England player ratings: Jude Bellingham delivers masterful Euro 2024 performance but Phil Foden not at his sharpest
superstar oozed class throughout and broke the deadlock with only 13 minutes played thanks to an excellent header, dispatching Bukayo Saka’s deflected cross.WEIGHTING GAMEJordan Pickford - 7late on.
I think he passed it and deserves another chance to show all the qualities that he can bring to the role.It’s a little bit braver than we have normally seen from Gareth Southgate and I like that. At the start, he was a little bit shaky. He gave the ball away a couple of times, and one of them led to that decent chance for Aleksandar Mitrovic.
But it was difficult for Trent, especially in the first half, for him to show his range of passing. When you’re playing against a back five, with four in front, and they’re stubborn and just waiting . . . it is very hard.And when the ball is going over your head, your job then becomes jumping on second balls, disrupting and trying to shield the big two up front.
Especially in transition, like he did with a lovely one down the side for Saka in the first half and another early in the second.But Trent was not helped by England’s performance in the second half. We weren’t aggressive enough, we didn’t press well enough.
