England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 v Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 predictions

[Priv]

Worrying lack of intensity again after a busy first 5-10 minutes. No heatwave weather this time either.

dull boring and slow, lacking imagination, I’d be making at least 2 changes Kane and Mount dreadful with Foden and Sterling not much better.

 

[gravy173]

Sterling back to type passing the ball straight back to where it came from, no movement at all from England on the left hand side, take foden out of the team and we’re bang average here.

Ring the changes Southgate.

 

[parmoboy]

Kane is way off the pace and Rice is anonymous.

Needs changing.

I'd drop mount into midfield and bring on Grealish.

Bamford for Kane.

 

[HiredGun123]

Poor from England

get Grealish on to get a bit of a spark. All to flat at the moment. Sterling looking like he couldn’t trap a bag of sand.

 

[Laughing]

England are way too slow at moving the ball.

If Scotland get a goal England may struggle to lift their game.

At the minute you wouldn't know that one team is packed with prem talent and one is made of tier 2 footballers.

 

[Corcaigh_the_Cat]

England started strongly but Scotland have bettered them. England have been sssssssllllllllloooooowwwww moving, poor in midfield with Rice too deep leaving us easy to mark, no outlet. Scotland moving through midfield with ease at times.

It's a bit unfair to say England are tier 2 footballers.

There was a point early in the half where Foden plays a one two, has acres of space to push forward into but instead back-heals it back to the same player. Why

The 'plan'.

Sorry if we play like we did in the first half against the likes of France or Belgium we will be ripped to pieces.

Still think we’ll despatch Germany pretty easily @BoroMart?

Kane was awful. Looks way off the pace. He wasn’t the only one though.

He did last game too, I was surprised to see him start. DCL for me next match

Mings was our MoTM for me, and that tells you a lot about our poor performance. We need to get Foden and Grealish on the pitch at the same time.

 

[indeedido]

Kane is being told or being allowed to play too deep to accommodate Sterling running in behind.
Playing Rice and Phillips is not going to work.
We need creative players allowed to play.
They were so negative, slow and deep last night it was pitiful.
Play Mount deeper if he plays and let Grealish play 10 and pull the strings.
Get the woeful Sterling out of the team.

 

[BoroMart]

Kane is being told or being allowed to play too deep to accommodate Sterling running in behind.

I think it's frustration at his ineffectiveness. HE starts high up the pitch and drops deeper to get involved as the match progresses. He's done it in many recent england matches not just the last 2.
