Fletchers Saucy Manbun Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 Timid from England, mad lack of energy. Can see Foden getting replaced by Gordon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 If Bellingham does not play or is off song, then England are a very average team. They need to wrap him in cotton wool if they have any chance of progressing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Kite Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 Ignoring the total guesswork about who will win the tournament after one game and folk already starting to dig the foundations for The Jude Bellingham National Monument, not much else you can do. Southgate playing his best technical players, clean sheet, clever/conning centre forward taking pressure off the team, timely use of subs and a win. Take the points, ignore the hype and move on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BucksburnDandy Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 Dull as dishwater stuff from England again. For an unarguably very talented group of players, they play with an inferiority complex of an average middling nation. And ultimately that will be their undoing as it has been the last three tournaments - going into their shells and essentially shitting themselves when they play their first good opponent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boring Bob Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 England are certainly going to have a few bruises in the morning! Orsato let the game flow unlike the referees in Scotland. A refereeing master class from the best referee in the world. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 Surely the Nigels win a tournament soon with that squad and a better manager. The players always look like they’re being reigned in by a conservative manager. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theroadlesstravelled Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 (edited) You win games with great forwards, you win tournaments with great defenders. I heard that once. I'd like to think it applies to England, in every major tournament they play. Edited June 16 by Theroadlesstravelled 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a load of Porches jobbing around a racetrack at 30mph in strict formation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groundhopping Adventures Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 England have got to the finals of 2 tournaments ever. They hosted both of them. They'll lose to the first decent team they play here 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The players always look like they’re being reigned in by a conservative manager. I think he's conservative because he knows their defence isn't good enough. A better team than Serbia would have taken about three off them tonight. I think he's made an error in not dropping Bellingham back to play next to Rice. He's got loads of people who can do Bellingham's role well, but nobody who's good next to Rice. Makes Rice a weaker part of the team, weakens the midfield, and exacerbates the issue of no left back and no established centre half pairing. Bellingham playing deeper would give them better balance. You get knocked out of tournaments due to weaknesses. That team has glaring weaknesses. It's a common thing to focus on the good players they have, but their deficiences are obvious. They only win this competition with a lot of luck and avoiding the serious teams. Other than that, they don't have enough about them.
