Will you be watching this in a Budapest pub CIB?
Promising front line and obviously great to see Pluckford back.
They aren't doing too bad CIB, they look more dangerous on the break and apart from Grealish and Foden we are so pedestrian, more side and back passes than forwards.
Bit OTT by the police wading into the Hungarian fans with batons ..soft cnuts !
That was dire, Southgate is clueless, you have 70% possession and you take off your two best forwards. it was worse than Sean's tactics.
I thought Grealish was the best player on the pitch and I cannot understand why he was substituted. By the look on his face I think Grealish could not understand it either,
If we took it as gospel with what Matterface and Dixon kept ramming down our throats that Hungary played well I'd be satisfied.
But most can understand we just wasnt good enough to break them down, as Vintage stated why take off a very creative player in Grealish and throw on an average one ?
Kane and Sterling did nothing throughout the game yet both stayed on for 3 quarters of it ? with Henderson being one of the replacements who IMO was as bad as subbing Grealish.
He's a poor Manager, he's just a mouthpiece for the FA, when "his" teams excite me and can compete with the big boys more often than not I'll get behind him, but it will never happen, we have some good players its just Southgate who is holding us back
Southgate wants to break down a well organised, packed defence, so he takes off our best, most creative player Jack Grealish, the player who looked likeliest to do it, and leaves on Kane and Sterling, who were about as much use as two chocolate fireguards. I don't know what it is that Gareth has between his ears, but a football brain it most certainly is not.
I have just spoken to my Hungarian FA friend who was at the match and she told me that there was not a HUngarian flag to be seen where the trouble was in the ground. They were all Polish flags being shown and one wonders whether they were trying to get Wembley closed for our final home game, particularly after the problems with the Euro Finals.
