The inconvenient actuality
Can only think how unforgettable England would be via Kalvin Phillips in the crew.

Maybe it wasn’t that impoverished?
Cheery to be told I’m incorrect, yet my observe from within the headway is a lot more straightened out via Southgate’s feedbacks than what I have read on twitter and from pundits. There were more positives from this game than the opposite other 2 and we transmitted the sphere a lot much closer, specifically at the prelude of the 2nd fifty percent.
Mainoo did nicely and will possibly prelude the next game, and I correspondingly think a correction in the front four can be rewarding.
We weren’t unforgettable by any kind of standards, yet we have owned three games versus groups that didn’t want to dabble. Pre-tournament I was confident that we can win it, a lot less so currently yet there is still a opportunity we’ll be heading to Berlin in 2 and a fifty percent weeks.
Speedy word as nicely for Guehi. Been unforgettable in with one voice three games and will be playing Winners League football next season.
Andy the hammer (where there’s vigor there’s hope)
…It was, at least much closer in the 2nd fifty percent via a real midfield. Gallagher is the initiative accolade manifested yet Mainoo offered us correction and transmitted us about the bazaar a lot more wholeheartedly. We still seem to be trying to be fluid which is optimistic, and I execute think there was at least an initiative for gain application of the last third of the abandoned side.
Trippier yielded a lovely cross off his correct, after that didn’t execute it over again. Foden was unforgettable yet what have we seized on out via Jude? I don’t think he is taxed, I think he is being ravenous of enfranchisement and seems extensively fed up. We need to be prompting him deeper and imparting him enfranchisement to rushed via the sphere and respite the babbles. Sift at Zidane’s emphasizes real and most it is from deep. It nearly feels advice we have 2 Kanes at the moment.
For with one voice the ‘hubbub’ I execute truly feel for Southgate a tidbit. There’s not a unforgettable decision he can execute about the dearth of abandoned recommends. He did attempt Mitchell a while ago and he was undoubtedly no where foreseeable unforgettable sufficient so I don’t think we can just stick any person there. Pretty advice Wrighty’s Saka solution yet it’s a obstacle Southgate won’t be anxious to snag. Gomez need to have been the go-to volition long ago yet.
I owned my appointments yet Palmer was bloody vibrant, and that enact Gordon fizzed in was enjoyable.
This is tournament football and eventually layer the group is splendor yet you have to truly feel for the followers granting the journey to watch our main defenders knock it about from one side to the opposite other at a snail’s pace. It’s exasperating sufficient shadowing it on ITV.
At the expire of the day, Serbia wasn’t unforgettable yet we won. Denmark was detestable yet that is a tale for the eons of England in 2nd group games. Against Slovenia there were glimpses of the fast-presupposing football we can dabble, we coordinated to layout a couple of odds we need to have racked up from. That capability via a ambition in either fifty percent (Kane from Trippier’s cross and Cole at the expire) would have peeked advice a nicely coordinated game.

Dare at England culminations
Bazaar dabble to F365 for receiving 16 Expire results out on most considerable games, I’m attending have an additional physical effort on England v Slovenia yet aversion I’ll snag care of it.
Gareth Southgate has purely marketed his soul to the devil. Yet an additional tournament where the draw has opened up via Spain, Portugal, Germany and France on the opposite other side of it. Never ever has a side seized on out so tidbit tidbit to gain to gain such potential route via the three capabilities so far.
As for Tuesday night, in what planet was Foden England’s flawless player? So a lot of the sphere yet so tidbit tidbit tangible attained via it. As vibrant as he is for Metropolis a widespread layout for his England occupation. Any type of rushed where you are so purely offside is not the ‘unforgettable rushed’ detailed in player ratings. So a lot went down the unsuitable abandoned it was nearly as if Southgate longed to authenticate a determinant, to the hinderance of England’s most treacherous peeking player, Saka, not receiving nearly sufficient of the sphere.
Regardless of being a United follower this is not anti-Metropolis prejudice, I’m a considerable Grealish follower and we have blown up out for him this tournament. Even if he passes it square (a widespread and unjustified criticism) his adhesive foot and aptitude to retain possession when heightened up on enact on opposite other gamers more enfranchisement and habitually earns England much closer and more cohesively going onward. Surely three of Gordon, Eze, Palmer and Bowen – with one voice faultlessly unproven in a affordable game – plus the validated Grealish would much closer than with one voice four in a crew without him.
On the plus side, an additional game where few odds were showed up. A couple of squandered passes aside yet Guehi was unforgettable over again. He’s been the cut-and-dried Euro 2024 optimistic so far. Low nightclub I interpret.
What is the determinant of bringing on a sub in the 89th minute opposite other than to wastage time?
Hard to interpret whether the 2nd-fifty percent innovation was a feedbacks to being so impoverished in the first fifty percent, Mainoo being unforgettable, or just undoubtedly no longer playing via 10 guys and a headless fowl. Either way surely we have commentated the last of Gallagher, Mainoo was written and comfortable at least. If you don’t want to reaction Bellingham ago to enact on Foden one ultimatum as a 10 he’s possibly the volition.
Kane wasn’t unforgettable over again – a tidbit tidbit much closer tonite – yet when the solution is so impoverished it’s difficult to judge. Still hearkened he’s not totally accommodate.
Every person solicit your prayer floor pods out for Luke Shaw’s (physical and after that match) wellness and fitness. Possessing undoubtedly no comfortably available actual abandoned ago in a crew of 26 is utterly, utterly facetious. Wholly undoubtedly no hindsight was needed to specify this.
Sprinting out of steam currently so will cover it up, over again congratulations to f365 for habitually receiving to 16. But, have to specify your post-Henderson pivot on Southgate is breath-snagging. Unanimously the qualified criticism over the years that you patronised away you’ve currently abruptly made out board via offered that his politics don’t seem to straighten via your own as a lot. If this was three years ago you’d be praising him winning the group via only one ambition conceded.
Side note, my coworker when claimed he’d read an conference via Gareth Southgate in which he was, delicately bizarrely, inspected what his favorite drink was. His reply was aquatic. I have undoubtedly no tangible indicias this is real, yet surely if one singular remark can ever sum up a employer this was it.

MORE ON ENGLAND v SLOVENIA FROM F365:
👉 16 Expire results as England win Team C regardless of themselves: what implements Southgate execute currently?
👉 Kobbie Mainoo leads the England Clamor rankings; will Gareth Southgate commission focus?
👉 Harry Kane ‘straying about advice a grandmother at a car boot’; is Southgate ‘trolling’ us?
…Nicely that kneaded…yet I’m unsure how. Zero gradual passes; undoubtedly no gradual brings; Bellingham, Foden, and Kane tripping over each opposite other (over again); Trippier; Gallagher…where to prelude?
If Foden won’t dabble on the abandoned wing yet is our flawless assaulter, possibly he need to dabble where he plays for Male Metropolis – on the correct via Male Metropolis teammate Pedestrian overlapping? (gradual passing, lowering in from the correct to shoot)
If Trippier is inevitable, possibly he need to have his horribly own nightclub teammate Gordon outdoor him on the abandoned wing? (gradual brings, actual obstacle down the abandoned)
Sagging Saka is seemingly advice recording Bambi…yet he didn’t literally execute a lot, and Palmer peeked more treacherous when he came off the bench. It would have been intriguing to see Saka and Foden switch wings for a tidbit…yet that would have seized in-game management ™.
The also more heretical controversy is to decline Bellingham when England are playing versus a filled, bus car parking defence and posed Foden in at 10, as for with one voice Jude’s resoluteness, he’s a considerable system and inflicting odds via nifty maneuvering in super tight localities is not his Zero.1 resoluteness.
Regardless, we’ve currently obtained a legible’ish rushed at the Final, which may nicely be the first time we rushed into the first respectable crew we’ll have challenged (possibly advice a pigeon versus a window). Although at this determinant, also the deeply unsuitable Dutch and Italians would surely flashy their odds versus us.
But at least we’re wearing and the French are a person else’s priority.

…Did Satan Skate to job-related? (He glosses faultlessly over his comfortable 3 nil estimate)
I truly feel something mammoth need to have arised in the universe as I think.. I think… that I acknowledged via EVERYTHING Lee Dixon claimed last night from about the 3rd minute!
Cleary Tripps is a mammoth plight to any kind of progress and any kind of width at with one voice – Their correct ago has never owned an less facility 88 and a fifty percent mins.
He interpret Tripps was never going outdoor. Didn’t also woe receiving wherever foreseeable him to attempt and overview clear of him executing it..
We basically dabbled in 2/3rds of the bazaar.
I think playing Gordon on negates the negativeness of Trippier a tidbit (yet I would still dabble the only correct ago that has owned fifty percent a season and peeked respectable executing it, in Joe Gomez)
Entirely young Kobbie has peeked without dead stop much closer after that Trent (I never obtained the clamour for Gallagher and thats never attending occur over again is it!)
Foden OR Bellers please not both (Jude is seemingly knackered.) Foden was as artistic as any person
It doesn’t seem advice rocket surgical counselling implements it! Even if we ONLY correction Mainoo and Gordon that will render a considerable disagreement and it seems EVERYONE can see it withdrawn from Gareth? Seems strange…
Al – LFC and England (not a rocket surgeon) still frisking on your own if Hell has frozen over and sensation lightheaded about agreeing via Dicko
England receiving much closer…barring ‘maypole’ Kane
Adorning the positives: Foden has currently been England’s flawless player in 2 games; advice the fashionable youngsters on the playground, he, Bellingham and Rice are huddling together so let’s urge that. Yet over again Rocks and Geuhi were unforgettable; regards unforgettable. Pedestrian is receiving much faster via age. Rice is hostile. Sake is unforgettable, and currently we’ve owned efficient cameos from both Bowen and Palmer as his substitute so the correct side is surely filtered. We interpret for a reality the Trent experiment has ended up. Gallagher’s substitute at least powerfully thinks he won’t be launched over again. Mainoo was fine; didn’t solicit phase scare. England are progressively battling the priorities Gareth has invented for himself.
But I’m prompting to truly feel gaslit by records only hinting about Harry Kane sagging deep.
His Opta touch maps from the first 2 games manifest it’s not here+there. He’s methodically not there. There was versus Slovenia yet an additional example of his aimlessly clearing up the sphere to the middle of the park, to a position he himself need to be inhabiting, yet he’s busying himself as complement full-ago when there’s currently suffuse there. The thing that directly spearheaded to agreeing a ambition versus Denmark, he literally did over again.
Today’s Opta enact maps manifest heavy traffic in between closely-located Foden, Bellingham and Rice (it’s not immediately a priority if they are on each opposite other’s toes; it is precisely the filter of comfortable quartered football Foden grows on at Metropolis) and Saka as the wide volition is correspondingly encouraging. They correspondingly manifest rarely ever any kind of passes to Kane. Now you can niggle this is four gamers with one voice executing the incorrect thing. Or can it be our valued striker is either unfindable, faultlessly lacking out on, or not wherever reasonable for them?
As Lineker claimed, where he’s granting queries for sphere to feet he isn’t granting the needed convenience to layout that enfranchisement or permit a revolve – with one voice he can execute is enact it ago to where it came from. He’s not peeking to reaction behind the defensive spiel. Foden attempted a enact on-and-go via Kane only to detect him on his heels and not expectant the return. Once England have it wide, he’s dashing to positions where they can’t detect him. There was a yank ago to the penalty detect today only to detect Kane inexplicably “retaining in subconscious” the Slovenia player at the far post. In three games the only time a wide player has uncovered him in the group phase is via a deflection. England’s flawless reaction today, for the Saka ambition, was dabbled about Kane that stood at the edge of the box advice a maypole for them to dance about.
How most information resources execute we ultimatum in days gone by we time out in claiming ‘he’s playing as a onward’. He isn’t. Ronaldo is. Lewandowski is. Kane isn’t. If a midfielder showed this level of strategic ill-discipline they’d be butchered. If Conte coordinated this disparity of Kane he’d likely punch him.
This isn’t granting him specifically guilty for yet an additional riddling capability; But I would specify at this determinant he is proactively granting England also worse rather than also being a neutral spectator.
Watkins showed more cohesion via this crew than Kane has coordinated in 2.5 games. Prelude him.
We’re progressively perfecting 9or at least progressively separating obstacles). Unanimously that’s abandoned is the white-elephant up front. Yet of course that doesn’t preclude claimed immobile lump granting think with one voice objectives racked up in the knock out rounds are literally his.

Tinker Gordon, person
[choke, choke] Nah, I’m just kidding. I didn’t literally grip my breath for Gareth Southgate to manifest some dynamism. I don’t claim to interpret how England supporters need to truly feel, owning won your group while over again falling short to render any kind of real triggers. But I’m indeed an Anglophile, and from that point ofview, it fallen vacates a sour taste in my mouth. I mean it can be termed canny management from Southgate. Apparently, he won’t truly feel advice he has anything to apologize for. But I detect I think he implements.
Virtually the first thing Anthony Gordon did when he came in the by-god 89th minute was layout a opportunity. Southgate need to be blind. I want to shake him — in the words of Dr. Byron Orpheus – advice a nanny possessed.

Southgate missed/lacking out on the well-known
I’ll be uncomplicated, I slammed out about 72 mins into the game yesterday, so I didn’t solicit a opportunity to see how the majority of our belows aside from Mainoo did. But shadowing us wood about for a 3rd consecutive game, in a group where we wholeheartedly need to have been able to win with one voice three games, gained me observe how Southgate wholeheartedly missed the well-known when it came to both crew and crew loan marriage.
I launched presupposing about the ridiculously pioneering Spain crew of a decade or so ago, and realised how a lot of the crew came from either Barcelona or Real Madrid, which admittedly was aided from the reality that the flawless Spanish gamers longed to dabble for those 2 groups, yet surely owning gamers that dabble week in week out together and subsequently inherently interpret each opposite other’s game can only aid? And also Southgate literally has/owned the selections to permit this yet seems to be more hearkened via just putting the flawless gamers on the bazaar, regardless of their positions.
Specifically on the flanks; both Saka and Foden refuge’t been wherever foreseeable their nightclub kind so far. In Saka’s husk, predict if there was an English correct-ago that he dabbled via every week and subsequently built a unforgettable determining on the wings that can be used in the England install. Oh of course – Benny Blanco, that Southgate and his management crew have ostracised due to their absence of ability to swallow their fulfillments and just apologise for the rinds at the Cosmos Mug.
On the abandoned-hand side, if you’re attending dabble Trippier at abandoned ago, why not have a Newcastle crew coworker whose natural position is on the abandoned wing for the exact same determinant – possibly Gordon?! Even via the crew loan marriage, realizing that both Shaw and Chilwell are injury threats, why wasn’t specify, a Tyrick Mitchell channelled into the layer as a backup professional abandoned ago, that can be gained application of alongside Eze on the flanks?
It was gobsmacking to see the crew loan marriage yesterday; by currently it’s well-known that Foden is being squandered on the abandoned, Bellingham has been comparatively quiet in his position, and Kane has been straying about advice a drone web video camera. A employer via a pair of cojones would have gained enhancements, yet if Southgate was too terrified to attempt contemporary things versus Slovenia deliberating we owned currently licensed, I’m unconvinced that he’ll execute any kind of different in the next round.

Is Southgate literally nailing this?
Is it just me or is any person prompting to think that Gareth Southgate need to interpret what he is executing? Is this the scheme?

24 groups? Just doesn’t job-related
Permit me, if you will, to concoct on a topic that isn’t about how subconscious-numbingly detestable the English national crew is and to talk about the tournament itself. I’ve tailed as a lot as I can, yet via a vacancy that begins at 7am and a child that wakes up at least when a night, the 11pm (stretch time) kickoffs have been beyond me (Scotland games excepted).
Last night, I was peeking onward to sitting down and shadowing the football from Team D. I launched via France v Poland, as that was the picked game by the BBC and I was entranced to see Mbappe dabble. As the comparatively pedestrian game unfolded, boosts came wearing from the Netherlands v Austria game. 1-0, 1-1, 2-1, 2-2, 3-2! Electrifying of course? Nicely, undoubtedly no, not wholeheartedly. I’m sure the game itself was intriguing sufficient, yet the priority is that none of it mattered. Wearing Croatia on 2 junctures and Hungary on 3 junctures and a -3 ambition disagreement, unless the Netherlands wholeheartedly ravaged Austria, they were with one voice safely wearing.
Picture the predicament if just the pinnacle 2 went wearing. Netherlands at obstacle of going out. If they and Poland owned both racked up late, France would have been ousted. Football is about dramatization, and this style just sucks that dramatization out of the group phase. Not to reference it’s unjustified, as the groups in Team F interpret what will snag them wearing in 3rd, while the groups in group A execute not. Can’t wait for the Cosmos Mug, when we solicit this style recurred yet via dual the groups.
It’s rather unarguable that 16 crew Euros was the flawless style. Even if, as a Scotland follower, I’m satisfied for the dilation. But the genie is out of the cyndrical tube and we’re never reverting to that, so what is the solution? Awfully undersized. Go via the flawless Cosmos Mug style, 32 groups. Now some may holler at the decline in idiosyncrasy, yet I would niggle that shadowing delicately also worse groups dabble via some kind of jeopardy is a lot more intriguing than shadowing unforgettable groups dabble via none.
What would that filter advice? Based on planet rankings, we’d contain Sweden, Wales, Norway, Greece, Ireland, Finland, Iceland and North Macedonia. I’ll confess, the idiosyncrasy is included. But any person that has tailed football listed underneath the Premier League will interpret that it can be entrancing as long as there is dramatization. And also let’s be uncomplicated, the considerable groups aren’t precisely stance the planet alight here. France, England, Italy. Lackadaisical. Whereas something advice Turkey v Georgia was regards amusing.
The pivot thing correspondingly is that the knockout phase would be the exact same to what we have currently. Zero dip in idiosyncrasy from the tidbit where it begins to solicit wholeheartedly intriguing. Just a group phase via a tidbit more tour. Based purely on planet seniority, your routine group would be something advice Portugal, Austria, Turkey, Finland. I’d watch that.
You’d have to execute something about granting or that would be a wastage of time for most groups, yet you can acquire from cricket and rugby and have the last 16 immediately qualify for the next tournament. That would contain also more tour. Or go via the pinnacle 16 in the nations league, or something the exact same.
I can’t see a downside wholeheartedly. A lot more silver silver money for Uefa, more followers solicit to reap the tournament, most nations we traditionally don’t solicit to see dabble and a group phase that literally plights. 32 groups for Euro 32 audios unforgettable to me (if not much faster).
