This Wolverhampton crowd are embarrassing 21:31 - Jun 14 with 2627 viewsCopfordBlue

“You don’t know what you’re doing’ to a manager who has taken England to a World Cup semi final and Euro final, booing Maguire when a defence without him have let in 3, leaving early. Awful fans.

England have played poorly in a glorified friendly with a team that won’t be the one starts the World Cup. We’ll do well in Quatar, I’m sure of it.

Our national team bores me to tears. I really don't care, I even have to try quite hard to get up for big tournaments.

But I don't go and watch them. So I'm with you, if you class yourself as a genuine England fan and decide to go and watch them, and you've seen the success we've had in the last two tournaments, you can't just suddenly turn on them.

If I had to guess I'd say they're all knackered after a long season and 4 games in 11 days.

Doubt we'll get past QFs in Qatar

We are nothing special. Even with two great recent tournaments we've not really looked a side to fear and we've thrown away games we dominated and then sat back and went negative after going ahead, (WC SF v Croatia and EURO Final v Italy)

We've not got a particularly creative team, and lack goal scorers except HK.

The squad is not as good as the likes of Sven and Fabio had, or even EL Tel's squad.

If anything, GS has over performed.

Sh1te by the players tonight though.

I'm sure the England players are in need of a rest but surely the German, Hungarian and Italian players are also knackered after similarly long seasons?

I rate Southgate's achievements to date, but tonight he got absolutely schooled by a better coach this evening, in exactly the same way that same coach schooled him a week ago.

I agree that we were too negative after going ahead against Croatia in the WC semi and Italy in the Euro final but were you really thinking England weren’t a good team in the Euros against Denmark , Ukraine and Germany or during the qualification for the upcoming World Cup? If you were then fair enough but I think we’ve looked very decent against good opposition when it’s mattered far more in recent years than we have for decades.

Not sure he did get schooled.

The players looked like they couldnt be bothered.

Also, Hungary were massively clinical.

totally, England have been poor to watch for years, even in their runs in the last tournaments they have been turgid to watch, set up negatively, and somewhat lucky in certain games. How can a side that contains that amount of talent create so little and never look like scoring, its isnt just this game it's been coming for a while imo

37 years and counting!

People always say that. Most players hate losing competitive games and England were chasing that game for 60 minutes (and looked and behaved like they were chasing it). In 180 minutes they never worked out how to play through a team that pressed hard every time the ball went into midfield is all.

I didn't say we weren't a good team in the Euros, but i would expect England to beat Ukraine, Denmark at any time, and that was a poor Germany team by their standards. But we beat them at that's all that mattered.

If we played Denmark or Ukraine tomorrow, i think we'd lose or draw at best. I couldn't see us beating either.

We've gone backwards and goal scoring is a massive problem for this team and Southgate doesn't seem to know how to get the best out of the creative players like Grealish, Foden, Saka, Sancho etc

Funny how it becomes ridiculous when we've been crap. If we were beating Germany and Italy or were top of our group everyone would be say bring on the word cup.

Not such meaningless games if you think England play only two more games before World cup and we look clueless currently!

I agree, but on the second goal KP ambled back to his knees and didnt seem bothered to get back up.

Also didnt have any urgency for the 3rd goal.

...and Im a fan of KP.

It’s a ridiculous round of games be honest

End of season , long season , fatigue , testing / trying new players , players minds are elsewhere etc etc

Whether it be beating Germany or losing to Hungary - same result for me = pointless and ridiculous

the late collapse was probably one of those things. Everything that preceded it was a better-coached team with a better plan preventing a team with better players from imposing themselves on the game.

But its the same for everyone else. Fatigue, end of season, whatever, England shouldn't be failing to win any of their games and losing 4-0 at home.

I don't give a crap about the competition, but if people think we are going to have a successful world cup I think they may be in for a bit of a shock. Even the group isn't a forgone conclusion.

Rubbish games that shouldn’t be played. Glorified friendlies to bring £ in when a break would be far more useful.

However, England are still a long way from being up with the best teams. Not enough quality players to choose from because we don’t have enough in the PL and a manager who has done nothing in the game. Ok, a semi final and a Final people will say. I hear that, but we had an easy ride in both.

England international team are just not a priority in this country and tbh, never will be.
