Iceland in 2016 was just as bad.Exiled_Addick said:I’m 42, so I’ve seen my fair share of shambolic England performances at international tournaments, but if they don’t dig themselves out of this mess then this will go down as the worst ever and by a bit of a distance.
You can argue we over rate ourselves sometimes, and there may be something in that, but to have the talent we have and look so consistently laboured against mid to low ranking teams like Serbia, Denmark, Slovenia, and Slovakia, fuck me it’s bad.1 -
Even Appleton's Charlton wasn't this bad

I would even welcome one of Colin's transfer updates over watching that.0

Mainoo probably been our best player, and that's a very low bar.
Watch Southgate sub him off.2 -
There’s actually one too many sideways pass there, that’s kind of positive for Southgate…sillav nitram said:Sideways, sideways, backwards, sideways, backwards, backwards.1 -
We've spent years asking for players to go abroad.Turns out that if you send them to Bundesliga they lose any footballing ability.1

All the commentary, "What can Gareth Southgate do to address this in the second half?"
F**k all, or he might have addressed it in the 3.5 games we've been exactly the same so far.2 - Sponsored links:

Well along with Guehi and Bellingham, he's one on a booking so makes some sense!!SELR_addicks said:Mainoo probably been our best player, and that's a very low bar.

Just like Charlton playing from the back. Aimless pass after aimless pass, with nobody showing from the middle, followed by the inevitable punt forward to the opposition.0

2nd thought @McBobbin prolly better off staying home doing your presentation mateGribbo said:
Farkinell Bob, can't the property write it itself if it's that clever.McBobbin said:Currently writing a presentation on careers in intellectual property. Thankfully, the England game can't be the shittest thing to happen today

Great point.ForeverAddickted said:
Its because Maguire used to be one of the Defenders who'd carry the ball forwards out of defencecarly burn said:For such a supposedly stupendous forward five, I've never know an England back 4 to have put their foot on the ball and move it sideways and backwards as much..
They are offering absolutely nothing up top
Rather than endless passing.Personally think Guehi has had a good tournament but all those who mock Maguire need to see how much he brings to the team
Maguire brings it that extra 10 yards, then Rice picks it up nearer centre spot and attack develops from there.Rice picking it up three yards from our penalty D is bollox.6 -
Probably the worst organised England team I have seen and I have seen many. Defensively all over the place, no running upfront. Change the shape for Christ sake is so obvious.1
-
May I say, not really surprised with the score...anyway, Flog It is on BBC2 for anyone interested...🙄0

It’s a better game to watch than the previous three, which doesn’t mean much.0
-
Kyle Walker has clearly been told to stay back as a 3 with Stones and Guehi so that Trippier can provide width on the left.
Problem is that Trippier isn’t providing width, he’s cutting in and forcing us to be narrow, and when Saka does the same, there’s no Walker to overlap and take the defender away from him and keep the defence stretched.
If we’re not changing the personnel, simple solution is to make Foden stay out wide and Tripper to stay back as the 3, with Walker overlapping.3 -
I didn't realise Kishishev is Slovakia's manager.0

I think we're out. They just don't look up for it and Southgate won't make the necessary changes. Hope i'm wrong.1

Southgate really is clueless. It beggars belief how he manages to get the best group of footballers we've had in decades playing like this. Two goals scored in three and a half games here against the combined might of Serbia (ranked 32nd in the world), Denmark (21st), Slovenia (57th) and Slovakia (45th). He's made these players look at the ball as their enemy not their friend.1
-
I thought we looked pretty handy in that third minute of injury time.0
-
Pissed off because I hate seeing us exit major tournaments early
Silver living - this should be the end of the road for Gareth.0 -
Anyone spot the Valley in the Sky Sports EFL ad?2
-
Dont know if anybody just realised but that EFL advert played at HT was at the Valley0
-
How have Sky CGI'd a full Valley for that advert?1
-
Biggest issue we've got now, is that Slovakia have their goal, and don't need to attack!!
We need to find a way to break them down... Gordon on down the left is probably the first option. Would be ridiculous to take Kane off, especially with the prospect of a shootout if we can only score once.0 -
I think that as well. Pressure was too much for Southgate. We’ve only scored 9 goals in last 10 matches. No belief this will get turned around.charlton_hero said:I think we're out. They just don't look up for it and Southgate won't make the necessary changes. Hope i'm wrong.0 -
Did I just see The Valley on a Sky advert? If I did that was the highlight of the afternoon. If I didn't, it was still the highlight after that stinking performance.6
