Neither side could make a breakthrough until the manager brought on two players who combined to score the winner on 91 mins. If he was a manager you liked you’d say he was a genius.

pete101 Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Think what a lot of people have missed is, Southgate made a huge mistake at halftime, The first half Trippier was very brave, he pinned Dumfries in and gave him no chance to attack at all, Second half Shaw comes on, the poor guy is obviously not fit, he couldn't pass the halfway line. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I'm going to double down, as a neutral looking on Trippier seems to be the Scape goat of this whole squad, the lad is not perfect but he puts a shift in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And more people may yet. I mean, people do change perspectives based on what they see before them, too. At worst, couldn't it be said that he has done a good job of staging some skin-of-the-teeth and serendipitous moments of magic? That's not a small thing. He knew enough to get Ollie and Ezri on the plane. Edited July 11 by Marka Ragnos 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southgate can take a fair bit of credit for tonight's win. I hate him and I'm one of his biggest critics here.... But he's done a few things tonight that warrant a bit of praise. We started the game with confidence and dominated the first half. A stupid error costs us a goal, but we didn't let our heads drop. Shaw proved he isn't fit, but the change was theoretically a good one to try and get us more openings. It didn't work out that way, but the theory was right. The subs of Palmer and Watkins were late, but they did come with more time then the previous game when he subbed on Toney with 2 minutes to go. Steps in the right direction. I have zero confidence he'll be able to set us up in a way to beat Spain, and even if he does, I think their offence is just too threatening for our defence and terrible keeper to cope with. But if he did manage to beat them, he'd deserve the praise because it can only happen with a masterclass. Edited July 10 by MrBlack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birdman Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 (edited) That early Dutch goal was better for us than them. The kick we needed. Watched a different team tonight and actually enjoyed the game. Unbelievable Jeff! Edited July 10 by birdman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markc Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Nice touch from the BBC highlights show. On the finishing montage they ended with a clip of Ollie, with the penultimate one of Graham Taylor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomC Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 Watkins and Konsa were on the pitch together for the last few minutes of the match...can anyone think of the last time two Villans were on the pitch at the same time for England at a major tournament?

TheAuthority Posted July 11 VT Supporter Share Posted July 11 I absolutely love the last 4 seconds of the BBC highlights. They show a shot of Koeman (who ended Sir Graham Taylor as England manager with the help of a bent ref) then a shot of SGT smiling and then our Ollie Watkins. I think someone who put that together really knows their stuff. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
