Saka to left-back isn't a bad idea in the circumstances, but the circumstances are that the gimp took one left-back who hasn't played for months.
IT. IS. COMING. HOME.

Actually I think [insert team who won't win] could win it!
I'm a bore and want league football back
I'm even more of a bore and want to discuss TRANSFERS

At least Luke Shaw will be fighting fit for his beach holiday next week
Yeah, I'm alright with Saka at left back.
I'm not alright with watching us die of a short illness.
Ref zero fucks given about the man down.
Reminds of Into The Wild. Saka is the berries.Originally Posted by Lewis
Bellingham DIVED!!
I reckon he should bring Bellingham on. A player of his class will surely have an impact on this game.
Foden could shoot someone in the middle of Oxford Street and not get subbed off.
The good thing is that the coverage rolls straight into the Spain vs Georgia match, so we'll get a full hour of Neville pulling that serious forehead face he pulls.
Could have been a red for diving there for Jude.
He'd miss anyway.
I don't think he dived, he didn't even appeal and continued to try to play the ball. He just fell over.
Must have seen the ball crossed in by England about 40 times during this tournament and not a single one has looked like it had an even 1% chance of resulting in a goal.
Don't bottle it Slovakia ffs.
I think he probably realised mid fall. Have we really only made one injury enforced substitution?
If he could shoot on the pitch it would be appreciated.
Bellingham scored off a (deflected) cross mate.
England 0-1 down, 73rd minute.. and Southgate has made 1 sub, and not made any significant tactical change.
Getting ole'd by Slovakia.
That was forced as well. You have to wonder at this stage if he's actively trying to body bag us out of the tournament.
Bellingham red shortly.
Has Saka touched the ball since being shifted?
Kane
Kane, you absolute fuckwit.
Not sure the ref has it in him. He's happy just handing out first yellows.
STILL 0 shots on target.
He's provided all the liquidity in the market to get England to favourites.
The inquest into this should last weeks and no one should be left thinking that the expression 'tournament football' in response to cholera football is ever acceptable again.
And no changes. I really thought I'd hit rock bottom with England at various points over the last near 40 years, but seemingly not.
Does hitting the post count as a shot on target?
Nope.
Lee Dixon thought it did...
Only shots that required a save to not go in, I believe.
Slovakia did end up getting small nation syndrome after all. They've been lucky here.
We're not scoring.
Making a single enforced change/substitution by this point is literally watching half of the game pass you by. Is that even managing?
Most creative player in the league not named Kevin still sat on the bench too.
Our best player off again.
You couldn't write this.
He's taken the least famous midfielder off. Bingo.
He was on a yellow guys.
Got to ensure he doesn't get sent off and miss the next game.
This is the last time we’ll ever have to watch a Gareth Southgate managed England team, thank god. Let that soak in and take some solace from it.
I'm a twit
It really can't be overstated how bad both of our fullbacks have been.
I really didn't think Southgate could be this inflexible with his changes, properly outdoing himself.
Get Kane off. Fuck me.
We don't have a natural replacement for Harry Maguire.
Kane
He's got nothing in him.
Kane has been abysmal.
What am I watching?
It's like watching the first episode of Chernobyl.
Even the subs he has made have been nonsensical.
“Gareth Southgate is his own harshest critic”
I'm pretty sure this isn't true.
