England v Brazil | Friendly | Match Thread

[Goater=Legend]

It’s a bit of that, it’s a bit of the positions he’s taking up really don’t have enough space. He doesn’t play particularly well for England, it’s not just the use of him.

Think he needs to come short and demand the ball off Rice and whichever clogger is next to him. Does look like hes expecting it like he'd usually get the ball from our players.

The fact Klopp said in a recent interview when he said no Gomez is the England squad and sort of laughed in disbelief as he said it and a day or 2 later, Gomez is in the squad after 4 years out shows the Waistcoat is a yes man and panders to others.
With Kane out, tonight he could have tried something different with Phil ie play in the middle with Bellingham but nope, shoe horned him onto the right again

Agree and the idiot still insists on 2 holding players in centre mid which is so negative.I'm not being funny but anyone who picks Connor Gallagher for a squad, let alone a starting 11, should be sacked immediately !

Absolute bag of shite.

Literally a penalty shoot out away from winning a tournament, can’t get any closer to winning that that. He took us further than any manager we’ve had since 1966.

you really need a reboot mate - if you were married, you'd be forgiving your missus for whoring it out year after year... literally, won fuck all

Gareth is a safe pair of hands. He doesn’t make any waves. That’s why the FA like him. His football and tactics are bang average. I hope to dear god he does become United’s next manager

Fucking international, and pointless, friendlies.

2 of City's most important players end up playing a full 90 minutes, and the other gets injured after 20 minutes.

Yes but think what they will have learned under the tutelage of Saint Gareth of the Waistcoat.

It’s so easy to just point at any manager and say ‘he won’t win us anything ‘ because the likelihood is we wont. Regardless who we have in the dugout.
1. We have no devine right regardless of how good the players are.
2. Because it’s tournament football, anyone can knock out anyone, only takes a mistake, or a bad ref decision and that’s it you’re out.

Man City didn’t win champions league for ages and they have the best manager and best players in the world. Football is a fickle game. Hence I’d rather just enjoy it and ignore the nonsense and outrage should we dare to lose.

we are v unlucky/badly managed...
