What more could we do that second half? Truthfully? We pressed constantly, we had a goal ruled out, Kane missed free header he always scores, Rice hit the post, other chances. we pressed and pressed, got the ball back constantly. Genuinely don’t know what more we could have done.

That has to be a wummer . Nobody could think that. You are more blinkered than Desert Orchid

Yep some of the players behaved like the dippers when they beat a lower placed team after being shit. I thought it was embarrassing but than again I have zero feelings for England.
As my reaction to bellend goal was ' oh fuck not him'

Exactly. I was sat with a mate who’d popped over and as it went in I said ffs not Bellingham please.

Interesting that Kane and Bellingham ‘posed’ for the cameras after the equaliser went in - what happened to grabbing the ball and trying to get a winner before the end?

Some people are really triggered by that photo. But it was the last kick of the game wasnt it? I mean 94th + minute. We had just saved our tournament I think.

Once we got the 2nd we defended it quite well too. We will see against the Swiss though, probably the first decent team we have faced in a while.

Play like Spain ? Or are you going to say we don't have the players to do that. As we certainly do!

The Swiss will be the best side England have faces since Brazil beat England in a friendly.

It'll be a tough game for England. The Swiss are not only a decent team but they're looking confident.

England might take in a bit of momentum from the highs of grinding it out in extra time against the mighty Slovakia, but if look under the cosh early on vs the Swiss then they'll revert to looking like they have done in every game.

Not one of England's performances yet is good enough to beat Switzerland and in reality they're nothing special either.

I'm not seeing any "growing into the tournament' from England. Just tough games against supposed "lesser" opposition.

They'll come unstuck.

We’re certainly not playing like Spain, they look way more cohesive and together and playing with a lot of confidence - I don’t think a change in whatever tactics you demand would suddenly make us play like them - then again who else is playing like Spain ? Always easy to point to a team that’s flying and demand we be like them.

We certainly have the players to play better than we are but play like Spain? I'm not sure. For a start we haven't got a midfielder that can even sniff the sweat around Rodri's bollocks.

Just goes to show it's all about them not the team.
Compare that to when City have needed goals, they grap the ball and run back to their half.
City are a team with no egos. England isn't a team and has to many egos.

No team that equalises with 30seconds of normal time left in a knockout game is gonna do that
 
It’ll all be over on Saturday. Southgate is a very limited manager with no bollocks.

Bellingham is decent, but is like the kid in the playground that will never release the ball, wants to play in every position and then it’s everyone else’s fault when he loses it.

Kane is a passenger in this set up.

He’s taken 1 left back that isn’t fit. Worth sacking on this alone.

He has young, fit, energetic players that haven’t had a sniff and he will not use them.

A decent manager wouldn’t allow his team to be in that position against a team that shouldn’t lay a glove on them. It wasn’t that England were unlucky yesterday, they were shite, predictable and slow. The Swiss are no mugs and will really fancy it.

Fuck off southgate.
 
Its just rince repeat every game. The same old set up that doesn't work the same lack of substitutions.

Southgates excuse for not making subs is clearly laughable. He thought we were creating chances and the team set up was working. Total fraud.

I heard this morning that even Stuart Pearce thought it wasn't working last night. And he's the dullest player manager out there.
 
Bizarre interviews from Southgate & Bellingham

They are so detached from reality & what fans think.

Southgate thinks character was there for everybody to see!

We got very lucky nothing else.

The guy is tactically the worst manager I have ever seen & Bellingham is all about himself

Slovakia fooked themselves up by not going for the kill against that shambles.

Players celebrating that last night should be ashamed we got away with it again last night ...........it wont happen again

this, i can only think that the celebrations were out of relief but dancing round like that after scraping through a game which you should have won comfortable is not a good look at all, by all means acknowledge the fans but dancing around like that is a no no.
