I mean allardyce is a very very very very very very very mediocre manager anyway and was only appointed due to the nationalist nature of the lress and public opinion in england so it doesn't really matter you guys are doomed to fail in your isolation :(

Also i really can't understand how you can call out the "hidden cameras are a dick move" part since what he did is completely unhetical and had to come out (even if most people already knew something fishy was going on) and all the current mess is going to benefit the state of this sick league in the long term. And of course some Italians are involved, probably Juventus supporting ones...

of all the teams that could have ended the streak, why did it have to be spurs

There were signs of weaknesses against Swansea too but it got brushed over after another win. They couldn't deal with the pressing.

EDIT: Wow, how did Pogba escape any punishment with his takedown on Allen? Referee was right next to him. Not even a foul was called.

Ander Herrera too tried to injure Allen with that "tackle".

Southate team selection is shite
Sturridge.. please.. all he does is shoot when he should pass and pass when he should shoot.
 
they were only playing Norway

Norway dont have Athletico Madrids keeper in net.
and Sturridge still has no clue when to pass or shoot

The England players seems like they had EPL in their minds already. Sturridge has always been like that but it's only highlighted now because he's off-form.
 
except he usually scored them.
he is only on the bench at Liverpool, yet starts over strikers who are playing for their clubs.
 
If you watched Liverpool recently, his finishing was erratic the past few games when he get subbed on. No idea why he gets to start for England in his current form (though Liverpool will have to start him vs MU due to injury issues).

In fairness, nobody other than Hart covered themselves in glory in that game. Sturridge, Walcott and Lingaard stands out as among the poorest.

yea but last season he scored when he played, regardless of where he shot from.
our attacking play wasn't helped by the all the stupid backwards and sideways passing, Southgate has turned into LvG.
 
No creative players in the team that can split open defences. England missed Lallana who can carry the ball from midfield to attack. Sterling's pace would have helped too. You also have Henderson and Dier in midfield and those players aren't exactly comfortable in possession. Alli, Walcott, Lingaard and Sturridge stinking the place out doesn't help either. (why aren't Vardy or Rashford involved is still a mystery to me)
