You have tactics and a style and can clearly see carsley is more attacking than southgate. Southgate was always cautious. Carlsey might not even be manager but it’s clear the style is more watchable 

Let's see how attacking Carsley is when we play a team that can actually hurt us.

Well I guess he will hopefully maintain his style, which is attacking football. Saw this at U21 level and he played enough good teams. Anyway he might not even get a chance regardless let’s see if he even gets the job

The game against Greece is going to be a good test. This greek national team is very good, possibly their best ever in terms of quality on the pitch.

As fair as a comment this is, we wouldn’t have seen this type of performance under Southgate against Finland.

Might lose his general game but will never lose the knack of scoring .

 

Like a certain J.Vardy ?!

Natural goal scorers never ever lose that.

Marked improvement compared to the late Southgate era. Utilising Trent properly, playing an actual winger on the left wing, and looking to be positive and move the ball quickly. Very promising signs.

Yeah and you can actually see tactics and style, much better. Also re the opposition just look at some of our negative performances in the euros against weaker teams. So passive and defensive. Early days and there isn’t really any pressure on him but Carsley seems decent.

I wonder how long Pickford lasts if Carsley does get the job.

 

He already looks like the odd one out after two games, shits the bed whenever he has the ball with anyone near him and he can't just lump it like he's used to doing.

The strike from Kane felt like a Kane we hadn't seen for England for a while, shifting the ball and just leathering it past the keeper.

 

Sadly we also saw straight after that we saw the side if Kane where, with Saka in acres of space decides the best option was to shoot from 25 yards and straight at the defenders arse, and the doing the same again when wildly off balance.

 

An on form Kane is undoubtedly a deadly striker, but his decision making is ****ing horrendous at times.

His decision making has made him one of the deadliest strikers over the past decade - strikers are greedy as are all the great players.... Kane is no different.

There's a time to be greedy and time to not be greedy. Kane scores a lot but he also picks the wrong option a lot too. The first goal is a prime example of where he should be selfish. No need to pass there and even though the shot is low percentage there isn't anything else he can do unless he turns back. The other examples, where he's got a simple pass on and blasts a long range shot at the defenders arse who's stood a foot in front of him, or when he's on the edge of the D off balance and decides to take a shot and fall over instead of off loading the ball or drawing foul, those are bad examples of being selfish and he does that frequently.

This Lee Carsley not signing anthem is so over the top. Carsley is not disrespecting anyway, theres nothing in job description about you must sing "god save the king" 

 

At the end of day not everyone is a royalist and should forced to be. Im proud English and would happily sing the real English anthems if either jurasulem or land of hope and glory with pride. But even myself i pass on god save the king.
