Welcome to The Good, The Bad and The Football, sponsored by Midnight, the betting app that's built different. Today's guest, folks, 127 Premier League goals, two Premier League golden boots and has reached more finals with England than Thomas Tuchel. Jimmy Floyd, our sub-bank. Welcome, pal.
Thank you, mate.
Jimmy, I'm gutted you're on this episode because I was so excited about you joining us. But it's not a good morning, pal. It's not a good morning.
No, it's obviously not a good morning for me as well. I've worked with the players, with the majority of those players, and I wish them all the best. I watched yesterday and I was an England supporter yesterday and I wanted them to do well. Why don't we just talk about Holland? Well, then I will have a go. But yeah, my girls have been born here. My missus is British. The girls are England supporters. And yeah, it was quite hard to take.
We're going to obviously have our own opinions on it. But for you who's been involved behind the scenes at England, watching that game, the main thing, whether you're a manager, a professional player, a fan, that last 25 minutes...
everybody watching that game was of the same opinion like why is he going why are they sitting back why are they inviting Argentina on when they were there for the taking what were your sort of views on it when you were watching it so after the 1-0 when they are going backwards that is not that is not Tuchel that has nothing to do with Tuchel that is just a mentality of the players thinking oh we need to defend now that 1-0 instead of having the same kind of tactics and having the game in their half, because that's really what they were doing. They were keeping the game as much as possible in Argentina's half and they stopped doing that. And now all of a sudden, back to the wall, you have Kane that is now sitting really deep and you can't get out.
And then after the substitutions, there is where that is Tuchel's decision. Yeah. You know, and he then chooses, you know what, let's defend.
You know, with someone like Harry Kane, sorry, I've got a lot to get off my chest here, lads. We'll all talk in a minute. Should have come a bit earlier then. It's only a matter of time before it's going to pop at your paddy. the thing is I can't really argue with that the road did you not see they've shut the road down I got through a little bit earlier I got through I was on time as well from London from Cobham lads lads go on get off your chest come on come on right I was watching is the players like Kane is there almost like The reliance on him so much, and they talk about Bellingham as well in this World Cup. For me, I'd have taken him off just watching it because he wasn't being effective. He looked like he were knackered.
He looked like he was out on his feet a little bit, Cade. He was dropping so deep. Players like him, will Tuchel just refuse to take him off?
Well, it... with him still being on the pitch. It looks like it, but we don't know that. The only thing that I know is the tactical aspect until the goal was really good. And everybody that was watching the game and understands the game will say England were in the game. And the ball, the goal comes by somebody going into the space and the ball gets played and they win the second ball and it goes to the right and there is a cross. And it's somebody else, what was needed, than Bellingham or Kane stepping up and scoring the goal. But then you have to keep that same concept because they will get more desperate and they are going to take chances. But then on top of that also, I think what England did wrong, every time the ball came to Jordan Pickford, he went long.
And you can't go long. You have to keep on playing. They were just giving it back and they were attacking us again.
Yeah, that was towards the end, wasn't it?
Yeah.
No, well, he did that in the game and quite a little bit too much for my liking. If you look at John Stones, he got angry at him because he understood that you have to keep on passing the ball. You have to keep on moving that ball.
