England v Scotland | Euro 2020 Group Stage

[MaineDAWG2008]

Southgate V S Clarke. I mean it doesn't get bigger than that. What a matchup, 2 of the finest managers there is. To be fair, S Clarke did a number on Southgate.

England aren't fluent or slick enough in attack. Croatia game was the same, they were solid in midfield with Rice and Phillips giving away nothing, and the defence looked secure, but going forward they were flat. How many times to the front 3 link up or does Mount get forward and link the play?

Celebrate a draw.
It wasn't that long ago City fans celebrated a draw at the swamp.
That's what you do when you have had nothing to celebrate for years.

To be fair, we’d just been promoted and United were at their peak.

This England team has Leeds WestHam Villa Everton and Spurs players in it, Scotland have players from the United Liverpool Arsenal and Chelsea.

 

[borassic]

they’re not both defensive midfielders.

Mount doesnt play there for Chelsea and neither does Grealish or Foden for their clubs.

Henderson would play if fit, and the other option Bellingham is 17. its the best option we have

You forgetting about the *actual* defensive midfielders we played? Or being obtuse ?

Sadly we are stuck with him for the next decade. An FA yes man who pretends to be Mr Nice Guy.

in my lifetime I can only remember 1 England team that looked anything like a proper side, that was under Venables and he didn’t get a contract renewall because he wasn’t “the right sort”…

 

[cleavers]

Sterling was awful tonight

He wasn't great, but he wasn't worse than Rice or Kane.

 

[CC1]

A man who was too cowardly to take off Raheem.

Raz was ok - the problem was we had 2 defensive midfielders (Rice & Phillips) in front of 2 CHs & 2 FBs. Should have left Foden on & taken off Rice for Grealish.

Wasn’t happy with James either.

 

[Don Karleone]

Wouldn't bother me either, but it's just not even a sensible suggestion.

It isn't sensible, no. I'd still take the risk. I've had enough.

 

[blue saturday]

therewas no width at all from England.allthrough the middle,and Scotland just blocked all we had.

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

A man who was too cowardly to take off Raheem.

If that’s your bag. I’d look it as at more taking one of the 2 DMs he was insistent on against one of the worst teams in the competition.
