The yanks and boomerang chuckers are putting better performances in than England.

The yanks and boomerang chuckers are putting better performances than England.

To be fair, that bar is set pretty low. People were getting giddy after the Iran game. It was Iran, FFS. Vinnie's Burnley side would probably beat them.

Initially I thought we were being spoiled because in Pep we have the best footballing manager on the planet. Flair, style, entertainment - all essential ingredients to Pep's successful recipes.
But then after maybe 15 minutes last night I realised the futility of making comparisons between the two: one is a master chef and the other, if he made a slice of toast it would have bones in it.

What we saw last night was as inept a performance from professional footballers as we are every likely to witness. And it is going to get worse.
Hodgson had his favourites, and didn't we just know it? The man who once famously remarked: "If Wooney had a bwoken leg he'd still be the first name on the sheet." And now Southgate is carrying on this tradition of building teams around his favourite players.
To see Phil sitting there on the sub's bench while the consistently ineffective Henderson strolled about, waving his arms, shouting, and making sideways passes was enough to convince me that Southgate has some kind of vendetta against our man. What, and why, we'll probably never know: but nothing else explains the Waistcoat's apparent reluctance to put him on the pitch and let him do his thing.

Comedy gold Stuart Pearce " mount was our best player of the front 3"

Is Pearce auditioning for the gig? Tactically clueless and an appalling record as a manager. Pickford is probably ditching his gloves now thinking he's going to get a game up front.

BBC going with the narrative England weren't terrible, give USA praise for playing well.

Just fuck off

If anybody relies upon BBC Sport for accuracy or integrity, they will be seriously disappointed.

As with most aspects of their reporting, they are truly inept.

Not watched the video but Jesus wept that bloke gets on my nerves, especially when he says “make no mistake” every other sentence with his shit opinions.

Thought stones and maguire were the best two players. Stones again doesn’t seem to get much recognition

That's a surprise :)

Stones is the undisputed master and commander of England's defence

Stones has developed so much over the last eight years that he has become a lynchpin for his all-conquering club, Manchester City, and moved beyond 60 appearances for his country.

The fact that Southgate was upset after the Iran game (6-2) and then last night was absolutely delighted after the USA game (0-0) in the post match pressers.

Sums him up perfectly.

Southgate played like a plank, thinks like a plank, behaves like a plank, is a plank.

and is as thick as two short planks

He just hates city and anybody associated with us because when he managed us he was absolutely useless and we let him know he was absolutely useless!
