    He's crap.

    In addition, the future of England looks bleak. Why can't the Football authorities realise money has killed it.

    If we're playing the blame game tonight (which we should be 'cause this is beyond *****) then Rooney is about 14th on the list.

    He was replaced by Dier who was awful and couldn't lace Rooney's boots . Looked head and shoulders above when he came on .

    Dier's a decent player lacking match practice. Rooney has done ok for England but his race is run. How Rashford isn't starting I have literally no clue.

    Dier is just a 6 foot athlete with limited footballing skills . What I can't understand is if he can pass the ball 30 yards backwards why can't help pass the thing 30 yards forwards? Henderson was awful too , just so negative and Sturridge well don't get me started !!

    Dier was by far the best England player at the Euros, without question.

    Granted tonight he wasn't great but he's far better than you are portraying him. Vitriol should be aimed at the likes of Sturridge, Walcott, Henderson, Ali in my humble opinion.

    Thats the worst I have seen us play and that includes Iceland. ******* dreadful.

    I also think Rooney has been **** for months, if not longer, but he's been made a scapegoat for them all. He's still in Englands best team, he isn't the player he was, but **** me, we had some reight mongs in that line up today.

    There's money in every league. That's a tired excuse.

    I did , thanks for asking . That team is desperate for more attacking threat but Rooney get's dropped for Dier who plays like a robot . Rooney has more talent in his little finger than Dier/Henderson/Sturridge/Walcott will ever have . I must say that Townsend played well when he came on and has never let England down but keeps getting dropped . We played 7 defensive players last night and wondered why we didn't score . It was Slovenia for gods sake .

    Lets just continue with drip down economics then. Where the PL dominates every other League clubs' finances

    Did you watch it with your eyes closed? (Asking for a friend).

    I've never met you, you're probably a really nice bloke, but you clearly know eff all about football if you thought Rooney was head and shoulders above the rest of the team and our problem was playing 7 defensive players.

    I'd like to commend your carers, but suggest caution, in introducing you to the internet.

    Your commas are all in the wrong place . So whoever introduced you to English wants sacking . Football is a game of percentages which indicates that if you play one up top you will score fewer goals. Do you really think that Dier and Henderson are better than Rooney? Really ?

    It would be like us playing Accrington Stanley and playing four at the back and two defensive midfielders .
