Look at those books behind Klinsmann. He's a real traveller.
Yeah, he stayed in the US while manager of South Korea. He went far!
Or he just collects books
Craig Burley: Saka hasn't done it at the highest level like Foden has. ?? Foden has 4 goals for England in 38 appearances, Saka has 11 in 37 appearances. So perhaps reassess that opinion. Foden and Saka are both world class players and I'd start them both. No disrespect to Palmer and Gordon but they do not have the credentials to start - although they are excellent players and can be very effective as subs. England's front 4 have been ineffective because they don't get the ball played forward quickly enough. The structure of the team is too defensive to get Foden and Saka on the ball up front where they can hurt defenses. Play Bellingham and Rice as a double pivot and play a much higher defensive line and forward press. That's a structure where you will see Foden and Saka playing like they do for Man City and Arsenal because that's the structure their club teams play.
i liked saka more than foden this tournament.
international is far from the highest level though. thats probably why craig said that
Foden has been a difference maker 😂😂😂😂 what a load of baloney, Foden has never and I emphasise NEVER had a good game for England in 3 years. Bench him and play either Toney up front with Kane or play Gordon instead at LW, Foden has had his chance and he's been poor every single time he puts on a England shirt.
Yeh his never had one good game not one 🙄
He’s clearly talking about man city u fool , u know where he won premier league player of the year ….
@@extricos foden first goal easy money 😂
Senegal?
Harry Kane should not be captain so he can concentrate on scoring goals. Get someone in defense to be captain so they can see what's going on
100% Toney Kane 3-5-2 would be amazing
that def what they should play, trent at right wing back and walker as a center back and saka as left wing back, belingham and rice in the middle and foden behind both strikers
Will get overrun in midfield
It doesn't matter. The swiss will counter attack your formation anyway and win. They will surprise everyone, especially the english pundits. 😂😂😂😂
Thank goodness we’ve avoided the big teams again. Always happens.
All of the England players are prima donnas
Southgate is reaching the finals by laying low😂😂😂😂, 1000000000 IQ.
Saka may not have dazzled this tournament but for Craig Burley to say Saka has not done it at the highest level and that Foden has is delusional. Saka has 11 England goals and 6 assists in 37 games. That included 6 World Cup and World Cup qualifier goals. Foden has 4 England goals and 8 assists in 38 games. Laughably insulting
Who has won the champions league?
@@environm3ntalist549 yes, under the pep system, but he has been terrible for england
So much love for Foden. Foden is great in the Man City system, but Saka has played well for both Arsenal and the national team. If Arsenal didn’t win the UCL or EPL, it’s not Saka’s fault.
@@deenofr no, he has not been terrible. He’s been better than Saka this tournament though both would want to be better. He’s played well outside Pep’s system before, of course player of the tournament when England won the youth World Cup.
the highest level is champions league / premier league
Southgate hasn't tried anything. He's barely mixed things up. Making subs in the last 2 mins is ridiculous
I feel for him. I think he's very nervous n the pressure had trickled down to the squad, n so they're nervous. They haven't looked tight at all so far. I hope tomorrow we'll see a couple changes n some collective boldness 🤷🏽♀️
@@playfulcat275 he has a team behind him who should be able to sport him and offer advice.
I think that he’s just a bit stubborn and stuck in his ways. He found a system that offered some success with a group of players but that group of players has changed almost completely. Hence his lamenting the lack of a Phillips replacement.
He needs to adapt his tactics, but I don’t think he has it in him and the pressure of having such big reputations in the squad is preventing him from making objective choices.
Still let’s hope we win but it’s rather like watching England rugby side from the past few years where they play dull up and under rugby and not an exciting free flowing style which we all hope Is possible.
@@adamgoulder8019 that 92 min sub assisted the second goal have faith ha
Listen to Jürgen. 2 Strikers would cause Switzerland some huge problems. Especially on that Rodriguez side.
For how many matches do Forden play for England yet is been poorly but pundit want to start him ahead of some players,
They need to drop him and give kane a proper strike partner
Play him in his position … might as well be complaining about him being poor in goal
Frank on the 1-1 prediction could be the one
Jarrod Bowen can bring a lotta problems, he's got that💥🔥too.
these are the best predictions I've seen
There are four types of results: Control/Win, Control/Not Win, Outplayed/Win, Outplayed/Not Win. It's not about style or pretty, its about control and England have none at all. All their results are being Outplayed by the opposition and they are riding their luck because the first four teams couldn't score. However, the other 7 quarterfinalists, quite frankly, are superior and the Swiss will thrash England.
There is also Ground Control to Major Tom.
No one can take you seriously, when it’s you 🤡 that every video posts your anglophobic cr*p.
They usually boss the possession. But theyr not good at creating chances.
Burley is such a whiner.
refreshing to hear an attacker talking tactics ...we have an ex defender as a manager and thats his focus COE
"saka and foden have both not played well but foden has done it at the highest level" - saka 11 goals for england including multiple tournament goals. There is absolutely no reason for foden to be this unfroppable
I don't get the Foden obsession at all, great player but never done it for England, so why is he so undroppable?
Was same with Gerrard and lampard world class until they put the England top on
How many years has Foden been playing in the Champions League compared to Saka? That's the point Craig is making when comparing the 2.
Not true. Foden and Greenwood scored a pair in Iceland in 2020.
Saka had no support from halfway walker.
Swiss 3-1 england
LOL you are out of your mind.
2-1 or 2-0 but to England. Switzerland ain't winning no matter how hard you hope and pray.
What you smoking? Easy win England 🇬🇧 it's coming home
😂😂😂😂then you WAKE UP
Every time this England squad advances I’m surprised. What an underdog story good for them.
They had the easiest path so far...
They'll bottle it
I'd bet on it
@@user-il5mq6tb9m they won't. Not this time.
Just like the last Euros @@user-il5mq6tb9m
They were favorites going into the tournament..
@joeyamorini8382 everyone knows France has a stronger team
Bout to watch Maca highlights, heard he was that guy
Not sure what Burley is talking about with Foden doing it at the "highest level". Like done what exactly? He didn't start the CL final against Inter, he started the FA cup final against United and was invisible, he's essentially never performed for England, and has been carried in a better team than Saka his whole career. If he thinks Foden is better than Saka, that's fine, just say that. But stop with this "highest level" nonsense
He means like the quarter finals vs madrid this year , semi final vs PSG 2021, quarters vs Atletico
Highest level flashes of brilliance only...
Because he's an English bloke who shows some flashy touches and runs occasionally. And he does that against foreign teams.🤣
I hope the swiss team wins! it would be the first time a swiss team would qualify for the semi final. But if they loose i hope England will win the title.
what about Palmer ?
I hope they start him.
If you want 2 play 2 forwards, Watkins provided more movement in 10 minutes than most of the team
He might provide movement, but he won't provide goals (not in an England shirt).
Burley is also clueless about the transition to back 3. They effectively did this in the last game and have won some big games with this formation. It suits both Stones is a poor one on one defender but a good reader of game and distributor of the ball, and Walker who is his opposite
Come on England, its coming home!!!!
IT WOULDNT MATTER WHAT ENGLAND DID IT WILL BE CRITISISED. They are progressing and growing into the tournament. Italy, Germany, Belgium, Portugal and other good teams have been knocked out. keep it real. England have a chance in every game they play now as do their opponents. I am not a huge fan of Southgate however i have liked him more and more since this tournament started. My criticism is more about leaving Rashford and any other left back out of the squad and playing Tripier at left back. Southgate put himself into a corner with his squad selection, that is my only criticism, apart from that I see England growing into the tournament, which is what tournament winners do, they rarely start as well as they finish
Growing? I don’t see any growth. It’s just individuals who decide every game and because they have the best individuals they could easily reach the final without playing good and without playing as a team and without good tactics. Simple as that. But in the final they will face the first proper opponent and they will lose.
England had a easy route is the quarters so lucky...where the England Women had to play the French twice and so far once so far against the Swedes, to qualify for the Euros next year how is that fair
There is no way England will match Switzerland's midfield despite having quality midfielders than Switzerland. They just don't know what they are doing. The game will we be won in the middle of the park. Bellingham is not a 10. Bellingham is a central midfielder (8) so why does he keep playing high???. The problem is he can't give the team a structure and play the players in their natural position.
How the frick are we favourites? The Swiss will play us off the park
Only favorites because England got lucky playing against not so top teams like Spain, France, Italy, Portugal, Germany unlike Switzerland… And even then England didn’t perform quite well. Watch the stats.
England will win 5-0;
@@azion1433 that would be nice but a bit unlikely mate
Proper supporter you are. I hope you're crying right now.
I bet you'll say Switzerland were a poor team now
Switzerland will get the job done especially with rumors that Southgate is going to play a back 3
Nah, Switzerland ain't got a chance against us.
@@England-fan01 like Slovakia "didn't have a chance" against you?
@@Black4Cookyeah we played terrible and they still couldn't beat us
@@DisconnectedRoamer england was lucky. They scored in the 95th minute in a game where not more than 3 minutes of extra time was valid. Now they face the best opponents (on paper) so far and the game should be a easy win after they were unable to beat slovenia or denmark or slovakia in 90 minutes?
Sorry, but at this time, England have got full control of the match and Switzerland are already locked out from creating chances to win.
It's only a matter of time until England inevitably win! So pipe down!
Seems we forgot Trent start in games before.
I really hope England gets sent home by Switzerland in the regular 90 min. I'm so tired of hearing about this overhyped team. I'm also tired of hearing about Southgate. I don't want this team to go to the Semis.
Go Switzerland 🇨🇭 💙 ♥️
I bet you said that about England for the past 8 years right?
@cpj93070 Nope, I just said it for the first time. What does it matter, though? I want Switzerland and Turkey in the semi-finals.
Too bad, England are inevitably getting through to the semis and the finals. You don't want to hear about them, switch off your TV and smartphone and read a book instead.
@@petarnikolov3227 You want Turkey in the Semi-Finals?😅 Why? A team that GOT DESTROYED BY PORTUGAL HAS NOOO BUSINESS IN THE SEMIS! Turkey is GABBAGE😂😂
@StefanoSalSindacco94 English fan wants England to win the Euro so we all want something. Turkey is the only Eastern European country left in the tournament. Im Bulgarian. 😁
Such stupid xomments Saka is the ONLY one who has been trying and breaking through on the right!
Depending on what eingland comes out and Swiss knows how to kick the ball 😮
Why not drop the slow centre forward who only (sort of) works in a system geared to his limitations?
Portugal already played and lost.
Yeah drop the player who has scored most goals in Europe in 23/24. Genius 🤣
@@palashrawat401And yet the team he plays for is hampered - by the fact that he has no pace, drops deep, and restricts how a team with him as the focal point can play
@@davidhull2998 he played the same way at Euros 2021 when England lost only because Saka couldn't put in a pen. It's the system which literally doesn't suit Foden, Kane or Jude which is the problem.
@palashrawat401 There's barely a system under the current 'manager'. That's the main reason for playing like rubbish in the last final. But a more-mobile striker is worth trying. Or is only Kane capable of tap-ins?
And once again we’ve avoided all the big teams it happens in every tournament we play in. They always seem to play each other in the early stages. But not us. Thank goodness.
Its already been leaked Trippier RWB and Saka LWB with a back 3
Trippier? Not TAA? 🤦♂
I like this actually. Except I'd switch Trippier for TAA. Bellingham in midfield with Rice and Gordon and Palmer up top with Kane
Tripper can defend trent cant@@a-walpatches6460
Betting against Switzerland in penalties is kinda criminal😂
England a getting better and starting to gell together now.
Macca and Burley look like freaggin clones of each other
I can’t wait for the halftime multi ball.
first few games i was up for this Euro's with England the buzz I did have has totally been drained out of me. you'll get people like "oh some supporter you are" but if that's the case yeah I would support England in any Sport because that's basically implying "it doesn't matter what you are watching, just support your country" and I think that's total bs like I don't watch Cricket or Rugby I watch Football because I like it thus I'm simply depressed with watching absolute cr ap year after year hoping just maybe we actually play some decent stuff but it's disappointment every single time!
Everyone sane feels that way… England don’t deserve any credit… disgusting cowardly boring football
Totally agree. I had completed accepted our loss before Bellinghams goal. The style of football we play is unwatchable.
Assistant coaches also have a certain amount of influence in the managers selection. Not entirely the managers fault.
I love Maca’s starting 11!!! That would be such an exciting team!!!
Is rice really the man 🫣
Since he’s move to Arsenal he believes he is drop him
He runs around confusing the defense far too busy trying to be the main man
Hard work beats talent. Switzerland beats England
Why the experimenting nw,😮
Italy created diddly squat. Let's see what we can do.
Let’s Go Swiss
The Swiss are on a role!
The Swiss are going to be "rolled" out of the tournament by England. 😂😂😂😂
This isn't going to age well
England 5-0
oh🤣🤣😅
Can't wait for their expensive summer holidays before the pre season tours and the 2024-25 season starts..
the only change is Konsa for Guehi. The other 10 will remain the same, he’ll just shift Trippier to RWB, Saka to LWB and play a back 3. For Southgate, that’s taking a risk.
Changing to 352/343 against a team already drilled on 343 is going to be suicide.
I think the formation change means England will win.
Yup
100%
What did I say.
Now that Germany is out, France is now the strongest out of all the remaining teams in this competition. Spain 2nd strongest, Netherlands 3rd strongest and Switzerland the 4th strongest.
The last German team left.
I would go Mid/high press 343, Pickford
Walker, stones and Konsa;
Trent , Rice,Bellingham
Shaw
Saka and foden
Kane
That way England could attack in a 343 and defend in a 442. It wouls have walker covering for trent. Bellingham as a 8, so foden can cut inside and allow shaw to make overlaps. Even though is a 3 cbs it would be good to keep possesion, just look at how Pep have organized city in the past, at times with 4 cb.
Of course this is southgate, so if he plays 343 I wouldnt be to help keep possesion, it would focus on giving the ball away and defend.
Its all about behaviour not formation necessarily.
IMO, behaviour and the message southgate sends to the field are the main issue
Saka hasn’t don’t it at the highest level. Why this hate. Why lie m. Did I imagine his 28 GA for England? his goal in the CL? His goal against Bayern?
yo forgot something can harry kane finnaly break the curse
Mcmanaman looking like an 80s yuppie 😂
I believe england will win just
Let me finish that sentence.....I believe england will win just as much silverware as Arsenal do under Arteta.
correct
Yes, lad
@@MarkWright4678that's incorrect as arteta won the fa Cup at arsenal you dumb dumb
@@MarkWright4678 so runners up
Palmer needs to start
Switzerland wil win calling it.
England winning
The title should be England preview. They have not talked about Switzerland at all. Frustrating
Oh you poor poor victim 😢
I'll sum Switzerland up for you: they're not very good. There.
@@TT-fq7pl ah yes, they play so bad that the highest paid manager needs to adapt to the Swiss and change formation 🤣 with that squad!?!?
@@asamanthinketh1937 You don't need to use emojis. I can read the tone behind words, as I'm over the age of forty. Here's another explanation for you: for every person who wants to hear about the Swiss team, there are thousands who want to hear about the England team, disappointing as they are. That's life. Why not start your own football channel? Then you can talk about Switzerland until -- wait for it -- the cows come home.
@@TT-fq7pl at least something is coming home with us 😉 lets hope for a good game and may the better team win 🏆
Saka will miss the penalty in the shootout
Reading the comments you every fan from England wants their player to play, but then Arsenal/City fans get upset if we talk about dropping Saka/Foden.
And that's exactly what keeps Gareth Southgate up at night 😂😂
Come on Harry kane it's time now to reach finals and win it,it's criminal that you didn't win trophies up to now.
DA MOB FEAT. JOCELYN BROWN. IT, S ALL GOOD!!!
Saka been the most important player for England is the one assist Bellingham on paper both teams are match England would definitely be a close game
imaybe england prove us wrong or maybe the last euros are on thier mind set
What was the root cause this England starting 11 has not performed well? My observations are that 1) the England's midfielders in particular Foden and Saka need to run more and offer themselves as passing options all the time for the back line and each other so that the defenders don't have to pass side ways and backwards; 2) they need to think faster and pass the ball quicker and more often than dribble it, in particular Foden and Rice. Southgate is clueless if he cannot command his midfielders to do a better running and passing. Thus far in this tournament, Foden has been disappointing. He needs to forget about that he's the best player of the premier league; instead he needs to focus on playing proper and better football. He needs to run more and offer himself in the midfield as a passing option; he needs to improve the accuracy of his deliveries...the list goes on and on. Otherwise Foden will become another one of disappointing English football players who are hyped when they're young but never get better when they get older.
Starting problem is that he was not the best player in EPL. Rodriguez was by a country mile. 2nd... one stand out season should not assure you and England starting pick
Rodri
English like: "The Swiss are the better Team but we will anyway, cause we won the World Cup... in 1966
France VS England... What a great final... Even black beard will fall.asleep
2018 France better than 2024 France. What a decline by the French since winning the World Cup in 2018. It's the World Cup curse, teams always gets worse after winning the World Cup.
That France smashed England 7-1 in 2018. I wonder this can happen again.
@@jimmyyue238 nope. It will go to extra time and probably penalties.
Maca and Burley are clueless. That line up Maca picked would get swamped. Trent is not the only defensive liability. So is Stones when he is facing his own goal. They cant play next to each other. Either go with the back 3 with Trent and Saka at wingback or go with Trippier at right back. Walker is a poor to average user of the ball. There is no way he should be inverting at left back. If you don't use wingbacks then go Gomez at left back or risk Shaw. Our left side has been our biggest problem. And for God's sake if you want to win this thing drop the golden boy Foden. You can't play with 3 no.10s and he is the least productive of the 3
Switzerland 3
England 1
Get off the crack 2-0 to England
England 4-0 Swiss
I would like to see a coach in professional football that actually doesnt behave like a player on the field whenever his team scores a goal. You are a mature manager and we dont want to see you jumping up and down. These coaches should learn and take a note from the professional hockey coaches where they always look serious and they only celebrate with the team once they win the whole tournament. They leave those individual goal celebrations for the players.
Southgate is hopeless
I agree I’ve never rated him as a manager
There are no goals. This championship will be remembered for the fact that no game was scored 7+. Bookmakers have ruined football. Even before, almost all games were fixed, in many games there were few goals, but in each game there were 20 to 30 chances in the penalty area, and now many bet on shots, so in many games there are no more than three shots on goal in the first half. .. halftime.
England is on the right side of the bracket
No escuses to reach final
Les supporters suisses sont-ils neutres lorsqu'il s'agit de prendre parti ?
A scotsman would say that we know they hate us Switzerland they haven't played any good team yet.
We will win 2/0
England's playing 3 at the back not 4...
England comin home can't wait for the noise to stop
Foden shouldn't be anywhere near the team. Everyone keeps hyping him up, and he won't do anything again as he's done all his time for England.
I see no evidence of management?
England winning the euros will be a crazy outcome.
The perfect outcome
Southgate is out of his depth!
After 4 attempts his selections & tactics aren't working and he is now desperate to get a functional team to play the Swiss. Whichever way he shuffles his team selection and tactical setup I cannot see him succeeding
No pressure
England win 5-0
If England and Switzerland play as they have this tournament, there's no way England can win this. Personally, I hope the Swiss advance - it's enough to have one boring team in the semis, playing well below their paper-form (looking at you, France).
0-0 draw, england advance on penalties
that possible starting xi is never happening
Tonight I somehow dreamed about foden scoring in the 7th minute. That's when i woke up heavily sweating
Yeh because it was a nightmare and not true 😄
@@leroygic294 has to be 😂
Put saka as goal keeper
And foden as the ball boy
@@mannyyard9882 he should be
His been woeful
England should stick to what they've been doing,you are here to win a trophy not entertain people, I like Southgate's approach to this tournament, he learned so much and he is a very clever guy, the best man for the job, these analysis are way too elementary
What a racist, saka hasn't done nothing at highest level and foden has. What bullocks? What has foden done for England
Southgate is desperate to congratulate Keir Starmer. England will be home by tomorrow evening.
I’m with Klansman 100%… why can’t we play with a 352 formation with Saka on the left Trent on the right and Kane upfront with Ivan Tony. Kane‘s gonna drop back into the midfield so most of the time it’s gonna be a 361. Let’s be honest, but I think Kane needs a partner and a target man and Tony is really good at keeping the ball just like Kane , he looks so good when he came on
You’re with *who* ?!
Klansman? lol 👻
Who is 'Klansman'? He sounds like someone from the Scottish highlands!
Play foden as no:10 and sub Bellingham, foden will do much better in AM than Bellingham
Imagine England goes to the finals and choked like they do 4 years ago kekw
But it wouldn't be choking in the final, as they'll not be the favourites at that point.
Sweaty socks are just embarrassing.
