Euro 2024

[Letters]

Indeed and his past record is irrelevant, it's about now, plus a lot of those goals were dodgy pels and tap-ins

It is about now, but as I said his record last season suggests he’s not a busted flush.
I couldn’t give a shit how the goals go in.
We were poor today. We were poor with Kane on the field, we were poor when he wasn’t.
It’s so painful watching England in these tournaments. So laboured.

Dreadful stuff but England are lucky they're in such a soft group, they'll pub their way through for a bit ofc, for me i hope the whole sorry mess is over asap and we can enjoy decent football

[HCZ_Reborn]

As I stated Kane coming off the pitch made hardly any difference, not because Watkins is not necessarily a better option but because the ball isn’t getting up the pitch quick enough

Rice was poor today but ultimately he doesn’t trust Guehi behind him, or Alexander Arnold/Gallagher to the side of him. Equally there’s no overlap between wingers and full backs. Felt sorry for Eze when he came on, zero support

[Marc Overmars]

Bizarre how you’ve got so many players out there who can press from the front and make runs in behind, yet we see none of that for England.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

That’s on Southgate


Next match for me


Pickford, Gomez, Stones, Walker, TAA, Rice, Bellingham, Palmer, Saka, Watkins, Eze

Player ratings

Pickford 6 - Stop punching you prick

Walker 5 - Doesn’t overlap with Saka often enough and gives the ball away too much

Guehi 3 - Not good enough at this level, Rice seems to shit himself on the ball because of this guy behind him

Stones 5 - Not doing enough to protect his centre back partner

Trippier 4 - Fuck off

Rice 5 - Putting out too many fires, although was shockingly casual on the ball himself


Alexander Arnold 3 - Fuck off and Fuck off again


Bellingham 5.5 - Anonymous


Foden 5.5 - Still being a sulking prick


Saka 7 - Our only attacking outlet for much of the game, so obviously Southgate takes him off


Kane 5 - Gets a 5 for the goal, but he’s committed to being the wandering Jew



Subs


Bowen 4 - Cunt

Gallagher 5 - Effort is there but not good enough


Eze 5 - Completely isolated


Watkins 6 - Raw pace would have been an asset to us, shame he hardly saw the ball after five minutes of being on

Clive Tyldesley commentating, he can have a go at the Spanish players for not singing the lyrics to their anthem again.

Did he actually do that?

Moron

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Williams should score!
