Carsley like the last game has got this wrong again. The balance is all wrong, as is the personal. Play players in their right positions would help for a start. Gordon as a centre forward is horrible shout.

Its like it's a prerequisite of an England u21 manager

Had a quick look at the squads

Surprised Portugal pulled silva and inacio out of this cycle, arguably the two highest potential CBs about right now

Edit - along with scalvini who is there for Italy

But of a dull game all in all but still a deserved win.

Israel resorted to cynical fouls and play acting which didn’t help the flow of the game.

Archer did ok after coming on but missed his chance. Plenty of positives for him though and certainly a better option than Maduake. 

one thing that was obvious was how greedy some of our young players are, hanging onto the ball instead of playing the easier/obvious pass or move.

not watched all of this cycle but that was definitely what i saw straight away with Ramsey and always thought it was an experience thing because he'd played more first team football than the others, his releasing of the ball and more importantly timing of his passing was way ahead of everyone else but the others in the team now should be catching him up in terms of PL games or at least have enough under their belt for it to no longer be an excuse

there were games in the qualifiers where madueke and balogun were getting headlines and goals but you watch the build up to that goal and they were taking too many touches in the penalty area due to a little bit of greed and quality of opposition that wont work at a higher level

Some players are so frustrating to watch though - Maduake and Cole Palmer continue to hold onto the ball too long and often fail to find any pass, let alone the obvious one.

Ramsey certainly looks too good for this level. He looks the most polished player out there.
