Round of 16

[ToffeeTim]

We literally don’t have a midfield. I don’t know how you expect a striker to do anything when he’s starved of chances.

He could try moving about a bit

That might help

 

[Alan Whittle]

Was Roy Hodgson football this bad?

Genuinely?

How long have you got? Mind you, he learned from Don Howe.

 

[Runub]

Would be a shame if Southgate was left marooned on 99 games in charge

Was Roy Hodgson football this bad?

Genuinely?

Yes but he had lesser players than we have now.

 

[Gooner66789]

"Arise Sir Gareth, for his tactical nous and getting us to the "latter stages" of a European competiton again!"

Which is going to be stupid because minimum with this squad he should be getting to Semi-finals every time.

 

[RomanReigns]

Lost to Croatia, Belgium and Italy when it mattered

They ain’t Brazil, Argentina, France or Spain

Absolute charlatan that Southgate

 

[I can't even]

Conservative government. Conservative footy.

 

[Obes]

Southgate nuked this tournament the moment he decided to put his faith in Luke Shaw being fit and not taking any other recognised left-back. Now having to rely on a crap past-it Trippier to provide attacking width is a massive hindrance to this team.

 

[No Alla Violenza]

It's actually impressive to set up a team up so badly that quality players like Bellingham, Foden and Saka all look so bad.

It's a masterclass in how not to coach a football team

These players should be taking matters into their own hands though

Southgate is a terrible manager, but these performances are not all on him

 

[Bwana]

Pope would've already bagged a brace. Pickers out!

 

[Mozza1987]

That's a booking lol

 

[flibbyflob]

Would be a shame if Southgate was left marooned on 99 games in charge

Stick 2 flakes in it if he is

 

[coollino]

At least going out now means the non football fans won't get involved and train station names will change

 

[LinekersLegs]

 

[Papa Shango]

The love in with English managers has to stop, we need bonafide World class managers.

Howe isn't the answer either, he's another southgate,

World class managers don't take International jobs.

Know what England really need? To be better at football, especially against teams who are not from Britain. It's been this way for decades.
