Southgate is not a great coach.
Most other top managers would have won the tournament with that squad
Lack of substitutions every game
Sancho has like 30mins all tournament, grealish hardly played, foden barely played
No balls whatsoever to play an attacking formation or team and go kill any game off, 2 goals in the group stage
36 and 37 year old in Italy s defence and he keeps a burnt out Harry Kane who has been poor all tournament on the full match rather than give rashford or sancho a run at them
Youngest player on the pitch hitting the 5th and crucial penalty….
The list goes on, pretty much a home tournament and a favourable draw again, other top nations not progressing so will never have a better chance. Massive massive opportunity lost and most of the blame for me goes to Southgate
Kane is the worst off the ball pressing striker I’ve seen, you might as well put a tree in the centre of the pitch. This allows teams to just chill on the ball and makes us drop deep. Second half was crying out for 3 players who could press and run in behind.
Phillips played a very good tournament and justified his selection to be honest.
Agreed he surprised me with how well he played.
I think he played above what was expected of him, so I do agree to some extent. But that sort of proves my point a bit. That midfield is not good enough for international tournament football.
Mount is the most over rated player in an England shirt, he runs around a lot, tries lots of turns but never just calmly controls the game, not everything needs to be done at 100mph.
Yeah that was the problem and why I think Southgate went with such tactics, Bellingham has lots of potential.
England should be proud of what they have achieved and accept it's as far as they have got in most of the people on this forums lifetime. The negative comments and entitled attitude are totally unwarranted. Tbh England aren't really that that far away from winning something and the fans and media should support the squad not criticise them.
For sure. This tournament potentially a year too early for him to start consistently. I would have brought him on instead of Henderson tonight though.
No complaints Italy wer the best team in the tournament.
There are so many positives to take from this tourney. If I was English I would be absolutely proud of the team and be quite optimistic about qualifying for the world cup and doing something next year.
Nothing will happen to France, have you seen their under 21s?!
Nope are they looking good? What have they achieved?
Yeah they have some talent but still needs to progress to senior team.
So who are these players?
You simple don't have the quality in depth yet. Italy have been winning and loosing finals. So experience can set in. These England players will become better players because they lost this finals.
Tbf Italy deserved the trophy but it was ours for the taking if we went for the jugular first half.
Camavinga, Aouar, Kounde, Konate to name a few. All players who are currently not good enough to be first team regulars in the main team.
Easier said than done when you've got two attacking players in your squad (Kane and Sterling) and potentially another in Mount.
Camavinga is the real deal. He's going to go very far in the game.
