It’s no accident that our best performances in a major tournament were in a mid season World Cup in Quatar. It’s probably made worse by the fact that we tend to value athleticism over technique so when the physical sharpness isn’t there the inferior technique is starkly obvious.

If we look at this tournament, England when they were behind raised their game and could argue looked physically fitter than the opposition but as soon as England were level, they sat back trying not to lose rather than use the momentum and go for the win and in my opinion that comes from the manager who is cautious. Spain were superior and won every single game due to the clear structure and superb technical ability. England limped to the final with arguably the worst football in the tournament and really Southgate should shoulder the blame and resign.

He is the definition of mediocrity and was definitely a significant part of the problem but I’m old enough to know that England’s underperformance relative to the talent available in euro and world cups goes back way before Southgate. Every single foreign player who comes to the premier league comments on the unrivalled physical intensity and that every game is full on. At the top level even a 1% difference in sharpness matters. Do you think every problem has a single cause ? If only life was that simple.

​@@paulmichael9413 Agree. We needed pace to beat Spain. Their defence can be suspect

Kane: Bundesliga Top Scorer Bellingham: La Liga Top Player Foden: Prem best player Palmer: Best young Prem player Rice & Saka: Arsenal's two best players last season Stones & Walker: Serial winners at Man City TAA: 'One of the best rights backs of his generation' according to Wikipedia Bowen, Gordon & Watkins: Had fantastic seasons at club level etc Pickford: no.2 in the golden glove race last season playing for Everton How is this squad of players not preforming like they do at their clubs!?

What can we say though?! how many times will we say this?. England have world class players no doubt. All of the above names are world class imo they have proved this so far right upto the final. But as in football, the best team does not always win, or wins you trophies. I like the team too i am a England fan. When Southgate took over all those years ago, we had a team that was just been dumped out by Iceland rd16. That spelled the end of Hodgson then Allardyce came over did a game then bumped off. In steps Southgate , things change coz they have; 2018 semis, 2019 semis, then 2021 final lost, 2024 final lost. Where dowe go from here?..Only Southgate knows. we shall see!

Exactly. At what point is it on the PLAYERS ?

Legend has it' that bottom button on Durham's shirt popped open straight after this!! Just like England's euro dreams!!! 🇪🇸

FairPlay to Adrian I didn’t think it was that possible to look that scruffy in a suit👏🏻😂

Phil was misplaced out on the left for the first 4 games. It took only 1 game to see it didn't work.

There's a rumour that Southgate has really got Scottish ancestry and he's off in a corner somewhere sniggering to himself.

Agree. Bellingham over rated. Palmer looks like the new Rooney or something

The manager needs to be changed. Period.

What went wrong is having the wrong manager in charge of a very talented squad. He played the wrong players all through the tournament!

It wasn't the England fans booing Cucurella, it was the Germans in the crowd. They felt they should have had a penalty in their quarter-final when he handled the ball.

Lucked our way there, 45 mins of good football all tournament, leading for 34 mins the entire comp, one shot on target in each euro finals. Under Gareth we are passive, ponderous and absente of structure and attacking ideas. His loyalty to underperforming players and in ability to react in game is a huge issue. Bare minimum with this team is reaching finals, what he has done hasnt been success but the bare minimum.

Wenger or Klopp would take these kids to tge next level, anything less will just be same old, same old. 🫤

In most cases, that was because of Spain's high press. Passing out from the back became very difficult for our defence.

No matter how talented your players are, if you don’t set them up in a balanced way it doesn’t work. Can’t just drop a load of people who have scored goals this season up the top of the pitch and expect it to gel.

Let’s be real, England did not play any high profile teams in the 2018 World Cup the 2020/21 and 2024 Euros

At the end of the match again Toney's expression towards Southgate was not happy with his decision in keeping him on the bench when Kane was clearly struggling throughout the entire game. Kane was never a threat and why England were effectively playing with 10 men and explains why Bellingham was knackered, bent over at the waist gasping for air. At 1-1 why not bring on fresh attacking players. Getting to a final is flattery as it hides overhaul tactics and performances

Southgate saying they were tired - might have something to do with the fact that bellingham, foden and saka had to do all the running for Kane. And when we did break Kane couldnt even get in the box.

Dno what Palmer has to do to get a real go. Guys the best English talent by far.

One major problem was only using palmer sporadically. He changed the game every time he came on . He's our best player but Southgate strictly remained loyal to foden rice etc.

Stop making excuses for Kane. "He was injured", no he wasn't!. Hes a grown man, if he was injured, he has a sense of responsibility to say there is a problem. Let alone the medics, physios, who annalise the players to see if they're fit enough to play. He was fit, just not good enough.

Can someone explain to me how Durham’s pulling off that fit

No style no mentality no tactical nouse no leadership players look clueless it all stems from a defensive tactically inept clueless manager...his grace has been individual players bailing him out...getting to a final flatters the players and manager the truth is its been a shambles...he starts Kane lets him not do anything then takes him off...lucky draws has masked an inept Southgate who has instilled a tactical clueless confused mindset in to thd players who don't quite know their own style or identity...this shows going behind constantly never bossing games...stark contrast with Spain who have an identity a style a tempo and boss games to win 🦾

I can’t believe Stuart Pearce is actually kind of hinting at the door for his best mate Southgate, I never thought I would see the day, Southgate out.

the thing that amazes me most is that Anthong Gordon sat on the bench the whole time, genuine pace, takes players on ,scores goals , what a waste

Gordon should have come on for Foden after the leveler. We would have had pace and aggression when needed. Another chance gone by, England will always be the bridesmaid if they don't get aggressive and control. Strongest bench in the tournament potentially yet drastically underutilized

I think we can agree that the MVP of this tournament were the buttons on Adrians shirts. The solid defense they put up against that attack up the gut and by the gut is the stuff of legends

Kane is a finisher. He was not being fed at all. Trent should have been included.

@totalbodyperformancefitnes4813

Is he a finisher? Guy plays like a defensive mid to me.

We must be one of the worst teams around to watch so negative/ boring as the guy said 12 games very poor but somehow nicking results,we all realise the best thing for footballs sake was spain winning the tournament.

Why is no one talking about Pickford just launching the ball forward all night? Southgate said you didn't keep possession well enough. How can you keep possession with your goalkeeper just lumping it to a sole striker with no support?

The final was sacrificed to allow Kane to play, no idea what Walker was doing coming center twice and leaving his man twice and both goals come from his side.

First half just sitting back and trying to counter with no speed up front. Kane moved likeva snail. If they started with Gordon and Watkins and Saka up front then maybe. Bellingham, Rice and Palmer/ Foden midfield 3. 4-3--3 was the formation.

They made it to the final because they have talent in every position. But the tactics and coaching didn't live up to the moment. Timidity did them in. 100% Gareth

Just minutes later, Williams again receives the ball in loads of space and Spain nearly score again. Walker (who played on that side, not Shaw) was nowhere to be seen. Shaw actually took care of Yamal very well for most of the match, and I'm not particularly a Luke Shaw fan but can't be blaming him for Walker's shocking mistakes.
