U21 European Championship

Devils advocate here but Foden did look absolutely shattered after the last game to be fair and it’s only been a few days of recovery since. He’s flagged badly towards the end of games for city and that’s with having 80% possession and 11 men on the pitch he isn’t used to having to chase the ball constantly because your team mates can’t keep hold of it. Good thing is I now don’t feel compelled to watch now I know Phil isn’t starting.
 
Disagree there. would be even more of a jobs for mates situation. And whilst Southgate is trying to play the right way in most cases can you imagine if allardyce was still in charge? He would have the likes of Davies and Nolan in charge with the brief of finding the biggest strongest guys out there and have them on 4 hour long ball heading drills


I’m not sticking up for Boothroyd here, i instantly commented on how stupid his subs were at the time, it was plain for everyone to see but he was heard numerous times encouraging them to play through midfield and keep the ball when they could, he could also be heard telling foden to harvest his energy where he could as he was guilty of aimlessly chasing down balls on his own at times. He clearly isn’t a very good coach and made some shocking decisions but they are kids who were dead on their feet a man down trying to see out a game, it’s natural for some of them to lose their confidence on the ball
Fair comment that.
 
Looks like he’s left a few first teamers out tbf, not that it makes it any better.
 
Managing his game time... we drop points and we are out you Muppet.
On the button.
Words fail me
Foden clearly has the 'wrong 'agent or plays for the wrong club team...
It's pathetic. .I read with interest bbc online quoting the manager saying that the palace full back being chased by utd is unsettled and they will look after him if he needs to talk to utd during the tournament ......I wonder if he deemed suitable for tonight's match.
Something is rotten in the state of Denmark. ...when you have the best young player in England, dropped, rested whatever..after scoring the best international goal for England at any level for over a decade..Ffs.what is it with England and Foden .it's like they are trying to make him not fit.Bizzare handling of genuine world class talent.The lad just wants to play ..and doesn't need some 3rd rate twunt of a manager ,with no medals to speak of,hindering his progression.
What game plan is the fa bum boy and his sidekick gonna come out with tonight? Deluded prick of a manager.rant over ;)
