Football News: Euro 2024, Champions League, and More
Former Manchester United defender Gary Neville did not hold back in his critique of England’s first-half performance against Slovenia in the ongoing Euro 2024 tournament. The Three Lions failed to silence doubts about their attacking prowess, struggling to find the back of the net once again.
Neville’s Scathing Half-Time Analysis
During the half-time analysis, Gary Neville adopted a brutally honest approach. “What we’re watching there is just a collection of single passes,” Neville told ITV. “Each player gets it [the ball] and works out what they’re going to do next. There’s no real in-built patterns.”
“It’s all off the cuff. At international football, sometimes that can happen through familiarity, but you obviously still need to work on that. We look really basic. Honestly, we look really basic – and it’s sad, because I think we’re better than that. The players out there are better than that, and I also think the players we’ve got on the bench are better than that.”
England’s Road Ahead in Euro 2024
