The England Team - all the news, views…

[wilsdenrover]

I’d bring on Wharton, Palmer and Gordon and I’d do it now.

Although I wouldn’t have to as I’d have started with all three.

[simongarnerisgod]

got to get bellingham further forwards,he`s the key to creating anything at the moment

I’d wager that Southgate's first change will be Gallagher for Mainoo. 

Criminal how poorly we’re playing under this guy.

Swapping that one position is literally the only thing he knows how to do. And honestly, Mainoo has been fine, I'd prefer Wharton but Mainoo at least wants to move forwards, it's just he has a bunch of statues further up the pitch. 

Foden would be the first one off for me, we could have a national league left winger there and they'd offer more.

100% the change that will happen

Southgate is fucking useless.

[Forever Blue]

Gordon, Watkins and Palmer need to come on. 

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

I didnt believe it could get any worse...

But will Southgate make changes??

[TugaysMarlboro]

Sick of Bellingham trying to gee up the crowd.

We've been collectively dogshit for 3 and a half games, give us something to cheer about first.

This is the 4th game in a row that Sake, Kane and Foden have been ineffective. If he doesn’t do it now he never will

gareth mowbray!!!

[Blow-in]

Slovakia sitting back very early.

[RTM08]

Fourth game in a row where we've made literally zero effort to create chances. I can't begin to think what the actual tactics are.

[DE.]

The usual suspects anonymous. Defensively a shambles as soon as a decent team tries to have a go at us, to the surprise of no one. Special mention to Trippier, Bellingham, Foden and Kane who have all been particularly useless. 

5th best team in the world? Don't make me laugh. Couldn't beat Denmark. Couldn't beat Slovenia. Narrowly scraped past Serbia. Now being embarrassed by Slovakia. Lose this one and Gareth needs to do the honourable thing, much like the manager he replaced, and resign immediately afterwards.

Best England manager since Sir Alf my foot. He isn't a patch on Robson, Venables or Hoddle for a start. Getting a bunch of easy tournament draws and achieving the bare minimum of squeezing past mostly lesser opposition, before inevitably losing to the first good team we come up against, don't impress me much, to paraphrase Shania Twain. 

Russia 2018 and Euro 2020 were huge chances for us to finally win an international tournament. I genuinely think with a progressive, modern manager at the helm we'd have done it. Such a shame. 

We can still win this one, but even if we do scrape through the Swiss will teach us a lesson. Might be for the best if we crash out now. 

 

 

[B16Rover]

What did I do in a life previous to watch rovers all winter and this all summer 

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Just cant explain these limp dick performances against supposedly inferior opposition,nothing seems to change,our players dont look motivated enough

???

[USABlue]

Very very bad.

[jim mk2]

It’s not just the lack of creativity I’ve not seen England so poor in defence for many years. We couldn’t complain if that had been 3-0

Very good post but ‘we’re shit’ would have sufficed.

[Blow-in]

What is the logic of bringin Shaw? 

 

We are at the knockout phase and he has not even made a sub appearance?

Aye, but sometimes you've just got to let it out.

With that done, please Gareth, prove me wrong. 

[joey_big_nose]

Thought we played the best we have going forward but very bad at the back... If its not one its the other it seems.
