Lucky to be level at the break. Poor half
Day 7 | Slovenia vs Serbia | Denmark vs England | Spain vs Italy

- Start date
Isn’t Ray Hudson a Geordie too? Makes sense now.
England resorting to solo runs from their own half because there’s no midfield matrix to play through.
Who could have seen this coming?
Yeah what a surprise, its exactly the same as the last match, thats whats so bleeding painful about this. If all us fans of different clubs can spot the problems, why can't the management team.
So much talent, so little clue.
England is just hurting my eyes it's so bad. I want to know why Southgate is so fecking stubborn.
Southgate's England are so tactically inept it's unbelievable, it makes ETH look like Pep!
What exactly does Trent offer in midfield?! Foden a completely different player to the one at city.
I would LOVE to see the half time team talk from Gareth.
Was hoping the fourth official would hold up the board saying something beginning with a minus.
This football from England is physically painful to watch. And that's after watching all of our season.
England left side is dead, should play Gordon there. Or take Grealish/Rashy to tourney.
Foden has been stung by all the criticism of him never doing anything in an England shirt and has clearly decided to combat that by taking countless shite stupid shots from all over the pitch.
Two back-to-back England halves of pretty underwhelming football, considering the talent on the field.
There's zero cohesion in this England team. Headless chickens in attack and defence. They can't play as a unit at all. No idea where to run, taking up each other's space. It's a shambles. Southgate is a fecking fraud.
Mainoo on
Trent Off

Bellingham is a very good player but I feel like he is a tactical problem with England's winger who are not the crossing type. His link up play in small spaces isn't optimal
Why is Shearer shouting like someone is spamming him with flashbangs
Have to wonder how much Southgate is sticking to playing Bellingham, Foden and Trent out of position to show how brilliant he is. England have the players to dominate the game with just sticking to the obvious rather than being overly smart.
- Zero pace in this team.
- Shoehorning a RB into midfield because he's good (overrated) on the ball.
- Playing two tens with a striker who comes deep.
It's just dumb.

And to say we was linked with him replacing ETH
We’d all die with boredom next season if that happenedEngland don't look fit
Completely inexplicable how England collapsed after we gifted them the lead. Just gave away all initiative.
Still get the sense that England will win in the end, but I'm pleasantly surprised at the attitude shown by Denmark.

He's trying to reach Raoul Moat
England are out numbered centrally 4v3 when denmark has the ball and TAA isn't a mid so he's not tactically sound enough to recognize when and where to shift
Sloppy, boring and negative. Typical Southgate sludge.
I just can't...
Has to be some changes soon after half time though, this clearly is NOT working.
It’s like a collection of random footballers were put in a team at random
He'll play for a draw. So Gallagher's coming on of course.
He could have picked a player for balance. Burn, Doughty, Colwill, Henry or Mitchell etc.
Instead he chose to bring an injured Luke Shaw.
It's embarrassing for Southgate to make this excellent set of individuals look like they've never played football before.
"Well done lads, keep it up"
Piss poor. I think the players have actually had enough of Southgate.
Trent's made more backwards passes in this game than the past year and looks absolutely lost.
Can't wait to end this tournament so they can feck this shite manager off.

Because teams don't teach young players basics of being a central midfielder.
People have laughed at me for saying that a player like McTominay is no worse than Rice. I don't know how a manager like Southgate can play a right back as central midfielder. And someone in managment needs to have a word with Bellingham that he has not conquered the world. Still just a talent.
Can Southgate be sacked for Tuchel, we may have a chance
It's just incredible how shit England are.
Abysmal. No midfield and relying on mistakes or Foden dribbling past 3 players. We are lucky to be level.
Like a punch-drunk Scotsman.
Micah talked sense.
Think he’s tried 3 Hollywood long balls, none have worked.
I’d move Foden to the 10. Push Jude to MF with Rice, bring in Eze, Gordon or Palmer for TAA and have them play on the left.
