I think they realised it wasn’t worth the risk of getting hurt so took their foot off the gas.

These friendlies mean nothing.

Southgate is a rotten manager. Also what's the point of Lewis dunk getting 10 minutes. He's 32 years old. He's not for now or the future

Not sure the commentators even mentioned his awful header that led to the goal. If it was Maguire they’d have banged on about it non-stop

We’ve probably got a chance of going far with our best XI but beyond that the pickings are slim if anyone’s injured or suspended

Canada beat Trinidad and Tobago 2-0.

Will now play in the Copa America as theyve invited Concacaf teams who finish top 4 in Nations league to participate.

We'll be grouped with Argentina, Chile, and Peru. Play the opener vs Argentina which is great.

Still no permanent manager though and it's been 5 months which is insane. Federation is a total mess and ij financial ruin.

Best team we've ever had though, but not being given the right support unfortunately.

Hopefully we can improve and the Copa will help with the prep for the WC in 2026. Get a few of the younger players some competitive minutes against quality opponents.

Does anyone really think Southgate is going to win England the Euros? Like genuinely?

The bloke has Rico Lewis on the bench and is starting Ezri Konsa at RB here.

He's a fucking useless manager. Hope we get hammered tonight. Vile shite.

Don't know anyone who's enjoyed watching England for years. In fairness for much longer than even Southgate has been manager

Answer to that no we completely fluked the WC18 but got out played by a Croatia team that played 3 rounds of extra time and he bottled the euros at home. Fraud who lucked out. Boring to watch ,

"Is there a perception he (Romelu Lukaku) has never reached his top level here (in England)?"

Great punditry there. He's never played better than when he was with us.
