It's going to be a short world cup Nah, we’ll get to quarters without playing anyone half decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGaffer Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Least we won't have the ridiculous over hyping of the team before the tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helmut_rooster Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 (edited) Bellingham looked decent, strong as bull! Greilish get kicked all over ref does nothing Rest, why did they even bother, did nothing. Italy there worst team probably ever, were by far the better team.

Greengrass Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Southgate is way out of his depth, has been for ages. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanye West Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Should have got Potter in while we had the chance. Get Tuchel on the phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can one man be so outstanding for his club but woeful for his country I’ve never been convinced he’s top class. Bit of a flat track bully who bags goals in convincing wins against Norwich but rarely makes the difference in the biggest games. Tends to go missing against Liverpool and Man U, looks like the grief from opposing fans genuinely gets to him. Was good in the euros though I concede Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owl_For_a_Lifetime Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 It's no coincidence we haven't scored from open play, no creativity at all... Declan Rice just honestly said "One attack one goal for them".... wow.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d seriously get someone in before the World Cup. It’s knockout football. Bring in someone who can set this team up properly and play to our strengths 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably make the semi’s/final in Qatar now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreshOwl Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 It’s a joke when you think about it. Southgate, Holland & Chris Powell, really? This is the managerial team we’ve entrusted to take us to hopeful glory? We need a far better coaching set up. 2 manager jobs for Southgate and relegated in both (nations league and Middlesbrough) We’ve fluked through the last two major tournaments through weak opposition and fortunate circumstances, then crumbled against anyone half decent. He even set up pragmatically against weaker opposition and I can’t recall any real standout performances It’ll be the same this WC. Sneak past Iran and the yanks unconvincingly, then get schooled by the top nations 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
