Weird negativity for a game that was legitimately meaningless. There’s been friendlies with more on the line
Just watched the extended highlights back and I have one question, ignoring the farcical refereeing:
Why—in the name of all that is good and right in the world—does Southgate continue to select Maguire?
Becoz he’s been good for united lol? One mistake doesn’t erase that idiot
Username checks out.
I would be laughing right now, but north macedonia ate known giant killers at this point. 3rd massive upset in a few years (i realize this is a draw but still a david goliath story)
What does Southgate offer that a national league manager doesn’t? There is literally nothing unique or special about him. Wearing a waistcoat made him look smart and he had a plan, but it was just lipstick on a donkey. Such a stale game with no attacking plan or intent. Just moving the ball up the field and hoping someone is open doesn’t work lmao
He should be the AM, never the manager. He’s done an amazing job of gelling the team, and making them actually play together, sort out some rivalry and stop the clique bs from old managers. But one the whistle blows and the game is on, he needs to sit down and stfu as tactically the mans a menace… Great for anyone with insomnia but horrible to the rest of us with hope of winning a tournament.
Big for Macedonians
Youd think england played with a b team looking at the score but it was actually a huge upset…
I think one random english player makes more than the whole north macedonia squad together lol
