Euro 2024

[dannyonclarets]

Rice...class act

Saka as well. The movement he's making is superb. And then the run and cross.

[dougcollins]

Bellingham, Saka, Walker and Rice all very good.
Foden is a luxury and Trippier not too good, which is why we only threaten down the right.

Trippier on his wrong side was never going to work, as most said before the tournament started.

I can't believe an injured Shaw is the only LB we have - it's like England are no better off than Burnley.

[ISpeds00]

Still not convinced we will win the tournament at all

[Darthlaw]

Bellingham and Saka up for it. Rice imposing himself on it.

The rest? As expected.

Truly would love to see Wharton get a chance at the side of Rice.

[BobSykes]

Bellingham is class. Rest of them yet again shaping to be less than the expected sum of their parts. I guess that is down to Southgate.

Anyway, here we go again, we'll do alright until we come up against the top teams. I really see nothing to justify our billing as amongst the favourites.

[dannyonclarets]

Still not convinced we will win the tournament at all

Then I think we have a very good chance.

[equinox]

Cesc Fàbregas speaks very well, next manager?

[dannyonclarets]

Bellingham is class. Rest of them yet again shaping to be less than the expected sum of their parts. I guess that is down to Southgate.

Haha, what? Are you watching the same game?

Saka is playing a very clever game. Foden has 2 men on him every time he has the ball.

[ISpeds00]

Then I think we have a very good chance.

based on what i've seen so far in this tournament, and that's without watching france yet - i'm not convinced by this first half
maybe it changes and we get a few goals 2nd half

i think this side under southgate comes unstuck in the knockouts

[Darthlaw]

Haha, what? Are you watching the same game?

Saka is playing a very clever game. Foden has 2 men on him every time he has the ball.

Foden defo struggling without the likes of KDB, Haaland, Silva et al to divert attention from him.

Hope he can improve massively otherwise it’s Palmer time

[Goalposts]

Is anybody else finding shearer insufferable

[Winstonswhite]

Kane with just 2 touches in the first half- is that right?!!

[Longsider]

Anyone seen a Burnley flag yet.

[Buxtonclaret]

Anyone seen a Burnley flag yet.

Yes. Before KO.
Think l saw it above the first level.

[CaptainKirk]

We seem unable to keep hold of the thing!!!

[dannyonclarets]

We're ok. I think 2-3 subs to refresh things.

[Murger]

Just cannot keep hold of the ball.

[expoultryboy]

Trent and Foden not contributing anything at present.

[ClaretTony]

He’s a good pundit but I don’t like him on comms

[Darthlaw]

We're ok. I think 2-3 subs to refresh things.

That’ll be after their equaliser. Southgate modus operandi

[LeadBelly]

Became too passive for 20 mins but getting a bit of momentum back now. Good time for a second goal

[dannyonclarets]

Can I just say, I think Alan Shearer talks a lot of sense and is a brilliant commentator.

[dannyonclarets]

That’ll be after their equaliser. Southgate modus operandi

Come on, have some faith.

[BurnleyFC]

Seen them given.

Strange that VAR don’t even want to look at it.

[bumba]

Foden is a different player for England.
Game is bypassing Trent as soon as Serbia have stepped it up, only useful in there in possession

[dannyonclarets]

I can see Cole Palmer or Eze.

Could get us the second?

[boatshed bill]

The ref is having a superb game.

[bumba]

Still not convinced we will win the tournament at all

I'd say there 3/4 better teams than us

[Darthlaw]

Come on, have some faith.

There’s faith and there’s once bitten, twice shy.

[Buxtonclaret]

There’s faith and there’s once bitten, twice shy.

And several decades of watching.

[expoultryboy]

Why we sitting so deep ???

[CaptainKirk]

Feels like a matter of time

[BurnleyFC]

Making hard work of this. We need a second.

[Tufty]

Sorry but the whole bloody spectacle so bloody boring. Apart from the goal...has there been anything else worthy of getting excited by ?

[Vegas Claret]

Southgate and his refusal to make substitutions on show again

[Murger]

This game sums up Southgate to a tee. Get a goal and sit back.

[dannyonclarets]

Sorry but the whole bloody spectacle so bloody boring. Apart from the goal...has there been anything else worthy of getting excited by ?

Then turn your TV off.

[bfcmik]

Way too static, trying to play at walking pace, nobody making themselves available for forward passes. DIRE!

[Goalposts]

This is where tactically Southgate fails . The Serbs have flooded the midfield isolating rice and Trent . Meaning the front 3 have no out balls to them. - kanes dropped deeper to try to get involved . Needs an extra midfielder and a striker of

[Buxtonclaret]

A Southgate side usually needs more than a one goal lead to make a comfortable watch.

How can he fail when we are leading 1-0. and Kane has played deep the entire game?

[Darthlaw]

Needs an extra midfielder and a striker of

Or another right back…

[boatshed bill]

This is typical England

[RVclaret]

Early days but not sure the Trent experiment worked.

[Longsidebovril]

Pedestrian

Changing Gallagher for Trent changes nothing in formation …. If you think he is tactically winning this game against the Serbian manager . I’m at a loss for your understanding of the game

[PremierLeagueClass]

He really is miles off it Southgate.

[Vegas Claret]

if you haven't seen with with the Dutch fans..it's brilliant

[Caballo]

Absolutely reeks of Southgate, how have we turned that first 20 minutes in to this.

[CrosspoolClarets]

Really, really regretting not watching the golf rather than this tonight.

Won’t be sad to see the back of this clown in charge. Just 3 attacking players against Serbia of all teams. Bellingham is a midfielder who bursts forward. It really is so negative. Kane needs support up there.
