I’ve always thought taking the time keeping away from the ref is the best solution. He has enough to concentrate on as it is.
Clock should be stopped everytime there’s a substitution, injury and a goal celebration, then restarted when play resumes.
Take a leaf out of Rugby league and sound a hooter on the 90th minute.

I agree. Simple isn't it?

It is hilarious how shockingly negative Southgate is. I’m not sure I’d take him over Rob Page to be perfectly honest, given the talent disparities between the teams.

The issue with England tonight is glaringly obvious just like it has been every game, he’s got players in key positions who are never in the right positions for the tactic he’s trying to play, and he still hasn’t fixed it.

Probably a take that is going to age like sour milk as they settle in after the groups but it’s just utterly bizarre to me.

Anyone else notice how far Pickford is outside his box ?

They are so dull, boring and predictable. They almost look frozen again and they haven’t even been challenged by anyone decent yet.
Same old England eh? Wasn’t Southgate supposed to be taking the hand brake off finally? Looks like the brakes have seized up.

They are a dire watch. I only take any interest if they look like getting beat.

Plan A was keep the ball and hope they get out the way. Plan B is swing hopeful balls in to nobody.

And yet they get rewarded with the easier side of the draw

Luckiest team in international football, just look at the 2 goals the have scored!

England - boring. Scotland - boring. Wales - boring.

Same post from me as for the previous game: England have many excellent players but they are not even a good team.

I'd be mad if I were an England fan. With Wales, I think you accept we have a lot of players with deficiencies and results often go against us but England have no excuse on that front.

That idiot Sam Matterface said when a lucky deflection gave Kane a goal against Denmark, "It's about time England had a bit of luck" Talk about one-eyed.

All the better teams play a back 2

England 4 at back and the DM carries the ball forward.

There’s no one further up the pitch.

Familiar story with England alike to what they called the golden generation who all hated each other back in the day due to club allegiances….didnt think this lot were like it but they probably think they are better than they are and can’t adapt to play as a team

Yep, and their 9 and 10 both like to regularly drop deep to get the ball, it’s hardly rocket science.

Once again though the draw has fallen perfectly for them. They will probably get far based on a couple of 1-0s in extra time and everyone will say next time it’s coming home for sure.
