Absolute joke that he's taken an unfit Shaw and not taking anyone capable of.playing left.back , Chilwell, livramento or even gomez better options than taking Trippier who had a poor season and is 3rd.choice right back , southgates squad has fucking baffled.meI hope he does get dropped cos he ain't gonna shine under that useless wanker who's pretending to be a manager.
He's getting dogs abuse for something that's not his fault.
That team is totally unbalanced.
It is loaded heavily on the right hand side and probably because he has to shoehorn Twunt in.
Saka and Twunt on that side leaves the team defensively weaker imo so the players pack that side of the pitch leaving the left side even more exposed.
When it should be the complete opposite.
You've got a right back playing left back and a central midfielder playing left wing.
Their the ones that need the support.
It's seems quite simple to me.
Drop Bellingham back slightly to play along side Rice and play Foden or Palmer just in front of the two.
Stick Gordon or Eze on the left.
What you lose from Bellingham in terms of attacking play you gain in having a balanced team.
This should've been done months ago but the waistcoat wanker has spent nearly a year trying to shoehorn Twunt into the team, he's also wasted games 'having a look' at players, when he should've been working on his best starting 11, the balance of the team and how to get them to play together.
I'm sick of hearing 'when Shaws fit'
Shaw hasn't played since February, he's still training on his own.
The joke of a manager has wasted 8 years in charge of England and to this day they still play the same shit boring football they did on day one.
Stay on the bench Phil, better still I'd come home cos it's quite clearly gonna be all your fault when the useless **** in charge fails again.
Also, Gundogan has just scored the exact type of goal that Foden scored against West Ham on the last day and also against United in the 6-3 (to name but two).The worst bit about Sunday was that you could see it from the moment Southgate announced his team.
This also links to the myth that City have two World Class players for every position. If that's true then why is Grealish not in Germany, at least as a substitute?
City don't have a Saka type right sided midfielder, and if Saka plays well (as he did for about 15-20 minutes) then it's almost inevitable that Foden won't touch the ball, especially when Bellingham is playing to the gallery with his self indulgence, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but again, not conducive to the recycling possession game that Foden, Pep, and City all prefer.
I'm almost hoping that Foden isn't picked v Denmark, because you can guarantee that whoever plays in his position will also appear peripheral.
Not so fast, mate. I'd happily wager the media would use the opportunity to beatify him like they did with Lauren James.Can't wait for the press to turn when Bellingham gets sent off for being a bellend...
Beckham says hi. He was the face of England until he decided to kick out and get sent off.Not so fast, mate. I'd happily wager the media would use the opportunity to beatify him like they did with Lauren James.
Once the press, with the backing of the FA, has decided a player is the new "face of England " they can do no wrong even if it's on display for the world to see.
AND THE PLAYER ON THE RIGHT WING, IS err LEFT FOOTED. !Fucking cunts mianing about Foden and all the while igniring the reason he played out if position was to fill a big Grealish shaped hole that the waistcoat created.
It’s not a conspiracy. Southgate is just very weak and easily influenced by the tabloid media. He doesn’t know his best team. Anyone who thinks Trent is better than Foden in midfield has no credibility as a Manager.I don't get the conspiracy theory myself, this one went waaaaay over my head. Southgate deliberately sabotaging Phil's career? Weird take by some here
Unchanged starting 11 if the rumours are true.If Phil is dropped I'm banning Ingerland from my head
Yeah but Trippier can take set pieces don't you know?Absolute joke that he's taken an unfit Shaw and not taking anyone capable of.playing left.back , Chilwell, livramento or even gomez better options than taking Trippier who had a poor season and is 3rd.choice right back , southgates squad has fucking baffled.me
Yeah,thought he’d start tonight. Quiet game and will probably get hooked for Gordon and then dropped for the 3rd game.Unchanged starting 11 if the rumours are true.
Unchanged starting 11 if the rumours are true.
Phil’s time is very much numbered with southgate as manager and the media pile on making him the reason England look so bad. Last start tonight and then the changes will be made.Yeah,thought he’d start tonight. Quiet game and will probably get hooked for Gordon and then dropped for the 3rd game.
Is he balls swayed by the media. The notion is quite frankly ridiculous.I don't think Southgate is swayed by the social media world. He commented on the fact Phil was instrumental in our win with a lot of good work off the ball and defensively, even if that's not the side of the game people want to see him doing. He knows he's an excellent player.
Shaw coming back in at some stage might fix the balance a bit more and help Phil be more effective wide left, but I still can't see Southgate pushing Bellingham deeper even though that's the answer in my opinion. I think he'll stick with trying to get harmony from this group but will probably make a few more changes this time to manage workload. I expect Phil to come off after 60-70 mins whether he's playing well or not.
