Even a Kasper brain fart couldn't help us

After watching an hour of this I think Foden & Greenwood definitely made the right decision.

Seriously - I am so happy for Vardy that he's not having to sit on a bench watching this. He definitely made the right decision.

Almost a cock up by kasper there. 

It was a cock up by Kasper

[whoareyaaa]

Tammy Abraham should be starting ahead of this donkey or at least be in with a shout.

 

worst England side for years with this boring yes man at the helm

[UniFox21]

Darren Bent spot on here.

[Dan LCFC]

Complete utter rubbish. Get him gone.

[adam]

The sad thing is were gonna have to put up with shite until southgate fails at a tournament. Depressing.

Phillips well out of his depth

It's weird. It's almost like picking a guy with 0 top flight experience was a bad idea.

I don't want to be too critical because I think Southgate is treating these like pre season friendlies but fvck me that was boring.

Yep, said at the time Vardy was completely right, and he obviously was.

I get the idea of possession football, play the ball about and pull the opposition out of position, but if you're well organised and stay in position it's easy to defend against. Sometimes you just have to take a chance, take a player on, cross the ball in and hope, have a shot and hope for a deflection.Just be a little more direct sometimes.

We wonder why we have no strikers for when Kane drops form, when Southgate gives our best strikers barely any time. 

Time and time again players of a certain age must ask themselves why they bother travelling with England to sit on a bench. 

Belgium have an incredibly talented squad yet manage to rotate. 

[Blue and white]

Kasper is worrying me, he seems to be making amateur mistakes almost every match now.

[Webbo]

Playing Ings wouldn't have made any difference, we barely created a chance.

[Samilktray]

Foden & Greenwood got their end away and didn’t have to be attached to that dross tonight. Fair play to them 

[Legend_in_blue]

Southgate was a loser when he played for England.  Im not the slightest bit surprised he's transferred that mentality across to the managerial side of the game.

 

Bottled it in big tournaments, he's no leader.

[Corky]

Kane is a strange player, a prolific goalscorer, scores some belting goals but really isn't that exciting to watch. When he's off form he looks so ungainly and clunky too.

 

As said above, Vardy did the right thing walking away. Traipsing around Europe to sit on the bench just isn't worth it.

He's coming on now but I totally agree, I'm not sure what point Southgate is trying to prove sometimes. It's as though, unless you're a consummate pro with absolutely zero personality then you're not trusted. Anyone who dares to have any sort of maverick streak in them is sidelined. Why else would you have Kane as captain and keep him on when he's been absolutely appalling for 166 minutes over two games. Why else would you pick Eric ****ing Dier?

 

You don't pick unpredictable, flair players and then you can't break down packed defences. The two things may be linked Gareth.

My heart sinks every time I see Dier in an England shirt.

Sounds like your talking about Leicester

[peterborofox]

Vardy must be laughing. He'd have sat on the bench again last two games for at least 150 mins. 

 

He did the right thing in retiring.

 

Kane is a top player, but so often he goes missing in games or doesn't look match fit. Yet Southgate never drops him. Ridiculous

[dnewty]

Anyone notice that no teams ever approach England for southgate's services ? There's a reason for that.
