Pretty much. Recently at least. We did play some really good stuff under Southgate at one point, but then he changed the system.



I think that's a bit strong. It's definitely safety first, but defensive teams seem to do well in the big tournaments. He just needs to get the balance right.
We don't defend well though. Compare the way Spurs defend as a team compared to this England team. There's no real structure or organisation. It just seems to be "get enough players behind the ball and hope for the best."

Walker isn't technically good enough to play that role, it's like watching a shorter Davinson.

Damn that was a nice first touch. The rest was good too but the way he controlled it was superb.
