And kane muffed it. Shocking ball control. Probably surprised there was no one to dive over.

Are you sure it’s England’s fans causing the trouble? Czech Police have stated 31 arrests and only 14 of them England fans?
We’ve all heard the stories of English supporters being targeted abroad.
As for “not a word about it†every media outlet has reported it.
Good to see you taking an interest in the National Team.

You have lost me there???
He kicked him in the ankle ,you even said that yourself!
At least we can agree on something ,but that’s a bit unkind to the Gunners.
When you pick a team populated with players from clubs that are leaking goals for fun, what do you expect!
Midfield was just as poor, neither Henderson or Rice can receive balls under pressure, they both looked lethargic and clueless at times. Barkley didn't add much but at least he could run with the ball.
Team selection was atrocious, and most if not all fans knew it before the game started. Southgate can't seem to see where the problem areas are, which is very worrying!
But when our defence is made up from Everton, Spurs and Utd, what did we really expect going on current club results!

Yup. The back four looked very familiar...seen at The Vic all season.
Not sure what Rice offered the team yesterday.

I've just seen the Antoine Griezmann dive .................................. shockingly embarrassing, but it got them the penalty that won them the game.

You forgot to mention Mount, very poor performance indeed, his teammates were not much better, either!.
Injury/illness didn't help, but that's no excuse for such an inept performance.

When you have a
GK who isn’t good enough , a LB and RB who have spent a year in poor form , one decent CB and one who is just about Prem level not International level then they are going to struggle
Should - Pope , TAA , Gomez , Maguire and Chillwel
Then in midfield- Henderson isn’t a great player to sit , he is a runner and link player , and Rice ? Is he actually any good or all hype - they are not great as a two
Need to get Maddison in there for creativity
And get rid of 4-2-3-1 -
4-3–3 , the formation the players are comfortable with

Tbf for England Pickford has never let us down.
And until Gomez earns a regular spot for his club he shouldnt play for England. He has to show he has the ability (I think he does) but also the fitness. No point picking a player you can't rely on. We've done that too much in the past.
Agree re the fullbacks though. The best two and most in form.

Did England loose last night?
Saw their fans were a disgrace again. At least we know we're pants and just have fun at away days.

I agree with a lot of that. Our centre back selection is poor anyway, Gomez would be playing if he could get in the Liverpool team. Keane is woeful but I'm not sure who else is out there. Maybe Tomori will get a game but it feels soon for him.
Rice was pointless to have against them. He should only be playing against teams where we have less possession so he can break up play. When we're expected to dominate he adds nothing. Maybe Winks should have played, at least he moves the ball well. Just like at CB, we don't have many good options for deep midfielders.
Agree that Pope, Arnold & Chilwell should be 1st choice now, or soon.

Even with Gomez not getting regular time at club i would still have him ahead of Keane every day of the week , if not Gomez then Tarkowski or even Stones , but it needs to be someone else. Keane is not an international CB
I agree about Keane. And have previously stated I like gomez as a talent. But it's everything which is wrong (still) with playing for England when being at a top club automatically gets you in the squad.
Tomori and to a lesser extent mount proving it. But that's a whole different subject.

It’s not about being automatic playing just because you are at a big club - I would play Gomez over Keane even if he was at the bottom club , he is a better player , Gomez doesn’t get into the squad just because he is at Liverpool, he gets into the squad because he is one of the best english CB’s

Not sure I agree with this, Gomez or Tomori nowhere near the squad if they dont play for a big club with their number of appearances at club level (Tomori completely laughable selection imho btw)
Is Gomez really that good? Not even played 50 premier league games across 4 seasons and is far from a regular starter. If hes one of the best English centre backs (not potentially one of) then thats pretty damning on the rest of them!!!! along the lines of picking Foden in squads when he barely gets a kick in the prem league
btw agree he may well be better than Keane but thats a pretty low bar

Gomez is way better than Keane, not forgetting he had a big injury and has come back and is improving. He is quick and reads the game well, and has argueably the best CB in the game to learn from in the squad.
