Drag Mount and Sterling 

What I thought too. And find a way of getting the ball to them quickly. 

[Guest StevieLynex]

Dest is a good player

[Tielemans63]

Has Luke Shaw forgotten his inhaler? Getting battered down that side.

[foxes_rule1978]

This is ****ing awful, 

[SecretPro]

Mount is shit. He's always been shit. I just don't get it.

Let go of the reigns was ment to be more let them off the leash tbf. 

 

But it's not just this game. The football is horrid with him. We'd have won atleast one of the last 2 tournaments with almost any other manager. 

 

hmm.. would any other manager have ground out the results to get there though?

He’s slow in any case

Just pass forwards. 

Heresy!  

[David Hankey]

Bit sloppy England.

[coolhandfox]

England are there for the taking slow and lethargic at the moment.

[ARTY_FOX]

The most embarrassing thing is he'll just chuck on more defenders instead of actually trying to win.

I genuinely think Kane is past it too.

Plays too deep for England and Spurs lately.

 

Fine, if you want him to do that, but play him as a 10 and have someone ahead of him.

 

He's almost playing as a false 9. Like Southgate wants more in midfield, because he hasn't got the 2 holding, like in the euros.

When you think of how many young, talented attacking midfielders and forwards England have - watching Spain let theirs loose playing absolute Hollywood football then tuning in to watch this is a really great advert for Southgate getting the job for life 

England could field a team of players that would be competitive in this World Cup. In fact, Brazil Vs England 2nds would be a decent game.
 

Southgate’s tactic here will be to add another holding midfielder.  

[Tuna]

I'm embarassed by how bad England are first half.

[Muzzy_no7]

The game has been exactly the same since the 12th minute and Southgate hasn’t reacted at all.

Yes. The runs were unbelievably favourable. They'd have done it with more style aswell.

gets picked because his dad is the manager.

[st albans fox]

Can’t get the full backs forward 

 

Or are they staying to cover the CB’s ? 
 

[Tielemans63]

Absolutely shocking first half. Haven't done anything well. Really disappointing.

He's clearly scared we'll keep giving away possession again like we did vs Iran by putting the ball in the back of the net. 

[Finnegan]

That U! S! A! drum chant is almost as tacky as "I believe that we will win."

 

At least we can confidently say we won the singing in this group. You know, the bit that matters.

That’s okay. None of us do either.
