Serbia v England - Sun 16th June, 20:00 | Euro 2024 Group C

[paulchapo]

Typical England performance that. Start off well, look comfortable and score. Then we can't add to it, start making unforced errors and nerves grow.

 

[Jonas.shaffer]

Foden hasn't been great, but Kane has been worse. I wouldn't be surprised if Foden isn't starting to come the knockouts. He just can't get it going for England.

 

[journolud]

“Trent” a weak link

 

[Gabriel]

Rather drab affair. England have nothing on their left and Serbia have nothing anywhere.

 

[bluemoon32]

Foden not in the game at all

 

[Cobra]

Foden’s had plenty of touches, he just seems happy to play it ultra safe all the time. He needs to actually attempt to do something

 

[Sky Blue]

Bellingham is running the show.

Hi Alan.

 

[xgorton]

Shit corner,shit team.Game also crap.

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Foden hasn't been great, but Kane has been worse. I wouldn't be surprised if Foden isn't starting to come the knockouts. He just can't get it going for England.

He’s having to Cover Trippier

 

[Mr Blue Moon]

A half of 2 halves. England started well and deserved the lead but since then. Hmmmm.

So it’s a game of 4 halves?

 

[Josh_D]

They’re supposed to be able to work in theory but when Bellingham is on the side Phil is, there’s hardly a connection. Plus, the spaces you’d expect Phil to take up is where Bellingham is.

Said it earlier, don’t think we’ll really see City Foden as long as Bellingham plays the role he does. It is what it is.

 

[super_city_si]

Waistcoat tactics.

Soon as we scored, trippier stays back and fodens isolated. We give uo territory and the midfield cant get the ball to him. Same story every singke fucking time under southgate

Doing his best Grealish impression

 

[madloaf]

We've learned absolutely nothing that we didn't know. Arnold has been his mistake ridden self. The left is a mess, trippier is not a left back. Meh. Saka has the left back on toast so give him the fucking ball.

 

[lust overlord]

Decent first half.
Started well,like the way how Kane is stopping up front.
Bellingham,Saka and Guehi outstanding.

 

[Nascent Blues]

There's been fuck-all offensive coming from the midfield in the last 25 minutes, regardless of how Bellingham has played. Rice and Arnold have offered very little, if anything.

 

[BlueHammer85]

That'll do, well done England. Good half.

Serbia pressing us back near end, people forget that's just the nature of football when you're 1-0 down at times, teams grow into it. it's not tactics from the Manger - so many don't understand that.

Individually... Bellingham has been superb, amazing how much jealous shite has been written about him. Saka superb. Rice and Trent working well and defensively all ok.

More the same 2nd half, C'mon England.

 

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

we don't create very much at all do we?

unless something changes, it looks like England are going to rely on bits of luck or scrappy goals this tournament

We don't get enough people to support, going forward. We play with fear.

 

[Eccles Blue]

Bellingham needs to.learn to release it quicker. Phil looks like a young kid playing with the big boys at times. He's running about a lot but nothing is happening for him.

And when it does and he passes to Rice he decides instead of a straight pass either back or across to another player Rice decides to give us a twist and a turn as if to say look I’m playing with the football like a little kid!!!

 

[Jonas.shaffer]

He’s having to Cover Trippier

I agree he's missing an LB who can overlap, but in possession, he's playing where he wants to be centrally most of the time.
