England v Brazil | Friendly | Match Thread

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 !
 
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

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...

Yes but think what they will have learned under the tutelage of Saint Gareth of the Waistcoat.
When my eldest was at university and put on placement, she complained to her tutor that the woman she was sent to work with was terrible and everything seemed to be wrong
The tutor said "Excellent. You're learning exactly what not to do"
 
Pointless friendly

Still, you never really fancy us to beat a decent side, as we've found out in the tournaments when we get a good side. Southgate just hasn't got the tactical ability to get over the line.

Tonight he can hide behind the fact we weren't at full strength but for me that's not an excuse. That's the reality of football, you often don't get to pick your strongest 11.

I'm sure it'll be the same in the summer. We'll beat who we should and again come unstuck against the first proper side we play.

No too arsed really, I won't expecting much in the summer. I'll just be wanting the season to start again to watch city.
 
Bellingham gets to play wherever he wants, no real position, everyone else are just bit part players.
As for Chilwell, has he actually kicked a ball before?
I'll go back to not being arsed about the national team, I think.

The commentators on the Brazilian broadcast were laughing at chilwell saying he can't kick the ball straight
