- England surged to a dramatic comeback win against Italy this week inspired, once again, by the genius of Real Madrid's Jude Bellingham. But did this game finally prove that Gareth Southgate has a system that can lead England to European glory?

Watching the footage after full time, it was great to see him coming off the bench at full time to individually embrace and congratulate his teammates. 100% should be the next captain and can be for years to come
When Real Madrid sign you at 19 years old you know you're in the top 0.01% of all footballers on earth right now. This guy is simply unstoppable. He does whatever he wants.
There are so many players that 0.01% isn't even that good
Bruh 😂 you should have watched the press conference Florentino Perez was holding onto Jude's arm for dear life you could tell he was so excited they were able to get their hands on Jude
not right now, in football history actually
Signed as important player as well 👍
Lol, Brahim Diaz, Luka jovic etc ???
I've been following England since Euro 96 when I was 4 years old. It was the first tournament I was alive to watch. I learned long ago to expect nothing from England, but now we're decent again I am hopeful, but still expect nothing. It's better this way, it doesn't hurt so much when the inevitable happens. But now, I want us to win so badly not for patriotism or pride, just so we can rub it in the rest of the worlds face and annoy the hell out of them like they annoy us.
My first tournament was Mexico 70 fella when I was 4 years young lol 😂 😂 same sentiments lol 😂 😂
Honestly England is kinda like one of those unexplained mysteries 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I mean I agree on paper it looks excellent they have some of the best players in the world but like Brazil they can't seem to get it together I think the difference this time around is Jude I say that because in addition to being the best footballer in the world right now he's a natural born leader just watch him on the Real Madrid squad he knows how to rally the team build them up etc get them in the right mentality so I hope this time y'all can just get it done lol
The crazy thing is that 20 year old shouldn't be playing with that level of maturity!
There's an additional attribute here that can help cover the gaps when we're playing Bellingham higher to support Kane. When Luke shaw is back there's the perfect setup to play between the standard 4-3-3 and a 3-4-3 with either John Stones stepping into a 6 role or Luke Shaw inverting when we're going forward. Kalvin Philips isnt the answer alongside Rice though. Id be using TAA to help us move forward in those transitional moments. Honestly, england have never had the ability to be this tactically flexible and fluid. Southgate just has to take advantage of all the options
6:02 actually made me gasp. The touch was incredible.
Bellingham is awesome but getting past France and Portugal to win the Euros is a tough ask with England's defence
Unless Klopp and Pochettino can get the best out of Quansah and Colwill in less than a year now. And these are very exciting young modern defender
@@ronnyron4681 They work for their clubs. Not for the nation.
Agree with you I can see this going either way France is gonna be really hard to beat
We can not keep
Making this mistake of focusing on one player. Gascoigne, Beckham, rooney .We have as England keep putting our faith in the one superstar and keep forgetting it’s a team game. It frustrates me like hell. We hold it up and then sit and gasp at every tackle in case they get injured. Matches are won by teams and how teams are set up far more than individuals
Except we have kane, rashford, saka, Shaw, foden, rice.
This depth and offensive power is astounding. Bellingham is just the cherry on the cake.
We keep making the mistake of not focusing on one player enough.
Gazza is truly one of England's greatest but his best achievement is an FA cup. He can't carry this whole nation.
Beckham was a crosser with no target men. Even playing him with Crouch more would've been more fruitful. Shearer retired too quickly...
Rooney -just like owen, was classic "England's number 10" mistake. We don't give number 10 to AMF like other countries, we give it to forwards then play some hopeful long kicks.
Just like in golden generation when we played lampard and gerrard together, hoping that they'll just telepathically know where each other's at.
Clubs that're successful build their teams around 1 or 2 players and facilitate that secret weapon. Remember when huge players like neymar, suarez, bale, or benzema, are just supporting actors to facilitate messi and ronaldo.
That's why although every champion teams are great, it's the maradonas and peles and zidanes who won world cups.
Unless you're germany, we can't just hope to have 12 great players who works perfectly like a gear in a machine. Just need 1 or 2 to take the lead and carry our squad to the final, screaming and kicking.
Now it's time for bellingham.
Exactly. He’s selling it to England fans who have only watched England since Southgate has become manager. Those of us who have watched England play for way longer - I have since 1986, know there have seen too many false dawns and focusing on one player is just BS and has been done before. England have produced many great players who were going to make the difference - Robson, Gasgoigne, Scholes, Gerrard, Beckham, Owen, Rooney. Only for them to get injured or not click, come into form at the right time.
It’s a team game and there are clear weaknesses even in this England team that Southgate won’t or can’t address - namely mobility and pace in the centre of defence and a pass master as one of the pivots in midfield.
Jude Bellingham was absolutely brilliant last night.
exactly what he does at madrid
Rice and Bellingham in midfield is insane
England have never had a player like Jude before...if you crossed patrick veira and zidane you'd get Jude Bellingham...whatever real Madrid are paying him he's well worth it
Not just the Euros but the World Cup as well. Harry Kane will also contribute and Saka
Back in the day that was called...... wait for it, "A free role'
I agree we have a great team and could go all the way with Bellingham in beast mode as he can provide that spark and garner belief within the team that you need in a tournament setting.
Watching last night I felt Phillips looked like a weak link and his touch was a bit heavy when operating in tight areas. Southgate replaced him with Henderson but what do you think about Arnold here? His passing and shooting from deep could be lethal, he just might need to be a bit more steely in defence to take his place. I always feel Southgate errs on the defensive side when choosing his lineup.
I can genuinely see Jude Bellingham lifting the World Cup as England Captain.
oh give it a rest
Lmao man has a Spurs logo for a profile pic, he lives on hopes and dreams :P
Let this man dream 🙌
I won't be surprised if that does happen, on paper England has the best team in the world along with France.
That wouldn't surprise me...whether it's with Southgate I don't know...Southgate must win the euro's if he wants another crack at the wc ...I think even he knows this
People who criticise Southgate fundamentally don’t understand what’s important for managing at *international* level, and why it’s completely different to club level.
The hard problem is fostering a sense of team solidarity and tactical consistency with the very limited time available to work with inconsistently available players. Southgate does that better than any England manager in my lifetime.
It’s why Capello was a great club manager but an appalling international manager.
Perfectly put, it is essential that Southgate's successor can maintain the excellent team culture he has integrated, or England will go backwards, regardless of whether the new manager is established or not, or if he wants to play offensive or pragmatic football.
The volume of people who think it's as simple as hiring someone like Potter, fielding an all-star XI like in the Eriksson days and playing flatout Pepball like City would etc. absolutely infuriates me
Are you going to completely ignore the tactical ineptitude against Croatia/Italy/France (the first good teams we played in each tournament)
Each of these games he made the wrong subs way too late, and got out manoeuvred by superior coaches - yes the atmosphere he’s fostered is great, but we need someone to build on that
And for this reason if Southgate fails to win the euro's I would like mourinho to replace him ...he gets England he understands us and the media love him not to mention he's tactically excellent
Disinegnuous to act like it's the only problem. Absolutely no use having a squad unified and behind a vision that is tactically inferior and won't actually go the distance.
@@Pokjhbvcf you need to get more specific: can’t just lump all 3 games together and assert in each game England lost for the same reasons.
Nothing wrong with Southgate’s subs against France except that they came too late and France went on to score against run of play.
Italy were best team in euro 20, England were 2nd best. The math adds up.
No one thought England would get to semi in Russia let alone be able to argue about went wrong. The 2018 team were least experienced in caps, 2nd youngest average age with Deplh, Dier, Loftus-Cheeks on the bench. Which one of them was the killer player England needed to overcome Croatia?
Yeah England are in a great situation at the moment. They have the 2nd best striker in world football as the captain (Kane), they have a 22yr old top 3 RW in the world in Saka, they have a world class top 5 CB in John Stones, a world class top 3 DM in Rice, what looks like the best midfielder in the world at the moment in Jude and on top of all that they have 5 of the top 10 RBs in the world at their disposal in Trippier, Walker, TAA, Reece James and Ben White.
Just unbelievably stacked. France are also looking stacked with Mbappe, Greizmann and co. A France vs England blockbuster Euros final would be great next summer.
Too much insight they can't handle it ahahaha love it mate
he is playing exactly like how he plays at madrid.. geting high droping deep running behind freedom to float.. he is not just playing high at madrid
There’s a lot of talk of TAA taking the Kalvin Phillips role but why not Gallagher? He’s got insane work rate and is already used as someone who plays flexibly around far more technical players at Chelsea. He’s improved and added goals, assists, key passes etc to his game - I’d have thought it would at least be worth a trial as Phillips was good but definitely rusty and TAA would be playing out of his usual position in that role
I do feel like Gareth Southgate has always been the right manager. I think he’s seriously underrated as the MNT coach. He’s so stable, manages the politics of the dressing room and the media expertly and has the players buying into his ideas. Not just tactically, but off the pitch.
The difference between the vibe and the determination of this England side and those of the past is so evident. One of, if not the greatest England side ever, and a trophy in 2024 would be the perfect closure to this current England setup. (Although those wishing for change don’t ever seem to have an actual succession plan.)
Agree with the team ethos, but when you say ‘buy into his tactics’ what on earth are they? 7 defenders?
the main problem people have with southgate is him still calling up maguire and putting him in a starting 11 when we clearly see there are better defenders like dunk, colwill, tomori etc...
@@Pokjhbvcf I’m not sure until recently we really had the consistent ability to push teams by going through gears. We have always been heavily reliant on Kane off output and Sterling for making something happen.
Could any of the players against Italy have made a difference in years gone? Saka was too young, Rashford only recently has found consistent form, Bellingham this year is hitting different, but was probably in need of more experience. Rice has only really started finding his actual position because he’s not needed everywhere by his club anymore. Foden is growing into his body more and making better decisions.
Sure, in hindsight it’s easy to say ‘we should always have played like we did against Italy’ and the talent has for sure also always been exciting. but that misses the nuance of how Southgate has had to manage the squad through a lot of transition. We’re seeing a complete side here, a balanced team crafted through years of subtle tweaks and new players in new roles.
I’m ranting now. Is GS perfect? No. What’s the alternative??
@@theskunkster2315 Sort of true. Maguire is an interesting case study in how players used in different systems see drastically different end results.
Tomori has a lot of flaws, he’s great at covering, strong, probably needs calling up to get game time in friendlies first and to adapt to the way the current setup behaves in transition, both offensively and defensively.
Colwill is undoubtably a future England starter, versatile and in my view is Maguire’s successor. He needs to grow into his role at Chelsea first though. He’s not yet fully adapted to Poch, let alone getting ready for a Euros. We’ll probably see him ready for the next World Cup with a New England MNT manager.
Would hardly call his management of Henderson perfect. The literal exact oppososite in fact. Tone deaf, stubborn, idiotic.
Plebty of managers are capable of having a good vibe whilst also not wasting massive amounts of talent with ciwardly selections and tactics.
best football analyst in the game
Great video, as always. I still dream of an England squad with Longstaff, Gordon, Burn and even a fit Willock in it. How drunk on Geordie passion am I?
I’d definitely consider the first three
None of these guys will even be playing for Newcastle in a couple of years lmao
@@sharkmiiiscool Why?
Gordon will make his way into the England squad.
Don't worry, the English media and a vocal minority of fans will manage to spoil the promising chance. They're consistent that way
I can see England winning despite having Southgate as coach
Southgate is a major reason we've improved as a national side. People slagging him off endlessly just don't get how international management is different to club management.
Capello was a world class club manager who sucked absolutely ass as England manager.
@@NedTesco finally someone with a brain. Also I hate how people criticising this england side and southgate for his boring style of play. But if you look at all the winners of tournaments recently, none of them play attacking football. 2022 Argentina were pragmatic, so was France who have been one of the most consistent best teams in the world in the last 8 years. Also Portugal in 2016 were pragmatic. Litterally, this idea that England HAVE to play attacking/good football, just because of the players we have is an absolute fallacy. Litterally all recent evidence suggests pragmatism wins international tournaments not attacking football.
There is also the point that you made about club and international football being very different which alot of people just can't grasp. The amount of time club mangers have with their players to drill them is litterally day in, day out. International managers have their players probs about 35 days a year, excluding major tournaments. Its ridiculous to compare international football with club football for that and many more reasons
@@davedave4699finally, TWO posters with brains!
The mindless, sheeple like way Southgate critics just regurgitate and repeat the same talking points does my nut in. Can’t anyone think for themselves anymore?!!
Also annoying is the way they look to create straw men to attack the manager: if it’s not Sterling, it’s Mount; if it isn’t Henderson it’s Maguire - non of whom have ever cost their team in critical moments. Quite the opposite.
Yet these football savants on SM are just so sure the manager is clueless without ever asking themselves if England currently plays like a clueless team.
The entitlement of some is breathtaking.
@@davedave4699 his ridiculous favouritism towards certain players despite not even being playing in England like ("Saudi mercenary" Jordan Henderson) over players who actually play well like James Ward Prowse and deserve to represent their country.
Me too but France is gonna be hard to beat ngl
Imagine what this England side can do with a tactically aware manager as opposed to a people person.
How has France"declined ever so slightly"? They have won all their matches post world cup except a friendly against Germany. France are still the favourites. Then its England, Portugal and Spain.
Do we think he will become the best England player ever, the only players we have that are even close to him are Harry Kane and I think saka in a few years time will be as well. Unbelievable talent, he's definitely winning the balloon dor soon
Balloon dor, lol
@@bagpussmacfarlan9008 he's real Madrid's best player, they won the league and the champions league this season he wins next year, unless mbappe wins it for psg or man city wins another treble who is having a better season than him
@@gsampson97no, I was chuckling as you said balloon :) If he keeps playing like he has been he's locked in for it (the balon d'or that is 😉)
its not why he can win us the euros its how he can win us the euros
So you're saying the way Southgate made a tactic change to influence the game was to do nothing and leave it to the players?
I don't know why everyone is acting like this is impossible I think we all know it'll be between France and England in the final but even as a France fan England have a pretty scary team
It’s not nice getting me excited like that Adam, pls stop
If there were a situation with both Kane and Bellingham unavailable through injury or suspension, what sort of team would they be, relatively speaking?
Wait so Southgates impressive tactical switch mid match was... not changing anything tactically and letting Bellingham get on with it on his own?
am I dreaming or is that a picture of John de Wolf behind your desk?
Wait, so Southgate's "in game adjustment" that changed the game was....not changing anything? Might want a logic check there, mate!
Who is more impactful for their national team! Bruno or Bellingham
France haven't declined, Idk what you're smoking
He also said Real Madrid don't need Bellingham????? 😂😂😂😂😂😂Yes they do that's why they signed him before Jude Real Madrid were in shambles they're winning all their games because of Jude because sometimes he's the only one scoring he just sounds like a straight up hater
Colin Bell was even better fact
So basically Southgates tactical masterclass - deciding not to do anything at all when italy are on top and pray one of the best players in the world pulls him out of trouble again.
With saka in the team we can do it
Not before Southgate stops his favouritism antics
England has the best league in the world and the play style is rough and tactically strict. I think that's a bad thing in international context.
It's literally a basement!
Harry kanehas the record Bobby Charlton has the world Cup medal fact
Only when Maguire is not playing 🤣
In previous tournaments england has been a set-piece reliant team to even make chances. Tactics wasn't really a key strength for Southgate. I hope they kick it up a notch
You've all but guaranteed now he'll injure a metatarsal a month before the tournament...
Tournaments are won by teams, stop putting pressure on him he's 20 years old ffs
Chill… this happens every Tournament… England are just not that team
As good as Bellingham is, he's not going to be able to carry the likes of Maguire and Phillips
Trippier was honestly England's worst player. Berardi was playing him out of the park, imagine when he faces an actually good winger
That's cause he was playing out of position
Teams win competitions, not one player. Jude can't do it himself.
No but he's that good, if he's not in the team we won't win but if he's in the team we can. The last player I can remember us having like this was Gazza and that was a long time ago.
The best players make the game easier for their teammates...
Bellingham does that by being able to cover several roles in the team...
If he isn't the best player in the world he's the most complete.
True...people say maradona won the wc all by himself...absolute nonsense...what about burrachaga and valdano?...or Jose Luis Brown...teams win big trophies always have always will
Actually the way he is going...I wouldn't be surprised.
@@leeturton9254Carlos Bilardo also had a big nose
Is he plays as shadow striker?
box to box attacking mid... he created this roles for him self
Adam, learn how to flick Subbuteo players(!) - no way should Foden have ended up face down. I love the fact that you use the players; just learn how to move them 😅
These started early please get your hopes up! I love Jude but England isn’t gonna win the euros.
Same old script, same old story, English media never learns.
Oh god the title is the usual English Paparazzi News Cycle:
1. Bellingham is Jesus! - Comments: "He should be Captain!" , "He should be Prime Minister!"
2. Bellingham is Satan! - Comments: "We did not win the WC/Euros because of him!" , "He missed the penalty!"
C'mon more nuance...
With that said, Bellingham is very good and to add, there's A LOT of very good England players across the team AND squad.
Finally: A better video: Given England have one of the most talented teams/squads: "What are the MAIN FACTORS that could prevent the team performing better and beating other teams and not falling short?"
With what England has: What could be the areas that cause England to fall short. I think that's the big question to ask. With such as Bellingham and Kane etc you're in position to ask those questions with some degree of accuracy and then you're in a position to solve them successfully in time before the big tournaments... not during or after or in retrospect...
Eg England defence was cut up by Italy for their first goal too easily.
Bellingham has his skills almost across the board which in turn means the whole team will perform better with him on the pitch albeit his eye-catching skills and runs are glamorous. But the key is to then boost all the other areas around him...
What do mean italys first goal. They only scored one. They didn't get close to scoring again for the next 80 mins. England were much better but all you can see is that they conceded a goal. Yeah that's football, it happens, the point however is about who scores the most, over 90 mins not 10. Italy just got lucky as England were finding possession too easy and lost concentration. Then they fixed that, switched back on and scored 3 goals and dominated Italy in every position. Every international side is going to produce threats and goals, that's just obvious. Do you think France were thinking 'oh no if kane had scored that penalty we probably wouldn't have won'? Of course they weren't and England played better in that game as well.
I can see the media are determined to turn me into a Jude hater...sigh
As long as England fields Pickfords, Maguires, and Philips, you won’t raise any silverware 😂
whats wrong with pickford
That's cute, we have just beaten the current euro champs twice.
Cope harder.
Hopefully you're not putting a ginch on the team.
Title should read "why England will lose Jude Bellingham the Euros"
two words, gareth southgate
Why would you do this to the English? They've had it hard enough as is the pasrt decade or so. Don't give them false hope!
Lol, English media hyping up a player again. Bellingham was useless & marked out as soon he faced a real team vs atletico Madrid.
It's the foreign players that get overhyped.
Bellingham has been carrying Real Madrid all season you little creep.
Please stop the over hype of Jude Bellingham we always do this in England.
He isn't being overhyped. He is a very, very good player and he is being called a very, very good player. What's wrong with that?
Foreign players get Ballon d'Or shouts after one good game.
Come on this is a very ordinary Italy team. Literally only recognised Barella and Donnarumma on their team sheet. Typical hyping of England only for it to all fall apart when they get knocked out. This is the same England that relegated from the Nations league top division FFS and beaten by Hungary 4-0. All this hype and we are going to win the Euros I have seen countless times before. Let’s talk more next summer and assuming we reach the knock out stages. That is a whole different matter.
And England won’t win playing the likes of Maguire - whose distribution is just so f’ing slow and turns like an oil tanker and Phillips who is not world class pivot as first choices. These are just indications that Southgate picks mediocre players in these positions.
n1
Replace Kierren Philps/Henderson with a James Maddison type England wins the Euros
No, they'll concede 2 goals a game and go out in the group stage. If the weakest part of your team is CB (compare England's defence with that of France and Portugal for example), then a double pivot makes sense
😂😂😂😂😂 This was one of the worst Italian teams ever, even Macedonia can beat them.
Too overhyped 😂😂😂
England won't win it
The most OVERHYPED player in the whole of Europe right now.
Ur just a contrarian mate
@@dharris-rd2md no, I'm not, Bellingham is good, no doubt, but he's not as good as the media paints him to be... Few goals for Real Madrid and they're already comparing him to the likes of Mbappe and Haaland and pitting him to break Ronaldo's Real Madrid's record
@obialex3448 he's been class for over 2 years. His output and influence now have increased hype, but it isn't as though it has come out of nowhere.
@@obialex3448 No one has compared him to Mbappe or Haaland. He's a completely different kind of player. What people are impressed by is his all-round ability at such a young age. He's only just out of his teens and his best years are still very much ahead of him.
I actually can’t believe he’s not getting more coverage. He’s superb. And you’re here saying he’s over hyped. Who the actual fuck are you?
