Euro 2024

[RVclaret]

Kane frustrates the hell out of me for England.

All time record goalscorer my arse. He’s not fit to lace Charlton’s, Lineker’s or Rooney’s boots.

Rooney’s tournament record was pretty awful. Certainly worse than Kane’s.

[Elizabeth]

I’m not sure a lot of this is even GS doing. He’s can’t be telling HK, drop deep, far post crosses to BS.

Foden, Saka and Kane off.
Palmer, Gordon and Watkins on.

You must be kidding. This is all down to aSouthgate’s team selection and system

[ElectroClaret]

Ht and hope.

[Vegas Claret]

we are playing this like a pre-season kick about, the urgency has to come from the players

[expoultryboy]

So Why's that not a second booking ?

[BurnleyFC]

Rooney’s tournament record was pretty awful. Certainly worse than Kane’s.

Yes, it was fairly poor, although he was electric in his first tournament until he got injured (Euro 2004?)

He was still a miles better player than Kane ever will be, though.

[kentonclaret]

No need to panic don’t you realise we’re in the easy half of the draw?

[Dyched]

GS needs to really think here at HT.

45 mins and basically you’re sacked if it remains like this. You’re never gonna get another job at this level.

Roll the nice and gamble, we’re heading out anyway.

[BobSykes]

100% this is down to Southgate just like every other England disappointment in the last several years. All his doing. Thank goodness he'll be gone after this but what another wasted tournament.

Embarrassing.

[Rick_Muller]

I’d be pulling Walker and putting Trippier on that side, and hope that Luke Shaw is fit enough to last a half. That along with Palmer and Gordon on for Foden and Saka. We’re looking really impotent

[hoskinsgoalatswansea]

I wonder what the tactical genius Southgate will do at half time. Will he ditch this ridiculous 2 holding midfielders and go for it, or just make a like for like sub?

Hmm… I wonder

[BobSykes]

Southgate will think we've been well on top , should lbe 3-1 up and the goals will come. So may not change anything.

[kentonclaret]

GS needs to really think

Perhaps he’ll fancy dropping down to the Championship

[HahaYeah]

Turgid tactics and poor quality from the players.

[Rick_Muller]

This is, unfortunately, likely to be extremely accurate

[Tricky Trevor]

If we were to manage to get through the ridiculous booking of Bellingham, he played the ball, could cost dear if he were to get another.
At major tournaments all bookings should be reviewable post-match.

[Elizabeth]

Well nobody can be surprised at the outcome so far

[LincsWoldsClaret]

C’mon Gareth we need more defenders.

After 99 games we’re still lacking basic organisation

[Elizabeth]

Well nobody can be surprised at the outcome so far

[ClaretTony]

He seemed to think we played well in the last game when no one else did.

[boatshed bill]

We'd be quite good if we could find replacements for Kane and Trippier.

[Caballo]

Awful from Walker, got to hook him, Saka totally ineffective, Foden largely ineffective, and as for Kane, jesus!!

Kane frustrates the hell out of me for England.

All time record goalscorer my arse. He’s not fit to lace Charlton’s, Lineker’s or Rooney’s boots.

I’d take a prime Shearer over Kane, anyday.

[Buxtonclaret]

Excelling himself, is Gareth.
Few managers on his pay grade could be given the talent he has to pick from and produce this garbage.
Hapless, hopeless, & totally out of his depth.
Something he's consistently shown throughout his managers life.
I blame Fat Sam for this.
He scared the crap out of the Suits and they've just went for someone who wouldnt spoil the conversation on their dinner circuits.

[Vino blanco]

That's the most disorganised sack of sh!t I've ever seen from an England team. Like someone said earlier, like watching Burnley last year you know it's going to be crap but nothing seems to change.
Time for Gareth to use all the experience he used in relegating Middlesborough now to change everything round.

[dougcollins]

We've been sh!te for three games.

I don't know why anyone thought it would be any different when virtually the same team is sent out.

[AmbleClaret]

No need to panic don’t you realise we’re in the easy half of the draw?

Plenty on here yesterday saying we'll walk over Switzerland. We won't get the opportunity at this rate,thankfully.

[kentonclaret]

Countries like Austria, Switzerland play like teams that are working together and organised.

England are a collection of individuals with no real structure.

[South West Claret.]

Appallingly predictable football 1st half they must get forward much much quicker.

[ClaretTony]

Roy Keane, speaking about that and our supposed quality has just said: “Quality is no good unless you have a fight and desire to win a game of football.”

[dougcollins]

Walking football.

It's all Pep's fault.

[Goalposts]

4 subs. - Watkin’s palmer gordon and Trent on for me

Off kane - rice - trippier. - saka

[expoultryboy]

Unfortunately you maybe right Amble . This is embarrassing . It does make you wonder what the hell has been going on in training ??

[fatboy47]

First time in this comp that our defence has been truly tested

It really isnt you know.

[kentonclaret]

Plenty on here yesterday saying we'll walk over Switzerland. We won't get the opportunity at this rate,thankfully.

Well, I certainly wasn’t one of them and I rate Austria in the same category as Switzerland.

[warksclaret]

Is anyone really surprised. The England team dont care and its showing, Not once has Southgate barked at them. None of the Slovakia team get into the England team, and we were still favorites to win the tournament, but they are outplaying us.

[aclaretinstevenage]

Roy Keane, speaking about that and our supposed quality has just said: “Quality is no good unless you have a fight and desire to win a game of football.”

And he is exactly right Tony!

[RVclaret]

As I’ve been saying since before the tournament, and during it, the issues lie in England's build up. Rice isn’t good enough to progress the ball quickly through the lines, Walker is absolutely terrible at it and Trippier, well I don’t need to say much. You’ve got Kane; Foden and Bellingham who all want the ball between the lines but no one to get it to them quickly. Mainoo in the team doesn’t change this as he can’t do it either. Wharton and Trent are right there, as is Gomez who played half the season at left back for Liverpool.

[Billyblah]

We've been sh!te for three games.

I don't know why anyone thought it would be any different when virtually the same team is sent out.

THREE games? I seem to recall that Iceland..... ICELAND for goodness sake....beat us at Wembley sometime back!

[Elizabeth]

The thing is we are not shocked at that first half performance. It’s what everybody believed would happen if Southgate did not make proper changes.

[Juan Tanamera]

Gareth Suffogate.

[Vegas Claret]

I'd take Rice off for Wharton, Foden off for Gordon, Palmer on for Saka. Give it 10 mins then take Kane off for Watkins because at least he will make runs

[Greekclaret]

Zero subs!!! WOW

[BobSykes]

No subs as i predicted
