That was ‘rancid’ and ‘onerous’ according to one ‘fickle moron’. The Mailbox reacts to England 0-0 USA.
Gareth Southgate has done well to get this team to a semi and a final, but much like Belgium and their generation of players, we could and should achieve much much more with the players at our disposal.
We’ve never looked convincing in a tournament under Southgate bar the 4-0 hammering of Ukraine. We squeezed past Colombia, Denmark, Sweden and Germany in all of our knockout games under him, and we laboured in the recent Nations League. He has to go. There is no excuse for playing such sour, lifeless and negative football that Alex McLeish would be proud of. We can all get excited about the Iran game, but that was the exception not the rule. It’s always safety first, there is no one who carries the ball or plays through the lines, it’s always a safe pass backward or forward.
No chance we win this tournament. Imagine trying not to lose a game, where a victory guarantees you passage to the next round.I was very very confident that England would draw 0-0 tonight. I was also confident I would so fickle morons hating on Southgate afterwards. Do people ever watch international tournaments?! France in 2018 were absolutely dreadful in the groups and very hard to watch. Germany in 2014 weren’t the best either. They scraped last USA and Algeria and drew with Ghana that year.
Honestly, I have to question the age of some of the morons wanting Southgate out. Do people remember how shite England have been prior to him. This idea that he’s holding England back is weird. They’ve tried everything prior to him and were dreadful. I know for a fact if England win it, people will say it’s in spite of the manager. It’s beyond ridiculous at this stage.
