England's ACTUAL Problem in The Euros is Gareth Southgate

England should have gone home for long…

i wish gareth watches these kinds of vids

The biggest problem half of 1st 11 is not performing at all. Defender holding ball 2 long n not going forward every time their got d ball. Folden n Saka not performing d last match.

Problem with the team is we are really attacking with no balance in an attacking formation sitting so deep down our midfield is in the defensive area. Southgate doesn’t have a plan B if England are losing that’s the problem.

Do you think Germany can take on spain?

Gareth Southgate Tactical Analysis. When did Southgate ever have tactical insight? Bemoans failings of the team, yet has picked virtually the same players over & over again despite the line up not functioning. He's a footballing coward whose priority is not lose a match rather than being set up to win it. Hence why England always fail because we're not Italians & don't have the requisite skills to close out a game with staunch defending. Last night's rear guard action reminded me of the keystone cops. The Spanish would stroll past our defence at will.

bro are you slow in your head? im falling aswell watching this video. I wish i would have the patience to learn here but you boring and slow as hell :(

Well I’m watching the game and I’m trying to be positive about England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 but it’s not happening

England need to get more players close to Kane and in the penalty box, thats it.

WHARTON MUST PLAY!!!!

hes a choker and a woker , i gave up on him semi finals wc against croatia , hes only gone down hill from that shitshow

Are you a robot ?

England have had success in the past using two out and out wingers, getting plenty of crosses into the box for Kane and others to finish. Southgate dropped Rashford and Grealish who fulfilled that role on the left, and replaced them with Gordon and Palmer, but hasn't started either player , for some strange reason. As a result , England have had no threat from the left wing, and scoring chances have dried up. The defence has been sound, but the attack has been woeful.

Jude seems to spend more time providing balance than getting on the ball

bellinngham looks knackered and hasnt ran in behind since the first half hour of the first game, kane also looks knackered :(

Do you have a email address mate?

The expected goals for and against is the lowest of all remaining squads. England better practice those penalties.

Good analysis. Thanks mate. All the best with your channel.

this is great analysis and something that so many other pundits and analysts don't pick up on enough. it really demonstrates how static we are and lack any kind of movement. but this isn't really new, it's been like this for as long as I can remember. there's this obsession in England about 'keeping width' as if they just should all stay in the position on the teamsheet (as if having players in close proximity is a bad thing) and actually the focus should be on the momevement, as you highlight. when people do think about the movement it's so often simply about 'getting in behind' teams in the context of direct/long passes, rather than using it to stretch teams, or working short passes with lots' of quicker movments to get in behind. I'd quite like to see Foden, Palmer and Mainoo all playing together, I think those 3 in particular all look like they want to be on the move all the time and have the technical ability and understanding to work off each other well and move the ball quickly in tight spaces.

interesting that you picked out Bellingham for making those channel runs beyond Kane and the defensive line. I feel like that's something he hasn't done anywhere near enough of. I'd be intersted to see some stats on that.

👍

LONG BALLS!!!

Thanks for the great analysis. This macro/team tactical view provides a great angle of England's problem apart from identifying each player's issues.

Southgate is fundamentally, a limited manager tactically. He had great success based of a simple system: -3ATB with at least one DM to provide defensive solidity -threat from set pieces -wingbacks who can cross -Kane dropping deep to play runners in behind to compensate for a lack of creative mids -as well as two gift wrapped easy knockout paths in 18 and 21. The losses of Maguire (set piece threat) Shaw (natural width on left) Sterling and Rashford (run in behind) have shown his shortcomings this year and how Gareth really doesn't have a plan B

England has been a big disappointement, you can´t have that amount of quality in your team and play so badly, waste of a gener.ation

oliver glasner would have been my pick for the brighton job after he helped the eagles soar at the back end of the season.

tactics don't matter if you lack a hungry team. Watching England play is torture right now and i want my time back! The issue is that all these Premier League players act like they're at their clubs right now, ZERO motivation to play for their COUNTRY. It's mindboggling how you can play without any fire in your heart, disgusting!

Could your draw lines towards what is happening. it is easier to follow.

Uruguay ran a similar build up yesterday with single pivot and both fullbacks low (as a bielsa Team’s often do). To build on your point of creating eventually overload, Uruguay achieved this through a tremendous amount of movement before and after a line breaking pass. England players were comically slow in comparison. There are so many ways to solve this problem, but they seem incapable of trying. Just like they are incapable of denying progression from their midblock, using a press, or playing in combination to penetrate the back line. I was interested in how they would play Tripier as a right footed left back, but he just does the classic overlap play and is always hindered by having the ball in the wrong foot. It’s a symphony of tactical errors out there.

Your speech cadence and inflection at the end of each sentence is very hard to receive and process information from. I dont know if anyone has told you that. But really good content otherwise. Keep it up.

Ain’t hard to pick a favorite 1/2 way through the group stage

as an austrian i will never understand why non-german speakers keep calling him “tony crews” after all these years… doesnt even matter if theyre english, spanish, etc… so for all of you’s: his real name is pronounced KROHS

I think, quartefinals should be mandatory. Once we play spain in the quartefinals, anything can happen

Every country apart from Russia deserves to win. Luckily they are excluded. Regards from Munich to all other nations participating.

Favourites are still France, England and Portugal

It's a shame that Germany + Spain will meet in the quarterfinals - unless Germany decides to lose against Switzerland, then they would meet in the finals

Especially since now watching France and England perform so poorly it's a clear yes Germany are one of the top favorites.

Your pronunciation of some names is way off!

We had Not the hardest Opponents. Let‘s wait for the first real challenges:D

Germany v Spain will be an amazing game if it happens.

They played scotland and hungary....

bro sounds like Schweinsteiger XD <3

Germany vs Spain will be epic

As a german i can say we are happy allready if we make it into the top 3 after the last major tournament disasters we had

I believe Spain will kick us out in the quarterfinals

imo there are 4 teams that can win the Euros. Apart from their class, each team will need to be on form every single day and also have a little bit of luck. That's just how it is. My top favourites are 1. Germany 2. Spain 3. France 4. Netherlands

It's such a shame that Germany and Spain will likely face off in the round of the last 8. Way too early.

My favorites too!

I disagree with your titel as Spain plays an almost identical system with equally talented players. My bet would be that whoever of these two wins the quarter final, will most probably win the championship.
