A lot of lessons to learn today.
They are just walking through our defence and they thankfully have fuck all upfrontYou'd be pissed off if Willis and Hyam dropped a couple of clangers like that let alone players who are supposed to be the best in the country.
To be fair though, we left out 7 players who would have normally played.Just how shit were we tonight, appalling defending and really sloppy mistakes all night. Fuck all upfront either
Like we aren’t that good and Southgate is not the right man? Boring football, one bit of good play tonight in the build up to Lingards disallowed goal the rest just bilge. The bloke has been given a free ride cause of how lucky he got last year.A lot of lessons to learn today.
I thought this was a big tournament for England?To be fair though, we left out 7 players who would have normally played.
Oh,and Delph is not even approaching anything like international level.
The difference when Henderson replaced him was quite palpable.
And you have to be sensible.Sometimes you just gotta get rid of the ball.
Love the idea of playing out from the back but you need the player's to do it.
Yep, but it was just all the Champions League players and obviously Southgate thought they were too tired to start tonight.I thought this was a big tournament for England?
We looked worse when Kane came on, think the obsession with certain players based on their name needs to stop before it gets silly.
Pretty sure Wilson would have caused them more issues.
...on the contrary, I believe they're massive member's.They’re not members

Sensationalist bollocks.Like we aren’t that good and Southgate is not the right man? Boring football, one bit of good play tonight in the build up to Lingards disallowed goal the rest just bilge. The bloke has been given a free ride cause of how lucky he got last year.
Foden instead of Delph might have made a hell of a difference.I'd liked to have seen Maddison and/or Foden in the middle of the park as then there would have been someone capable of releasing Sterling or Rashford and breaking their lines. Once the Dutch pushed their whole team forward we ended up playing poor man's ticky tacky (excuse spelling! all around the edge of our own area, and didn't have the capacity to adjust tactics. Even a long ball would have had their back 4 turned, then we could have pushed up. You have to be able to adapt if Plan A doesn't work.

Since the world cup we have beaten Spain and Croatia.England are still shite we can not beat anybody decent, just proved it in the last world cup.
He got lucky. The draw and route to the semifinals was kind to him and the minute England came up against any sort of quality they were undone.Sensationalist bollocks.
Bet you weren’t saying that last summer when it was ‘coming home’.
When Southgate first got appointed I thought it was another safe appointment and the wrong one at the time, however, what Southgate has done in a short space of time is impressive.
He’s completely changed our style of play, has integrated many young players, has started getting them playing like a team again and this is going to take time and there was always going to be games when it didn’t work.
England in two semi finals in two years? I’ll take that all day long!
Same as me. I look back and think what a lunatic I used to be, always getting involved in fights at games in the 70's and 80's. It was a case of fight or flight !does ruin it for the real fans like CJ. When I was a young bloke I used to get involved but I do look back and think .. what a prick I was. Lucky to have not got punished far more than I did and although I brought shame on my family and my Dad in particular....it’s a bit of a running joke in the family now.
I’d never take my kids to an England away game..... just not worth the risk.

His mistake last night was going with players like Kane over young, fresh players. All of his subs killed any attacking momentum we had.
Does that really count as an actual semi final? World Cup yes.

All of his subs? I thought Henderson for Delph improved these dramatically, as Delph didn't even seen capable of even getting the ball under control.His mistake last night was going with players like Kane over young, fresh players. All of his subs killed any attacking momentum we had.
