Quarter Final 3: England vs Switzerland live from the Düsseldorf Arena. Saturday BBC1 5pm

[Lucas]

The BBC montage really hits me in the feels. Hyped. Want us to win but very sceptical. 

[The Amazing Dale Watkins]

Head says England to bore the Swiss team to death and sneak a late winner, probably by the man of the tournament, Own Goal. 

Heart says Hopp Schwiiz!

[SouthCoastRed]

I’m going full blown Rob today, this is it, this is where we wake up.

Smash this lot to pieces with the best football seen in the tournament 

In Gareth I believe.

 

 

 

God help me!

You never go full Rob.

[Nordan]

England 1-0, surely the election results have created enthusiasm.

The side of the most of the fans out there lost the election

To go full Rob, you must become Gareth.

I'm dead serious when I say whenever I see Southgate, the first thing I think of is Rob.

[Redshift]

Well, here we go. I'm not expecting much so I'm in a position to be pleasantly surprised.

[Gary_Parker]

Interesting to see how England get on today, different setup, same personnel.

I’ve become 99.99% convinced over the years that Rob is actually Gareth, but he can’t obviously post on a football forum under his real name.

[Darius1998]

God Save the Cheese.  

[GunmaN1905]

Even the anthem is calling for God to save someone from Gareth's football.

[ceefax the cat]

Looks like same formation as before tbh

[TalkSport]

4-3-3 it is.

[Haguey]

Gareth has baited the Swiss and the press!

[Barnzy]

No change! Jesus 

[Bliss Seeker]

Err is Saka right wing back? 

 

[Baptista_8]

Too risky to change...gotta be cautious.

[Astafjevs]

Switzerland are another team that might make it difficult, but ultimately lack quality. 

[GunmaN1905]

Winning combination should never change!

[Lucas]

Saka on the right it looks like. Weird. 

[Coulthard's Jaw]

Same formation   

[arenaross]

Oh Gareth.

Trolling at its very best

[Haguey]

It's the same setup as the lats game chaps, just Konsa in for Guehi. Saka is RW

[Darius1998]

Interested to see how this plays out with 4 at the back.

Yakin said before the Italy game that if they played 4 at the back, they would destroy them and then they did.

[Astafjevs]

Foden is very central. I think it's 3-4-2-1 but Saka is right wingback

[Vynal Seven]

He hasn’t changed it at all has he?

Well maybe this then  I thought it was the bait formation of 3 at the back. 

[Coulthard's Jaw]

What IS this formation

[EnterUsernameHere]

It's looking like 3 at the back but somehow it's Saka right wing back?

[mrmeee17]

At least he has the sense not to put Saka at LB.

Edited July 6 by mrmeee17

[Haguey]

Gareth has gone MAD

No formation, just VIBES

[GunmaN1905]

It's Pep's 3-2-4-1.

I don't think Pep would play Trippier at left wing, but whatever.

[Haguey]

Saka advanced attacking inverted wing back 

[SouthCoastRed]

See, if we’re confused, the Swiss must be in meltdown

 

Genius

[TalkSport]

Wing back to wing back. Ok shearer.

[Coulthard's Jaw]

Huge gaps there, don't like that

[Bootador]

Come on England

[Redshift]

There's a chance Gareth's formation might work against teams that don't pack their midfield with players just to stop England playing from the back.

[Lucas]

What’s with Kyle Walker tripping on his own feet? Happened twice now  

[Haguey]

Southgate has spent the last 3 days reading All The Books about positional play!

[SouthCoastRed]

He’s got his child benefit books tucked in his socks

This is already much better

[Coulthard's Jaw]

This gets Foden into much better positions

He's trying to be Trippier.

Trippier roasted easily already
