England v Germany | Euro 2020 Last 16

[waspish]

He’s a coward of a manager.

Leopards don’t change there spots he has always been a scared manager a defensive manager!

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

We’re basically hoping that Sterling and Saka can run the channels and create something from a Kane flick on, whilst relying on no fuck ups at the back. Going to be a long 90 mins.

Low has gone for excalty the same formation. This will be painful to watch

At least Low is consistent, they've used 3 at the back with wing backs in every game so far.

Surprised Werner is starting for Germany, if England sit back as we expect, then there is likely no space for him, and Walker will neutralize him.

Someone more technical like Gnabry might be better, although perhaps the speed of Werner is preferred because neither Muller or Havertz are quick.

The best form of defence is attack,play to our strengths and let a mediocre German outfit worry about us.

I want the best players on the pitch,i want to be entertained,that set up does not do that.

If the best tactical conversation you can have is quoting 60 year old idioms I can only imagine you hit the beer 4 hours ago.

There's a pretty simple choice here. Play a formation you've already worked on for years, the players know and the Germans have had bad results against every time they've played it.

Or play 433 all out attack like Portugal and get ratfucked.

Their wing backs are far far better than ours and i fear thats where it will be won and lost.

 

[kippaxwarrior]

BBC trying to be positive staying it's a 3-4-3 formation.

No it's fucking not

 

[Blu1]

If Southgate loses this I can see him walk. Nobody gets his selection or reason for change in system.

 

[melrose40yarder]

Boring safety 1st manager cant imagine another team having the attacking talent we have and starting them on the bench.Southgate is League 1 level at best.

 

[Woody135]

Why was Foden not in the squad for the CR again?

This. Convenient excuse
