Personally, its probably best not to criticise the players for fear of being labelled. Clearly the blame lies with the Manager. Inept, Defensive, Stubborn plus as we all know, he hates Grealish, wouldnt even let him take a pen.
Interesting, was listening to talk sport on the way home from work, A man city fan said Grealish is a great gifted player that they would Love in Manchester, why oh why would he not play him or take a pen. The guy thinks Southgate deliberately tried to keep him out of the headlines so as not to steal his thunder, the last thing he wanted was" Grealish wins it for England" no, Beaky was not letting that happen. Makes you think!
