    Pointless game. Just looked at teams. I have more affinity with the Irish side.

    Does Harry Winks even play for Spurs? Just don’t feel attached to England at all - in fact I didn’t know there was a game on til i flicked thru the channels.

    It's ridiculous that they're playing international friendlies.

    The qualifiers for the Euro finals are fair enough - but Portugal v Andorra? Mexico v South Korea - in Austria?

    No interest in this one tonight. Pointless friendly. Come on Scotland

    Bet Conor is thrilled to be back at Wembley. What a shame it’s empty

    Egan off for Ireland, which serves him right for the sin of chewing gum whilst playing.

    If it's a bad injury, that's another nail in Yoonited's coffin.

    I love Southgate’s England. Most interested this last few years than I’ve been for years. Really good football, a deep pool of players to choose from.

    Are they playing tonight? Having to take two weeks off following Barnsley while they do this nonsense was the single drawback of staying up.

    I'm watching USA vs. Wales, kinda pointless like you say but we've been playing alright. I see England are doing well too

    Absolutely hate that pretty much anyone can get a cap. Not entirely Southgate’s fault, when clubs pull players, but far too many average players being capped.

    I’m struggling to know who most of these people are. I rarely watch England live and I’m not sure I will stay to the end seeing as I’m an hour ahead of UK time. As the goals went in I just thought....meh, I don’t really care.

    Each to their own! :D

    I love this current setup. So many good players. We’ll win at least one of the next three tournaments in my opinion.

    Not so sure on that one. Loved the world cup though.

    Jury out for me. Too ball greedy. I love players taking their chances, but he hilds the ball when there is an easy pass to set other players free.

    Hope so - just can’t see how he narrows down from the 30 or so players to the 16 that win a trophy.
    And i like Southgate more than most previous managers.
