Michelin star players being led by a McDonalds chef

southgate said chilwell had a good game, sums him up

Get rid of southgate FFS absolutely useless !

Southgate is either delusional or dishonest in his appraisal of that performance. Both of these possibilities frustrate the fans. You can't put lipstick on a pig, then look me in the eye and tell me it's Kate Moss, Gareth.

25 games against top 10 ranked teams for southagte, 4 wins

Southgate has the most annoying uninspiring voice ever .

Maybe this is why United want him: he talks utter gash after games😂

How English people don't want to acknowledge their defeat against Italy still baffles me😂

Southgate showed he was toothless in the Euro Final at Wembley. 20 mins from the end deciding the penalty takers. And bringing on that Liverpool defender instead of going for it. That was when he showed his quality. Not good enough!

If a club team hasn't won a league title for years, people rightly question their quality and mentality. Only England gets to win nothing for nearly 60 years but starts every tournament by being favourites. The arrogance and delusion from our media is a national embarrassment. They're a big part of the problem.

If ever there was a chance to see how Maddison would play with Bellingham and rice, this was it… opportunity wasted.

I wish people wouldn't keep saying first defeat in 21 games Go look at who those games were against England are average

The bigger picture is: We need a more attack-minded and creative coach in order to win a competition with the talent we have. Under Southgate we are “also-rans”

Graeme dropping some Italian gems this morning, “senza fantasia” 😂

Southgate is the problem get rid of him. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 England has got an outstanding squad the best they have ever had. They deserve a real quality football coach.

I have many issues with Southgate, one of them being it doesn't matter how we played he always comes out and says we played well and the boys all played well when they didn't. When your lads can't do any wrong they can't improve. His tactics are not suiting the players!!!

Southgate at England feels very much like Solskjaer at United. Lovely bloke but isn't cut out to be a top manager. Southgate will not get a big job after this, he will struggle to find many Premier League clubs willing to gamble, and if one does it will end badly. Man Utd owners should run a mile if they want to achieve anything anytime soon

They should have brought Foden on, can't believe he was on the bench the whole game.

Yet English media says france is Englands only challenge lol. When are they gunna learn. Pile on pressure b4 tournament has even started, crush the lads with pressure. Like clockwork at this point.

There is only ONE factor which matters, WINNING!! What has England won since 66, nothing!! What wins football matches, goals!! We've had a chance to win at the Euros and what did we do, played defensively!! Unless we create we will never win anything!! And another thing, the stats in the Prem really count for nothing!! Foden plays in the best team in club football and surrounded by world class players!! He's not got that when he plays for England which us why he becomes invisible!! When Jose was asked who should never be dropped from England in the last Euros he said Kane and Grealish!! Who did Pep want to sign for Man City, Kane and Grealish!! Why did Pep sign Grealish, to win the champions league and they've won it!! Who did Kane say he wants to play alongside in the national team, Grealish!! Klopp said about Grealish "What a player". The clues are there but Southgate ain't looking or listening!! To win at a National level in a knock out competition we need our best most creative players who the opposition are wary of. Instead we play it safe and thus don't win anything!!

Foden hugging the touchline for 90 mins what a complete waste

A geography lesson this morning from Souness thx for that

Gareth talks a lot BS

The problem with the premier league is it's best players aren't English. So the quality does not translate to the English national team.

Imagine if Pep was in charge of England and he lost a game. Do you think he’d be massaging the team?

When you’ve got access to the players england have, you should be going into every game looking to smash the opposition. Doesn’t matter if it’s friendly, qualifier or tournament. Not playing 10 behind the ball too scared to step forward in case someone gets through you. This team could be the modern era 2008-2012 Spain.

5:27 'the French weren't all that, we will have a go at them' 😂😂 what? France who went on to win the World Cup and have since got to the next World Cup final? That France? 😂

You can't even name 2 stars from Italy, Spain and Germany?? Bro this guy is tripping...

That's the problem with the midfield, no creativity at all. A lot of people disrespect Madders for being at Spurs and all, but at least he is a pure number 10. He is always trying to create a chance for the fowards. It's better to have him in the midfield than a bunch of defensive players.

They should play Maddison

Southgate is just a box ticker.

Southgate isn't great, but Brazil were just better individually. They had so much technically quality. England can be stronger quicker and be more intense but they can't match Brazil technical quality. England needs to play the England way.

It’s simple… when we play a real decent team we lose… and that’s who you will have to beat in order to win a trophy

You guys are talking about the wrong issue. It’s not the team or the players. The problem is the Manager. While he in charge England will not win the Euros or the World Cup.

Southgate nice enough fella , world class manager…. Let’s get real .

Not one mentioned that the best player in the league, according to talksport, didn't even have one touch inside Brazils half. So I'll mention Phil Foden 😂

Erm Graeme Germany have Musiala, Sane, Gnabry, Undav, Reus, Muller, Kroos,Kimmich, Gorestka, Hummel's, Boateng, Neuer. Spain don't pack the same punch but they still have quality players like Rodri, Gavi, Nacho, Gremaldo, Yamal, Ferran Torres and Morata. Italy have way less quality but still have decent players like Chiesa, Barella, Di Marco, Donnarumma,. England probably have the best or second best squad on par with France but England or Southgate usually finds a way to lose. Let's not forget having all those players doesn't equate to being better, a tactically astute, organised and adaptable team of lesser quality can find ways to win.

Baffled why Madison isn't used more. Not sure I would start him but he should be getting more game time.

lets be honest, football strategy & tactic are not Southgate's strong point, he is probably employed for his political connection & PR.

There's real good quality in the team but with Southgate as manager there's just no intimidation factor.

Why does maddison never start !!!!! It's insanity

Like most England managers they are terrified of flair players, he'll never unleash the quality players...

Get Ange in just for the Euros

Totally agree

I've not spoke to 1 person who wants Southgate to stay 😅

😂😂😂😂😂😂 As an Irishman I'm loving this

Best chances from free kicks and corner kicks……that sounds familiar. Wasn’t it the last Euro’s where we mainly scored from set pieces?

Just another top 15 team we’ve not beaten. It’s everytime we play someone who’s average.

He said Bellingham was going down too easily from the fouls f4om the Brazilian players. and followed it with the Brazilian player should have been sent off for all the fouls on Jude. This is what happens when his own opinion contradicts the facts.

The honest truth is Southgate is a people pleaser and hasn’t selected a style of play… the prime example is the decision on Jude/Foden/Kane… one could argue that you can’t play those three players on the same game, Jude/Foden play on the half spaces and thrive where there’s an out and out 9 or no striker infront of them to create space between mid and defense, Kane enjoys the same role playing between midfield and defense he doesn’t sacrifice himself pushing the defensive line back… to create space for others… now play a Callum Wilson type player and have him push a defense all the way back and have Foden/Jude operating in the half space and you’re good or play wingers like Rashford/Sterling with Kane who will double as strikers when Kane drops back

There is no point talking about Maddison, he’d be made to play not ing defensive football under Southgate, and be unreasonable like the rest of our attacking talent! This result should remind us what happens when England faces a decent opponent, and what WILL happen in the euros!

Bottom line is we have a high amount of work’s class players with an absolutely below average manager so realistically is only a coach….

Time and time again he gets found out when it really matters - Croatia 2018, Italy 2020 & France 2022. He’s had 8 years, he needs to go!

Brazil tore us to pieces

Mentality and luck wins tournaments unfortunately we've never had either

People at the FA clearly don't care about winning or losing. It's just important to them that they avoid criticism, stay in their ivory tower positions and that they have a yes man in charge.

Since italia 90 we have not really threatened to look good enough to win a major trophy, we have good players but no one has made us a great team

As an Australian I find Southgate about as inspiring as a damp dishcloth. I hope England for your sake doesn’t win the Euros, and then they can rid themselves of Gareth🤔. Only then might you win the World Cup. If you have a foreign manager…

Can’t imagine how well Southgate will do managing MU. He’s exactly what MU need

He's talking about Brazil's attacking talent. Gareth you literally have the most talented squad in the world!

Southgate is the kinda guy who'd pat himself on the back for reaching the semis when an elite manager would see it as a failure

If a ball boy threw the ball back Fairley good the English would call him a wonder kid. 😅

To answer Souness: Wirtz, Kimmich, Neuer, Kroos, Gündügan & Musiala

Hes not wrong we literally couldn't create any openings and Brazil are hardly know for their defensive brilliance

The smiles of the players say it all at the end I can't stand watching England They are the most overhyped bunch of brats i ever seen, Including Southgate They have achieved absolutely nothing, so stop blowing smoke all over this lot until they achieve something

Greece won the euros based on being solid defensively. The issue is creating a good team and it is questionale if South has that winning mentality

Getting him out his managerial record is 💩

G Souness must be loving this conversation ! 🤪

Euro is 2 months away and he is still figuring out his squad lord save this England team 💀 and Southgate needs to be sacked after the euro even if England wins

I really dont understand any English who back Southgate. I bet they stay in the slow lane on the motorway and slow down when they approach a slower car. never take over, even into the middle lane. Definitely clap when the plane lands.

100 percent spot on

If Graeme was England manager we would 110%. He's pretty much always bang on. Loves to describe the "cute", "intimate", "clever", "on the half turn etc.... Fantastic football brain. PROPER football head.

I don't think there is a fear factor when it comes to playing England. There is respect and an acknowledgement of the quality, but I think the opposition relish having a go at this team. If the opposition were to have lost, well they had to travel a great distance, get acclimatised to the weather and have to try and ignore the boisterous home-side supporters. Brazil were labelled as underdogs coming into this match. So they had nothing really to lose. But what a feather in their cap if they could beat England on their home turf.

The players simply follow the coach's instructions, sack the coach & his obedient assistants now before it's too late!

I would sooner watch paint dry what Southgates saw and what I watched things

Souness has a point about the quality of the opposition at the Euro's i.e average, however Germany are starting to show some form and may have found a formula. They have top class players and can't be ignored.

He's right we have no pattern to our play

These players have better managers at the club level than Southgate. Not exactly rocket science

Graeme ‘I come back to it’ Souness

A little perspective please!!!!! It's a friendly. England spanked Germany 5-1 in a friendly, and they went on to the WC final. England lost to Uruguay 2-1 in May 1990 and went on to semi final.

you gotta play bellingham in the middle with rice, foden or maddison in the hole(if not a 2nd striker), kane saka, left side up for grabs. bellingham has to get on the ball and control the game. it seems so simple :)

This delusion is getting ridiculous now. Our squad is not as good as people think, and pundits, whose job it is to be balanced and know about other teams, are criminally overlooking other nations. Our defence is depleted and shocking, Maguire captain case in point, and unless our first team attackers are in form and uninjured we will actually struggle for goals. Where does Souness get the idea England are so strong. Relegated from nations league performances were absolute dog shite.

Gareth hasnt got the gel right get that right and we have a great team

I'm Scottish but I think everyone being a bit harsh on England.....half your squad don't even want to be there as they've far more important club games on the horizon...Saka went home, Kyle Walker faked an injury after 20 mins so he could go home....I'd be shocked if Harry Kanes injury was anything that will keep him out the next Munich game. Friendly matches at this stage of the season should really be just about trying out some fringe players. Overall performances and results should be taken with a pinch of salt.

Bellingham is falling over every 2 minutes, because that’s what players do who play in Spanish teams. He’s adopted the Spanish culture of going down easily.

Just because EPL ‘best’ league in the world, thanks to foreign investors and foreign players doesn’t mean national team would be the ‘best’ national team in the world. Stop living in fantasies. It never coming home.

he's deluded. england did not have the same sorts of chances at all. walker cleared a vinicius jr 1v1 off the line, endrick missed another 1v1 at the very end. what were england's chances again?

Sums up Southgate perfectly when he actually tells you he was preparing his excuses 15 minutes from the end of the game. Instead of standing on the touchline racking his brains to find a way to win a match in front of a sell out Wembley, he's worried about placating the press. Inept, embarrassing and not fit for purpose. Arsene Wenger is available... GET HIM! 🙄

Souness is right, there are too many poor International teams, and i would include the likes of Germany, Netherlands, Italy, Spain, Brazil and Argentina. Where have all the great players gone? I looked at Brazil the other night, and i didnt know any of them.

we should take ben Johnson for right back in case we needed the position covered he can also play a defensive position in midfield

Simon hit the nail on the head....the foreign players make the England players look better with their clubs. Theyre seriously overrated

I forgot Maddison was also an option, Cole Palme too. If its not working make subs real quick early on, its just a friendly and this must be concerning that in a friendly he wants to play people like Foden, Jude for longer who are not doing anything

Madds was on bench and never got a minute 🤣🤣🤣 this guy should go clueless

Who were those 21 games against though? Yes we played Italy a few times, but Italy have been on a downward trajectory since the last Euros, so they don't count.

Sounds like they finally fixed the mic issues…

Gareth needs to learn that jack butland would have saved that. Grow a back bone Gareth and start selecting people on there performances rather than status

One of our greatest advantages should be the speed of the premier league- our players are used to working at pace, so why does the England team always play slowly?

I forgot Scotland was a bunch of tigers😂

How on earth chilwell gets picked over livramento ill never know. Time and time again, every tournament southgate does something that makes everyone scratch their heads, he's useless.

He’s STILL England’s most successful manager in nearly 60 years….
