Post-Match Thread and Ratings England v Slovakia 30th Jun2024 17:00hrs ko.

[THE SEVENTIES NORTH BANK]

Stones and Walker should be ashamed of themselves. They keep not only passing to each other sideways and back, but also looking to pass sideways and backwards to anyone else. It's like we have no midfielders to pass to. This has been highlighted in the last few games, so it should have been sorted out. When Stones plays for Man City, he's always running forward with the ball, or passing forward. 1-0 down and we can't equalise without attacking FFS. The England fans can see all this negative play, that's why the booing has started. Why can't the Manager see it, and do something about it? Give a player like Kane a couple of chances and he will score. Feed him nothing, and he may as well not be on the pitch.

 

[Clinton Baptiste]

Could swap the whole team. Kane, Bellingham awful.

 

[Sandbach Shrimper]

Woeful again. When we do play with a bit of urgency and positivity we create chances, so why don't we do it more?!

Nothing to lose here. Get Palmer on. Get Gordon on. I'd chuck Toney on too, something a bit different, ruffle a few feathers. Kane has done nothing once again.

Ref has been a joke too, handing out cards like it's Christmas. This really feels like the end of the road for Southgate.

 

[Cricko]

No changes.

 

[Holy Joe]

Foden looked offside

 

[Cricko]

Well offside.

 

[Floval Flyer]

No changes.

Phil Brown tactics

 

[southendkid]

The lino is lucky VAR exists, he'd be accused of match fixing otherwise. I'm surprised the fans even bothered celebrating it was so blatant.

 

[Holy Joe]

Giving the ball away like that is not southgates fault. Players so sloppy

 

[Sammy Shrimper]

A lucky escape from Walker’s pass to Stones.

 

[Shr1mperBlue]

Where are the ****ing subs!!!

 

[Holy Joe]

How's that not a yellow?

 

[Floval Flyer]

Slovakia brining on 2 subs !!

 

[southendkid]

You just know that because we've been marginally better Southgate won't make any subs until the 80th minute.

 

[THE SEVENTIES NORTH BANK]

The ref trying not to send a Slovakian player off, despite late and bad fouls.

 

[Shr1mperBlue]

When the sub comes it’s going to be Trent and Gallagher. Palmer and Gordon will stay sitting keeping that bench nice and warm.

Worst manager at the tournament.

 

[Holy Joe]

How's that not even a foul on trippier?

 

[Shr1mperBlue]

I take it back

 

[Holy Joe]

And that's just assault on Rice!

 

[GBJ]

****ing hell, this ref is shocking.

Absolutely no surprise he got spanked by that Turkish geezer
