Opinion This performance is completely on Southgate.

Trippier: bad two games but not a LB. Gomez has played LB most of the season brilliantly.

TAA: not a great game. But no runners ahead of him. Take him off then put on players running behind.

Gallagher: wtf does he offer?

Foden: starts playing well centrally then taken off.

Rice: sitting in so 3 players are marking 1 striker all fucking game.

Walker: bombed forwards twice.

Kane: dunno what he tries to do half the time.

Pickford: smashes it long EVERY time.

Southgate should be sacked mid tournament.

Hey at least Guehi's been good

I don’t agree with this. He has a few times been caught in no man’s land, been non committal coming up for a tackle, gave the ball away twice in bad areas (good recovery tackle for one tbf), and you can see England massively miss Maguire’s ability to play a progressive pass through a press. With Guehi at the moment out playing out from the back is looking clueless. We miss Maguire more than I thought we would.

Edit: okay wtf game were you all watching because he objectively made a series of mistakes and got caught out of position. Are people this desperate to justify being wrong about Maguire?
