Re: Euro 2024
Well, we won our first match (England) but not a great display, we're gonna have to do better.

Re: Euro 2024
We have seen it before with England, , the usual going in front, the typical complacency and sitting back, the very passive coach, very poor substitutions, the Gareth Southgate tactical inflexibility is there for all to see.
Only my view mind as l would love to see England win EURO 2024 but sadly l fear its all going to end in tears yet again.

Re: Euro 2024
Well there won't be tears here.
I view our chances of winning as small.
If it happens, I'll be elated, of not, well its as I expected.

Re: Euro 2024
So far I have seen every game.
The best so far is Türkiye v Georgia, as they said it was like a semi final game not the groups first game

Re: Euro 2024
They weren't very good were they? Southgate isn't the problem, the Premiership is. For English players this isn't the top level. For any other country, it is.

Re: Euro 2024
Another poor performance, another goal given away by stupid, sloppy, play.

I think Southgate is mainly the problem. The players he has at his disposal are the best in years but he constantly under achieves. The way England sat back after the goal was so negative and they paid the price.

Well they're not the England manager, nor likely to be, so thats not really relevant.
England looked poor again for most of the match, finally looked a bit more lively near the end, when it was too late.

That maybe so but their analysis was pretty much spot on with the armchair punter.
