England was passing the ball side-ways and back-wards. Slow in the build-up, players took too many touches you could tell Southgate had no gameplan just slapping big name players together. That was a lucky-win and to be honest IT'S NOT COMING HOME.

@@johndirom8999 Southgate thinks he is Pep, he can quantify football, xG/xA/stat era when it's better to not take risks at any costs and pass backwards/sideways rather than risk losing the ball.
And while they are so far piss poor at scoring goals, it's not because they lack on creating goal chances. They just suck at scoring from those very good chances. Something that the players can fix. Southgate isn't going to fix his strategy and line up. He will field the same players in the same positions for all remaining games and have them play the same way they have for the first 4 games.

They don't pass it forward because they have limited options showing to pass to. You watch Rice when his defenders have the ball. He follows and hides behind the opposition 9 or 10, closing off his space and ability to receive as an option.

How hard is it to play Trent guehi stones walker. Tripper is shocking, and foden needs benching kane. Give him 60 minutes, put watkins on or tony joker Southgate needs to go
Trippier is shocking i agree but the FACT is he is being forced to play out of position because Southgate decided to only take one natural LB and an injured one at that
he means this seasons Real Madrid....the Madrid that parked the bus and ground out sh**y wins in CL and had constant ref favours .....not the historical version of Madrid
Why these guys keep mentioning Real Madrid in the same sentence with England? Real Madrid smashed the smaller teams, then did what's necessary against the bigger teams. It's not the same mate.
@@Gary-nx1um its not arrogance its facts, our squad is full of champions league and top european domestic league winners and priced at a billion more than Slovakia's not to mention Slovakia has nearly half the population of just london.

@@supernube6659when we had golden generation in 2004, who won euros? Greece. Cohesive teams beat individually packed teams. Golden generation suffered because media wanted 11 best players on pitch, and they can "figure it out". Not how football teams work.
Yeah terrible teams they beat Belgium but yeah you’re right they’re useless 🙄 who decides these teams are terrible Denmark a toe away from going 1 up against Germany these teams are solid
'Southgate made 4 quarter finals, it doesnt matter who England played to get there!' Yes, it doesn't matter only if they win the tournament. However,if they don't win the tournament, then we are bewildered that he hasn't with the teams England have had to play!
@David-cm4ok Switzerland hasn't had the fastest start of the tournament, but they imporved and got better during the games. Coming close to beating Germany in the last group game and having an easy time with Italy. Yes they had a draw against Scotland, but England had a draw against Denmark, Slovenia and went into overtime against Slovakia. England hasn't improved during any of those games. They look now the same as they did in their first game. Switzerland is better than those teams by quite a bit. Unless England miraculously play good in the next game I don't see them beating Switzerland.
Wtf are these two talking about? Of course it matters who you play as if you struggle to beat tewms like Slovakia, you cannot beat Germany or Spain. Stop praising Southgate for getting far in tournaments with lucky draws as he cannot beat a good team so it doesn't matter.
Playing out position that’s on the coach. Needs be playing off Kane and gordan on the left. Spain are the template flyers on the wings England have the players the coach is an idiot. First sub after 60 mins wing and prayer. Even then he gets lucky with Toney.
England literally had a good 5 minute spell in 120 mins of football. Absolutely terrible all tournament. This was just delaying the inevitable because we will be knocked out by the Swiss after watching us perform so far.
With southgate we cannot play through teams, he doesn't have a system that allows our technical players to perform. Our only hope is to play more old fashioned direct football, its no coincidence thats where our goals came from. Then we can play better football after this tournament once Southgate gets the boot, until then, direct football is our only hope
“We are doing something right”. Erm no! We have been incredibly lucky with who we’ve played in these tournaments. Whenever we play a decent team we lose. End of story.
We scraped a win against Serbia and Slovakia and we're in the Quarter Finals. Meanwhile in the other half of the draw Germany, Spain, France, Belgium and Portugal will knock each other out ... apart from one. Southgate sold his soul to the devil for this result and this side of the draw.
England livid with Southgare. Imagine down in France. They have been average. They have more talent. France get eliminated and Deschamps may get a 1789
Golden generation? Heard exactly the same 20 years ago - always the ‘Golden Generation’ - it’s British media hype. Back in 2006, the media banged on about England but seemed to forget there were half a dozen other better sides such as Italy, France, Germany, Portugal, Brazil, Argentina. They never learn to look at things with perspective- which is why we clownishly announce we are favourites for every tournament seemingly without doing zero research on other sides.
4/4 games Southgate has got this wrong. Foden in the 10 ⏳ Jude next to Rice/Mainoo ⏳ Gordon off the left ⏳ Palmer off the right ⏳ Trent at RB ⏳ Walker/Saka at LB ⏳ It’s not rocket science.
Does anyone else disagree that our best chance of doing something in the competition is to get rid of Southgate now. Like, immediately? We’ve been so lucky to get this far… and none of it can be accredited to the manager. We’ve stumbled here somehow, but there’s no chance we go further without significant change
I thought they should of sacked him after Slovenia and got Potter in. Switzerland will destroy us Saturday. He should of gone years ago once he bottled the Euros final.
The celebration by Kane and Bellingham after the equaliser…..it was cringe worthy. Against top opposition or if you’ve actually played half decent then yes, however Bellingham has been woeful, that kick still means he has been woeful. Imagine a player from Man City, Arsenal etc celebrating like that against a league 1 team like Crawley town or Lincoln etc…..pick the ball up and get back to the centre sport to try and get the second
What you so-called "expert pundits" either don't want to say or are not allowed to say is that the positive results that England have (4 consecutive quarter finals and all that jazz) were achieved IN SPITE OF Southgate's deficiencies, NOT because of his expertise, whatever they may be.
These pair of plonkers went massively down in my opinion after their dismissal that just because the fans pay their hard earned money to watch a decent game of football where they can wholeheartedly be proud of the team that represents their country are then served up a load of drivel and those same fans are not allowed to complain about it
Sack southgate now before he takes us with him. I think every manager in the premier league is better than southgate. Dont think southgate could manage a championship side better mamagers in the championship
The problem is Southgate, no structure, team is so unbalanced. Like on a building site, you can have the best tradesman, but if your site foreman is shite, there is chaos with the crew. The players don't have a clue, that is down to Southgate
One exchange that sums up the stupidity.... Caller : "....but we're playing terrible teams, Jason!" Cundy : "But that's not our fault." What the hell is that supposed to mean?!!!! 😂
Football must be the only job in the world, where you can do very little too no work for 95 minutes and still be the company's best asset and earn the most money. I always wanted to be a footballer but my hate for school ruined my opportunity. Dropped from the team for wagging off to much.
For all you pundits and rival fans who said west ham fans were delusional for wanting Moyes out. This type of football is what Moyes plays. Boring, no plan B, substitutes not used until too late. Football is meant to be entertaining, be careful for what you wish for.
No I take it all back, you are not doom and gloom merchants, you were right all along, thought I'd give Southgate the benefit of the doubt and we would step it up going into the knockouts, nothing, nada, no change (apart from Mainoo who was excellent). Southgate is a deer caught in the headlights. Just driven half way round the M25, headed to home from watching the match with my best mate, listened to your show, I was wrong and you were right
anybody still supporting the garbage on display, will be hugely disappointed in the coming days.. Jason being a prat and finding every excuse, is as inevitable as rain in the UK
The biggest issue not being spoken about is that the backline and Rice are soooo slow. They pass back and forth and sideways, don’t move the ball fast enough giving the opposition time to reset. It’s a massive massive problem.
The media before every major tournament: "England have a great chance. We have some of the best players in the world and there is no reason why we cannot win this tournament. We should be winning it. It's coming home!" The same media whenever England crash out: "I think we put too much pressure on the team. Our expectations are too high." 🙄
Nope. He proved he just sits there and hopes for best...zero tactics..zero clue...no subs on time...he's a clueless manager ..any footy fan would do better. These millionaire ex players get these jobs based on what? How has Southgate qualified to be England's manager? He's a utterly unproven amateur manager who tonight showed how utterly tactically inept he is.
We barely reached the finals and people forget we are playing garbage teams. England by luck or corruption have had the easiest runs in the last few tournaments
spain are the new favs now by far, only the germans got a hope of stoppin em, best we can do is hope they get injuries or run outa steam for final if we get there but hey, getting to the final with this team now a result come on england
They looked really good but again, they’ve played a schitt Italy and no one else. Croatia not what they were. This cup is for the taking. I’d love to see Austria win 😮
Foden 0/10.. Why on earth is this guy so overhyped by English fans and media alike?! He's played 300+ mins of football and done absolutely nothing! I get that he won Prem Player of the Year, but that's in a Pep system with the comfort of players like Rodri and Silva doing the grunt work so he can float about. Even if he dinks a rubbish pass through/pver, the likes of Haaland and Alvarez will turn it into a goal chance. Without those players and Pep's system, for England, he's just rubbish. He reminds me of Gerrard in an England jersey, just running around like a headless chicken, no nous, just getting in others' way. He should not be playing a single minute Palmer should be starting instead.
I thought we would squeak past Slovakia but at 80 minutes I was sure we were out and switched off. We were awful. I am sure the Switzerland will give us a whooping as they play as a team we don't. He only brought on Palmer because Trippier was injured at 64 minutes then no one else. I would have Gordon, Bellingham, Palmer and Tony as the front four and bench the three poor performers. I must say that Konsa looked good and he can replace Marc (who has played well but is banned). Southgate obsession with 4-2-3-1 is moronic. Either play 4-3-3 or 3-4-3. We can't have 2 midfielders it does not work. Even the interviewer said you changed formation to 3-4-3 and that worked are you going use this going forward and he replied " we need to analysis if that is the best way to go" . He is a complete idiot..
What a load of nonsense! England haven't got where they've got because of Southgate, they've got there in spite of him! He isn't responsible for England having good players, the league, the clubs and the club managers are! The simple reason England aren't clicking is because of shape and tactics. If you look and ask why aren't rice, Bellingham, foden etc clicking is simple, it's called a world class 6! None of them are 6's including rice. Foden has rodri, Bellingham has kroos and more, rice has partey. This allows them to go forward with purpose and speed. Factor in how little movement there is ahead of them(Kane looks knackered) no movement whatsoever! This is why we aren't fluid. Rice, Bellingham and Kane, were awful for 90mins yesterday, that's the spine of the attack. Southgate has to be brave and play our only 6 and drop stars or change the shape to 3,5,2. Not my favourite formation but that's how you get balance.
We can't have another 10 years trying to force Foden and Bellingham in the same team like Gerrard and Lampard...As soon as Foden got subbed we scored 2 goals in 2/3 mins. I'm not saying drop Foden but just play either 1 but not both.
Hang in there and ride your luck.. Thats not proper advice.. Cundy should be Gareths assistant Manager.. And o Hara going on about believe... Hes about to walk out watching every game.. But when a caller speaks the truth they're Gareth fans again.. Flip flopping every 2 seconds.. You would stink the place out rather than play better football as long as you win it.. Well dont criticise the performances than.. The hypocrisy is unbelievable
@@tylersinger1234 no he won’t, he’ll stick to his failing formula until it’s all over and still claim it was the right thing to do. Defence at all cost forget about playing to your teams strengths.

Actually wouldn’t prefer to stink the joint out and win it. Let’s say we play like this and by some miracle win the tournament. The final whistle blows in the final and it’s going to feel fraudulent to celebrate this.
England golden generation 😂😂. This English team not anywhere near the best English teams not even close. So how people calling this team a golden generation 😂😂😂
I could get us too a quarter final with them players and that teams we’ve faced. But winning it, takes a different breed of dog, and Southgate ain’t that.
Cundy says Southgate has done a good job for England. Was has he won for England as a manager or a player ?? If fact what has he ever won in his whole career ?? 😮
When a manager decides to play Eze at left back and put Toney on at the 94th minute, because he said, 'There COULD be a moment for him,' is manager that hasn't got a clue.
I think the players hate each other its hard for them to get on on top of that you have the worst football manager in the world its his way Or no way good look in the next round from a Irish man
It is the pace of play. Its so so incredibly slow. Even when there is a chance to counter attack, they still find a way to slow it down,and pass it sideways.
Those who give Southgate grace coz he got England to qtrs or finals or semis are also part of the problem - any two bit manager would have done the same with the draw England had in 2018, 2020 and now 2024 Make one game England won coz of Southgate’s brilliance

They don't pass it forward because they have limited options showing to pass to. You watch Rice when his defenders have the ball.

Real Madrid don't pass the ball around looking lost and then give the ball away before they even get into the opponents half.
Route one football would be more effective from this garbage tactic that Southgate has his team doing.
They did against City.
You cannot keep blindly defending the number one hindrance to the England team.
Who is blindy defending him?
@@albo2591 Cundy
It's kane man
The number one hindrance to the England team is by far and away Southgate .
How hard is it to play
Trent guehi stones walker.
Tripper is shocking, and foden needs benching kane. Give him 60 minutes, put watkins on or tony joker Southgate needs to go
Trippier is shocking i agree but the FACT is he is being forced to play out of position because Southgate decided to only take one natural LB and an injured one at that
@@therealtaggart4021 walker can play both right and left bk and trent is better then tripper is just Southgate is out of touch
Come on Trent can't defend for toffee
How does a team have 80% possession and not one shot on target in 90 minutes? Answer Hire Gareth Southgate as manager
Jason missing the point. We have reached quarter finals DESPITE the Hapless Southgate.
Southgate is the worst manager I've ever seen at any level! Completely clueless about tactics and in game management!
totally true he is worse than Graham Taylor
Most over rated team in the world !!

England is far superior to Real Madrid.
No sh,,,t, absolutely no comparison😮😮😮
@@italianplastic23oh cry more 😂
Why these guys keep mentioning Real Madrid in the same sentence with England? Real Madrid smashed the smaller teams, then did what's necessary against the bigger teams. It's not the same mate.
Why do people keep saying smaller teams they beat Belgium the arrogance on us is insane
Spot on, mate. Worst analogy ever!
@@Gary-nx1um its not arrogance its facts, our squad is full of champions league and top european domestic league winners and priced at a billion more than Slovakia's not to mention Slovakia has nearly half the population of just london. The fact that England struggled so much is an indictment on England but also great credit to Slovakia considering the vast disparity of resources available to each team
@@supernube6659when we had golden generation in 2004, who won euros? Greece. Cohesive teams beat individually packed teams. Golden generation suffered because media wanted 11 best players on pitch, and they can "figure it out". Not how football teams work.
We're not doing anything right Jason. We're getting away with it against terrible teams
Yeah terrible teams they beat Belgium but yeah you’re right they’re useless 🙄 who decides these teams are terrible Denmark a toe away from going 1 up against Germany these teams are solid
All the people in the comments must be young . I’ve been watching England play this poorly since the 1970s 😂😂😂
And me but I try not to watch them now, they are so frustratingly annoying in every way
Indeed, but i must be older...
Never seen England won a Eurocup😂 since it de started in the 1920s?😅
I remember when Don Revie was in charge and we failed to reach the 76 euros. That was a total disaster
Me too....should carry a health warning
Never this bad, never!
'Southgate made 4 quarter finals, it doesnt matter who England played to get there!' Yes, it doesn't matter only if they win the tournament. However,if they don't win the tournament, then we are bewildered that he hasn't with the teams England have had to play!
We are in this competition by pure luck. Switzerland will beat us easily come back to this comment if you disagree
We'll win 3-1.
Scotland drew with them, and we’re the worst fqn team in the world.
@David-cm4ok Switzerland hasn't had the fastest start of the tournament, but they imporved and got better during the games. Coming close to beating Germany in the last group game and having an easy time with Italy. Yes they had a draw against Scotland, but England had a draw against Denmark, Slovenia and went into overtime against Slovakia. England hasn't improved during any of those games. They look now the same as they did in their first game. Switzerland is better than those teams by quite a bit. Unless England miraculously play good in the next game I don't see them beating Switzerland.
@@David-cm4oknaaa you are not 😊 Scots are very brave!
hope you do then dismiss Southgate when it's all over
Wtf are these two talking about? Of course it matters who you play as if you struggle to beat tewms like Slovakia, you cannot beat Germany or Spain.
Stop praising Southgate for getting far in tournaments with lucky draws as he cannot beat a good team so it doesn't matter.
Cundy having a shocker tonight. Talking absolute guff.
Tonight? He’s been talking nonsense for well over a decade on the radio now
What exactly?
Talking about how the teams we've played being irrelevant then harps back to `78
That's the 5th game in a row including Iceland that England have barely had a shot on target. It's not resilience. It's luck. Sheer luck.
Foden is a busted flush for England. Never has and never will work. Toney and Eze looked far more impactful.
Playing out position that’s on the coach. Needs be playing off Kane and gordan on the left. Spain are the template flyers on the wings England have the players the coach is an idiot. First sub after 60 mins wing and prayer. Even then he gets lucky with Toney.
@@michaelmulhall5007 - bull. The man you are defending has 35+ caps and 4 goals - give over because with those returns he has to go
Thank you
Foden is so overrated it's unreal 😢
Correct, we need BBC not Little twinks
Foden is too good for a Southgate defensive team
England literally had a good 5 minute spell in 120 mins of football. Absolutely terrible all tournament. This was just delaying the inevitable because we will be knocked out by the Swiss after watching us perform so far.
I can't believe their luck this tournament. Southgate should buy himself a lottery ticket as in NOW.
Agree, until Southgate made substitutions to ensure they would go on the defensive again.
This is spot on.
With southgate we cannot play through teams, he doesn't have a system that allows our technical players to perform. Our only hope is to play more old fashioned direct football, its no coincidence thats where our goals came from. Then we can play better football after this tournament once Southgate gets the boot, until then, direct football is our only hope
Southgate is the kind of person to crash his car while parked.
“We are doing something right”. Erm no! We have been incredibly lucky with who we’ve played in these tournaments. Whenever we play a decent team we lose. End of story.
Like when we beat Germany yeah you’re right 👍
Let’s just stop supporting us because we can’t win we get through we’ve played no one we lose
We scraped a win against Serbia and Slovakia and we're in the Quarter Finals. Meanwhile in the other half of the draw Germany, Spain, France, Belgium and Portugal will knock each other out ... apart from one. Southgate sold his soul to the devil for this result and this side of the draw.
Seriously, The FA must have driven a Lory full of Euros to Fifa’s doorstep. Is Infantino still there???
England livid with Southgare. Imagine down in France. They have been average. They have more talent. France get eliminated and Deschamps may get a 1789
Golden generation? Heard exactly the same 20 years ago - always the ‘Golden Generation’ - it’s British media hype. Back in 2006, the media banged on about England but seemed to forget there were half a dozen other better sides such as Italy, France, Germany, Portugal, Brazil, Argentina. They never learn to look at things with perspective- which is why we clownishly announce we are favourites for every tournament seemingly without doing zero research on other sides.
It's the world-famous English exceptionalism...

If Trent plays rb than Gomes or konsa LB better defensive Saka should be impact sub
Palmer has done literally nothing. Are people having some kind of mass hysteria
better off going route one, stick Toney and Watkins up top and get Trent to do some long balls.
we did then we scored lol
Does anyone else disagree that our best chance of doing something in the competition is to get rid of Southgate now. Like, immediately?
We’ve been so lucky to get this far… and none of it can be accredited to the manager. We’ve stumbled here somehow, but there’s no chance we go further without significant change
Was actually saying this and totally agree
I thought they should of sacked him after Slovenia and got Potter in. Switzerland will destroy us Saturday. He should of gone years ago once he bottled the Euros final.
Cundy contradicts himself over and over. These 2 🤡 still think England have a chance
“I’m actually a famous soccer player from England”
🤣😭🤣😭 bless him
The celebration by Kane and Bellingham after the equaliser…..it was cringe worthy. Against top opposition or if you’ve actually played half decent then yes, however Bellingham has been woeful, that kick still means he has been woeful. Imagine a player from Man City, Arsenal etc celebrating like that against a league 1 team like Crawley town or Lincoln etc…..pick the ball up and get back to the centre sport to try and get the second
Southgate is absolutely clueless.
Look at what spain did when they went 2-1 up, compared to what southgate did.
What you so-called "expert pundits" either don't want to say or are not allowed to say is that the positive results that England have (4 consecutive quarter finals and all that jazz) were achieved IN SPITE OF Southgate's deficiencies, NOT because of his expertise, whatever they may be.
Cun¥y comparing us to France, who’s trophy cabinet in recent times is light years ahead 😂
Kane and Foden needs to be dropped for Toney and Palmer
These pair of plonkers went massively down in my opinion after their dismissal that just because the fans pay their hard earned money to watch a decent game of football where they can wholeheartedly be proud of the team that represents their country are then served up a load of drivel and those same fans are not allowed to complain about it
Sack southgate now before he takes us with him. I think every manager in the premier league is better than southgate. Dont think southgate could manage a championship side better mamagers in the championship
The problem is Southgate, no structure, team is so unbalanced. Like on a building site, you can have the best tradesman, but if your site foreman is shite, there is chaos with the crew. The players don't have a clue, that is down to Southgate
One exchange that sums up the stupidity....
Caller : "....but we're playing terrible teams, Jason!"
Cundy : "But that's not our fault."
What the hell is that supposed to mean?!!!! 😂
Absolute garbs with the exception of Kobbie tonight who should start again in the next game
We made Slovakia look like prime Barca.
Football must be the only job in the world, where you can do very little too no work for 95 minutes and still be the company's best asset and earn the most money.
I always wanted to be a footballer but my hate for school ruined my opportunity. Dropped from the team for wagging off to much.
I’d hate to see Southgate with an IKEA flat pack, hex key and set of instructions 😅
😂😂😂
Switzerland ain’t a bad side, definitely no mugs.
For all you pundits and rival fans who said west ham fans were delusional for wanting Moyes out. This type of football is what Moyes plays. Boring, no plan B, substitutes not used until too late. Football is meant to be entertaining, be careful for what you wish for.
Moyes big Sam Southgate all play the same scrap. Has he not watched Spain
No I take it all back, you are not doom and gloom merchants, you were right all along, thought I'd give Southgate the benefit of the doubt and we would step it up going into the knockouts, nothing, nada, no change (apart from Mainoo who was excellent). Southgate is a deer caught in the headlights. Just driven half way round the M25, headed to home from watching the match with my best mate, listened to your show, I was wrong and you were right
anybody still supporting the garbage on display, will be hugely disappointed in the coming days.. Jason being a prat and finding every excuse, is as inevitable as rain in the UK
Start Toney, bench Foden.
Bingo agreed
Mongs
Southgate is so clueless it looks like Mr Bean is England coach....
The biggest issue not being spoken about is that the backline and Rice are soooo slow. They pass back and forth and sideways, don’t move the ball fast enough giving the opposition time to reset. It’s a massive massive problem.
The media before every major tournament: "England have a great chance. We have some of the best players in the world and there is no reason why we cannot win this tournament. We should be winning it. It's coming home!"
The same media whenever England crash out: "I think we put too much pressure on the team. Our expectations are too high."
🙄
Instead of using Foden, put in Dennis, ERF, Albion, Scammell, Guy or Seddon instead.
Southgate has a halo on his head
Nope. He proved he just sits there and hopes for best...zero tactics..zero clue...no subs on time...he's a clueless manager ..any footy fan would do better. These millionaire ex players get these jobs based on what? How has Southgate qualified to be England's manager? He's a utterly unproven amateur manager who tonight showed how utterly tactically inept he is.
@kingarthur7250 we reached the euros final with him hard to believe now.
We barely reached the finals and people forget we are playing garbage teams. England by luck or corruption have had the easiest runs in the last few tournaments
spain are the new favs now by far, only the germans got a hope of stoppin em, best we can do is hope they get injuries or run outa steam for final if we get there but hey, getting to the final with this team now a result come on england
They looked really good but again, they’ve played a schitt Italy and no one else. Croatia not what they were. This cup is for the taking. I’d love to see Austria win 😮
@@David-cm4ok indeed all for taking, Austria could win too, really good tournament we all enjoying it
Foden 0/10.. Why on earth is this guy so overhyped by English fans and media alike?! He's played 300+ mins of football and done absolutely nothing! I get that he won Prem Player of the Year, but that's in a Pep system with the comfort of players like Rodri and Silva doing the grunt work so he can float about. Even if he dinks a rubbish pass through/pver, the likes of Haaland and Alvarez will turn it into a goal chance. Without those players and Pep's system, for England, he's just rubbish. He reminds me of Gerrard in an England jersey, just running around like a headless chicken, no nous, just getting in others' way. He should not be playing a single minute Palmer should be starting instead.
In all my years 58 years of them, this is the first time ever I wanted the pain to stop, please no more!
I thought we would squeak past Slovakia but at 80 minutes I was sure we were out and switched off. We were awful. I am sure the Switzerland will give us a whooping as they play as a team we don't. He only brought on Palmer because Trippier was injured at 64 minutes then no one else. I would have Gordon, Bellingham, Palmer and Tony as the front four and bench the three poor performers. I must say that Konsa looked good and he can replace Marc (who has played well but is banned). Southgate obsession with 4-2-3-1 is moronic. Either play 4-3-3 or 3-4-3. We can't have 2 midfielders it does not work. Even the interviewer said you changed formation to 3-4-3 and that worked are you going use this going forward and he replied " we need to analysis if that is the best way to go" . He is a complete idiot..
Guys we need to bring it back to basics. We smack the likes of Slovakia 2-0, 3-0 in qualifying but when it comes to tournament football we stink.
Because they’re bang up for it 🤷♀️
Like England of old.
What a load of nonsense! England haven't got where they've got because of Southgate, they've got there in spite of him! He isn't responsible for England having good players, the league, the clubs and the club managers are! The simple reason England aren't clicking is because of shape and tactics. If you look and ask why aren't rice, Bellingham, foden etc clicking is simple, it's called a world class 6! None of them are 6's including rice. Foden has rodri, Bellingham has kroos and more, rice has partey. This allows them to go forward with purpose and speed. Factor in how little movement there is ahead of them(Kane looks knackered) no movement whatsoever! This is why we aren't fluid. Rice, Bellingham and Kane, were awful for 90mins yesterday, that's the spine of the attack. Southgate has to be brave and play our only 6 and drop stars or change the shape to 3,5,2. Not my favourite formation but that's how you get balance.
We can't have another 10 years trying to force Foden and Bellingham in the same team like Gerrard and Lampard...As soon as Foden got subbed we scored 2 goals in 2/3 mins.
I'm not saying drop Foden but just play either 1 but not both.
Hang in there and ride your luck.. Thats not proper advice.. Cundy should be Gareths assistant Manager.. And o Hara going on about believe... Hes about to walk out watching every game.. But when a caller speaks the truth they're Gareth fans again.. Flip flopping every 2 seconds.. You would stink the place out rather than play better football as long as you win it.. Well dont criticise the performances than.. The hypocrisy is unbelievable
Need to accept the fact foden needs to be benched
Yes, if you don’t play him in the middle or on the right. He can take control of a game if he is played in the middle exactly as he does for City.
@steves1460 Southgate isn't going to play him in either though is he
@@tylersinger1234 no he won’t, he’ll stick to his failing formula until it’s all over and still claim it was the right thing to do. Defence at all cost forget about playing to your teams strengths.

Toney, Kane
Are you Mike basset?
I could get us too a quarter final with them players and that teams we’ve faced. But winning it, takes a different breed of dog, and Southgate ain’t that.
Cundy says Southgate has done a good job for England. Was has he won for England as a manager or a player ??
If fact what has he ever won in his whole career ?? 😮
Richard the caller said Ivan Toney on and saka left back. You literally mocked him. That team literally won us the game
When a manager decides to play Eze at left back and put Toney on at the 94th minute, because he said,
'There COULD be a moment for him,' is manager that hasn't got a clue.
I think the players hate each other its hard for them to get on on top of that you have the worst football manager in the world its his way Or no way good look in the next round from a Irish man
It is the pace of play. Its so so incredibly slow. Even when there is a chance to counter attack, they still find a way to slow it down,and pass it sideways.
I hope Southgate goes after this tournament. I'd give Eddie Howe or Graham Potter a chance.
Saw Southgates comments in the post match presser. Absolutely the guy is delusional
Those who give Southgate grace coz he got England to qtrs or finals or semis are also part of the problem - any two bit manager would have done the same with the draw England had in 2018, 2020 and now 2024 Make one game England won coz of Southgate’s brilliance
