The Euro 2024 Thread

[Squeak]

England need to step up the pace here. Shades of Denmark this but with a bit more quality and control.

 

[pavlosmacwolf]

Get TAA off now FFS!

 

[Squeak]

Let's hope this is one of those games where we soak up the pressure, hit them on the break and then kill them after 75 mins as they tire.

 

[AndyWolves]

Our front three look isolated when they get the ball.

 

[Tony Towner]

No they haven't. In the old days, they never warmed up except for a few mins before the ref called for kick off. Then they started coming out for 10 mins, then 20 and now we have 40.

When is the old days? Players came out for a warm up at about 2.20 40 years ago

 

[Wellen Wolf]

Other than a bright opening 15 minutes it's been absolute toss. I wouldn't bet on an equaliser but at the same time it wouldn't surprise

We are being Southgated. Always like this.

 

[Jack Regan]

Yep it's all very world cup semi final against Croatia. Albeit against far inferior opposition.

 

[AndyWolves]

I wouldnt have gone for Gallagher. We have better cm options

I don't think we do, Rice aside it's a black hole in there.

 

[Tony Towner]

Shearer has been ok, he's not a good co com as he doesn't really inform you or tell you what you can't see for yourself, but equally he doesn't insult your intelligence by speaking shite

Wharton is the obvious choice

Wharton is the obvious choice

Him and Mainoo are very inexperienced at this level. The fact TAA started suggests Southgate has limited trust in either of those.

Bowen coming on... Not sure how Foden is still on the pitch either.

 

[AndyWolves]

At least given foden a chance down the right

 

[pavlosmacwolf]

Now kane off, foden in the middle and anyone who can run on the left wing.
Jesus it aint rocket science.

 

[YoungWolf]

So the players are now coming out to warm up 40 minutes before kick off. No wonder they are knackered from 70 mins on.

Wild

Theyd both be better than Gallagher imv

 

[Wolftone]

Foden has been fairly ineffective. Created nothing.

 

[YoungWolf]

Theyd both be better than Gallagher imv

We were far too open in midfield though. If we want someone who’s going to hold the shape better and press a bit Gallagher is a fairly decent shout I think

 

[The Bear]

Foden has been fairly ineffective. Created nothing.

He needs people to move around him. What he's got is Kane staying up top as much as possible and Saka drifting out of the game.

Him and Mainoo are very inexperienced at this level. The fact TAA started suggests Southgate has limited trust in either of those.

Bowen coming on... Not sure how Foden is still on the pitch either.

Spanish 16 year old winger looked world class yesterday.

Not sure Southgate is anything but conservative though and wouldn't be brave enough to make that change.

I agree with you on Foden, Eze would be the obvious change here.
