England head coach Gareth Southgate is under pressure after his tactics and team selections lead to miserable display in a draw against Denmark

Gareth Southgate got a lot wrong on Thursday, but he got two things right. Speaking just after his team's dire 1-1 draw with Denmark, the England head coach admitted his group has 'problems.' Nailed it. No argument there. And Southgate was right on the money when he predicted the English public and press would be deeply 'disappointed' with the pair of displays at Euro 2024 so far.

We are not using the ball well enough and we have to accept that if you do that you will suffer at times, as we have tonight. We know there is a level we have to find.' Southgate denied that he instructs his teams to become actively more cautious once they go into the lead. 'No,' he said. ‘We've played teams that are fluid and it is not easy to get pressure on them. We have got to do better than we have in the last two matches.
