So you csn understand he didn't want to change things. I thought the players were just not at it tonight. The midfield was second best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He pulled the wingers deeper and got them to track back more, we played longer and quicker (and ultimately more aimless) rather than holding the ball Look at the impact of the Grealish sub, its Southgate's favourite tactic, 70 mins in bring grealish on a push further up the pitch, we didn't do that vs Iran because we played further up the pitch from the start Maybe one of the papers will do an average player position graphic, we were deeper and that's not because of the USA that's because Southgate reverted to his negative type and showed them too much respect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's tournament football and its a good point. I expect us to be far more proactive against Wales and win that game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bigger the circle for each player the higher the number of passes they made, the colour indicates if they made useful passes or not (red bad green good) the thicker the line between each player the more times that pass was played, again same colour coding Waht you can take from that is that Rice makes a lot of passes that ultimately mean nothing If you then get the same graphic for tonight I'd expect the average positions to be a lot deeper You'd then also expect to see a lot more orange and red on it saying we made a lot of pointless passes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If if starts reverting to a back three and two holding midfield players then I accept hes just too negative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
