A system change is England's only way of going all the way. There is no way he can persist with that dirge.

No matter what formation he starts with, if we go in front he'll revert to a flat back nine like he always does, the bedwetting , useless ****.

[Leicesterpool]

Our record against the Swiss is pretty good but based on performances I think this will be the end of the road for the three lions, I reckon 1-2 Swiss.

[Super_horns]

I doubt the formation will change the way we play.

Probably still be the same style and then being defensive if we take the lead .

[The Quick Brown Fox]

It just seems to be the "new" management style, choose a style and system to play by and stick to it if it's working or not. 

 

 

[Scanchez]

Think this will be the end of our tournament. 

[Fox92]

We will grind another win out of nowhere.

[The Quick Brown Fox]

I can't see how or why England went into this tournament as favourites. What were the bookies smoking?

It's probably based on uk punters putting money on us. We wouldn't have been favourites in France, Spain, Italy etc. 

[whoareyaaa]

Think we will be a lot better as he will hopefully change the formation, add to that the boost we got from the last game, players and fans should be fired up.

Phew!

 

Thanks 🙂

[fazzyfox]

I see a stale bore-fest of a 0-0 and losing on penalties. Sorry .

[Sir Shep]

We will probably shithouse this game, probably relying on the Swiss to fudge their penalties. I can’t wait to be positive about England again. 

[Raj]

It was coming...they are gonna win on penalties  arent they🙄

[Raj]

Wrong thread!!!

Daniele Orsato.

[CosbehFox]

Actually think they might turn out a shift. 
 

think the week’s break is a big factor. Breaks the momentum of Switzerland and gives England a proper rest/training ground time 

[foxfanazer]

Got no interest in injury time bicycle kicks to paper over the cracks. Wanna see a team that looks coached with a game plan and some balls to attack

Well - the style hasn't changed in 6 years, so not sure 5/6 days is gonna magically change the mindset.

 

I'm balls deep in switzerland, gonna lay some pound notes at the bookies tomorrow.

 

The only thing that can hury switzerland is themselves. Slovakia bottled it once they took the lead and stopped offering any threat, if Switzerland don't crumble when they score then it should be easy for them.

 

If we had anything resembling  a decent manager then England with the comfortably better squad would win.

[Aus Fox]

This is the game Phil Foden comes to life, England to finally put in a shift and play to their potential. 
3-0 win and Foden involved in all three goals.
