Yep. Take the lead, then defend for the rest of the game. Guy still thinks this is the way despite what happened v Croatia and Italy.
Worst thing is when we go into contain mode the players don't even seem to know what to do. Any cohesion just disappears to the point we can't even counter attack. Just hoof it to Kane and hope he wins a freekick to relieve a bit of pressure.
Dunno why I even bother getting pissed off by it or hope to see summat different. Guy's fuckin clueless.

I dearly hope Southgate ends up being scums manager.
Aside from that, he has to go after this tournament win or lose. We are wasting the greatest crop of players we’ve had, possibly ever.

Agree Jay. This is the best England squad I've ever seen. That front 4 scored over 100 goals last season for the absolute cream of Europe.
Yet last night yielded the lowest number of shots in a Euros match since 1980.
You know a team is badly coached when the keeper rolls it out to the CB who points and screams at the midfield for a few seconds and then passes back to keeper to put his foot through it, over and over.

Fuck tactical nous. To be a manager these days you just need to be media friendly. We are in the age of the charlatans.
