Grealish came on and was sort of just 'there' for 20 minutes. Skipped past a few tackles, but then held the ball up rather than driving forward. No impact on the game.
By n8 dogg Go To PostBad game, bad result, bad game management, and deflating after Monday. Hopefully helps people check their expectations.Classic Southgate really
Still on track for that predictable quarter final exit.
By DY_nasty Go To Postbetter luck next time brits lmao
By FortuneFaded Go To PostI hate supporting England. Why can't we just be normal?Thought you were American you turncoat.

I'm sure Southgate was betting on some setpiece opportunity, but it was such a wasted sub. Wasn't what England's game needed at all.
This is the England I remember. Down to 3 favourites to win the WC now then : France, Spain, Brazil. Might be none left after this second match.
By Lego Go To PostEngland played for the draw. Played to conserve energy.If that were the case he would have just made changes to the starting XI
By sohois Go To PostClassic Southgate really
Oh, for sure. His flaws and strengths very apparent by this point.
USA well drilled, good shape just lacks final bit of extra forward class, rely a bit to much on Maga Messi.
By Lego Go To PostEngland played for the draw. Played to conserve energy.literally couldn't imagine a victory against us
legit shook all game
By Fergie Go To PostProbably his last tournament at least mix it up.
Absolute joke.
Because it’s probably his last tournament, he will be more afraid to mix it up.
I honestly forget sometimes how reactionary and emotional fandom is sometimes, lol.
Chill boys. It happens. We didn’t lose, like Argentina and Germany. If you thought we were going to win this tournament, the joke’s on you.
Enjoy some winter world cup bants and smile sagely when Spain win it all.
By markao Go To PostUSA well drilled, good shape just lacks final bit of extra forward class, rely a bit to much on Maga Messi.They need to rely on someone else. USA Marko Markin is not it.
By NiceGuy Go To PostMaguire the only England player who was legitimately any good btw
Has Southgate’s faith. Guy is a real confidence player.
By Perfect Blue Go To PostIs it possible for England to not get out of the group? I guess if Wales win decisively.
Wales need to win 4-0.
By markao Go To PostUSA well drilled, good shape just lacks final bit of extra forward class, rely a bit to much on Maga Messi.I can’t wait until we move on from that marketing gimmick he is just a dude. There are prob 4 or 5 better players than him and it would probably help him to not wear the weight of being the star cause he isn’t one
By n8 dogg Go To PostWales need to win 4-0.Oof

The special relationship
Would have fucking loved to be in a position where I could just watch USA-Iran while ignoring England-Wales
Kevin Kilbane and Steven Caldwell on a Canadian sports channel are absolutely skewering Southgate lmao.
That was terrible. Like the England of old, whenever we come up against a half-decent team, we look shit lol

By Fergie Go To PostWanks over his own farts.
By Xpike Go To PostSouthgate definitely believes there's no manager in the world that could do a better job than him
I don’t think this is true. He’s just publicly praising the players knowing full well they’re going to get some criticism.
I'd be more worried if Southgate didn't believe he's the best person for the job. Like would you want a manager with imposter syndrome?
