It was an error. Was Mancini’s decision to bring on Belotti equally as bad? For what it’s worth we did well to even get to that point. They should’ve beaten us in 90 minutes.
MountI think he has to play him in central midfield, we have to get out the mentality of pushing our talented players higher up the pitch.
We need players who can handle the ball with skill and composure in our own half, instead of going with two work horses who do the 'dirty work' and end up chasing Italian shadows for 120 minutes
I think Bellingham and Mount could potentially make a good midfield two and both have the work rate and intelligence to do the defensive work, and then it frees another attacking position for a grealish or sancho who probably offer a bit more than Mount in those positions.
As close to blaming Southgate without saying his name
Never heard of it mate.Ah well.
4 weeks and we'll be back at the ricoh watching the boys!
Wouldn't Luke Shaw be a decent taker and like I said earlier , Henderson?One of our players of the tournament. However that 5th penalty should’ve been Grealish’s or Pickford’s.
Has mount had a good tournament ?You aren't the best judge of players though fella
Wouldn't Luke Shaw be a decent taker and like I said earlier , Henderson?
Agree with this we could all the pattern he left it far too longThere are a lot of things for England to be proud of on the pitch and that will be built up over the coming years. Mancini’s subs changed the game and Southgate didn’t react to them.
Penalties was still a cruel way to decide it, golden goal is a much better format.
He didn't at Middlesbrough tbf...Southgate is a fine man but I think he would suit getting the best out of a limited team
Southgate has taken England to a semi-final and then a final of a major tournament. He deserves to be in charge in Qatar and expect he will be from the next Euros too.Graham Potter
Brighton manager , attack minded , plays good stuff , English.
Whenever it happens he should be in the running .
Probably after QATAR

The Italian passing was immense during the second half, Mancini really has done an excellent job in turning them around.
I’d have Shaw or Walker taking a pen before Saka if they’re on the pitch still. No issue with Rashford taking one. An inch further over and that’s in. As a last resort, Henderson. He’s got one England goal and missed 2/2 pens for us.Wouldn't Luke Shaw be a decent taker and like I said earlier , Henderson?
Convinced we'd have won it if that went in, too. Very different mindset for Sancho going up being able to dream of victory.An inch further over and that’s in.
Yeah that was terrible, as were the studs on Grealish.Thought Ciolinis assault on Saka should have been red ! He could have been the last man
No I know,and Nick commented about the last one he took but he was hooked for a taker wasn't he?Henderson wasn't on the pitch though
If a shirt pull is assault then I’d be locked up playing football.Thought Ciolinis assault on Saka should have been red ! He could have been the last man
Last man or not, that was assualt in the street.Thought Ciolinis assault on Saka should have been red ! He could have been the last man
It was nearly ripping his neck off that was the issue!If a shirt pull is assault then I’d be locked up playing football.
