England - Lee Carsley Takes The Reins

[joey_big_nose]

Energy good, pressing good, running off the ball good, pushing up the pitch good.

Unfortunately probably the worst passing performance in a long long time.

Surely have to see Wharton or at least Mainoo second half?

Kane and Bellingham have both been absolute passengers.

This is fear football. Players frightened of making a mistake and taking the easy way out. It’s been evident for a while. A good manager would shake them out of it.

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

Walking football again. Player stood still passes to another player stood still. I’m sick of saying it.

[ABBEY]

Players we have it should be keegan style .. sack this big nosed bore freak at ht.

 

[Upside Down]

England look absolutely gash.

No excuse for them not hammering these teams.

Southgate is absolutely not good enough to be the manager of the national team. He's an average League One manager at the absolute best.

It’s very Mowbray-esque in the way we keep possession without ever moving forwards. It’s very safe football.

Abject again already. Sooner we’re out the better. Can all stop pretending we’re in with a shout of winning and get on with enjoying rest of the tournament cricket /summer.

These are top class players hamstrung by a dreadful coach.  Like having a ferrari driven by a grandmother

I think Southgate is concerned that if he brings Adam on he will show up his team mates in the passing and creativity departments.

Adam is too gifted for Southgate.

[AspRover]

Well it turns out TAA and Gallagher are not Kalvin Phillips, so we'll see if Mainoo is Kalvin Phillips. 

If not, it's uncertain where Southgate will turn next.

kalvin phillips probably

[RTM08]

To be fair to Mainoo, he's been leagues ahead of Gallagher and Trent so far.

[AspRover]

My criticism is not really aimed at the players, I have no issues with Mainoo and hope he will go on to be a very good player for England. 

[simongarnerisgod]
