The biggest issue has not been adapting to Serbia's tactical changed at HT. They pushed up higher, pressed with more intensity and England didnt do anything to adapt to it

I know everyone will be talking about Southgate and tactics, but the players have to take a lot of responsibility.

Surely Saka doesn't need Southgate to give him instructions on how to beat his man now that he's marking tighter etc.?

So many of our players have lost their individual battles, particularly in the second half.

Yeah i get that but hes got to be telling kane to stay high, tell foden n sake to hold their width in the 2nd half and if its not working then make changes earlier
 
Hard work but plenty of teams grow into a tournament. The Italians are famed for it, and lets not forget Argentina lost their opener in the World Cup.

Long way to go tbh, Argentina lost their opening game of the world cup n looked shocking - then won the lot

Its 1 game, 3 points and plenty learnings for them

Agree but we have been terrible for a while. Iceland and tonight, look way way off.

Loo the worse out of all big teams played so far

Take that. Not a great second half but i'd also say that Serbia didn't exactly get any real chances. Do not like that left side partnership at all though, if Shaw is fit he has to play.

Onto the next.
