Post-Match Thread and Ratings Wales 0 - 3 ENGLAND

An overpaid bunch of preaching Primma Donna's who can't even beat America. This is funny.

Well that's pretty much us through, Wales would need to beat us by 4 for us to go out. Not sure it's worth tuning in on Tuesday, Southgate will probably play for a 2-0 loss. Hopefully it's just a case of us saving our energy for the knockouts but I'm not convinced we've got a Plan B based on that.

Think it was southgates plan to play for a draw or try and nick it one nil. At least not to lose at all costs. We've now qualified for next round providing Wales dont beat us 4-0 ! Same plan as the euros

When you see Brazil playing most balls forward, when you see them attack with pace, you realise we are playing the wrong boring type of football, with the wrong line up. That was a painful watch.

Dire, uninspiring, rubbish. Bringing on Henderson merely
re-confirmed GS was going for the one point….

 

[southendkid]

Southgate pretty much confirming the message tonight was "don't take risks, a draw is good enough" in his post match interview. Said he was really pleased with the performance and we were in control.

Going to mow past wales though

Southgate a crap manager sorry !!!!!

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

Normal service has been resumed. FWIW I think England will qualify (But I don't think I'll be betting on any WC games in the near future).

No he wasn't, no he isn't. Time to grow up a little people.

One problem with Southgate and correct me if I'm wrong but he very rarely is able to change tactics or make substitutions that change a match in our favour when we are needing a goal.

That shambles need to take a long hard look at the Lionesses to understand what it really means to wear an England shirt.

They left the pitch looking like they had been out for a Sunday afternoon stroll not playing for their country in the World cup finals, no excuses

Just lucky you are playing wales next

It was a crap performance but unless we lose by 4 goals to Wales (which would be a colossal **** up) then we're already through, I'm reasonably sure based on his post match interview that Southgate told them to not take any risks to protect the draw that would see us through.
