Everyone seems to have a plan.
Certainly so with the majority of sides I’ve seen.
How comfortable most of the others seems to be on the ball, the passing and movement makes us look prehistoric in comparison.
Half of me is hoping we don’t get any further, if this faker somehow fumbles us into the semis it’ll be the worst thing in the long run.
I hope he has the integrity to resign as soon as this fiasco comes to an inevitable end.

Selfish - useless - inept- negative t wat!
We will get past Slovenia then reset. Seen it all before. I don’t expect us to win it but I think we might have a great game or 2 yet. Too many teams in this format for me. 3rd place teams can go thru with 2 points bollox. Got all the jocks semi hard .its the only semi they will see. Let’s keep the faith then hammer the ex viler afterwards. Trouble is who takes over. Potter, Howe,Quote:

Trouble is since 1966 we think weve got a divine right to win everything. Weve more than got the players and I can see why so many want Gareth to go. If we werent negative we could walk this tournament from what ive seen so far. Lets hope tuesday offers more.

Divine right? One nil up against Italy in front of your own supporters and he sits back. No wonder we lost that match!
Sit back being the keys words! No doubt after the game on Tuesday Slovenia will be a great side too!
England bore me and we have fantastic players and they are held back by negative tactics. I have never liked Grealish because he was a Viler but only a complete f uckin idiot would leave that talent at home!
Gallagher coming into the side sums Southgate up - Clueless like Darren Moore was who has found his level!
Gallagher is England’s Andy Johnson.
Tremendous work ethic and runs around like a maniac but after winning the ball he tries to give it back.
Mainoo is a far better player, Stevie Wonder has more vision than Southgate.
You can’t disrespect any teams in this tournament. Georgia the lowest ranked team would cause anyone problems as they have done, they’re not championship level. Their intensity desire and quality shone v the Czechs. We do have one of the best squads by far but it’s not a given, we have to work for it. That’s my point really. We have the quality but sometimes don’t have the mentality. Maybe if we were a poorer nation we wouldn’t feel so Flippin entitled. Maybe it would actually mean that much that all the stops would be pulled out for every match.Quote:

You always seem very late to realise the problems of managers Boingy, i’ve noticed this a lot. Pulis, (maybe Pardew), Clarke, Bruce, Ismail and Bilic. All of these when their honeymoon period ended, i’m pretty sure you were the last one to be defending them 😄
Now it’s the case with Dimgate. You are way too positive about our teams and mangers.

It would be soul destroying to have a rigid 4-4-2 type manager, bodies behind the ball and a stolid style of play.
I like the way Newcastle play under Howe and Potter is very highly rated amongst other managers from what I’ve been reading recently.
I worry with the pair of them that they lack personality and charisma and the ability to kick the FA and ruffle feathers.
Pep would be top choice for me but I don’t think we’ll get him.
Klopp has the personality and the style of play to excite the fans.
