Trippier was exactly the right shout, especially against a Germany side with two very good wing-backs in Gosens and Kimmich. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hogesar 9,673 Posted June 29, 2021 Southgate navigated a difficult fixture (with all the associated history and emotion) with a solid performance which restricted a decent side to minimal chances - completing it with a fairly comfortable 2-0 win and again, we are yet to concede a goal. I note the moaners on here were the same people creaming over France all tournament, as who we should aspire to play like. Would you rather be France right now? I said after the Scotland game there's always a ridiculous overreaction (no difference to Norwich losing a match last season on here, in all honesty). On top of all that its fantastic to see Sterling continuing to prove idiots that don't rate him as exactly that 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And although Grealish made a difference when he came on it was Sterling who was the difference between the two sides over the course of the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How many did you expect us to beat Germany by, and what do you think the score would have been had we replaced Trippier and Rice with Mount and Grealish? Come on Wacky, you know that is not how it works. We scored twice (the first goal after 75 minutes with our 1st shot of the 2nd half) and the 2nd scored after the game opened up a bit as Germany chased the game. We didn't concede any, but 'could' have done ( because our predominantly defensive set up came bl**dy close to letting them). I felt we were a level above Germany, but that did not come over, during that game I actually said (not on here) that I fancied a 2-0 win. I hoped it would be with a team and players that, moving forward could look to make a major impact on World football. Didn't feel that today. I'm not apologizing for wanting more from those very talented players. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Missed your sensible posts (pure coincidence that they tend to agree with my own on footballing matters). I do think Southgate introduced Grealish at the right - ish time too - we were starting to get a hold of the ball a bit better and Grealish is only effective when we have possession. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They'd be rightfully told to do one. We were right next to Brentford in the League. Germany are a few places below us in the rankings. Germany are a good team, but we are a level or two, above them, that is what I believe, and to cede to them, was a negative thing. Just because I have confidence in our team to do the business, is not a negative thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
