I keep saying it, but Southgate is not a manager, he's a politician.

He keeps the FA sweet with his "mature", "modern" press conferences. He keeps his favourites around cos those players will back him when his position in questioned.

If he just picks good players, they won't be grateful. Shit players like Walker, Maguire, Coady will back him to the hilt.
 
What Germany are doing is really rather simple pass and move Football, all it requires is energy and a reasonable amount of technical skill.

They're finding so much space simply by making those quick spurts into space and creating triangles.
 
How much would Bellingham cost? His ability to win the ball centrally is invaluable, would set up our front 3 perfectly
 
I think it’s a bit harsh to say England have no identity.

Southgate has been at his best with five at the back and had two busy fuckers in Philips and Rice. During the Euros, it worked a treat, with Kane alternating with Sterling and dropping back into midfield, plus Shaw and Walker both bombing forward.

Nothing wrong with that. We looked pretty good. Plus we pressed.

This game, most of the players are tired and don’t give a shit. Also, Bellingham isn’t right for a midfield 2.
