LondonBristolian Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 The thing for me is I can forgive mistakes and poor performances but I find it very hard to forgive Southgate doing the same over and over again and expecting things to be different. Our attack has looked unbalanced all tournament, as has our left side. The fact Southgate has persisted with the same players in poor performance after poor performance is unforgivable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WECANDO Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 Ffs. Kane your cente forward. Get forward we don't need you in f...g midfield passing to where you should be. Trippier is getting acres of space on the left. Gets the ball and.....passes backwards. Get Gordon on now. Get Palmer on now. That said Saka isn’t to bad. But Palmer has something. Get Wharton on in midfield who passes forward 99% of the time. More pace is required to get forward quickly. This is the 4th really poor game.

Mr Popodopolous Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 (edited) I'm all for respecting the opposition but this is a side we are playing with two 37 year olds in it. Pekarik at RB and Kucka in midfield. A strong weakness to exploit surely? They WERE good players obviously and a lot of experience but this Slovakia probably isn't as good as the one with Hamsik, Vittek plus those two players in their prime among others. Before we even get into our own failings. Edited June 30 by Mr Popodopolous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
italian dave Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 6 minutes ago, Sir Geoff said: Any chance of a midfielder showing for the ball ? Thats exactly the problem, isn’t it? I don’t mind the sideways, backwards passing across the back if there’s an end objective to it, if it’s waiting patiently for the chance to play that incisive ball forward. But being able to do that depends on midfield movement and on players working to make space. And we just don’t do that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cidercity1987 Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 22 minutes ago, downendcity said: What has been noticeable throughout the tournament is the number of teams that, when they win the ball back, break forward at pace with as few as possible quick positive passes , get numbers forward and thereby stretch the opposition defence and isolate defenders. By comparison, Southgate is using the Bristol City playbook, so when we win the ball back our approach play is laboured, predictable, uses far too many across and back passes, allowing the opposition all the time in the world to regroup, get men behind the ball and back into shape. Other teams seem prepared to take a risk going forward. England's play reflects Southgate, being very much safety first. You have this 17 minutes ago, Super said: Walker and Saka have been shocking.
