All he had to do was start the XI that finished the last match.

Big G. Neville speaking facts at halftime.

Trent RB, Walker LB, Gordon LW, Palmer RW.

England need to improve. Kane is dropping too deep still. Only good thing is Mainoo. He's been England's best player so far.

[–] 2000mph@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

Playing basically the same starting lineup again. Just Mainoo in.

Don't think Southgate will ever change things up, we just have to hope the fact it's a knockout game actually wakes the players up. It's all on them to change things for the better cause the manager won't.

I was seconds away from betting Slovakia to to score first and then booom goal. My prediction is 2-1 let's see.

Why lol? I also lost the first goal Georgia, cause I'm traveling and I don't have good signal. I lost 2 bets men...... Btw I have Georgia 2-1 to win.

Sod's law innit

I thought you meant 2-1 to England, I was just surprised both your predictions had come to pass

[–] roserose56@lemmy.ca 1 points 4 months ago

2-1 win for England.

And now we have to suffer at least another 30mins of this rubbish. Thanks Bellingham but almost would have preferred the final whistle before the goal.

[–] Theme@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 4 months ago

What an incredible few minutes either side of 90. What an unbelievable goal

(Massive let off for Gareth)

[–] Jackthelad@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

My prediction for this one is 0-0.

It's going to be a thriller!

[–] 2000mph@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Well Slovakia have made it thrilling. England.... Not so much.

[–] Jackthelad@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

This is not surprising. We have Gareth Southgate as the manager.

Not even any changes at half-time. Absolutely fucking useless.

[–] 2000mph@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Yeah it's frustrating. Change it up, make the opposition team have to readjust to a new line up, new players, new formation.

Do something to challenge them.

[–] Easyreever@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Foden looks like trash in this game. Squandered away opportunities. He shouldn’t be on the field if Bellingham is on.

[–] kameecoding@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Heartbreak for us. england did not deserve to go through, will be painful for strelec regretting not scoring that gift from bellingham from the half way line

[–] kameecoding@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

The swiss will absolutely dismantle this English team if Southgate lines up the same team

[–] Vinny_93@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Does anyone know why those kids all join these players on the field for the anthems?

[–] UndercoverUlrikHD@programming.dev 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)
[–] Vinny_93@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Ah thanks. Yeah I see it all the time and I was just wondering where it came from and why this happens.

[–] bitchkat@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

They even do that in amateur leagues in the USA (USL-W for example)

[–] Vinny_93@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yeah they also do it in the Dutch football leagues but I was just wondering why

Are you kidding me ? England can't score? Jeez....
