Round of 16 | England vs Slovakia | Spain vs Georgia

5-4 shots
77-23 possession
4-0 corners

Unlucky England.
 
This is just not true.

He has loads of defenders, even up to this game. Including himself and the FA, which is even worse.
Southgate and the FA? Step into any pub, read a thread on here and you'll get a decent idea as to how people see Southgate.
 
Mainoo looks a significantly better player at this level than Declan Rice. Not sure Declan Rice suits international football as a deep midfielder in a team that's supposed to win games.
 
Most of our players look as though they’re still trying to figure out what the purpose of this sport is.
 
Yeah he's probably the most protected manager in history. Certainly the most protected England manager.

Absolutely.

Also, Shearer was right what he said about Kane. Between the lines of course. Look at that jump there, then the attempt...feck me, he doesn't even know where the track is, let alone actually being at the race.
 
You say that but Rice follows the ball everywhere constantly asking for it, and it's not helping build up at all.

Mainoo has been brighter than most players for England so far.

He has been good the few times he's had the ball, but not good enough without it. Last 5 was much better though, hopefully it continues. The quality is there
 
Didn't we have an unfit Kane plodding around in the last competition? is he untouchable?
 
Trippier is so past it. And horrid on the left.

Honestly England's only chance here is to push Saka to left back given Southgate refused to bring any left back in.
 
Can you imagine Southgate inspiring half time talk? Players need to kick him out and sort this out themselves
 
Mainoo been crap tbf. He is nowhere to be found. He needs to do make himself available

He made himself available so many times in the first 15-20 mins and the back 4 plus Foden and Saka just kept ignoring him. He seemed to lose enthusiasm for it after that for a while but brightened up again in the last 5 minutes of the half.
 
So is Mainoo going to be subbed at half time for Gallagher or Alexander-Arnold despite being our best player by magnitudes?
 
Disappointing 1st half and on the cusp of going out. Mainoo barring the silly yellow has been our best player today.
 
Great when the ball is magnetised to finding Trippier who is absolutely shite.
 
At least Kobbie is trying things everytime he’s on the ball. Half the team are playing like we’re 4-0 up seeing the game out…
