Welcome to The Athletic FC’s YouTube channel, where best-in-class journalism meets video.
England needed a last-minute equaliser from Jude Bellingham to avoid defeat to Slovakia at Euro 2024. So, can Gareth Southgate rely on individual moments of quality going forward? Or is this strategy too risky?
Jon Mackenzie takes a look…🧠

“England fans won’t care […] as long as they’re still in the tournament.” I’m not sure if you’ve met England fans…
How is Austria doing it? It's clear Phil Foden is not working on the left wing. Saka and Cole palmer did more in 5 mins than he did all tourney
There are three types of a win: the deserved win, the dirty win and the English win 😅
If Jude actually continues this for 7 years he might have a genuine say to top 10 clutch players of all time
Doesn’t matter if he goes on to win the Euros, there should be 0 possibilities of him staying on after that disasterclass. Fraud didn’t even make any tactical substitutions until it was far too late. Whatever about setting and coaching repeatable attack patterns and press triggers, sure that’s not absolutely necessary to win internationally when your team is so talented but the moron can’t even get get the starting team right. Foden had absolutely no business starting after his group stage performances never mind the fact he had to go home in between. And chasing a game and taking off Mainoo for Eze??? The guys not just the worst England coach of all time, I think there’s a credible argument to be made he is flat out the worst coach of all time in terms of the length of time he’s served at an in demand job.
Southgate has zero tactic. Stop making southgate a good manager. England boring as hell..
The constant hand gestures are freaking me out
Xhaka masterclass incoming
Just a little late😂😂
Imagine if England had Germany’s bracket.
Only a little bit late
Moments fc
Let’s be honest that over head kick was crazy 💀
No it’s not difficult look at Spain, Germany etc Southgate is just crap that wouldn’t be worth flushing
in short no
in long nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
They were atrocious. Either Southgate is an idiot or the players are totally disillusioned with his tactics and don't respect him. Either way he should be replaced, must be embarrassing for the team lmao
Individual brilliance can only take you so far….
Southgate and strategy should be forbidden to be used in the same sentence.
I comment my reserve… that was absolutely unacceptable from a country like England
Game plans go out the window when they get the first goal. England kept at it, and the cream rose to the top. Look at it this way. The English fans at the game had a lot of fun celebrating. What was it like in 'old blighty'?
Get rid of Kane + Bellingham = 0 goals total
even if they are working, it's anything but convincing.
that's where the loudest shout from.
If England is not doing anything surpring before next match, they are not going past that Swiss side
If England win against Switzerland, it'll be the upset of the tournament, that's how f*cking bad they have been. They honestly didn't deserve to get out of the group.
Lions being led by a sheep
Its like the difference between the teacher who says that he wants his students to be independent and teaches them nothing and that teacher that actually makes students independent by providing them the tools to do so
Tactics?
i hope we consider the fact that Bayern actively wants to sell De Ligt amd dont pay too much. 40 mil should be enough if we dont pay the united tax
i dont understand how you can play that bad with this players.
I still can't comprehend how Trippier has created twice as much from live play passes as Foden has even though he mostly just sits behind 😂 even Walker has created 30% more. And he couldn't beat a 37 year old right back once in the last game. Honestly, Southgate should be deported if he doesn't start Gordon on the left against Switzerland.
Btw i love your sweatshirt
England has too many superstars on their team to be depending on moments
That’s a very generous way of saying there are no tactics.
England had great possession. Just crap at creating and converting chances
Trust me, we do care when it was scored
If you have insomnia then you should watch England play, works like a cure to me.
I will gladly play ball with the title: NO.
England aren't a possession based side when we carry the ball we should always look to attack with threat instead of holding the ball and wait for an opening.
Sack Southgate! Only chance to be successful!
England will coming home and that's deserved
Well it worked again
Won that 50 50 pen toss up cause akanji choked. I might be a little dutch biased but i srsly favor us over england 60/40, we do have that spirit that england lacks under southgate
Vibes go brrrrrr
