Nonsense. Some were appalling like Bellingham, Saka and Mount. McGuire played well.

Nobody was appalling or particularly good, just consistent bang mediocre. I suppose Slabhead not making a gaffe is progress for him

What relevance does that have to an abysmal performance?

Southgate proud of defensive resilience against the USA. Sums him up in a sentence-talking about the US like they're Brazil 1970

I still maintain Southgate won't be offered a top job once he's finished with England.. a tactical genius that some think he is

Not sure what Arabic for "we lost 6-2 to that shite?" is, but I bet its being uttered across the living rooms of Iran a lot right now.

Awful performance, awful team selection was always going to be a tighter game than Iran, awful subs. Just terrible.

He’s “really pleased” with that. FFS

I am no fan of McGuire but some people decide how well players play purely based on whether they rate them. So for some people Maguire cannot play well. You see it in Cov match ratings. For some people their dislike of players prevents them seeing when they play well.

Brazil 1970 were terrible, poor fitness regimes and didn't eat right.

I said it was a poor performance. I also said it was a better result for us than them which prompted your comment.

Some managers you think that’s just for the public and they’ll tear a strip in the dressing room. Southgate you know he’s back there telling them all they were great.

It was him saying it was unrealistic to think we’d beat Iran AND USA. Sorry, it’s not at all. We are expected to beat those teams. It’s not unrealistic at all.

I got 3 in a row in the Southgate post-match interview bingo. USA are a good side, draw is a good result, a solid defensive performance.

I didn't hear any post match analysis - they put the disco on straight away.
That said, no amount of bon Jovi or right said fred would have obscured what I witnessed.
p.s. It's gonna be socks or knock off aftershave.

You need five in a row for a line mate.

Have you ever played bingo?

At least we’re in control of the group. The sheer temerity of thinking we’d beat USA.

Well I won a few days ago, so I can't be expected to win again. I think 3 is a good result.

Truly bizarre performance. Epitomised by Shaw taking forever to take the free kick towards the end.

Reminded me of the Cov game a few weeks ago when the team were ill. We were lethargic, with no urgency and well off the pace.
