england are even worse than the netherlands.
one of the marks of a bad team is when they're all running into the ball. can tell that their confidence is shot.

Christ, all those passing triangles down the right amounting to nothing for Slovenia. This is a match of no left wing play.

By Laboured Go To PostSouthgate should oblige Bellingham and sub him off before half time.Needs to move more off the ball. Just kinda walking around in the middle of the pitch usually.
That was good from England there. Should have been a goal really -- great ball by Trippier.
By Batong Go To PostJust tuned in, was that the first chance England have had?Had one in the net before but via an offside.

By Batong Go To PostAlright what subs are you making SlaentI'd sub in Scotland.

Trippier's set piece balls are probably too dangerous to take off but feel like a left-footed LB would help with the link up on that side of the pitch so I'd maybe bring on Shaw at HT.
In general I think Rice has been very uninspiring when I've been watching, so I'd maybe consider taking him off for another attack-minded player and let Gallagher sit a little bit deeper instead. Could see that being either Palmer, Bowen, Gordon, etc. and maybe having Foden more central.

tripz and gallagher of, gomez /gordon on (after 60 mins Watkins on)
you need a functional left side, maybe this it until Shaw is fit

Keeping an absolute shitter on for the odd freekick is... I'm out.
Taking off Rice to leave Gallagher on would be career suicide.
I'm all in on it, baby. Do it Gareth!

Tough for Gallagher but I appreciate it when a manager is a bit ruthless and makes subs aggressively like that.
Taking Gallagher off at half time is terrible for Southgate. Got that selection call so wrong.
They're also so different as players that I wonder does he actually know what England's issue is?

By Scum Go To PostMainoo will score and we’ll never hear the end of it.Been on five minutes and has 10 touches already. Gallagher had 24. 🫤
Trent should be playing. Saka drops back so he won't too exposed, even so he does well enough overall.

England definitely pushing at least. Lots more movement off the ball which was sorely missing in the first half.
Ball moving a lot quicker with Mainoo involved.
Still all a bit shit but at least it's happening quicker this half. Like we've taken some magnesium pills at HT.

By Meier Go To PostEngland definitely pushing at least. Lots more movement off the ball which was sorely missing in the first half.Lmao.
From zero to a bit more
The fact that he would prefer to have Bellingham play predominantly wide left for long stretches of this match over the legit options on the bench is so bizarre. Grealish should be happy he doesn't have to deal with this.
