Just watching Turkey they are some team, really impressed with them much more pace and tempo than us and they defend so well!It's incredibly frustrating to watch England stumble about in tournaments.
It's rarely enjoyable even though you can't help but watch it and hope we muddle our way through.

It's not Southgate's fault France and Belgium couldn't win their group but we did.We have had one easy mother fucking draw again ain't we?

Think of the final though, no need to sit through the match, just watch the pens at the end......I'm hoping England and France both draw their next games 0-0 and win on penalties, might end up being the worst final ever on paper when you consider their routes to the final
Would be funny but arid viewing

When did I blame Southgate for the draw?It's not Southgate's fault France and Belgium couldn't win their group but we did.
I'll give you a clue I didn't.

Thought Foden was fine today. Lots of running and some good moments. Problem is not getting him the ball quick enough or just passing it into him not close enough to control, turn and run. His passing has been a little conservative but he was nothing happening ahead of him.
Just compare how England play compared to the goal Turkey just scored. They had three players attacking that cross on the back post. We've barely had three players in the box all tournament.
First half was much better today without really creating anything. Kane & Bellingham should be benched but we are a moments team and they are the two most likely to be moment players. It's incredible how they can both just disappear from a game.
Made up for Saka though. His goal was placed perfectly. First though was that the goalie didn't even dive but he was getting nowhere near it

Interesting a day or two ago Foden and said he feels for Southgate a bit because in training Southgate is always telling them to press but that is not happening on the pitch
you can see Foden is really the only player looking to press but none of the others do and there's no point in just one player doing it. he was working bollocks off for quite a lazy team.
I'm sure that won't go unnoticed with Southgate if he is genuinely trying to get them to press in training and they're just not doing it on the pitch

Turkey currently winning, we may have to overcome the 42nd best team in the world next.
