Southgate thinks we were much improved. He's gone full Nathan. Never go full Nathan. Full on finger chewing and chest beating imminent... Yep, he’s losing the plot. A reference to it being a strange environment to play in an obvious pop at those booing. Hopefully this is the beginning of the end for the negative prat.

Both of which we didn't win incidentally! Italy did in 82 but the point was to show a significant change between group and knockout performance. I genuinely hope I'm proven wrong, but I can't see us beating anyone in a one off match at the moment.

Palmer has to start. He was good.
Drop Bellingham back.
Potentially play Gordon.
My hope is that we’re just conserving energy for the latter rounds. I still think we’ll come good.

Well its knockout's now so one way or another it will be the last we see of Southgate (unless you are a United fan....) I agree that if we lose the first knock out game, he’s toast for England but do you honestly reckon Neil Warnock has him lined up for a job on the English Riviera? BM

Southgate is not a very good manager and has a big nose. Edit: And he talks out of his ass.

Southgate seems rather negative in the press conference. Says “it’s a difficult environment” & “problems in the build up to the tournament.”
A lot of this is his own doing, selected no left back at all (which is criminal), playing numerous players out of position.
I think he’s got the hump and struggles to accept criticism/negativity from the fans.

Wenger, Hall of fame premier league manger, didn't have too many answers down here back in the day. Won a lot more than this serial loser we have managing England ! Without question but could he break down the mighty potters in full flow at the brit? He hated coming here. Pulis had him on toast.

Curious to know what people would have done differently. For me play Mainoo in midfield for Galagher. Get the Newcastle lad on the left and Palmer in the right and sub Foden and Saka on later if needed?

I genuinely hope I'm proven wrong, but I can't see us beating anyone in a one off match at the moment. We may well be faced with another massed defence on Sunday and I would expect us to again struggle to break it down. Ironically our best chance will come once we get a team who come out and try to attack us.

Curious to know what people would have done differently. Kane is playing on his reputation, offered nothing tonight. No fast outlet, players looked like they couldn't be arsed......yet again. That for me lies squarely with Southgate and his master tactics (not).

Southgate thinks we were much improved. Much in the same way as shitting all over the bathroom floor is an improvement upon shitting directly into your own pants.

On tonight’s evidence, I’d drop Jude. Use Saka / Palmer / Foden with Rice / Mainoo behind them

Curious to know what people would have done differently. A lot, but a lot of it goes back to before the tournament. Take Grealish and a left footed left back Made more than just one change from the off tonight which wasn’t bringing Conor Gallagher in for for frig sake Got Gordon on earlier Taken Kane or Bellingham off Make some brave calls instead of safe ones, and then the ones everyone has been calling for where, lo and behold, we suddenly look a threat However, whether 5 points or 9 we won the group. We simply have to kick in and play a side with intent from Sunday onwards. I didn’t think we were awful tonight, but we were toothless until the last 20 minutes or so. Will Southgate do that? I’m not sure, but I don’t think he can ignore the impact of Palmer and Mainoo.

I pray Shaw is fit to play. I’ve had enough of Trippier on the left killing everything. Gordon in front of Shaw, Bellingham as an 8, Foden at 10 and I’d drop Saka for Palmer.

The squad is really struggling with balance.
Two unadventurous fullbacks is a huge problem for us going forward. We’re desperate for Shaw to be available.
I’d drop Bellingham. Awful tonight, as just as poor last game.

Anyone else think Bellingham has been a bit anonymous since his goal in the first game? Mind you , could say the same about most of them! Also liked Wrighty's suggestion of trying Saka at left back/wing back which might allow Palmer a starting role. Got to be better than Trippier turning or passing inside every time.

Harsh dropping Saka to fit in palmer but who else is there? Kane is probably the weakest attacker at the moment

Curious to know what people would have done differently. Accept that Foden is not a LW and the unbalance in the team because of his stubbornness is there for all to see. Play actually wingers ie Gordon. Foden can only play for Man City or Barca, his technical ability can't be understood or managed by someone like Southgate. Play Palmer in the 10 with freedom and drop Bellingham back to play along side Rice cause he needs support. Left back can't be helped and will have to be either Trippier or Gomez and other than that there isn't much else
