- Sure, England’s team is littered with superstars, but that doesn't change the fact that they were seconds away from elimination against Slovakia on Sunday. Still, the performances have been well below par for England and the only solace that Southgate will take so far from this tournament is that they’re in the quarterfinals without having played well. At all. The opposite can be said for Switzerland who have been excellent under Murat Yakin. The Swiss dismantled Italy in the last 16 and their fluid attacking system of Rieder, Embolo and Vargas buzzing around ahead of Freuler, Xhaka and wing backs Ndoye and Aebischer pushing forward too has been brilliant to watch. Switzerland won’t be favourites with the bookmakers for this game but anybody who has watched them at this tournament knows they are in much better form than England and they look solid defensively too with Akanji, Schar, Rodriguez and Sommer having incredible tournament experience. Here is my tactical preview for tomorrows game...

Ste, i think you secretly sleep in England pajamas
Southgate Pyjamas
😂😂
But I think today, for Ste, they’ll be tears before bedtime. Can’t see England bumbling through this one. It’s maybe coming home.
Why does it seem like you cannot wait for England to lose so you can eviscerate Southgate? It’s like the ten hag out Utd fans who were doing the same last season
Because Southgate would deserve it, hasn't got a huge injury list...players smacking women around, players turning up late, a botched takeover bid, players not running on the pitch but are paid 300k a week.
There's definitely some confirmation bias, but Ste has not been holding back on his criticism even when England won.
Switzerland 2-1 England
Or nor
Plp still picking Foden after he played straight poot for 4 games straight?
Dude the entire team is playing shit besides 1-2. It’s got little to do with the players and most of it down to the manager having zero clue. Explain how a premier league player of the year plays like a mid table player for his country? You think it’s just a coincidence?
Yet every time he plays against united in his preferred position he smashes them doesn't he
@@stevem9529 what is his preferred position?
@@coconutzmilk central attacking midfield, where he just won player of thr year
@@stevem9529 no he didn't. Check the number of times he actually played centrally compared to on the left and right. The thought that he's played loads there is a myth. Debruyne and Alvarez always occupied the central positions.
Maybe Gallagher can do the headless chicken job, he can literally only run around the pitch anyway
Exactly what I was thinking
It's very possible England will fluke their way to the gold. Would be kinda hilarious tbh.
It's not a fluke then, you would have to give Southgate credit
I'd take a lucky trophy any day...
There are so many troll accounts.
Your lineup sounds on point, Ste.
put kalvin phillips on xhaka
😅
Well this was completely wrong again 😂
I'd go with Saka at left back with the instruction that the defence become a back 3 in possession and the two midfielders screen. We need some outswinging crosses from the left, although that would make sense if Toney or Watkins were playing up front. Gordon to stretch, I don't mind Palmer on the right because he is intelligent enough to at least occupy the right half space and drag the full back out, even if he doesn't run past him. It shifts the oppo back line to the side and gives an opportunity for a gap to appear for a through ball
We should mirror their formation as we have better players suited to this formation.
If you have 2 fast capable aggressive tall full backs then play 2-3-3-2.
I have a feeling Southgate will start Trippier and Walker again as they are more defensive minded. Part of me thinks he might even start Gallagher again as he is also more defensive. In fact if theres ever any decision between two players as to who Southgate will start just expect the more defensive player to start as thats what he does. Its going to be a complete shitfest of football but we will win by a single goal or penalties
Gordon could probably do that role if instructed to. He works hard AF
Oi! I know some farmers that are bloody good footballers!
Most play rugby one a Sunday too, super strong, super fit.
It would be Gallagher
He'd probably get Red Carded though...
We don’t need him for semi’s anyways lol
Gallagher on xhaka. Worth dropping mainoo for tht reason, even in H2
He's going for a 3-4-3
Completely agree. I do fear that GS will lack the balls to make a big change that involves dropping Kane, Tripps, Walker, and Foden which could make the system work properly. He will do a half-arsed measure of changing the formation but without dropping big names /favourites and the system and approach will be dysfunctional. It's so annoying knowing that we have the personnel to make big changes and yet he won't do it.
Why would he drop Kane? Not sure where the hate comes from. It’s the players job to feed Kane which they don’t do.. People cry about him dropping deep but if he has runners then he’s got effective passing.. Like when he put Trippier through last week.. Kane isn’t the problem.
@@carlrigby9231 Kane just get crowded out in the midfield. Agasint 3 on form defenders he won't see the ball. At least Watkins/Toney could stretch the play and make runs or pressure more effectively. I'd bring Kane on later in the game.
Pickford
Walker, Stones, Konsa
Trent, Bellingham, Mainoo, Rice, Saka
Palmer, Toney
Swiss are great on penalties so Slowgate better go for them from minute one.
Great analysis
I'm ready for pep to reinvent his tactics this summer to counter the tactics he created last year-2 that everybody is now trying to copy😂😂
Good point. So many managers are unashamedly copying pep
Bet this guys fun at parties ! Is he Scottish? England will win , he needs to calm down.
He is definitely playing 3 at the back😂
It has been widely reported that Southgate will be playing 3 at the back with attacking full backs not a back 4, probably forced due to suspension and possibly injury 😮
I honestly think this is where England bow out of the euros. Switzerland will know what to do to beat England, the weaknesses are abundant in this England side. They’ll have a field day of chances at goal, it’ll just be a matter if whether their forwards will be clinical to finish England off or allow England to come away with an unconvincing 1-0 win
Great analysis
The player can do the park job is Gallagher his the only one
I think it end here for Southgate. Against Switzerland.
Italy rolled over for Switzerland.
England for as poor as they have played showed they don’t want to accept defeat, I don’t credit Southgate with that I just think a lot of Englands players don’t want to lose and have somehow clung on or found a goal.
@jamiemorgan i agree Italy was shocking,poor as England are they still got fight in them
To answer the England's Ji Sung Park answer: Ward-Prowse
Great tactical breakdown as per .But all week, we've been media fed GS going with a back 3. Which suggests he might just match up formation wise with Yakin & the Swiss. Trouble is Yakin's been drilling them for 3 years in this system & they look like a well coached club side, with their fluidity & movement . If megamind GS thinks he can match up with less than a weeks work, then it's trouble all the way. Best case scenario , see extra time & pens for England.
He only switched to this system like half a year ago or so. After the team rebelled following a bad start of the qualification campaign. They are just better coached plus this is a system a lot of them play in at their clubs. As it is a German system from the last couple of years.
Thing is, in the Euro 2020 final we played a back 3. Think we did it against Germany too
@Hyde_Hill thx for that. It just goes to show that a good manager/ coach can implement a system & style of play in months.
We’re playing 3 at the back you donk
Surely the counter to the 3223 is 523...
Switzerland have been good? Have they tho? anyone would have beat the Italy team. The Swiss think their team have been average. I tend to agree. England should beat the Swiss
But England haven't been average they've been terrible against worse teams than Switzerland what do you think is going to change
@@m7aui953 yeah I agree, which average team will be better I guess?
@@Panzer489 clueless?
@@Panzer489 yup didn’t win
@@Panzer489 turn it in son, I’m Welsh, Switzerland are average, that’s all I said. Have a lie down.
I'm running out of Hopium 🥴
Didnt he say they will play 352
England’s going to win this tonight. I have no doubt. Next game against the Dutch will be more difficult.
Na
@@rajakhan-lr1yx as I was saying 😁
@@rajakhan-lr1yxgone all shy have we?
@@brandonking2679 😁😆
I mean I think he’s pony, but I think gallagher is the only midfielder england have in the mould of an ander herrera/3 lung in terms of sticking him on someone and doing a job. I just think it sacrifices a lot in terms of control and ball retention because he’s gash imo
This has aged like milk.
This ia a red coat coming out party. The brits win in dominate fashion.
Either way, I'll be laughing. Being an international Man United fan is fun. There is absolutely ZERO obligation to support any country.
A very large portion of United's English fan base don't care about England either.
@@Stan.k.Phlaps6447 Considering what happened to Beckham, I'm inclined to agree.
@@MonkeBrain07 I disagree, that only happens when people care about their country's results. I'm an Indian, I've seen people throwing rocks at Sachin's house after a loss in cricket, he was considered the "God" of cricket for context.
@@abhishektyagi2128 Beckham was abused by England fans who are not United fans. The ONLY people defending him were Man United staff and fans. It was proper bad.
Being a Man Utd fan must be tough enough nowadays 😂
10 at the back 1 at the front ha ha
Dear England before the game have a watch of the Venezuela Canada highlights from the Copa America last night and do something similar. I. E. Get stuck in a have a go at entertaining us
Time to resurrect the age old cliche a champion team will always beat a team of champions
Aye, do you hate Southgate himself or just the discourse around him. Some of my mates are thick as fuck but I don’t hate them. I’d hate it if people tried to convince me they were clever
🇨🇭3:1🏴
Swiss to win,
Next time
Is howson aware he is English??
He's one of those people that believe the city here lives in (in his case Manchester) should be it's own country. Which I always find super weird being from the town smack bang in the middle of Liverpool and Manchester.
Just different player's and people talking the drivel who weren't born then
france are in a semi final after not scoring a single open play goal, everything is lining up for england to sh!! house there way to winning the thing
France had a difficult group, England had it easy and is struggling 😂
Have Conor Gallagher do the Ji Sung Park role but that would require dropping Bellingham or Foden. So a midfield three of Rice, Mainoo and Gallagher would be nice. Toney up front because he can play ST by himself. No Kane
Whats worth to do with anything 😂 pathetic begging 🙄
Bellingham should be dropped for Palmer in that 10 role. We literally have scored 3 goals in full 90s against Slovenia Denmark Serbia and Slovakia …
And Bellingham scored two from that role. Best player on the pitch in G1 and the savior is G4. Is he the problem or is it Gareth and the rest of the squad? Why is Foden still slated for a start? Kane has been horrible minus two goals that no stinker should miss.
@@landothomas1118I like the use of stinker instead of sticker.
@@craigfoulkes - lol. Striker
@@landothomas1118 2 goals for Bellingham = 10 goals that Foden kane saka palmer would have scored. It’s like Ronaldo at United he scored a lot but he killed our attack at the same time
@@HabitsThatThrive - I agree with the CR7 analysis. It’s on Southgate because he failed to give Palmer more minutes and play Gordon and Watkins. Kane hasn’t been a threat. Kane and Foden are struggling to find something in the game. JB’s mentality is above all others. His belief in his ability is something that needs to be nurtured. Do you remember the late great Kobe Bryant? He’s proving himself above the rest of the team. That’s what great leaders do. Let him lead.
jude got 1 match ban
Suspended for a year.
£300,000 fine.
Play Ivan Toney and Kane upfront.....4-4-2...long balls to avoid the Swiss press...
Just take Kane off and let him be super sub. Goodness, Portugal and ourselves are making the exact same mistake
btw, Jude is suspended. lol. say goodbye
No, his ban was suspended.
southgate is the weakest link
Coin flip on this. On paper England should win but playing shit and Switzerland have been one of the best teams in the comp so far. Could go to pens
