It’s easy to criticise the tempo in a game like that, but against a team that just parked the bus, we broke them down quite well in the 2nd half and I actually thought a few players did themselves some favours. If that game was 10 years ago we would have lost it, especially in a tournament. Bowen had a mixed game, poor passes in first half but with some better finishing from others, he could have had a couple of assists and a goal (if his shot hadn’t been blocked but his own player). He was involved in a lot of our best moves. Eze did well. Palmer showed how he can fit into the team and I don’t think anyone had a shocker. Not sure it gives Southgate much help sliming things down though. Fridays team selection should give us a good indication though.
this has to be our best squad by a mile in regards to depth in recent times though. Best opportunity to win a tournament.
