Knowing when to dispose of England managers has never been the FA’s forte. This guys times up, we’ll be suffering for some time yet before the penny drops unfortunately.

He won't go until he fails at a tournament.

In a weird way we'd have been better off crashing out at the group stage in 2018

Appeared to me that they did everything possible not to pass the ball to Jack. 

Absolute Southgate arse licking words removed. 

Gameplan was never to pass the ball into midfield. Before it after Jack.

Typical British Bruceball mentality. Pass the ball around the back, draw them out (never works) hit the channels, hit them out wide, run quick.

Horrific. Another golden generation wasted under this melt.

As for grealish... Him and Mount summed up the no plan or identity comment 

Where did he play? He seemed to be predominantly in the middle where Southgate says he doesn't rate him, then he was on the right where he never plays, then a tiny bit on the left 

Clueless 

When he was coming on Sterling was playing on the right.

When he came on Sterling was moved over to the left to accommodate Jack playing on the right wing, a position I have never seen him play.

 

He did seem to then go more central but there didn't seem to be any proper formation by then. Mason Mount seemed to have been pushed back to DM at that point. Because of course they needed more support back there

Southgate in 90mins

Starts dier on left side of a 3 with no left foot , Ming's in squad that would really have looked great playing in that position

Starts a right back at left wing back , who basically looks lost for 90mins

Phillips is asked to play in a two with rice who has zero creativity

Subs off the right back and puts a left back to play right back , whilst still having a right back completely lost playing left back

When is the Belgium vs England game? A good hammering might help him out

Phillips should be hauled off at half time and not play again until he is proven in the top flight. As this is Southgate expect him to play the 90

7 interceptions/tackles alone

England team total: 7

Some of you are so bitter here its mental

Thought he had a good game. Just shouldn't have been playing with Rice at all. Wrong setup for Phillips. Thought Phillips was better than Rice tbf..

Phillips is a good player, got no problem with him playing for England tbh.

The bitterness stems from Southgate saying Jack couldn't play until he was proven at PL level, but that's not Phillips's fault.

I do struggle to understand why we need 2 or 3 DMs against such mismatched opposition. What is Southgate even thinking there? You wouldn't do that at any level of football.
