Watched France tonight. They're having the same problems as us. Great options everywhere albeit they have better strength in depth but they didn't look like they had any plan. They looked completely open at the back. Take out pogba and kante their midfield looks devoid of creativity. If we play them in the quarters I wouldn't be too worried right now but that's a long way off

Hes becoming Mowbray in that his armour is coming off. Now he's open to criticism he's flailing. He got stroppy with fay carruthers on TalkSport on Friday night with whome he's usually got a good relationship

Southgate Says toney unlikely to play tomorrow. Wtf is the point in calling him up? We are relegated. Nothing to play for. Just try out a few squad players. Also southgate's baffling quote 'If we want to play four at the back there's a risk because we'd be playing a right-footer on the left and then we'd be criticised for having the wrong balance.’’ hey why not play Shaw or chilwell at leftback. Genius

Obviously not forgotten but a great peice on tugay. https://talksport.com/football/936758/tugay-smoked-20-a-day-blackburn-age-stats-premier-league/?utm_medium=Social&utm_campaign=talksportfacebook&utm_source=Facebook&fbclid=IwAR2F4P67JNFu7u3fohbc6Wg7q-YulFMzwXQHbB9FHkXII5LH4q9Yb00nTE4#Echobox=1663741723

Cherno samba and maxim tsigalko weren't just championship manager legends

Hes using the usual platitudes. Its football talk. Football hierarchy are like politicians they say one thing in public but the truth stays behind closed doors

Luca toni signed for rovers every season

Scholes was criminally wasted

I don't think Southgate rates chilwell. He is always second or third choice

What a pathetic post. The st George's flag is our national flag first off. Every country has its fair share of yobs. The Hungarians, Bulgarians chanting racist monkey noises at Black players. Racism is rife in Italian football. So there's a few English fans who can't behave themselves, there's also alot that do.

I thought he did more in 20 minutes than sterling or foden did in 90

Kane might not be as pleasing on the eye but hes a proven tournament scorer unlike Owen or Rooney

I would say current keeper is far better. Kane is better than Owen or Rooney. Rightback options much better. We had a world class team back then but they didn't have the passion to play for England like these players do

I don't agree about the quality of the squad. We have far more strength in depth than 04'06

I would say Wilshire but injuries robbed us of him

Until we produce midfielders that can control possession we will never win anything. Bellingham is a pretty good passer but he's not a modric or de bruyne. Rice is a good all action midfielder but hes not a passer of the ball. The best English midfielder who could control a game was carrick and we badly underused him

Luckily 2 teams qualify for the euros automatically

No I'm saying I won't watch Any football. Its all getting boring

Rovers are just as turgid as England so I would rather no football

I think walker was unfit as he's only just come back from injury

Southgate deserves credit for giving us some great memories but like Mowbray (who didn't give us many great memories ) he's run his course

When was the last time we had a good tactical manager? Hoddle?

Maguire and dier have been solid. Its the lack of urgency going forward that's cost us

Think I'll give the Germany game a miss. Can't be doing with watching England anymore with Southgate in charge

No urgency. No closing down. I wanna pull my hair out
