OFFICIAL FOOTY THREAD ⚽️: Rodri wins 2024 Ballon d’Or

[Belgium]

That flank is a complete black hole in attack, zero width being provided

Bruh my mom's in her mid 60s, started watching football for the first time literally just a year ago and even she was able to identify that issue.
Southgate is truly amazing.

 

[Belgium]

He'd do better if he played in his preferred position

Sure but he's not exactly doing his best in the situation Southgame put him in either.

 

[Armada]

Trent, Gallagher, mainoo. It don’t matter who they swap out the midfield look the same.

Ben white had the right idea not dealing with this dumb *** southgate

 

[LA Diggler]

Better from Jude

Trent, Gallagher, mainoo. It don’t matter who they swap out the midfield look the same.

It’s better, but CBs are taking too long to get the ball to them. Then when they do get the ball, the players in front are all ball to feet players. Better coaching and utilizing the full squad could fix this but Southgate.

Take out Saka. Offers nothing on that right side. Play Foden where he plays at Citeh.

Mainoo is looking like the only spark.

The real black thing about him

 

[heggsy]

Jude needs to focus on his game rather than keep telling the fans to get up for it

Only one running at Slovakia consistently, need more of them to do the same and take advantage of their skill.

Gordon on for Foden would give more spark especially out wide than taking off Saka and moving Foden. That's where they're missing another option like Rash on the wings. Much easier to defend for Slovakia when the only consistent threat is on the right.

They're not a worse team than them, just much worse execution and instruction

 

[d3si]

I’m truly glad Reece James didn’t get picked for this tournament squad. Totally wasted.

Just go home England

 

[heggsy]

Mainoo been good, Rice been **** again.

Palmer and Gordon on, mainoo and Bellingham sitting, foden into the 10

 

[LA Diggler]

Gordon for Foden or Bellingham
Palmer for Saka
Watkins for Kane

Very good point. And it’s not a question of capability. We seen it at their clubs all the players in the backline know how to and when to play the ball into midfield quickly but they never do for England.

 

[Coupé It]

England are losing? LMAO

 

[Armada]

There is a legit argument Bellingham should sit too but it won’t happen because hes viewed as too big to fail rn.

 

[zeroregret]

Get in there!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Sinner]

It's coming home again? offside.

 

[rolaholic]

Game on!

 

[fluid hips]

Mfs waking up. Potential offside

 

[LA Diggler]

Finally!

 

[zeroregret]

Offside... ugh

 

[rolaholic]

Welp, still 1-0

 

[LA Diggler]

****kkkk
