deep he's practically a midfielder. A defenders dream, just let him go. We have, arguably our 3rd/4th choice right back, playing at left back. We play 2 holding midfielders. The top premier league English goal scorer sat on the bench and we bring Connor Gallagher on ffs.
I hate to say it because I love Eze for obvious reasons but I thought he looked like a rabbit caught in the headlights when he came on. Seemed completely off the pace and lacked energy and awareness. Though it's no doubt Southgate's fault for filling his head with guff before he came on.
The 3 that came on at the same time got just over 20 minutes and the last 10 at least Pickford was going pure Route 1. Difficult for them to make much impact but I thought Eze did more than Bowen or Watkins. I hope Southgate goes 4 3 3 for Slovenia hopefully with Shaw at LB, Wharton, Bellingham, and Eze as the 6 8 and 10, and 2 proper wide men each side of Kane, Saka and Gordon I guess.
