Huge over reaction to a 0-0 draw. Anyone need a link to the match thread for the Scotland game from Euro 2020?
US energy in midfield was impressive and gave them control over the game for periods. McKennie, Adams and Musah were excellent and, in a 3v2, completely overran Bellingham and Rice.
Henderson should’ve been subbed on much sooner. I notice that decision was lambasted on here when it happened but we took control of the match from the moment he came on.
As Lee Dixon said... defeat for either team was disastrous and both teams ended up playing like it
Cautious in attack, because neither wanted to leave themselves open to the counter - The result hurts the United States a lot more, as nothing short of a win over Iran and they're out... as we saw today, they cant finish a Thanksgiving Dinner
England are still massive favourites to go through. Wales aren't going to win by 4. This game may have cost England first place in the group, but goal difference is kind of useful in a tight group.
Shall we just pretend it didn’t happen or wake up to that performance was more the recent norm than the outlier of the magnificent performance against Iran
the frustrating thing is it isn’t Charlton where we are unsurprisingly shit and it’s inevitable england have some top class players who haven’t performed to their max in recent times
the important thing is it’s all in our hands and we have soooo much more to give, let’s hurt Wales and get in to the exciting knockout stuff where we will hopefully perform nearer our capabilities than below par stuff
We never turn up against these shites, let's see how we react before sacking a manager unbeaten in the tourney so far.
They can't be that shite they were out muscled out coached and out played against so called mighty England the only thing they will bring home is their shitty underwear in their suitcases.

Not really an overreaction. The performance was godawful. Yes USA deserve credit, but we were fucking shit. But everyone knows we still ought to advance, so, overreaction? Nah.
As for Henderson, he doesn’t get the pulse racing, but I understand the sub because Bellingham was anonymous. But the reason we came into the game after he came on was because Grealish came on with him.

At least my bet that Maguire and Stones would pass the ball to each other more than 40 times came in.
Should Iran beat United States, and we draw with Wales, then we come 2nd

That's it.
We are through to the knockouts (not officially but tbf it may aswell be)
England probably won't win the world Cup as we aren't quite good enough but that's life

My biggest concern was how easy a team like USA worked out Bellingham. He was very quiet.
Would have just been nice to have completely wrapped it up this eve and got some minutes into the rest of the squad in the last group match.

Once we're there, that sort of play will work more to our advantage as the opposition wont be able to sit back and settle for a point either
The biggest issue today, was the amount of chances the United States wasted, and that should be a concern for them against Iran too

FA, Foden hasn't been shit for England he just hasn't been the genius he is at City.
Football is now a 16 man game but it felt right from the beginning we were happy with a point.
Poor performance but I think we'll beat Wales and it won't matter.
Full credit to him for staying in the 1st team and proving why he should be there!
He needs to leave Man United. They are shite
