But it's tough when the opposition has no intention of trying to move past the half way line.

Bit like when we were in div one and struggled to find a way past teams that were happy to achieve a nil nil draw.

and yet still finished top of the group and into the knockout stages of another major tournament...

its like theres a big bit of collective not seeing the bigger picture going on at the moment, egged on by the media representation of the matches, because they largely suspect Southgate is on his way so they no longer have to be nice about him, which isnt helping.

yes England should play better than they have done, tbf I thought they were million times better than the first group game tonight, but you have to still be in it to win it, and England are with little effort, Italy were minutes away from going out last night, Scotland are on their way home, which team would you rather be ?

That’s an insulting narrative.

People on here understand or at least watch a lot of football.

It was turgid. Really turgid. And comparing it to the worst ever performance I’ve witnessed England play in a major tournament (Denmark) doesn’t make your argument any better.

The whole of that group don’t deserve to be in the next stages. I wish they would all get turfed out for being so mind numbingly boring. The fact that 3 teams have made it out is laughable. I said it the other day but Denmark are a complete stain on every tournament. Yet England still found a way of making them look like peak Germany last week.

Yep, it was normal for England. Same every game. There might be some decent individuals but they are a poor team. They look to literally have no idea what they are meant to be doing or where they are meant to be.

This side look lost so we are left hoping an individual will do something special. England’s group has been the weakest and with two goals in three games and the opposition keepers needing a deck chair and pina colada most of the time we’ve played our inept part.

The group of dearth.
