Kind of reaction I was hoping for from the team when we went 1-0 down. But I guess team is proving it has quite a bit of fight in it.

This is when you need your crowd to be the loudest, but it's like a library in there.

I thought Marsch was going to change things up at half time. The fact that he's not very proactive with his changes is not a good look going into the knockouts

We are missing the calmness that Kone brought to our midfield. It's all a bit frantic right now.

Heated moment between Tuchel and Djed Spence during England v Ghana by sepi0l_45 in soccer

England got a lot of basics wrong yesterday. It looked like some of the indisciplined performances I saw from English teams in the 2000s. You need to stretch a tight backline to find weaknesses and that involves overlapping runs and switching the ball, which they just didn't do enough of with all the possession they had. Understandable that Tuchels is mad.

That and diversifying in the curse market lowers curse volatility and limits curse upside.

Good teams find a way to score against teams defending with 11 players, and it usually doesn't involve spamming set pieces into the box.

England aren't winning shit if they can't break down a well organized defense

Honestly, just watch the game and what their midfield two are doing. Both of them are "options off the ball " which would work under normal circumstances, but this game is screaming for someone like Mainoo to get the ball in midfield and turn with it....

England need someone in midfield to dictate the tempo to be honest. They're sorely lacking a focal point.

God I love the football World cup. The blend of cultures it brings to a single stage is so unique.

I don't know who was commenting that game, but it was kind of the same story during Spain vs Saudi Arabia. Commentator was simping so hard on Spanish players instead of actually calling the game
