Jordan Pickford is absolutely shocking. Not sure what else to say on that, it's become a common saying.

l quite agree although Harry Maguire ain't far behind him IMO.

80 million quid for a standout defender in an above average team at Leicester. You'll find that can end up translating to an average or above average player at a world class team. £80 million is world class money and he's so far from it.

Teams came close to taking Lascelles off us for £40 million, Longstaff for £50m. You wouldn't pay that for the pair of them combined right now.

Very poor England performance. Undoubtedly the sending off and the 'penalty' changed how England played. Referee was poor in my opinion mind.

Just a quick snippet for my Anti-Southgate agenda (Yep I still think he's absolutely awful)

Gareth Southgate is now the second worst England Manager statistically in the past 20 years. Bumping Roy Hodgson up after tonights dismal display. Hodgson having played 10 more games too before accumulating that many losses.

The worst ironically being his old gaffer, Schteve

Fabio Capello is miles ahead of anyone else at the top and Sven in second. Says a lot about the English manager rhetoric doesn't it.

Also to add on to my frustration. He rolls through interviews like Steve Bruce. I absolutely don't need more of that.

Wenger in

I disagree with you about Southgate entirely. I think he`s a good coach/manager,it`s the players who are letting him down. These past few weeks have highlighted this.

We did not exactly have our strongest 11 last night but what perturbs me more is the lack of professional discipline from footballers when they are not playing football.

Yes it is a concern and their clubs should be getting a grip of them.

Exactly.

Both maguire and james got sent off for on field indiscipline.

maguire, pickford, rashford, walker and kane should never have been on the pitch.

Southgate is a dinosaur picking his favourites for competitive games rather than in form players.

Probably the funniest moment was Hojbjerg clattering into kane's knee.

Tammy Abraham, Jadon Sancho, Ben Chilwell, Mason Greenwood and Phil Foden were undisciplined in off the field activilties.

You suggest Julian that you are not a lover of Spurs.

Nothing to do with my opinion of spurs.

I was merely wondering what mourinho would be making of it

Answers on a postcard for this one.

Pickford is a complete thug and a full time knob.

How he is still on the pitch is a mystery.

Apparently because there was a offside given by VAR it makes whatever Pickford did irrelevant.

Staggering l know given his brutal foul on VVD.

To me it was a straight red and a penalty.
