We’ve had three match threads from a Southgate fan and three terrible England performances so surely it’s time to have one from a Southgate critic?
Walker switched to LB, TAA in at right back, Bellingham dropped back next to Rice, Foden central, Gordon on the left and Palmer on the right. Come on Gareth: you can do it! [Post edited 27 Jun 15:28]

Well whatever football gods were on our side we used them all
Not great but if ever there was a win ugly.... that was it
Now he has had another chance will Southgate finally do something about this side
Biggest issue we have is Guéhi and who replaces him.... he was MOTM for me
Surely Konsa.....
We live to fight another day.... | | | |

He did, but his failure to close down attacking players in the last few mins was really winding me up. |  |

Yes he was a beast. |  |

Can’t agree with this. A World Cup semi final, Euro’s Final. Something hasn’t been right since the Iceland game.
Gareth needs to twist big time and someone in the squad needs to go all Ronaldo and bollock his teammates and drag them through this second half. |
I don't think the other teams are as good as the German, French and Italian teams of old either. |  |

70% possession with two shots on target sums it up pretty well doesn’t it. |  | | |

That was complete dog sh*t. Limped over the line - credit to Bellingham. Can’t stand that ‘sweet Caroline’ awful. We really didn’t deserve that. |  | | |

Nice little cameo from Eze. Good to hear the commentators praising the way he “glides around players” |  |

Southgate lucked out there big time.
Expect an unchanged team for the quarter final of course apart from replacing Guehi. | | | |

We did deserve it, we scored more goals than they did and they were good goals, not flukes. There's no bonus for scoring early or first.
Not that I'm arguing it wasn't another rank performance. Another one like that and Switzerland will win as easily as they beat Italy. | |

the interesting bit for me was during the half time in extra time, Southgate was like a spare part. He tried to gee up a few players and they all, without exception, turned their backs on him. |  |

How many on here were praying that blast from Eze in the lead up to the winning goal ripped into the roof of the net and he became a world wide star .
I thought he was excellent but playing at right back protecting a lead FFS that was nuts. To his credit he was covering that back post well and might have actually diverted it wide but it was a goal kick.
Palmer was good also and Toney made a huge impact but I would have put on Ollie Watkins myself to be honest.
Slovakia fell into the trap of sitting deep and panic clearences and they paid the price but it took a world class strike to deny them and HK did the rest.
Like I suspected they are dangerous now this will be the spark for sure |  | | |

That England game was mentalist.
I reckon that last gasp turnaround is going to catapult them to the semi-finals.
If you can't be good, be lucky. |  |

Toney looks good though, doesn't he. He's a smart footballer. I like him. And Southgate is definitely lucky. Finding his best team out as he stumbles along and just about keeping his balance. It's a tightrope act. Gareth Blondini. | |

He was playing Left Wing Back as I think Gareth went to a 5-3-2 of sorts
I was shocked how poor we were for the 90 odd minutes. No coincidence that when we took Foden off we looked far better. I was impressed with all the subs when they came on, but so annoying that he took so long to bring them on
And that ref was rotten to the core as well.
As we know, true champions scrap a win, well I think we used all our get out of jail free cards tonight and we will be mullered by the swiss if we play that same team | | | |

Tonie made a huge difference. He's just so calm and has real game intelligence. We looked so much better with him and Kane up top. | |

That ref was shocking (for both teams).
Not condoning it, but I can see why that club owner in Turkey attacked him |  |
