This Podcast is the gold standard. Everything in the right quantities. Limitless football knowledge. All the flavours of lives well lived. I especially like the Alan Shearer flavour - in the pub and all that implies with a man who has seen it and done it all.
Parch
How has the legend, and sadly terminally ill, Sven Goran Eriksson managing his last ever football match and completing a life long dream to manage Liverpool at Anfield not had a mention on the show 😢
Because he isn't a legend
Not a single mention of TONI KROOS. Very underrated player despite all he’s won. Sniper.
If England had a player like him we'd have won something. Not having that kind of player is like turning up to gun fight with a knife at the highest level. Croatia had 2, Italy had 2.. that's why we lost to them
@@ElBarcoGaming Germany have him and Gundogan but still Kroos is levels above Gundo in terms of just dictating play. They just need a destroyer alongside him bcs he doesn’t have legs now and then watch him cook. All it took him is 7 seconds to get an assist on his return. Amazing player. I think Germany will still fall short though… weak defensively,fullbacks and no proper 9. Havertz,Werner,Fulkrug don’t really convince me.
But with Kroos,Gundo,Musiala,Writz,Sane,Kimmich, add old heads like muller. They can play ball.
@@ElBarcoGaming For me England will always fall short… not brave enough imo. Also not good enough defensively. Brazil played one quick touch through them easily and could’ve scored 4.
Vini with Walker on the line clearance,Raphinha when Maguire passed it to him, Paqueta hit the post,Endrick missed 1v1 last minute of the game and the goal itself. That’s 4 easy chances. Also that wasn’t Brazil best team offensively(Neymar and Ricky/Jesus) but that was England best defense except prob Shaw.
Underrated??? He is in all the sports news and has been for weeks.
@@janvanveelen Relatively underrated. Even those who rate him don’t rate him as high. Because he goes about his business quietly. Doesnt do anything flashy just does the simple things very well and to the viewer it looks simple but it isn’t.
Him and Pirlo so underrated bcs of that.
Seriously, Micah is spot on. Our staring Euro's midfield should be Rice, Bellingham and Foden. Let John Stones or Walker (who've won it all) step up / invert into midfield alongside Rice if you need defensive cover during attacking phases.
Stones can step into midfield, walker has to keep in the back line.
Just means not TAA (or on the bench) but honestly I don't think he suits the rest of the team as well.
So get them to step into midfield and leave Maguire to cover the space behind? Not so sure 😂
It’s so obvious that that’s what should happen. Bellingham is athletic as they come he can get up and down for 90 minutes easily, stones plays the inverted role more than a centre back anyway these days. A back with 3 with walkers pace covering for maguire and shaw is literally perfect. Should be trying to impose style on big teams now not cowering and trying to nick a 1-0
The question isn't what the players can do, but what does the coach want them to do, and that's where England is let down
@@shootatsquare
Maguire is a turtles, his speed is the slowest on the planet football and he will be easily beaten by any pacey attackers.
I'm not so sure England will win the Euro with Maguire as the first team player.
Micahs Room looks like a set from 2001 A Space Odyssey. Great Pod as always.
Space Podyssey
looks like it was designed with one purpose - to destroy the life of anyone with OCD
The chemistry between these lads if absolutely fantastic.
I’m so glad Micah has become such a big pundit. He brings massive entertainment value WITH ball knowledge.
Nice of Micah to call in from the set of Mork and Mindy.
Love the podcast; absolutely brilliant guys, made my day 😂❤
10:32 100% agree Al, whenever England play the atmosphere always feels dead maybe if we were more aggressive and had a style of play we could get behind it would improve
I think if the games were played over the country it would be better like
I love Gareth. But.
1. He cannot attack & relies on players natural ability to move forward.
2. Sticks to the same players, some of them should be dropped if they're not playing for clubs which he always said he wouldn't do
3. There are no longer any surprises to playing against England. Every team now knows how to play/subdue England in transition & attack. They telegraph every move out of their own half.
4. Please get some decent attacking coaches. Pleeeeaseeeeeeeeeeeeee.
Gareth Southgate is the weakest link in this England squad- he makes them too predictable and has no ability to change a match outcome with intelligent use of a squad with such great attacking depth- England will never fullfill it's true potential as long as he is at the helm.
Lads great show but very surprised there was no mention of Sven in this episode,just a request if you could give him a mention on the next pod
I watched his interview on sky extremely moving,not a bad word said about him from the players Great Manager and an even better human being,
🙏🙏👍👍❤️❤️
Love listening to these guys😎
Rice, Bellingham and Foden are something special.
Add kane and Stones, and that's 5 fantastic players. It's just unfortunate about the rest of the team being a bit underwhelming, and that will probably see us knocked out before the final unfortunately
In England with rheir World class teammates
Why did you left Saka behind? Don't you rate Saka highly?
Saka score 3 goals in the last world cup for God sake and Foden was ZERO "0".
How can you rate Foden is better than Saka when Foden has yet to perform for England in the same level at Man City?
So Saka million times more than Foden and Foden is a much overhyped white Englishman..
@@ronnyron4681Why mention white English man? That's Racist.
Southgate is not a top manager. Another great pod guys. Shearer, Shearer, Shearer 🎉
I would love to see Gaza on the pod telling his stories and of course his personality would be amazing. Love the pod guys keep it up.
Did I miss something? England was getting torched at the back, even Walker got done by the attack. I'm not sure we watched the same game.
The problem is the manager who is clueless on how to play a better fit players against different team.
How can he so stupid playing 2 slowest centre backs (Maguire & Stones) in Planet football against players like Vinicius, Rodrygo and Endrick.
Ezri Konsa who has better pace didn't get picked since the first minutes. The injury of Walker is because of Stones error who can't contained Vinicius speed so Walker chasing back in a sudden way unprepared which usually will cause a hamstring. If at that match that silly Southgate was courageous to play Konsa and Gomez at the centre back line then Walker will not suffered the injury and England will not be conceded.
Video editor never passes the vibe check. 😂 Didn’t place a photo of Micah’s shoe deal or Gary’s odd boots.
34:30 is that alan letting one off?
If you're good enough you're old enough! Get mainoo in the team!
Love from SA🇿🇦
Nice to see Gary not playing with his noise in this episode 😂😂😂
He’s always rubbing it and flicking it. Constantly.
What noise?
@@djadsbeats Nose
Omg why does he do that? Is it a nervous tick? It’s so frustrating. I feel for the great man 👃
Defo just a little fidget
Would love to see Les Ferdinand and Ian wright on the pod guys 🙏🙏 listened to every episode and love it keep it coming
Gazza ❤️. Would love to see him featured in the media more. Imagine the entertainment he’d bring with all his stories?
Whenever I hear you three talk about football tactics like this I can’t help but hope Gareth Southgate tunes in and listens to it all for a bit of inspiration. Would be great to see some of your thinking put into place at the euros! This England team should win it honestly, they just have to make sure everyone’s abilities are properly put into practice.
Wirtz's goal was fantastic, don't wanna take anything away from it because I think he's a top player, but it got a slight deflection!!! Reminiscent of Dele Alli's wondergoal vs France in 2015!!
Edit: or indeed Messi's freekick vs Liverpool! Took the smallest of glances off Joe Gomez.
That Messi free kick didn’t touch a soul but the net brother
@@vaderisgreater7341 I'm 99.9% sure it did! It's a very faint touch but you can spot it on certain replays. I feel like someone needs to ask Joe Gomez for conclusive proof 😂
Edit: I just watched it again. I wanna say 100% sure now. There are two angles that are clear.
When we lose, it's only a friendly! Imagine if we'd beaten Brazil....our name would be on the Euros trophy 😂
Quarter finals at best, not proactive enough!
The samba band from the Brazilian fans was the best thing about the game
Gazza definitely did something mental. Micah was creasing himself when his name came up 😂
El Tell, what a man
I saw the #830 on the screen and didn’t know what it meant. Then saw Shearer’s insta post about his 1040 cap and worked out what it was. The FA have a list of each player for England and their legacy number.
Lineker is exactly on point about our lack at f attacking flair. With the players England has it s essential that they are given the freedom to express themselves. The game exposed our defensive frailties- McGuire is too slow and ponderous for me. Its forces Rice to remain deep and it prevents him from driving forward. Our bench is not deep enough with players that can make an impact relative to France, Spain and yes Germany. I don’t understand why we are a close favorite to win the Euros - we have one too many deficiencies including our Manager.
Shearer letting off a rippler at 34:30 hahahaha
They are spot on about Germany
Micah's Mutley laugh always gets me 😂😂😂
For some reason no one seems to bring up rashfords form.. unbelievably poor. Apart from one lucky hit vs city he’s done nothing. He was terrible when coming on vs Brazil. It baffles me how hes even got on the plane. 😂
Form? At this point that is who he is…
I honestly think he’s fallen out of love with football, it’s a massive shame really but he has to leave Man Utd I think just for his own sake
@@DYL2020it’s been like this for years. He has one good year then 2 bad ones
I remember Nani getting battered by the media nearly week in week out for his levels of inconsistencies. Rashford isn't near his level of ability imo and he gets nowhere near as much scrutiny when it comes to actual consistent form.
He's one of the only players I've ever seen pundits genuinely make excuses for over and over
Scored in his last three games hasn’t he? Liverpool Everton and city I think so, against Brazil he made promising runs in box for crosses there’s only so much he can do in a shit England side with 15 minutes on the pitch, what about the guys who played 60-90 mins where’s their criticism?
Southgate is too defensive. He has no attacking plan and how he gets the team to setup and play is Basic. Southgate is the reason we wont win.....negative and basic tactics
100%. The staff have no balls tbh. We aren't stacked defensively in this generation, so they set up more defensive to protect the weakness.
Better managers focus on strengths and would just try and outscore everybody with the world class attacking talent we have.
Agreed. No way the Netherlands, Germany at home, Spain, Portugal or even France have a say on England winning it. They just don't have the quality
Quaza!!!! Gary you are having a Laugh 😆 funny 😆
Good to see big Mickles still full of laughs 😂😂😅😊
Top class as always guys
Suggestion on a guest ally mccoist great story’s and a top man ✌️
Pickford
Trent - Walker - Stones - Gomez
Mainoo
Bellingham - Rice
Saka - Kane - Foden
Forgetting that Brazil missed plenty of players too
7:33 all of sudden Gary audio getting louder 😅
What about Kroos's return to Germany... what a beast
England really should play around the country because Wembley is dead.
They won’t because of the amount of money spent on Wembley and the money they make from things like Club Wembley
Southgate’s record vs the big nations is awful and everyone has a go whenever someone says he isn’t good enough.
They're basically saying that Guardiola should be appointed as the next England manager
Where is Micah, in the tardis?
not enough southgate criticism.
Is Micah sat in the 1970's Tardis?
7:40 Gary Line-jumpscare
Shearer hit the nail on the head that the defence is weak especially without walker
Its so all clear to see, England have a crap defence and they need protecting so we need to just get slowly build up into the box and win penalties against top opposition. Maguire is such a liability against fast players we cant play too high a line.
If most of the England players aren't up for it, do you think the fans would be????
We all know that England will be knocked out when the going gets tough imo probably semi final
Ezri Konsa was excellent, up against Vinicius Jnr.
Guys, do you know that stopping Poland is not only about stopping Lewandowski...they won their game against Estonia 5:1 and Lewandowski didn't score.
Brilliant podcast ❤
Anthony Gordon, a right footer playing on the left was so predictable having to cut inside why doesn't he play on the right and put some crosses in for his centre forward ?
The Brazil and Belgium games just highlighted Southgate’s limitations. The first good team England meet will knock them out. I just hope he goes to United asap 😂😂
Wish matches in England would have loud crowd/fans like European&German football clubs have!Even the known intimidating Anfield crowd is not as loud as the Dortmund or Milan fans😅
I'd like to see another manager. Southgate is holding this team back.
As long as Gareth Southgate remains at England's helm, England's attacking quality will be muted. With a more adventurous tactics England has a squad that potentially can win something.
Talk about Kyle walker keeping up with mbappe he had trouble with vincious jr...
Important to note that's twice Germany have beaten France in two recent friendlies
See a lot of people saying England should adopt a style more like City. City without Rodi doesn't work. England don't have a Rodri. We also don't have a tempo setting midfielder. Look at how City faired in Pep's first season until he got the right personel. England can't just go out and buy the missing pieces and we have to work with what we have and paper over the cracks as best we can.
People go on about this squad being amazing. Pickford has been good for England, but is a bottom half Prem Gk. We have questions at centre back. We never have a fit left back. Have no tempo setting midfielders ( which is why Croatia and Italy were always going to have the edge over us ) , no out and out CDM good enough to allow Rice and Bellingham to go do their thing properly ( hence still looking at Henderson ) and one striker good enough. We have a lot of wingers, 2 good CMs and a lot of right backs.
Us having some amazing individuals really has convinced folk that we have an amazing squad when in fact we have a very unbalanced squad lacking a lot of they key elements required for a team to succeed
Reasonable, but I think Rice can play a similar Rodri role, I have hopes that Toney can step up. If Palmer can improve his shooting perhaps a 9 isn’t necessary?
question for Gary, how did it feel to score the winner vs pele 75 years ago?? legend! Love from the USA 🤣old son of a b
Mainoo came n got 100% possession what a TOP young player to add to the squad i don't want him starting as DONT want pressure on an 18 yr old who's the future 🤝
He played the Henderson role perfectly - sideways/backwards.
18 year old don’t feel pressure. It’s just excitement. It’s older players that have that mentality they feel pressure because they’ve been there and failed. It’s his opportunity to get in and I think he will start him 50% of the group stage
What do you mean "he got 100% possession"? That doesn't even make sense 😂
@@ALG97_0 think he means he didn’t lose the ball one time
We knew that performance was coming but oh we’ll do Belgium 4-0 tonight and all forget about it
Wales prediction aged well
Curtis Jones should be the 3rd midfield player. Shocked that he hasn't even been mentioned for the sqaud
Injured and from Liverpool
Scotland England and Wales would be fantastic
I do rate M'bappe, but lets not pretend walker is the only player to do a job on him. Granted probably only english fullback able to deal with him, so i get why lineker mentioned him
2 years ago James was capable, really depends on how he comes back from injury if he still is.
Brazil were on fire
To have a great team we need to get them to gel together the players we have in the side dont gel together
If this is a BRAZIL 🇧🇷 that can Hold England 🏴 to Nil? Then what’s on the horizon for the future?
The usual England failure
Everyone wants gazza at the rest is football ❤
I’m italian and I can say Southgate is not good, he has the best team in the world after France and he lost the final at home against Italy in the worst era of italian football
Bellingham was again fantastic btw
It’s probably Southgate’s last go a tournament with him being linked away. I’d like to just see him go for broke! Take some risks! Go all out attack. He’s got nothing to loose at this point. The public and pundits just want him to let the shackles off
The simple fact with England they will beat teams of a certain level. But when it comes to the top teams in particular the big teams they won’t win they’ll be knocked out straight away. France, Portugal, Spain, Germany, Croatia and even the Netherlands can beat them.
We should bring Bissaka to deal with Mbappe
Why? Walker dealt with Mbappe fine in the last WC. England lost that game because of our midfield not coping with Griezmann
Shearer need the cap 😂
11:24 what can you read into it? England aren’t good enough to beat the teams up there around them
Every show I've watched on the England match has resulted in the same talking point: Gareth isn't creative enough or ballsy with his team's.
And that's why you'll win nothing with him. He's useless. Attached to the United job is he? That England squad is better than United's and he has literally some of the brightest and best up and coming midfielders in the team and he hasn't a clue how to use them.
Useless.
I was born in 79. Gazza was, and is my footballing idol. The man was a genius and for 4 years 87- 91 , he was simply unreal , and without doubt, the most natural footballer we have ever had. The reason he is not talked about as 1 of the best, is of course,his longgivety.
I also argue 90 and 91 he made have been the best in the world. Glad to hear he is doing well.
A true one off.
Woww everyone has a podcast these days
Why does it sound so forced when Shearer swears?
Particularly for England??? Players Missing???? Brazil had 8 missing and England couldn’t beat them
As a Wolves fan I do get irritated by pundits like Micah continually trying to sell our players to so-called bigger clubs. What would be good for the game is if there was more competition in the league, perhaps Man City will get relegated for their financial improprieties and then have to sell all their best players.😊
Mainoo 18 in age with a football brain of 28 if you are good enough and he HE IS get him in NOW COYG & 🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴❤️❤️❤️❤️
15:10 worst take ive ever heard in my life. This is why everyone laughs at Engand, that's a lifetime prison sentence for you, your son and his son.
They want them to do what they cant so. Foden should be in the # 10 roel and have Beliingham protect him like and enforcer behind him. England will never out-possess any team because they dont have the type pf players to do that. They will always play on the counter.
Play counter football when every player on the pitch plays in a top attacking team 😂
The account of mentions Madison gets is a joke, bang average
Jesus Christ 😂😂❤
Another pointless game for more injuries
The game has definitely moved on that’s why Moyes is a dinosaur … no entertainment just like the play of England
Guyss pleaseee can you be completely honest for once about topics relating to the england play? i believe viewers come on here to hear unfiltered and true opinions. Always looking for excuses for this team and ESPECIALLY that grade F coach in southgate isnt gonna help them . jeeez. you three are supposed to be professionals no??
Everyone is crying about a pointless game vs Brazil 😂 the euros they’re gunna be more hungry. None of those players have England in their head when almost every player on the pitch is focused heavily in the title race. Once that’s over the boys will be more eager to play. I ain’t looking into the Brazil performance as a reflection of how we will be in summer. I may be wrong but hope not
Saka complains about being kicked what does he expect You are playing Football not Handball!! Man Up!!
this podcast is having a laugh....you got micah richards who quit on England !
Southgate needs to be gone, his defensive style of football is an embarrassment
Sorry!!! You dont think Konsa had a good game?? He was up against Vinicious Junior and put him to sleep!!!
For someone who isn’t English, who the hell is Gazza?
Paul Gascoigne
Most gifted midfielder to play for England after Bobby Charlton
