Well done England, you did us proud even though fell short again, it’s ok.

I honestly do not know why they pay the managers so much money??? Thomas Tuchel’s tactics were terrible. Awful. Dreadful!!
Football is definitely not engineering or medicine or law! And it certainly ain’t rocket science either! When you manage to score a goal via the only real chance we had all game, what you do, is bring more strikers or midfield players on, to choke the game in the middle and not at the back! Instead, he sets them defending!!! Against Argentina! Fernandez who scored their equaliser scores similar goals for fun at Chelsea! It’s like handing him a penalty! And he gave England and the manager ample warning by striking 3 shots from that same position, one coming real close. At that point, you don’t add defenders, as it takes your line too deep! You put on strikers or midfielders! And after Argentina scored, he went to 5 defenders!!!! Complete madness!

England was better off throwing everything at it, to try to get a second goal, to go 2 nil up, even if it leads to us conceding an equaliser. Those were the odds and we could have got lucky. Instead, we handed it to them on a plate, but trying to defend! With no outlet, no way of getting out of our back line!

It was a tactical mess!!!

After we scored, Tuchel should have asked the players to defend for 5 minutes, which they did, even though Argentina immediately missed a couple of chances. after those 5 minutes, he should have brought on Rashford, Saka and Toney, and really taken the game to Argentina! Instead, he took our scorer off and brought on 2 defenders, which gave Argentina the hope they needed to come at us, knowing they don’t need to keep any players at their back, as England wasn’t going to trouble them with our defenders!!!

Shocking tactics (or lack of!) from Tuchel! Awful!
