    Targett for England

    Why on earth is Targett not playing left back for England!?

    They are trying Reece James at left back tonight after Trippier played there a couple of games.

    Targett is solid in every regard. What's going on?

    Also i'd like to see Burn given a chance.

    Suppose the general answer for this and so many perplexing England-related questions is because Southgate doesn’t have a fücking clue what he’s doing.

    Because southgate is useless and only picks his favourites.

    I think that sums it up nicely.

    (England’s greatest ever manager, mind)

    I hear Hungary have just got a second. With the talent he has available (a large part of which are nowhere near Mollineux tonight) it’s a disgrace. Get ready for the ‘couldn’t handle the heat’ comments for the WC.

    I think he'll go all Steve Bruce in his post match interview-'you always get this with England', 'look at what i've done', 'it's not nice but that's the England manager's job'.

    Aye, he's done well to get us to a semi-final and a final,,,but, in truth, a more forward-thinking manager would have got us the the WC final and won the Euros. His shitty style has only ever been tolerated and, as soon as the results haven't been able to hide the performances, the gloves are off with the fans.

    He should be using these players in a more attack-minded way but he's too cautious and defensive-only ever appreciated if you get the results.
