Game 17: Denmark vs England live from the Frankfurt Arena. BBC1 5pm

[Pukey]

We were good for about 3 minutes, but have been steadily getting worse for ages. Really, really poor first half.

I didn't expect that, England's had complete control.

No, we're literally the worst team ever apparently. Daring to be drawing against pub side amateurs Denmark, who could only have possibly scored because we deliberately set up to let then.

Why have we been so slow and ponderous since scoring?

Have you never watched Southgate’s England team before?

like... defensively we were doing fine and they weren't really causing us any problems despite having all the ball. You can't always mitigate for a strike like that. 

We did everything to give them opportunities like that though, dropping so deep with none of our midfield closing anyone down.

[The Amazing Dale Watkins]

I mean it's one thing to sit back and defend a 1-0 lead, but they just keep playing like that even after the equalizer. Danes in control 

[skybluedave]

Bellingham been anonymous 

[Coulthard's Jaw]

PASS IT YOU ****ING MUG FODEN

[VP.]

Why the **** did Foden shoot?

[Lucas]

Foden does the most exciting thing all half. 

[GunmaN1905]

I never really understood how Sporting managed to get Hjulmand, he's a class midfielder.

[Darren Moores Mum]

Why are you shooting there FFS?

[aiston]

Trippier on his own on the left again, no help at all from Foden.

[aiston]

Foden

Why.

[Darren Moores Mum]

Walking pace

[Mr Adam]

Great run by Foden but wtf is he shooting for there 

[arenaross]

Foden has to move central or stay on the bench, my god. 

[titchuk]

Has Foden gone rogue?

In my defence we've been so poor after scoring, same as against Serbia. 

There is no defence, OTF has condemned you

[Robson 07]

Trent's ineffective.  It's not working Gareth, get unstuck from this idea. 

[Coulthard's Jaw]

Foden gets the ball in good areas and starts looking exciting

Always leave yourself open to it by dropping back though, think we can afford to be a little more adventurous against this defence, Christensen is having a poor match vs Walker and Vestergaard is *****

[Baptista_8]

This is really poor

Yeah it's an idea but it's not working, ditch it

[EnterUsernameHere]

Foden has been absolutely awful.

[Coulthard's Jaw]

Kane trying to dribble out of defence like prime Messi...

[VP.]

Kanes dropped back to the sweeper role.

[Craigus89]

That was literally the first decent phase of play from us all game. FFS.

[Vynal Seven]

Trent isn’t a midfielder, who knew? 

[Darren Moores Mum]

Foden, TAA, Kane...how many times giving the ball away?

[Lucas]

Not sure it’s Gareth’s idea is it? Who was it that said Trent was a midfielder?

It's just boring isn't it. No tempo whatsoever.

So slow and poor quality 

[sc91]

Scotland redeemed themselves but England and Czechia are firmly in the 'get these dull teams on the plane home' group.

[Barnzy]

Rice is not having a good game 

[Smallen]

I will die on this hill but we are dying to for Gordon left wing for genuine width and Trent inverted from left back. That way we can get an actual midfielder into where Trent is playing at the moment and get a genuine attacking outlet down the left rather than Trips who is just a non-event out there.

He's not allowing us to control midfield.  Need someone more industrious. 

[Haguey]

Please, Harry, I beg you just stand on Vestergaard and win all the 1v1's

[CFuller]

Trent Alexander-Arnold is not Joshua Kimmich. Who knew?

England is in it's own category because it's the only team with actual top level players that's offered nothing.

[titchuk]

Gordon and Mainoo for Foden and Trent I reckon.

[aiston]

Kane's put more tackles in on the edge of our own box than our midfield 3.

[Mr Adam]

It’s like Denmark are allowed to run and England are only allowed to walk

[Redshift]

England have the possession of Casper the friendly ghost right now.

[Baptista_8]

Foden loves a **** shot

[VP.]

Right Foden and TAA off please.

[Darren Moores Mum]

Yeah, get Foden off

[Coulthard's Jaw]

I don't think Foden works on the left AT ALL.

[arenaross]

This is a tactical disasterclass from Southgate, we’re all over the place.

[Anthrax Dave]

So incredibly frustrating. We have all the talent in the world, but a manager who is clueless when it comes to getting the best out of them.

 

Fair play to Denmark, though, been the better team.

[aiston]

Get Foden and TAA off at HT. Southgate won't at all though.

[Haguey]

It's the same two players who weren't great last time isn't it, time to try something else Waistcoat
