I'm not sure where we will end up this tournament, but I do know that with people like him involved, we are on the up.
The one post match analysis session where I actually wanted the default all English pundit panel and I didn't get it, because we had been served up a tokenistic provincial show instead.
Sleepwalk into the knockouts in 2nd or 3rd with no injuries, no further bookings and a team who haven't made the effort to get out of 2nd gear yet. We don't want to win the group and face France, Portugal or Germany, better to face Sweden. We're exactly where he wants us to be, so expect another snore draw against the Czechs, which will see them 1st and us 2nd.
I don't think Kane has run for the ball has he? Uncharacteristically well off the pace.
Meanwhile, the Welsh and Scots if they qualify will be completely exhausted and be out in the next round.
Southgate legend.
On the England front, I'm Welsh so commenting from the outside, (also a Liverpool fan), but I've been saying it from the start, I can't understand why Jordan Henderson is not in your team. He's done the lot, a big game player, box to box midfielder, a battler and a leader with a winning mentality. Unless he's not fit ( he must be by know, and maybe fresher and less exhausted than others), he should be in the team. England's midfield were awful tonight.

Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after youWould prefer Rashford or Calvert-Lewin starts ahead of him (although that obviously won’t happen) in the final group match.
To me it seems like we qualify against poor/average teams at best & then he sticks to those same ‘old reliable’ players, but in a tournament like this the quality of most teams is much higher. They are actually ‘up for it’ & give a shit.
Is Southgate picking his best team available to him? Jason Sancho stats this season are: 38 games/16 goals/20 assists. Can’t believe Southgate isn’t giving him a chance.
I mean what the absolute fucking fuck are these arseholes talking about?
A bit of support and patriotism, fine, but favourites to beat France, Germany, Portugal etc?
Lovely parody here;

Phil Foden: "Hold my beer"...
And as for last night, England are shite, have almost always been shite and I feel confident in saying will always be shite.
Well done the Scots. Before celebrating too much though, do keep things in perspective and remember you haven't actually scored a goal yet...
Sideways, backwards, no urgency is the sort of football Spain get mocked for. Teams like the Scots who are happy to drop deep into flat banks of 5 and 4 are hard to break down when you slow the game down to a crawl and play in front of them. Have a bit of creativity, play more direct and break them down before they've had a chance to drop in, otherwise you're doomed to just play nothingball for the entire game.
The subs were awful - used 2 out of 5 possible and both of them were the wrong sub to make. Sterling shouldn't have played beyond the 60th minute and Calvert Lewin should've come on instead of Rashford.
Couple that with Tyrone Mings being the worst England centre half I've ever seen and it was frustrating viewing.
I'd go almost entirely different 11 for the Czech game. Give Sancho, Saka, Calvert Lewin, Ben White and our boy Jude a run out.
England draw with Scotland: we're dull, we were crap, we'll be lucky to make the quarter finals.
The truth, as ever, lies somewhere in between.
Apart from the first 15 minutes against Croatia, England haven't even looked like a team so so far.
The commentator said before kickoff that England had a reputation for arrogance, and then went on to call them one of the favourites, and when Scotland put 20 odd passes together never mentioned a single Scottish player by name.
I've never heard an England player or coach make outrageously optimistic claims, but the media and commentary teams are absolutely full of it, that's where the arrogance really is.
