Keane ball watching on both goals, the second goal the striker hardly moved yet Keane ran away from him and left him in acres of space. If its clever movement from a striker to lose the defender then fair enough but it was hardly that.

Quoted from supertown
It’s the first really poor performance for quite a while , calm down


Maybe the first “really” poor one but not the first poor one. The same pattern over again. Plan A works for 10 minutes and gets a goal. The athletes and the scurriers up front look dangerous. Opposition susses out the tactic and marks up putting pressure on England midfield and defence. No answer, no partnerships, no cohesion, no defensive tactics, no basic marking, no distribution. Any international coach worth his salt who has watched England for the last 12 months knows how to win and the England coach doesn’t.


“If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.”
― John Stuart Mill, On Liberty."

Our problems last night came from out wide. Our full backs were poor and had no cover in front of them. This meant that the centre halves were pulled out wide. Every attack came from out wide.

We have the best full back in Europe in Alexander Trent Arnold but pick Rose ahead of him (unless he was injured?).

Echoes of Jolleys tactics in not using or defending the wings?

Trent Alexander-Arnold is a right-back, whereas Rose is a left-back?

We had no movement either.  This makes life harder for ourselves.  Maybe the team were too complacent and with the players selected, could not raise their game?

The majority of the players selected are either out of form or out of favour with their club sides. Why not pick players in form.
As soon as I saw both Henderson & Rice selected I new it would be a waste of time watching

I think Rice ('Up the R.A.!') looks like he could potentially be a good defensive midfielder but his touch and passing was well below-par last night. Same can be said for most of our defensive players in fact.

Sorry for confusing left and right back!

Point is Rose is struggling in a poor Spurs side but still makes the England squad. I stand by what I say about Trent Alexander Arnold.  He's played in pressure matches all season and was unlucky not to get a premier winner's medal, played in two Champuons League finals, yet isn't a regular for England. Keane struggles at centre half, ok in the league, but not an international IMHO.
