England v Switzerland Quarter Final match thread 23:58 - Jun 30 with 19865 views | Ned_Kennedys | Following our rousing success this evening it’s my pleasure to start the next match thread again as we stumble towards Euro success. Foden and Saka out, Eze and Palmer in. Centre midfield sorted after Mainoo’s decent performance. Not sure about LB: stick with Trippier I guess? | ![](/images/avatars/24226.gif) | | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

No shots on target and nothing at all on the left. Again. | ![](/images/avatars/24226.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
England v Switzerland Quarter Final match thread on 17:50 - Jul 6 with 1256 views | paulparker | What is the point of Trippier on the left ? You may as well stick a scarecrow out there | ![](/images/avatars/8151.gif) |
| And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot
That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles

Very true. But Gloucs nailed it that it's solid but uninspiring. But it is solid. With more people looking comfortable in their roles. I didn't think that was true until today. The right sub(s) could open this up now. | ![](/images/avatars/1570.gif) |

England v Switzerland Quarter Final match thread on 17:56 - Jul 6 with 1100 views | Wilkinswatercarrier | Much better today. Swiss sticking everyone behind the ball, England look in control. Foden so much better playing central. Shame Southgate decided not to take a fit left back, madness. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
England v Switzerland Quarter Final match thread on 17:56 - Jul 6 with 1093 views | hubble | I could not fcking believe it when I saw that Trippier was playing, on the left, again. Unfckingbelievable. Gordon and Watkins second half and we win this. But no doubt Shitgate will stick with this until we either concede or someone is knackered. We've got world class players and a conference league manager. [Post edited 6 Jul 17:57]

England a lot better but a bit dull to watch in fairness. Love to know what Pickfords trying to achieve with those long balls. Achieved nothing . | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

IIRC we were playing Hudds away and we had a corner and Macca told Dichio to get out of the way and scored a header for us. Foot proper off the gas this half. If we had played like this in the first half, the knives would be out for Gareth. | ![](/images/avatars/1664.gif) |

England v Switzerland Quarter Final match thread on 18:29 - Jul 6 with 803 views | LimehouseR | Seriously I have tried really hard to be patient and excepting that international football is a lot more tetchy and more at risk per game but I'm so bored of this now. All those talented players and we can barely have a shot let alone score a goal. Just gamble and try some quicker and more forward passes. If you lose the ball in their third then so what, they haven't looked amazing going forward either. Really want to get behind the team but it is so dull and uninspiring. | ![](/images/avatars/1378.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Thanks for that. Agreed about this half. No pace again. And there's the goal. And here come the subs. | ![](/images/avatars/1570.gif) |
