Round of 8 (AKA The Quarter-Finals)

You've got to laugh. He's absolutely clueless.


He wont be managing an Iceland shop nevermind another club or country.

Being a manager of an international team must be one of the easiest jobs going plus you clearly don’t need to be very good at it.

 

[JimmyJeffers]

Dont gamble these days which is probably just as well as I’d be tempted to put a small fortune on a Swiss win. Some of the odds being offered are crazy

What should he have done? I'm just curious what everyone thinks the answer is.

 

[Efcjake]

Nice little gift from everyone's second favourite Ireland player Kevin Kilbane

 

[aazak]

I just hope it's a good game for the neutrals

 

[Jamiednm]

It’ll just be more of the same dirge.

It’s not like they’ll go from 4 straight appalling performances to a good one, just like that.

Just sticking Konsa in for Guéhi without changing the formation.

I have other suggestions. Dropping Foden and Kane would probably do wonders but he's not going to do that.

It's been reported all week that he's going to a 3-4-3 and that it isn't just sticking Konsa in. Now if he's done that yeah it's an issue.

I'd not even have had Kane on the plane but once you make him captain it is tough to drop him when he's scored the prior game.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Media build up to the game is ridiculous.

 

[Kevsleftpeg]

At least it’s a balanced team from Gareth. For me the biggest problem was trying to hold the width on the left with a player that doesn’t use his left foot.

It's a terrible team.

 

[tantavisiteler]

Southgate prolly hates Chelsea players. I don't know what Palmer has to do to start, play like prime Messi?

I'd drop Trippier, put Saka on the right and Gordon on the left and drop Foden for Palmer

 

[BlueStevie35]

What should he have done? I'm just curious what everyone thinks the answer is.

Trippier has been garbage, if he’s playing a wing back formation then Trent Notta Midfielder should be in on the right, Saka isn’t a wing back and Foden shouldn’t be starting

 

[maccavennie]

Pickfords fault that we can't string 4 passes together apparently, he kicks it too long.

 

[Kevsleftpeg]

What should he have done? I'm just curious what everyone thinks the answer is.

Walker left back, TAA right, Gordon left wing, Palmer right, Mainoo and Rice in the middle (personally I would bin Rice because he's a black hole in possession and play Wharton but that's too radical. Foden or Bellingham in the 10, Watkins up front
