When they beat Spain 3-2 in the same competition it was hailed as a huge result but now when they're losing in the competition it is just glorified friendlies.

[danielmason]

Souness's assertion that "the players aren't at it" because these games are just glorified friendlies falls down in any analysis due to the simple fact they are equally glorified friendlies for England's opponents.
If both sets of players are equally uninterested, yet England can't win a game or score a goal from open play, then something is obviously going very wrong within the England camp.

Southgate said he wouldn’t outstay his welcome. He’s already doing that

[boxmad]

As soon as Souness says 'let me give you an example', I know I'm about to nod off into a deep sleep.

Simon & Graeme going on about “The Media” supporting the team.
They are The Media 🤣

[stuartm]

English managers always seem to revert to the same trap. They get attached to players and club form goes out the window. Dropping high profile players becomes unthinkable and form is irrelevant.

Graeme saying we shouldn't be criticizing is hilarious to me, i meant it's him.

[ste]

I'm not sure what Graeme expects. We haven't scored from open play in over 7hrs and keep losing 😂 what does he expect the back pages to say? "unlucky lads, you'll get them next time"

[Thinpe]

Southgtes is a championship league level coach 😄

[dorkarama]

Southgate doesn't like creative players, or players being creative.

[BasedinReality]

I feel sorry for Simon having to share space with these two muppets.

"I am now fortunate that sadly I am in my 50s"
Stunning words

[PeacockRhino]

What do they want the fans to do? Shall we all say: “Southgate is the new Johan Cruyff. The football is absolutely amazing, total football and exciting. We’re scoring goals for fun and even though we’ve been relegated, I’m 100% certain we’re gonna win the World Cup with this master tactician”?

[de.seeker]

I'm at that point now that nothing Simon Jordan says can be wrong to me. Man is always on point

[ShaunLevett]

The reason a lot of English fans and media get on the team's back is they know how good they SHOULD be, but they constantly flatter to decieve. They let fans down. The Scottish, Northern Irish fans etc don't do this as much as they know they have very little quality and will more or less never win a tournement. You can't let fans down when you know you're dreadful. Quite a difference. The criticism is because the fans and media DO have belief in what this team can do given the right coaching. It's decades of frustration.

[Dalisu]

If I’m playing FIFA against my 14 year old son I’m making sure I’m winning that game 5-0 at least. You can’t claim it’s a friendly when the other team sends 4 goals past you and everyone should accept that.

[izcoqfz]

Watching England is like watching Forest under Chris Houghton and Warburton. Boring and safe but eventually the wheels come off and people get fed up of watching boring football. Results aren't everything, it's the performance. Football is entertainment at the end of the day

[vaannebilim]

This channel has proven that english media is insufferably cynical, they flop over if its not in the line of interests of england. Calling this a glorified friendly but when they beat spain it was like they won a world cup. Pathetic

[AJP]

Hard to fathom that a national team player would not be "at it" in front of 90, 000 fans at Wembley.

[johnbolton]

Good words from Souness. They are friendlies!! Get behind the boys! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
