Day 3 | Poland vs Netherlands | Slovenia vs Denmark | Serbia vs England

Hopefully that experiment is over. He's not a midfielder, and shouldn't be played there just because hes not good enough as a right back either.
 
Do other nations not do the same or something? I've always found it weird when people complain about an English channel praising the England team during tournaments.
What do you think the first B in BBC stands for?
 
I genuinely wouldn’t have even taken Gallagher, but I could have told you before the game that’s the sub that Southgate would have made.
 
Can’t believe how bad we are with the talent we’ve got
Another group wasted by Southgate
England are disappointing again. Whenever I watch them it feels like a team playing with the handbrake on.
Southgate just doesn’t have it in him to go for a team/dictate
England's shape and balance in the team is all wrong
He picks names before the best XI

Be interested to see how many pro Southgate posts there were two weeks ago. People forget how shite Southgate is
 
I hope that's the Trent in midfield experiment over. No issue with Southgate giving it a go but if he's starting their every game, he'll cause us problems.
He's had 2 years to give it a go.
 
Trent is a brilliant player but there is a difference between a full back who moves into central areas and a midfielder.

Doesn't always translate.
 
England are going nowhere in this tournament. Yes we have some great players but we don’t a game plan because Southgate is clueless tactically and relies on vibes and individual brilliance.
 
Definitely not many, but surely at least Kane, Bellingham, Rice and Walker, right?

Rice isn’t that great imo. Lots of energy and covers space but his passing is very limited.

How good is this Serbia team to be keeping up this well with a generational England side? Do we have to consider them second in line when it comes to tournament favourites now?

Tbf, Serbia have a solid squad on paper. Many players that play/have played at very high levels of the game.

So much talent but England can't keep the ball at the moment.

England’s midfield doesn’t have the personnel to really dictate the flow and tempo in MF. Just and observation
 
Serbia have decent technical midfielders who can pass the ball around when allowed to. England's approach this half has been baffling

I'm really struggling with how we've played this 2nd half. It's obviously needed changes for the last 15 minutes. Against any quality team we'd have conceded in that time.
