    Pathetic display, should be thrashing a team who could only draw against Scotland.


    :D

    Well that was a bit better. Hopefully the improvement carries on in the second half.

    We nearly played as well as Barnsley normally do in that half.

    Well done Gareth.

    A little bit better without being great. A bit more movement on the edge of the box would be nice esp when Saka and Bellingham are running the ball

    Saka has been the better of the 3 to now.

    Correct. I posted that comment before the match started. We still have a massive issue on the left, nobody willing to try and stretch the game down that side. I'd bring Gordon on for Trippier, Gordon loves to keep wide, and has pace to burn. The rest of it, barring the need for a bit more snap in the passing in the midfield, we look ok.

    England getting the ball into the penalty area? What's going on?

    Not quite there but much better, and against a much better opposition too.

    Is it me, or have all the commentators/panel received a brown envelope. Its better than it has been, but some of the comments seem absolutely barmy to me.

    I said the same, if Toney or Watkins were in for Kane we'd be 2 up now. He's just standing flat, watching Saka's crosses flash across in front of him

    Hes not for arsenal so no idea why he is for England?

    An improved performance, this time actually against a team who is sitting deep! Wish we changed Kane though and had a striker to run into the box directly more often, would help Saka.
    Again, not having a natural left back has been our downfall so far. No natural width. Trippier always coming inside

    It's you I'm afraid, it is a lot better, not fantastic, but better.

    I’ve said it’s better, but can’t accept that the press has been fantastic and we’re by miles the better team.

    Saka has been good and the defence has been solid.
    We’ve also found Pickford within 4 passes from a corner.

    Southgate is **** scared of changing things. He couldn't make a decision if his life depended on it.
    Kane needs taking off. (He'll probably score now :D).

    Just said, Kane getting an injury is our best chance of us winning this match.
