It has been a bit shit for the last ten minutes or so.
Semi-Finals: Italy vs Spain | England vs Denmark
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Two DMs is obvious overkill here. Rice ineffective holding because of Denmark’s setup and Philips running around needlessly high up the pitch. Give Mount, Philips role and put in Sancho.
Make no mistake, Southgate is playing 5 at the back.
You’ve not quite figured out what the newbie system is yet have you?
They haven’t been pressed at all.
Think Rice and Phillips would really struggle against the Italy trio. Pretty sloppy last ten minutes.
Rice and Philipps have been terrible so far.
Poor from Mount there.
Wonder when Shaw will take the blame.

Passing and the control gone to shit the last 5 minutes for England
Rice/Phillips are rank.
Losing the ball way too cheaply in midfield
Really poor few minutes from England, technically speaking.
In the last game, Mount got an assist (for Henderson's goal) and a couple of people praised Shaw. Hilarity followed.
Ahhh if I’d seen this I’d have tagged you above
I expect him to pick the pockets better, he is a hard worker, but so far offers nothing in attack. Grealish would be much better in such a game, where a team sits back and counter-attacks.
Always was. Having Rice allows him to save face and claim it's a back 4.
Getting sloppy in the middle…
Pickford’s throw changed the game a bit. Denmark have grown into it since then and England struggling a bit in possession.
I see what you did there. I approve.
Rice is way too overrated.. hopefully we will stay away from him
We've been a bit shit after the fast start.
Easy to mistake, thoughHe's trying to impress @duffer into giving him some attention.
The things a newbie will do for a like eh.
*edit*
Scratch that. He's not a newbie after all
It’s painful how much technical ability is sitting on the bench.
Is Haaland injured or something?

Quality of football is leagues below what we witnessed last night.
Not sure but good shout. Seemed like he didn't want to mention Solskjaer's name.
It's not cagey, it's just a bit boring.
Rice + Phillips’ true ability actually being exposed with a bit of pressing.
Yeah, if they win this game then they will struggle against Italian midfield. They play with high intensity and as a team.
I don't know how it works mate. I was promoted before it was introduced.
Who did you perform on to get your final like.

Compared to yesterday's game this is as bad as expected.
Being overun in midfield.
Swap mount for henderson to shore it up, push the wingbacks up to feed the front three.

Why have we turned into long ball FC?

Respect.
Watching England is like watching United. Good for 10 minutes, bad for the next 15. No in between.
Because they're rattled that Denmark won't let them walk through the game.
