It is ‘unrealistic’ to expect Kobbie Mainoo to turn around England’s woeful Euro 2024 campaign, Jamie Carragher has warned. England have qualified for the knockout stage as Group C winners but only after another lacklustre performance in the goalless draw with Slovenia on Tuesday night. Despite fierce criticism, Gareth Southgate would make just one change to his starting XI for the match – replacing Trent Alexander-Arnold with Conor Gallagher. While dropping the Liverpool star after his failed experiment to convert from right-back to midfielder was welcomed, there was apprehension over whether Chelsea’s Gallagher would bring much-needed stability and control to…

William Saliba was left stranded on his own at Euro 2024 on Tuesday when the France team bus abandoned the Arsenal star at the Westfalenstadion. Arsenal defender Saliba has had to bide his time to break into the France XI under boss Didier Deschamps, who has historically favoured Ibrahima Konate instead. Deschamps made a switch this summer, though, pairing Saliba with Dayot Upamecano in central defence for France’s first three games at Euro 2024. Les Bleus finished second in Group D, which was confirmed after their 1-1 draw against Poland at Borussia Dortmund’s Signal Iduna Park on Tuesday night. There…

Gareth Southgate’s side delivered another uninspiring performance in their final group game against Slovenia on Tuesday night but a goalless draw was enough to secure top spot in Group C. The result means England will play their last-16 tie on Sunday, June 30, at 5pm in Gelsenkirchen, the venue for their opening 1-0 win over Serbia. At…

While England’s goalless draw with Slovenia at Euro 2024 was a dire affair for most, there was a heartwarming story at the centre of it. Slovenia icon Josip Ilicic came on in the 75th minute for Benjamin Sesko to help his side secure a point against the Three Lions. The result means that they finish third in Group C, enough to guarantee a spot in the last-16 where they could face Portugal. But for Ilicic, this game meant more given that the attacker nearly walked away from football twice over the last four years due to mental health struggles. The…

Phil Foden has temporarily left England’s Euro 2024 training camp to return home for the birth of his third child. The Manchester City midfielder has started all three of England’s games so far in Germany, including last night’s 0-0 draw against Slovenia.

Gareth Southgate and England’s senior players have a responsibility to help Jude Bellingham after his ‘inexperienced’ displays at Euro 2024. That is the opinion of Rio Ferdinand, who was reacting to the Three Lions’ latest underwhelming performance in the goalless draw with Slovenia. Many of England’s stars have been criticised for their efforts at the tournament so far, with star player and golden boy Bellingham starting to feel the heat despite an impressive start. He scored the winner and was named player of the match in the 1-0 victory over Serbia but was completely ineffective in the draws with Denmark…

Kevin de Bruyne furiously ordered his Belgium team to leave the pitch after they were booed by their own fans following their goalless draw with Ukraine at Euro 2024. Belgium booked their place in the last 16 of the competition on Wednesday night but it came after another very underwhelming performance on the final night of Group E action. All four teams finished on four points with Romania topping the group with Belgium progressing as runners up – feeding them into a knockout tie against France on Monday. Like England, Belgium have flattered to deceive in Germany, winning just one…
