We'll equalised from a set pieces then get beat on penalties nailed on

CBT · Post by **CBT** » Tue Jun 27, 2017 5:43 pm

As I was typing...1-1 we could have had 3or 4 from corners so far

Cubanclaret · Post by **Cubanclaret** » Tue Jun 27, 2017 6:10 pm

2-1 up now.
If I was a Watford fan watching this £8m player will Hughes, I'd be feeling pretty smug right now.

Its like watching a Dyche team, its almost like Boothroyd and Dyche are the same manager. Park 10 men behind the ball and hammer it up to an isolated Gray/Abraham

Germany dominant since about 55 minutes and it's gone into extra time.

I do wish commentators would stop banging on about how 'tired' players are, most of these lot hardly ever play and they are all in their early 20's ffs

Shocking football from England
Park the bus big time

There's only one way that this is going to finish as far as I can see.

Hope I'm wrong though.

It's now England under 21s for the moronic dickhead to cry about. Can't someone help him get a bird and stop him crying

Tammy Abraham is poor weak in the air and with a poor first touch.
But he's Chelsea so worth millions.

Our former loanee Chalobah also look poor but carry a knock apparently
Also Derby got a result getting serious money for Hughes.
However, Swift from Reading looks worth a bit.Good touch and a decent tackler and passer

Totally out classed football wise

What you crying for now?

Managers like Boothroyd running the u21 side, laughable really.

Has anyone ever seen a keeper be punished for coming off his line in a penalty shoot out?

They lost, park the bus, cling on and hoof it to an isolated striker then lose on penalties, embarrassing. Longball managers shouldn't be in charge of development football.

Fully deserved for Germany
Play football the right way

If you could pick just one of our U21's to sign for Burnley who would it be?

For me it would be Chalobah but doubt he'd want to come back to us and doubt Chelsea would let him come back either.

Anyway he's the one who has impressed me the most

Sandro Ramirez for Spain, linked with Everton for £5M from Malaga. Hes excellent, an absolute steal at £5M. Malaga have some good players we should look at, Fornals is brilliant.

First time I've posted on this thread but that was hugely disappointing last night. Germany were far better in every way and I too question the appointment of Boothroyd as a coach at that level.

ExistentialWanderer · Post by **ExistentialWanderer** » Wed Jun 28, 2017 9:47 am

Have to question Boothroyd too. There needs to be some sort of continuity. I caught a bit of the Toulon tournament and the U20's WC win and they get the ball down and play creatively. I haven't had chance to watch the U21s since Southgate left but one reason I decided not to was because we know what type of style Boothroyd likes. Seems more like jobs for the boys/old school still. No continuity when they're plunged from one style to another as they progress up the structure.

A tactical masterclass from Boothroyd. Always remember his first game in charge of Watford at Turf Moor where he told one of his players to stand directly in front of whoever was taking a throw-in for us. No, I don't know why either.

Brilliant tactic that, I wonder if he used it again?

According to Boothroyd, England practised and practised and practised taking penalties. Unfortunately they probably missed them all!! It would have been better to practise scoring penalties not just taking them. And presumably they probably spent too much time on penalties and not enough time on how to pass the ball etc. I told my German friends before the game that Germany would win im Elfmeterschiessen so they now call me a Fussball Professor but, in truth, England were lucky to get to penalties....

They practiced that much for penalties they settled for a shootout after 30 minutes, never any attempt to get players forward and win the game, just embarrassing really.

England are miles behind Germany and Spain who are producing yet another clutch of youngsters that will go on to big things.
Getting to a semi-final papers over the cracks how many of last night's team will have a successful premier league career Pickford,Ward-Prowse maybe Hughes and Holgate the young Everton lad,all the rest will be championship level at best.

Redmond is already proven good enough at PL level. So is Chambers.
