Why is Ian Wright wearing a push bikers helmet?
Stopping the season for this shite boils my piss
And we'll be doing it again in about a month for what I'm sure will be two completely pointless friendlies.
On a serious note , we dont have a proper test before the tournament , we probably would have been best playing a france or an Argentina in October rather than Wales.. so tuchel can see how his setup works against a top side
Btw , not a fan of madueke at all , 0 goals or assists since January so begs the question how hes getting selected over somebody like Bowen ?
In qualification, Southgate set records for goals scored. I went to a 5-0 demolition of Albania in 2020 (?) and we played superbly, even though it was a 3-4-3.Südtor managing to make England even more boring than his predecessor is one hell of an achievement
I’m not necessarily fussed by the number of goals scored, it’s the performances and more generally the clinging on to a tedious style of play that is falling out of favour. Teams are rediscovering that it’s more entertaining and dangerous to pass and move and shoot at the goal at higher tempos.In qualification, Southgate set records for goals scored.

I’m in two minds. On the ‘optimistic’ side, you don’t get style points for demolishing sides and the only important thing is getting the points to qualify. On the other hand, everything has looked laboured against low quality opposition and we looked terrible v Senegal. Our highest ranked opponent before the tournament starts.
Not trusting Carsley could turn out to be a huge mistake. We all panicked after one result and Carsley should be a leading contender for the job going into 2028 imo.
With respect there are many different players now .. some by choice ofcourse .In qualification, Southgate set records for goals scored. I went to a 5-0 demolition of Albania in 2020 (?) and we played superbly, even though it was a 3-4-3.

Southgate was getting poor results and performances in the end too
I’m not going to get drawn into the past but with respect, you got what you wanted and as of right now it’s not looking good.I’m not necessarily fussed by the number of goals scored, it’s the performances and more generally the clinging on to a tedious style of play that is falling out of favour.

We have the players to do that.

Tuchel should be a better manager (than Carsley and Southgate) but think we wrote of Carsley too soon to be honest. The style of football was good under him in the interim period.
We haven’t had a ‘full’ strength squad yet so want to resist the temptation to press the panic button.
Southgate himself recognised it was the right time to move on, just like I imagine Robins now recognises it was the right time at CCFC. I also wasn't among those arguing for Tuchel to get the job in his place.I’m not going to get drawn into the past but with respect, you got what you wanted and as of right now it’s not looking good.

Maybe international football just isn't for me thenI think tuchel might do well for us but again he might not , boring solid teams seem to do well in tournaments as england have shown before... surprised england fans are arguing against it considering we had that at our last couple of tournaments
Maybe international football just isn't for me then
Been my complaint for a number of years now, but there are now some elite teams showing that a different more entertaining way is also the antidote to this boring shite. I will say about Southgate's conservatism, if it did get us to the finals (and I still think we did so despite not because of it), we lost the finals we reached because he was far too defensive.Football in general at the highest level is a bit boring isnt it let's be honest
