Fpcity Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Anyone watching? 2 errors that could cost us. Tammy just equalising. He should've been starting from the start instead of Calvet-lewin who will never be a clinical striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yardy Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Far too many mistakes from Boothroyd is this U21 tournament i am sure he will be facing the axe. The first game we was 1-0 up then had Chouhury sent off when he gave away a penalty, so Boothroyd brings on 2 strikers and plays them both out wide. Also shocking to see Phil Foden and Tammy on the bench today when it was a must win game. Shocking tournament for our young lads considering the immense ability we have in the squad.

cidered abroad Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Boothroyd? How does he justify leaving out Tammy who is a natural goalscorer. Kelly lucky he hasn't been tainted by being on the pitch. So Tomori is better than Lloyd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunc Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Pure speculation, but reckon Aidy Boothroyd is a big Farage fan. Must win game and rest your best player. Madness!! Great drama though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How on earth did Boothroyd get the job though? The limits of his talents were shown by his ugly Watford side. He just seems to be a man out of his time and his depth.

steviestevieneville Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Individual errors in both games and starting with Calvert Lewin this game and solanki last , neither of them goal scorers . Missed plenty of chances as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lloyd for me every time over him. Calvert Lewin looks the part with his size, strength and pace but movement rivals Fams. Tammy possibly looks awkward at times but he gets results. Tammy over both Solanke and DCL. Dowell isn’t a holding midfielder and is far too one footed. Choudoury being suspended forced that however. Foden is on a different level than Mount and even Maddison. Playing Gray on the right wasted his talents. He is so up and down performance wise but at least on the left he can do what he did for the goal. The team selection was odd and the way they played was reminiscent of England pre Southgate.

Denbury Red Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Boothroyd has just said “we played some fantastic stuff” - the only time that happened was the last 10 minutes of tonight’s game. He totally got the tactics wrong - inept! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merrick's Marvels Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Great news - now we can get da silva sorted or, if he thinks we're too small time, we can crack on and find ourselves a left back. As for boothroyd - gass ncut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree completely that Clarke Salter is not that good. He was terrible at Rovers apparently. Was awful at Sunderland, and just had a loan at a worse league than the championship imo in the Dutch league for Vitesse. An example of that league being easier is Lewis Baker doing really well for Vitesse, but coming to championship and not looking so good. Generally it's not as tough a league, so Clarke Salter maybe playing well over there does not necessarily make him good enough to get in this under 21 side. Lloyd Kelly was absolutely superb in 2 under 21 games alongside Tomori who was also outstanding. I don't get why he changed that partnership. I like Calvert Lewin, but yeah Tammy more the goalscorer. Solanke in the first game was a ridiculous decision. Doesn't play and his first touch hardly suits a team keeping the ball on the deck. But then in that first game there were a lot of chips over the top that generally just bounced through to goalie. Strange tactic by Boothroyd there. Obviously the subs in that France game made no sense whatsoever. Absolutely spot on about Dowell. He has so far from what I have seen been more a number 10, very advanced. Not sure what Boothroyd is thinking there either. We should be beating France imo, and going on and winning or at least coming close to winning this competition. He should never have got the job. I do not really understand what the FA are thinking with some of their appointments at times. I expect he talks well to the press or whatever. Does he get results and understand the modern game? Don't think he does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
