Still no palmer. What's the point in calling these players up if your not gonna give them a go.

Branthwaite as well. Been one of the best centre backs in the league season. Not even a minute. 

[Tielemans63]

We'll be fine in the Euros as long as we don't play anyone good.

Maddison assist. Bellingham finish!

Nah man, I reckon our thoughts on burden of proof about something being objective differ a bit, and that's fair enough.

 

The points about there being a dearth of talented managers at international level I'd absolutely go with, though.

 

So you think Southgate's talent, comparable to all of the other managers in the world, is equal or greater to Foden m, Bellingham, Kane, etc talent relative to other players? 

 

These are Champions League players in contention for Ballons Dor. 

 

Gareth Southgate had had one senior management job before England, seven years before, was at Boro where he finished 12th, 13th and then got relegated and sacked and basically walked away from management.

Watkins did well there to keep that in. 

[Harboro]

Stands half empty for that last minute equaliser

[RowlattsFox]

Southgate has history of calling players up to their first squad and not using them. As part of their transition into the 'squad environment'

 

Good player but Onana is a bellend. 

 

I don't want to be the celebration police, but Southgate seemed a bit relieved with that. Think we deserved a draw.

[HybridFox]

Bellingham's just ensured a new 10 year extension for Southgate

[Bert]

Probably deserved that truth be told. 
 

Faes picking the ball up out of the net after a 94th minute equaliser holding on to a 1 goal lead for over 60 minutes

[Super_horns]

Well taken by Bellingham.

 

Think a draw was fair .

I think there is at least room for debate on the topic and seeing as the talent pool in international is rather limited I'm interested in thinking about who could be proven to do a better job.

 

But it's perfectly plausible that you and others here are exactly right and a great deal better could be done.

Southgate was pitching a tent when that went in.  

 

The media will be telling us that was a masterful performance.  

[Vacamion]

 

We did some sweet intricate stuff up front, but we gifted them two goals and we will struggle defensively against quality opponents in the Summer.

Decent enough, we need to sort out those typos errors at the back though, it is pathetic at times. Apart from those moments we were well on top 

[BlueSi13]

Think these 2 matches proved Kane is Englands most important player by a million miles.

[Bert]

Bellingham calling out the negative crew

[whoareyaaa]

That's why Maddison has to start with Bellingham in the Euros

[FoxTimmy2]

Bellingham would look so good in a Foxes' No. 10 shirt.

[South Shire Fox]

Love how aggressive Bellingham is,  bloke is the epitome of a winning mentality

Mainoo hadn’t even had a 21’s call up though?

Read a week or so ago that Gomez should go because of his versatility. He's only versatile because he isn't good enough in one particular position.

He’s the Darren Kenton of international football.
