England fans really think a midfield of Rice-Kalvin Philips will win them this tournament Laughing

Kane has been absolutely useless

by RealGunner Tue Jun 29, 2021 5:39 pm

Kalvin doesn't look out of place in international football. Rice seems to have found his technical limitations.

by Perucho21 Tue Jun 29, 2021 5:46 pm

Harry Kane........ lmao

by Kaladin Tue Jun 29, 2021 5:46 pm

Unbelievable that Kane didn't manage to score that

Infuriating

I've only seen 20 mins of the first half but it seems a poor game from both teams. Very slow, not a lot of intensity in the press and very few chances.

I'm unconvinced by England's pressing. I've seen Phillips and Rice sucked out a few times, and Havertz/Muller get on the ball in front of England's defence.

Only way I see England scoring is through a set-piece. I've yet to see Shaw or Trippier hit the byline.

Such a poor game of football.
At least Löw has won them something Southgate is a manager without imagination and just is average. The team has no discipline and a better Germany would eat them inside out.

Kane has been terrible these Euros as yes he isn't being used to his best but even when he has the ball and chances he just looks past it almost.

Brilliant save by Pickford.

by El Gunner Tue Jun 29, 2021 6:08 pm

you just know this game is scripted for a jammy counter attacking Werner goal

by Arquitecto Tue Jun 29, 2021 6:13 pm

Sterling

Bench this scrub

England i'd pay you 100£ to fuck off this tournament

by Arquitecto Tue Jun 29, 2021 6:18 pm

German kit is so sexy I'm going to order it after this game.

England's midfield quality has collapsed. Rice and Phillips would look right at home playing for Burnley. A prime Wilshere would look like Pirlo in that midfield. What I'm saying is it's fucking dire.

He's been England's best player, the only one who looks like he might get something done. Bench Kane, imo.

by Arquitecto Tue Jun 29, 2021 6:22 pm

Germany isn't exactly a spectacle to watch but England are so tactically dull and boring as a whole I just prefer them out.

by Arquitecto Tue Jun 29, 2021 6:23 pm

I mean, Sterling is making something happen but it mostly is never in anticipation of anyone else's movements and always running into blind alleys as he never has his head up and just has his dribbles eventually snuffed out in tighter space.

Sancho is already miles better the player than Sterling ever was and still is benched. Absurd.

why isn't Henderson playing?
Surely, Phillips - Henderson will be a more dynamic pivot

by Superstone Mariomintsch Tue Jun 29, 2021 6:28 pm

So Werner wouldn't actually score anymore here

by Arquitecto Tue Jun 29, 2021 6:32 pm

Sterling scores silent

by Jay29 Tue Jun 29, 2021 6:38 pm

Sterling has 15 goals in his last 20 caps. Had just 2 in his first 40.

His general play has been meh but he scores. That's why he's worth playing, even out of form.

by Arquitecto Tue Jun 29, 2021 6:38 pm

Müller.

Chokejob.

by RealGunner Tue Jun 29, 2021 6:39 pm

Have to credit Southgate for keep persisting with Sterling. he always delivers for England

by Jay29 Tue Jun 29, 2021 6:39 pm

Sterling nearly costs us a goal rofl
