Roy found a tshirt that's all the colours of his beard
Day 6: Wales vs Iran | Qatar vs Senegal | Netherlands vs Ecuador | England vs USA
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
The lads in their blazers and shirts, Roy in a t-shirt you wear when cutting the grass.
We're too slow and lacking intensity on and off the ball, constantly passing the ball between our two centre backs and struggling to get it through to the midfield. Hopefully a better second half.
I vote for Alan Curbishley.
mount is the most pointless sack of shit ive seen
Gareth Southgate wouldn't brush his teeth without wearing a condom.
Kane should be getting on the ball more but Mount is in that space. I'd change the system so that Kane drops a bit deeper and looks to feed Rashford and Saka.
England keeping the US in it so far.
Southgate won't change anything until the 60th minute at the earliest. Even Wales realised they were getting battered and changed it up at HT.
I rarely watch England, is it roughly how they generally play?
Was it talkshite saying Rice was better than Casemiro? Did they see Casemiro breaking the lines last night? Rice is breaking down under a half US press. We have nothing in midfield. Can't let Bellingham off for that either but he is only 19.
Crazy the swings in opinions you get from game to game in a world cup. Inevitable with the short prep and just a few games but all of them being important - and then the difference in opposition level, and effort/confidence within those games.
Wales were not dominant, the only chance they really had was the free header from Kiefer Moore from the corner, wasn't particularly concerned as a fan until the penalty. Wales were lucky to come away with a point.
I hope we continue to target Maguire. He’s so poor it’s shocking.
Amen
Against better opposition yes.
Didn't expect it against the US. But I suppose they've caught up with us.
Kane is good in a hybrid role if you’re built for it at club level. You can have him there and save your money on excellent attacking midfielders but having him drop deep when you already have those midfielders is ridiculous. Always has been
I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if the reason Mount plays is because of the relationship him and Rice have. 
Obviously it helps he’s a decent player but Southgate is a weirdo that values that shite higher than actual quality at times.

Do any non-Chelsea fans rate Mount? He's absolute bobbins.
Mount reminds me so much of Van De Beek.
Just this ghostly presence who drifts through games.

US going forward are too agile and quick for England's backline and with the extra midfield player, US are winning the midfield.
US shape is really good and with England trying to pass the ball into the net, while having to commit Bellingham and Shaw forward, US is find space to bring the ball all through midfield rather easily.

Yes. We fold like a deck of cards under any kind of pressing. Doesn't even need to be a full press.
Arguably England's best player so far
quite forthright from Neville on Foden there, he clearly should be playing
England are stagnant for a long time. Sacks Southgate after this wc and employ Eddie Howe.
Can't make fun of England. I think we never beat the US in the world cup. One defeat and a draw I think
Hope not. May as well forfeit the game then.
I see Grealish for Sterling and Dier for Mount and switching to a negative 5 at the back.
It's been lethargic shite for at least 2 years now, doesn't matter how far we've been getting in tournaments.
Kane needs the right system to be effective. Such a shame this hugely talented squad is being squandered with horse face.
Yes, against any team that is tactically disciplined (so basically anyone in this tournament barring Iran).
feck me, if there was ever a half of football I thought people would give him a break, it was this.
Alas no, tis all his fault again.
How the feck do you come to the decision to play this absolute useless tosser mount, when you have Foden and Rashford on the bench.
Just a cowardly manager.
Just a cowardly manager.
Shame it wasn't cutting his beard.
Sterling is just so underwhelming.
Foden or Rashford or both need bringing on.

Why? From what I'm watching, England aren't short of a pacy attacker, they're short of quality in midfield. Rashford doesn't help them control the midfield any better.
Come back in the NT? I like your thinking! Should be up for the job...
put the beer down
