Didn’t we get worse in the second half against Serbia? Southgate has picked the same side, making the same subs and it’s following the same script so far.

Took another 53 minutes of crap before playing an actual midfield
At least with Gallagher we'll have a functioning midfield. Albeit, a crappy one.
No. Although he’s having a really bad game overall today. Nothing is coming off.
Saka just isn't that good.
Great effort from Foden. That's unlucky.
Unlucky
Saka with an impressive series of rolls
Oh unlucky.
Gordon should come on for pace and ollie Watkins for kane.
Good effort from Foden
England hit the post.
Ooof. Playing with fire now.
So we need a player who can help control midfield and we get a championship level headless chicken instead.
better from foden
Good effort
Southgate 
Yep, if you want him to work in cm that’s literally the only way it would work and even then you need those back line penetrating runners (who Southgate left behind or on the bench) . He could easily play right back in this team because we don’t get that exposed. But Kyle Walker will be playing rb for England until his 40’s…
Are you going to throw shade at everyone?Gallagher is such a Southgate type of player
Foden should be playing 10, he’s going to be wasted for England at this rate.
Good god, if Southgate ever become our manager I...I think I might just....I can't even say it.
Gallagher moving around . Makes a change.
A lot of our younger players give me that vibe. Modern players are coddled by parents a lot.
Am I the only one sick of hearing about TAA? When its obvious half the reason he's hated here is because of the club he plays for. Mainoo is very talented and showed but in a lot of games was hardly earth shattering. The problem is Southgate's overall poor tactics, he'd play this shit even if you gave him the Brazil of 2002.
Said this against Serbia…and I’ll repeat
You’ve got a choice to make when your team is coming under a bit of pressure. You either get some legs on. A runner who will harass the opponent (Gallagher) or a ball player who can actually retain possession and be progressive (Mainoo)
its decisions like this that drive me crazy
Gallagher is actually a good sub.
Højberg ate Trent’s lunch and took his girlfriend too.
Kasper is a couple of cheeseburgers away from looking like Neville Southall.
Christiansen and Hojberg are doing wellAre you going to throw shade at everyone?
Have you watched the games so far? It isn’t even that Mainoo should be playing, it’s that any of the other midfielders should be ahead of TAA in the middle.
The fact Southgate thinks he should be first choice is insane, he shouldn’t even be an option in the centre.
Damsgaard hasn't scored a goal for club or country, since his freekick against England in the last Euros
Goal saved by Gallagher there.
Was a nice effort from Foden.
Glad to see Trent is off, cannot get into the squad as a RB but magically makes it in as a CM in Southgate's eyes.

If that was Trent in for Gallagher we would've conceded.
Southgate is the weakest link shoulda gone after the World Cup
He would turn even brazil '82 to shit!
Great interception by Gallagher. Most likely saved our ass.
Sure, but so would Mainoo and he's actually useful in build up
Foden at least is having some decent moments this match.
Gallagher at least will have some positional strength, may help to keep the ball when we are pressed rather than Rice having to do basically 2 peoples job.
