Zatman Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Remember England couldnt fit Lampard, Gerrard or Scholes in the same midfield as they couldnt play together Yeah all 3 would walk into this midfield now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MachoFantastico Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Christ, England are just awful to watch. I put most of the blame on Southgate. Really wish we'd be rid of him to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinker Posted September 8, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted September 8, 2020 It's really not good enough, with this squad of players, to perform like that. Don't think any of the players have been able to show their true talent and that's a shame. Southgate has been found out and I don't think even our very own Jack would make much of a difference to this shower of a show. Fwiw Philip's has been my pick of the DM. Let's hope he can change our shape in the second half no matter who is on the pitch if we set up like this we are going to struggle . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Smith said something about how the game was crying out for a ballplayer in the middle, like Grealish. 10 mins later, he references his previous comment and says how Grealish is only viewed as a wide player. Neville referencing every player that could make a difference even those not in the squad but Grealish. It's a campaign now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Denmark getting a bit too much freedom to attack for my liking. I'd get Kane off for Mings to help us keep it tight at the back. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Steve Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 There’s a literal gap between this England team. It’s just so negative and hopeless. And for what?! A glorified friendly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 The performance was ENTIRELY predictable when the team sheet came out, absolutely everybody could see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CardiffGreens Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Hopefully it'll pick up in the second half now I'm not watching the tour highlights or dealing with procrastinating kids and have stuck the radio on. Or I'll have angered the footballing gods and somehow make that 0-0 against Algeria a few years ago look like a thriller... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 At least Phil McNulty is calling this game for what it is: turgid; and calling for Grealish to be involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheAuthority Posted September 8, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted September 8, 2020 Quote Looking at the first half I'd say for half an hour it was a null and void game. There was nothing happening. For the last 15 minutes, Denmark were the better side. England have to change it at half-time. You don't need two anchors in the middle of the park. I'm sorry, you don't. It was very, very poor. England look too rigid - there's no movement. You need creativity and you need to get Jack Grealish or Mason Mount on at half-time. If it was me, I'd get both of them on.

Different players, hence why we tried to sign both Phillips Luiz McGinn is a really good midfield 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not under Gareth he wouldn't. You can only stand on the spot and play the ball the way your facing. Only when you are facing the oppo goal can you proceed to launch it into orbit.
