This is so similar to the Scotland game at the Euros. England got a win in the bag so laboured and poor, unable to deal with a well-organised and hungry opposition who should be more clinical.

England are wooden as feck. Need a new manager what a joke Southgate is.

All the wanking after we beat a shite Iran side. Everyone pretending we were actually a decent side :lol:

Mason Mount seriously should never have been taken.

The players can't use tiredness as an excuse for why they aren't pressing USA
Half got subbed off early in the previous game and not even half a season has been done

how the feck USA didn't beat Wales? I honestly didn't expect them to play this well.

As soon as the commentators said Southgate wasn't happy with conceding against Iran, I knew we were going to revert to his past ways.

Why is Mason Mount starting? Might as well play Lingard too. The fact he's starting over Foden is bewildering.

USA the most technical side here. England just punting the ball

Southgate playing the same 11 - should use some fresher legs. Need to make some subs for 2nd half.

I think Southgate has got into the England's players heads about never beating the US in a World Cup, not in a good way either. Definitely not used it as a motivation.

They had a great first half and then ran out of steam
Will be surprised if the same doesn't happen today

They've clearly been instructed not to press. This is a Gareth Southgate team.
