Yes.Are we city in disguise.
Give Klopp a blank cheque and tell him he can write down whatever numbers he wants to come and manage this team
He’s already got a new job.Give Klopp a blank cheque and tell him he can write down whatever numbers he wants to come and manage this team
Worryingly - I think he’s got the job, just my opinion but I don’t see them not giving it him at this pointWas pretty keen for Carsley to be given a chance but can’t defend this performance. Can’t imagine he’ll be offered the job now.
Hard to get too worked up, Greece have been much the better side and deserve their victory.
Deserved to lose that, Greece shouldn’t have even been made to play after yesterday’s news so props to them
I very nearly did at 6/1Would have been worth a 10er or so on them after that news. Should have won comfortably too.
It seemed all so familiar didn't it.Palmer puts away that sitter first half and it’s a different game. Very poor though, the international CCFC
The problem is they made the game too congested. There were very little attacking movement or passing options, Foden, Bellingham, Palmer all want to play in the same space, Saka and Gordon were too narrow, and to add to they both TAA and Lewis spent a most of the game when we were in possession in centre midfield.That was one of England's worst ever displays.
I am all for an attacking line-up, but not sure you can put Gorden, Saka AND Palmer all in there
Bellingham, besides the goal, was poor. Foden was poor and Palmer looked like he wasn't anywhere good enough for international football.
Don't think anyone came out of that game well. Maybe Colwill.
So many missed placed passes and missed tackles and lots of use of the irritating trying to walk the ball into the net from around the penalty area.
It was just shocking and without any redeeming features.
Not convinced by Lewis either and Alexander-Arnold did himself no favours at all
You could pretty much make a case for dropping all 11 players for Sunday.
Unbelievable.
Haven't seen it back. Couldn't bear to watch it.The problem is they made the game too congested.

You have to have some structure out of possession and you need to make the pitch as big as possible when you have the ball. We made the Wembley pitch look like a 5 aside pitch at times. You can't play inverted wingers and inverted fullbacks, along with packing your team full of number 10s.
Carsley has slipped into the same trap every England manager does and gave into the press clamour to play all your "best" players. I felt sorry for Stones, Colwill and Rice, they literally had to cover the entire the defense whilst the fullbacks and midfield were all over the place.
When you see the last goal back, TAA is stood next to number and doesn't go with him, then stands still watching it all unfold, whilst Solanke has got himself back into the 18 yard box trying to get a tackle in.
Here's the winner. And your right back..and in the final frame, your right winger (Palmer) and your striker (Solanke) in green have both ran past TAA are are deeper than him. And for context they are both in that line of 3 by Watkins on the right hand side of the first pic.Haven't seen it back. Couldn't bear to watch it.
When I saw the lineup, I was a bit puzzled. Bellingham AND Foden AND Saka AND Palmer AND Gordon
Very naïve thinking that and like you say, all fighting for the same space
Foden is an enigma. He's a great player and really should be one of the first names on the team sheet.For me we are trying to accommodate Foden when he isn’t part of the best team overall.
Play Bellingham deeper next to Rice and the give Palmer the 10 role behind a striker.
He was poor in the Euro’s and Palmer outshone him. palmer has also has a great start to the season so belongs in there on merit for me, even if not one of his best games tonight.Foden is an enigma. He's a great player and really should be one of the first names on the team sheet.
Reality is though, he so often fails to deliver for England. I love the guy, but I don't think he deserves a place at all right now.
Mind, was expecting big things from Palmer and he had a poor game too.
If this is Lee Carsley trying not to get the job he did excellently.It seemed all so familiar didn't it.
Really embarrassed by that performance tonight.
