I agree they were awful.
My point being that trying to play like Man City with lesser players is just silly.
You could see the writing was on the wall in the first half but they still fannied about at the back.

I should also say that in order to play like that the midfield and front players need to create options so it's not simply down to the defensive errors per se.

Southgate has to take some responsibility.
