Gareth Southgate • Tactics, England 2 Spain 2 • Masterclass

SUBSCRIBE to Coaches' Voice: bit.ly/2UCwkxX
Gareth Southgate had won two and drawn one of his first three games - all World Cup qualifiers - in charge of the England national team, but in November 2016 he faced his first genuine test with a visit from 2010 World Cup winners Spain at Wembley. His side flew out of the blocks, as Jamie Vardy ran in behind a static Spanish defence and was brought down by former Liverpool goalkeeper Pepe Reina. Adam Lallana duly slotted home the penalty, and when Vardy rose to head home a Jordan Henderson cross early in the second half England looked in control.
Substitute Theo Walcott wasted a chance to extend the lead to three, and the hosts were made to pay at the death. Another former Liverpool man, Iago Aspas, curled home what looked a consolation on 89 minutes, but Real Madrid midfielder Isco popped up to equalise in the sixth minute of added time. In this exclusive piece for The Coaches' Voice, Southgate explains his approach to the game, the part his team played in the tactics on the day, and what lessons he learned as he continued to build a squad towards Russia 2018.

He's taking about a draw I'm in tears 😂😂😂

[@Forever_Unboxing]

I'd like to see Roy Hodgson explain his tactical masterclass of playing players out of position and letting your main goal threat, who thrives on delivery into the box, take set pieces and corner kicks.

[@Xtravia9]

Hodgson lulls them into a true sense of security.

[@jamiesimms7084]

Xtravia9 I'm laughing so hard 😂 that shit's too funny and too true

[@jb894]

Leave him alone! He did well for an owl

[@stevendchu]

Yeah I'd like to see him explain having Kane, Vardy, Rashford and a fit Sturridge as strikers in your squad, but deciding to play a 4-3-3 when you only have one real winger in Sterling. On top of that, dropping Lallana who was the best player in that tournament for the knockout game to play Sturridge in a role he doesn't suit

[@happyface96]

At Liverpool he played Jamie Carragher as an attacking midfielder.

[@FanofAslan]

A lot of derisive comments on here for Gareth Southgate. I think he's come a long way, and came across in this video as an intelligent, thoughtful yet decisive man. Do not confuse his humility for weakness or cowardice. He seems tactically astute, and his comment that he consulted his players before deciding on the high press vs Spain shows excellent man-management. Too many of our managers (step forward Fabio and Sven) have imposed tactics and systems on our players that failed to utilize our potential strengths and terribly exposed our weaknesses. Now we have players who should get us to the QFs of Russia 2018: let's see how it goes. And let's get behind our English manager of England.

[@pixuull]

Brilliant comment, completely agree. Regardless of what anyone says, we are gonna play football around what our team can realistically do. Southgate isn’t bothered by the pressure or the hype around England it seems and as such I’m excited to see how he does

[@nicknewman7848]

Yes!!! Sven played 442. Because of this decision Stuart Downing played for England when Scholes and Carrick were available. McClaren was out of his depth. Capello wouldn't let Rio Ferdinand have butter on his toast and he disrespected Stuart Pearce. He earned millions to make all the same mistakes we'd seen for the previous 5 years! Hodgeson was a safe choice but was weak tactically, lacked imagination and seemed like more of a Grandad than someone the players really respected. When Alladyce was sacked it may have been a lucky escape. I can't imagine him doing the job Southgate has done with the little time he gets to spend with the players. Your assessment is spot on.

[@holnrew]

So many people not giving him a fair shake. The more I find out about him the more I like him. I'm really glad that big Sam got sacked, it's time for a new approach and Southgate has ideas and the player's respect

[@3chords490]

Yes, he seems thoughtful and humble enough to change things if it’s not working. He’s calm and relaxed. Ticks a lot of boxes for me especially in the psychology side. Different feel about everything he does and I agree about consultation. Asking the players is good man management , I don’t know why people see that as weakness. Players need to enjoy playing and buy into the system they play within.

[@razwanahmed89]

lo and behold! We're in the quarter finals for the world cup 2018!

Tactical Masterclass in getting a 2-2 draw against a below average Spain side?

[@ybench5871]

[@keninjc89]

@Jenson A after 2-0 germany ?

[@olliepreston13]

To be fair though, looking at the players on that pitch and the form they were in, we were very arguably worse than that spain side, whether they were below average or not. The form we were in at club level, let alone the pressure on the international stage, alongside new tactics being introduced so close to a big game, followed by the poor mentality they must have and even worse confidence. These players had poor fitness because their club and previous international coaches weren’t training them properly. To be honest i think southgate did pretty well

[@carlybishop6160]

This was about 8 weeks after losing Iceland 2-1 in the Euros and we know how that went! In comparison 2-2 with the same team sound's like a miracle

Best manager since Hoddle. England finally have a plan, the players to suit and this man is showing his achievements at U21 level were no fluke. In the past we’ve banged on about heart and desire and tried to shoehorn players randomly into an unbalanced team. Now we are organised, effective and playing the right players, utilising their strengths, picked on merit not reputation. Long may it bloody continue! So much admiration for Southgate, his approach, planning with Steve Holland (who I believe is right on the same wavelength and equally worthy of praise), and he deserves all the plaudits coming his way...

I'd like to hear Fabio Cappello explaining his masterclass for 2010 WC in South Africa. Playing 4-4-2 with a single natural winger and 3 good advance midfielders. Gerrard, Barry,Lampard and Lennon. I'd really like to hear his idea of playing Stevie G off position as left winger, while he could have easily deployed Rooney as a no 10 a false 9 to link up Stevie G, G Barry and Frankie with S.W Phillips &Lennon coming from wings to goals, or simply Deffoe and Heskey as double strikers, with that diamond shape of Gerrad,Lamps,Barry and Wazza. That was a side simply made to go far tactical along with their technical abilities. But he did what he believed was best to keep his job, and I'd really want to jear his ideas on his approach.

With Gareth Southgate I always feel he gets the right players on the pitch in the right positions. If they don’t perform and don’t get a result, it’s invariably because an individual player did not play well, not because he was picked to play in the wrong position on the pitch.

[@unclegoon347]

So press high but also stay compact & don’t press too early. Also be careful pressing because we’re not great on the ball. Got it.

[@markriley5863]

Just one question - who is Derek Dier and why isn't he in the World Cup squad?

[@mohamedabdelkader8665]

Southgate has not yet been able to apply the plan he prepared with the English team before arriving in Russia ,as he relied in the friendly matches and matches qualifying for the World Cup defensive style and then the counter attack. The question is why ? because all the teams that played against them play strong defensive methods and therefore did not enable him to play the plan already drawn. Now I'm not able to know the thought and style of Southgate on the pitch and that may extend to the time of his match with Sweden, which plays a fast and balanced ball between defense and attack . Example When The English team scored the first goal i expected from Southgate to drag the Colombian team to his plan and to impose himself but he didn't what we saw from Southgate , he killed the game in the middle of the pitch and this caused the Colombian team to have the ball and build an attack until the equalizer scored. Dele Alli needs to be left out ,he doesn't have the speed on the ball to get away from players. He has just been flicking on balls or going sideways always looks very heavy when he has the ball .never looks like he is going to make anything happen .England needs someone more dynamic to be able to link with Lingard when breaking forward ,i think Loftus much better with Lingard . The trick is to involve( Jamie Vardy), who doesn't suit the attacking system for England So far.

It would be fair enough to laugh hard at England in penalty shootouts. At the WC they've only been knocked out in open play three times since 1970 (that was to a handball goal in 1986, 2-1 to Brazil in 2002 and then to Germany in 2010 after the worst goal line call in football history). They've exited on penalties three times, and gone out at the group stage once (compare that with Italy, who've gone out at the group stages twice).
