So has she actually published her story? I'm being a bit thick here, possibly.

Mere twitle-tatter at the moment it appears… if she goes official we’ll know all about it.

I doubt we`ll do much playing inside either. #26%possession.

Coufal all over the shop in the Czech game, and at fault for their winner, doesn’t bode well! Soucek took a knock but seemed ok.

Put the pass in for the Czech goal though.

Shame about the result.

I am not sure that really compensates for all the errors in the game he got away with it a lot until the goal, he looked well off the pace, maybe a long premier league campaign on his legs who knows.

On the other hand he put in a couple of quality crosses.
Soucek shaking hands with Ronaldo at the start was the closest he got to a Portuguese player all afternoon.

I appreciate the cross he put in and the slide pass for the goal, but fundamentally this season we need to stop goals going in our end as a top priority, and at the back, he was all over the shop out of position, giving it away and on his arse a number of times, I think his best is well behind him.

I love the guy for his effort dont get me wrong.

I wonder what the expectation is at the club in terms of Johnson, they are keen to get him to re sign, and maybe a new manager can get him back on track in the full back position?

Haven't heard anything about BJ for a while - assume that he's considering options. His contract expires at the end of the month.

He could be a good intermediate option, provide something at RB whilst we fix the centre and LB positions (I read some rumours about Emerson wanting to go back to Italy).

Trott is off to Denmark permanently by the looks of it.

England under Southgate.

WH under Moyes.

The England thread is currently an exact copy of this one but Hey, be careful what you wish for.

Bloke on England thread:

The only tactic seems to be if we score a goal then sit back as the opposition will come onto us, soak up pressure then try and nick a second on the counter.

Moyes should put in a claim against Southgate for breach of copyright.

Slowly but surely he’s ruining a 105 million pound player. Gone from a decent switch passer and ball carrier to a 3 yard sideways and backwards nothing player. The worst I’ve ever seen him on the ball tonight,didn’t help Bellingham gave him a couple of suicide ones to collect though.

Awful isn`t it. He looked angry, lost and defeated.

How the fk do we turn up at major tournaments with the manager not knowing his best side and "experimenting" with players out of position?

If you`re going to have pointless "warm up" matches immediately prior to the tournament put your best side on the pitch so they can gel and work stuff out for themselves.

Shambles.

Southgate's taken England to the semi-finals of a World Cup and the finals of Euro 2020. Let's face it England are hitting above their weight but the fans just don't appreciate him, I just don't know what they expect. Be careful what they wish for etc. etc.

Maybe Moyes could take over managing England?
