Danny Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 Only caught the last ten minutes but the midfield is struggling to compete with Switzerland’s
Danny Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 There is no need to play both Skipp and Davies in front of a back 3. Why are we playing with a back 3? We’ve got Jones and Eze on the bench
Lucas Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 How on earth is Aidy Bothroyd still in charge? Couldn't get a fucking tune out of Maddison, Mount and Foden in the last tournament which was an embarrassment in itself, and given more great talent to work with again and he serves up a main course of freshly strained dog shit on a silver platter. Same old, same old. Textbook England. Good on paper, absolute crap where it matters.

Plays a back 3 that relies on wing backs bombing forward outwide, decides to play left footed McNeil on the left also. Make it make sense.
Administrator Stan Posted March 25, 2021 Administrator Posted March 25, 2021 The cunt drew 3-3 with Andorra ffs. He's not good enough for the calibre of players in the squad.
Smiley Culture Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 Anyone actually shocked that Boothroyd’s side lost? I’m not sure how he kept a job after the last tournament.
Danny Posted March 26, 2021 Posted March 26, 2021 There's just no intent, it's such a limited style of play. They were going over the first half highlights talking about "big" opportunities, of the 3 one was a header from a corner and the other was a shot from outside the area. Not one pundit held Boothroyd to task and questioned the selection, the lack of attacking emphasis, just went on about how it's been a good half etc etc. Blind as a bat.
Lucas Posted March 28, 2021 Posted March 28, 2021 Congratulations to Aidy Bothroyd. Coaching a side providing him with the tools to do great things and his side has managed one shot on target in 180mins. Played two, lost two, bottom of the group and crashing out at the group stage of another tournament. Absolutely inept. Get him gone.
Honey Honey Posted March 29, 2021 Posted March 29, 2021 After years of blaming a lack of game time the excuse now is tiredness
Guest Posted March 29, 2021 Posted March 29, 2021 I think Frank lampard could make a good under 21 manager. I like eddie Howe but Lampard is probably more up to date with modern football.

Guest Posted March 29, 2021 Posted March 29, 2021 I know everyone is gonna laugh but I would consider Rooney. He has improved Derby and I think he would be good with the youngsters. I would certainly consider giving him a two year contract and seeing how he does

Guest Posted March 31, 2021 Posted March 31, 2021 I think incredibly England are going through at the moment
Guest Posted March 31, 2021 Posted March 31, 2021 Almost fluked it but Croatia got a late goal and we are out. Probably better in the long run because it gets rid of boothroyd
Administrator Stan Posted March 31, 2021 Administrator Posted March 31, 2021 If this isn't the end of Boothroyd then I don't know what is. The 3-3 Andorra draw should have been it though.
Administrator Stan Posted May 30, 2021 Administrator Posted May 30, 2021 This resumes tomorrow.

Administrator Stan Posted May 31, 2021 Administrator Posted May 31, 2021 Upamecano scores a header from a corner. 1-0 to France.
Administrator Stan Posted May 31, 2021 Administrator Posted May 31, 2021 After all that praise, France are out Netherlands have some decent players themselves, but still, that French squad should have had enough to win. Boadu (scored the winner in stoppage time), Stengs, Botman, Kluivert in their squad. But France had quality in every position of the pitch. Still messed it up.
Moderator Tommy Posted May 31, 2021 Moderator Posted May 31, 2021 Germany lead 2-1 in extra time! It was 0-1 Denmark for a long time, but we managed to equalize shortly before regular time ended.
