Kobbie should have been a starter from the beginning. I can't believe it took Southgate two and a half games and going through TAA and Gallagher to figure it out.
Personally I'd have brought on Palmer and Gordon too, but that'd be too much creativity and pace for Southgate.

Denmark and Serbia has been fun!
Its like watching children with no sense of tactics kicking a ball around on a Sunday morning. Its just all over the place.

'Own Goal' almost got another one! He cranked that into his own net with Venom!
That was a shot fired in anger!

How is Bellingham going to play this whole game? Arguably their worst player in the match.

France finishing second definitely changed the bracket outlook. One side is pretty stacked.

Italy vs Switzerland is already locked as a round of 16 game.

Phil Foden would like a word. Foden is such a Pep system product it’s unbelievable
Cole Palmer has shown more in his 15 minutes on the pitch than the rest of England’s attackers combined for the tournament

how do you take the PL player of the season, La Liga player of the season and the Bundesliga top scorer and have them play a system that makes all of them ineffective? It's actually impressive. And it's funny to hear the exasperation grow and grow in the voices of the German and Austrian commentators while covering their games ... no one can't believe it lol.
Best thing about these games is the yellow card battle between Slovenia and Denmark for second place. i've never seen anything like that.

New Rule, if both games in the third games of one group end up 0-0, the entire group is eliminated from moving on.

I think Southgate has accidentally found his best 11 now with the guys on the pitch after the Gordon change. At least they’re complimentary skill sets now

Needed Denmark to win so England would have finished second and had to play Germany

5 draws and one 1-0 win. Scintillating group.
Denmark 2nd and Slovenia 3rd ... difference is a single yellow card.

I think we’re all thinking about this the wrong way. It’s not Southgate. This is the Harry Kane curse

Honestly Southgate should just recall Phillips and Henderson, might as well go down with his OG's.

I was looking past round of 16. My matchups that I listed were potential quarter finals.

Belgium have been, as usual, thoroughly underwhelming.
