chrisjpainter Posted Tuesday at 20:40 Report Share Posted Tuesday at 20:40 I can confirm the windows are clean and the other game for this group is every bit as bad. Germany have scored more goals than this whole group combined so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JKD Posted Tuesday at 20:53 Report Share Posted Tuesday at 20:53 Can any of our players, hand on heart, say they've put in a proper shift ?! I think I know the answer 🤨 I've seen shop window dummies with better moves !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly it’s only a game the way this country expects up to win the euros and the World Cup is laughable sometimes our players are to well fed monetary wise and don’t need to win to get rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minky Posted Tuesday at 22:29 Author Report Share Posted Tuesday at 22:29 I don't believe that the performance is related to how much they get paid and to a fair degree the performance is more related to pride of performance. What I do think is in poor leadership. How is it that the fans and even the pundits want certain other players to start but the managers stick with the same old same old. Lack of leadership.

Apparently they only get c £2000/match and donate that to charity. It's the prestige of winning these tournaments that they strive for,,,, sometimes 🤦 TBH, apart from a couple or three or four, the players fielded so far have looked very lethargic and like they just don't want to be there 🤷 And yes, we're through to the next phase, onwards and upwards and all that, but we need to step up massively to continue,,,, or just more of the same and early flights home for a couple of week's rest 😴😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the form they are in though, they are hardly likely to be receiving that 🙄🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should be playing for pride, for the honour of representing their country, they looked like they'd been dropped and made to play non league on a Tuesday night, ridiculous.

I think the issue is the formation and playing great individual players out of position. We have two no.10 on the pitch, rice is a CDM and needs to play that role properly. Trent is a RB not a CAM. Playing players out of position is showing, just so he can play his preferred players rather than the right players. We have hungry young talent that showed in the last 5 minutes we could have carved them Open and scored a few, but to little too late.

Southgate is a clueless yesssss man👍 Foden has left the squad to deal with a personal matter so don't know if he'll be back. AT THE LEAST Mainoo and Palmer should START on Sunday.

Hungry young players who are intent on attacking. Yet we fall into the trap of playing his preferred players much like we always used to play Gerrard Lampard and Scholes together, which again never worked, individual brilliance but a a three never worked 1 hour ago, Zoli 12 guage said: Foden has left the squ...

Gordon R Posted Wednesday at 16:59 Report Share Posted Wednesday at 16:59 He will hardly be missed. I appreciate Southgate is playing him out of position - lord knows why - it is typical Southgate - but he has been poor, so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
