Wayne Rooney fears Gareth Southgate’s decision to confess the decision to deploy Trent Alexander-Arnold in midfield as an ‘experiment’ will come back to haunt the England manager. The Three Lions have one foot in the last 16, but the nature of Thursday’s performance against Denmark has sparked serious concern. After somewhat fortuitously taking the lead through Harry Kane, England retreated into their collective shell, as they had done in their Group C opener against Serbia,…
Gareth Southgate has suggested his England side are not fit enough to press the opposition effectively following their uninspiring start to Euro 2024. The Three Lions picked up a 1-0 win over Serbia in their Group C opener last Sunday, taking the lead through Jude Bellingham before wilting in the second-half. Harry Kane gave them an early lead against Denmark on Thursday but what followed was an alarmingly passive performance marred by careless passing, an…
Gareth Southgate finds himself under mounting pressure as England prepare for their final group match of Euro 2024 against Slovenia on Tuesday. The Three Lions limped to a dismal draw against Denmark in Frankfurt on Thursday evening in a performance devoid of any intensity, with their inability to retain possession a huge concern even at this early stage of the competition. The draw saw England miss the chance to seal qualification for the knockout stages…
Czech Republic and Turkey have experienced mixed starts to their Euro 2024 campaigns. The Czechs let slip a 1-0 lead over Portugal to succumb to a 2-1 defeat in the dying embers of the match. Turkey, meanwhile, prevailed with a 3-1 win in a dramatic encounter with Georgia in Dortmund which is widely being viewed as the game of the tournament so far. But amid the drama, some fans watching on TV back home would…
Stuart Pearce fears Gareth Southgate’s decision to gamble on the fitness of Luke Shaw is likely to end in ‘disaster’. The Manchester United left-back hasn’t played a single minute of competitive football since February but still made England’s 26-man Euro 2024 squad. Shaw appears unlikely to play until the quarter-final stage, at the earliest, however, and continues to train separately to the rest of the squad in an attempt to speed up his rehabilitation. With…
Gareth Southgate’s comments regarding Kalvin Phillips would have been ‘insulting’ to his England squad, Gary Lineker believes. The Three Lions are still reeling from their woeful 1-1 draw with Denmark in their second match of Euro 2024. Though England’s place in the knockouts is all but confirmed, their performances against Denmark and Serbia are extremely concerning. Midfield has been a problem area, with the pairing of Declan Rice and Trent Alexander-Arnold not working, the former…
Wayne Rooney fears England manager Gareth Southgate is set to make a mistake by dropping Arsenal star Bukayo Saka at Euro 2024. Southgate is expected to make changes for England’s final group game against Slovenia on Tuesday night after two underwhelming performances against Serbia and Denmark. While Saka has been one of England’s better players in Germany, creating the assist for Jude Bellingham’s early opener against Serbia, he could be sacrificed as Southgate looks for…
Gary Neville predicts two changes Southgate will make for England’s next game | Football Gary Neville had predicted England manager Gareth Southgate will make two changes to his starting XI for Tuesday’s Euro 2024 clash against Slovenia. The Three Lions head into their final Group C fixture with one foot already in the knockout phase and currently sit top of the section on four points. Despite that commanding position, England’s performances against Serbia and Denmark…
Thibaut Courtois will be watching Belgium’s second Euro 2024 group game vs Romania at home like the rest of us today, having not been named in Belgium’s squad for the tournament. This is despite the fact that Courtois is fit to play, having started in goal for Real Madrid for the Champions League final win over Borussia Dortmund earlier this month. Courtois has endured a hugely frustrating 2023/24 campaign, tearing the ACL in his left…
Cristiano Ronaldo saw the funny side as he posed for a selfie with a young pitch invader during Portugal’s Euro 2024 clash against Turkey. The former Manchester United and Real Madrid star had jus played a key role in creating Portugal’s third goal of a one-sided contest for Bruno Fernandes. In the process, Ronaldo reached yet another personal milestone, with that assist representing his seventh in European Championships, one more than the previous joint record…
Benjamin Sesko says he was ‘happy’ to have had transfer interest in him from the likes of Arsenal and Chelsea. The striker, currently starring for Slovenia at Euro 2024, had emerged as a top summer target for several clubs including London rivals Arsenal and Chelsea as well as Manchester United. But in a surprising move, Sesko decided to pen a new contract with RB Leipzig, though it does contain a gentleman’s agreement over a future…
Portugal boss Robert Martinez expressed concerns about the safety of his players after several fans got onto the pitch to seek a selfie with Cristiano Ronaldo during and immediately after Portugal’s 3-0 win over Turkey in Dortmund on Saturday. Portugal captain Ronaldo posed for a selfie with a young boy with around 20 minutes left to play, but five others later made it on to the pitch in an apparent attempt to take a picture…
Ashley Cole has urged Gareth Southgate to ‘rest’ Bukayo Saka and afford Phil Foden the chance to thrive in his best position in England’s upcoming Euro 2024 game against Slovenia. Despite two indifferent displays against Denmark and Serbia, the Three Lions are virtually assured of a place in the last 16 having collected four points from two games. England looked disjointed against the Danes in midweek, however, and Southgate is facing calls to change his…
Jarrod Bowen laughed off Gary Lineker’s coarse four-letter description of England’s performance against Denmark as the optimistic forward urged fans to stick with the stuttering side. Having kicked off Euro 2024 with a hard-fought 1-0 win against Serbia, a disjointed display in Thursday’s 1-1 draw with Denmark raised alarm and heaped pressure on the team. Fans booed at the final whistle in Frankfurt and pundits piled in on Gareth Southgate’s men, including former England striker…
England midfielder Adam Wharton has revealed what Prince William told the dejected Three Lions in the dressing room after their disappointing draw with Denmark. After labouring to a 1-0 win over Serbia in their Euros opener, England were expected to produce an improved and more coherent performance against the Danes. But England continued to underwhelm on Thursday night, drawing 1-1 in a display that suggests their tag as Euro 2024 favourites is misguided. England took…

Match Review: Denmark 1-1 England – ‘Wasteful England lacked energy’ England manager Gareth Southgate acknowledged that his team is “falling short” after a 1-1 draw against Denmark in their Euro 2024 match last night. Despite an early goal from Harry Kane, Denmark quickly equalised, leaving England’s qualification for the knockout stages in question. UEFA EURO 2024: Match Recap The game started promisingly for England with Harry Kane scoring the opening goal at the 18-minute mark.…

Harry Kane made two excuses for England’s drab display against Denmark after the Three Lions were forced to settle for a 1-1 draw. Qualification for the next round as group winners looked to be on the cards when Kane prodded his team ahead in the 18th minute. The lead lasted only until 10 minutes before the break, however, when Morten Hjulmand powered home a long-range piledriver after Kane had needlessly conceded possession. A disappointing individual…
Gareth Southgate took Harry Kane off in England’s Euro 2024 clash with Denmark because his side ‘needed fresh’ legs with Trent Alexander-Arnold also hauled off during the dismal draw. Kane gave England the lead after 18 minutes in Frankfurt but Morten Hjulmand levelled 10 minutes before half-time with a wonderful strike from range. England wilted from that point, repeatedly giving the ball away across the park in a lethargic display where they missed the opportunity…
