They were poor 1st half. Looked like 4-2-3-1. That's bad against Malta ranked 10milion in the world. I'm sure reds woulda beat them. They didn't decide to shoot from any range til late in the game. And Southgate is a negative manager
Let's not lose sight of the fact that some of Malta's team have played in Leagues in England, namely the Isthmian League and the National League.! Their star man might be still playing over here, but on what he was being paid, he couldn't afford any accommodation so he left. Shudder to think what Germany, Spain or Italy will do to us if we meet them in the World Cup.
Yes exactly, let's not forget we twotted them 0-4 and we would all have taken a 3 goal win at least, wouldn't we ?. I love my country as well as my club and I want to see us do well. For me this result at least tonight, is acceptable.
yes first half was worst I'd seen us for a long time. No one really running at the defence or causing problems for Malta. Logically you would think 4-2-4 in these games but I suppose he's trying to implement his tactics.
