    We didn't play Germany or Argentina. Losing to Uruguay and Italy is one thing. Argentina or Germany would've been dreadful.

    Yawnnnn. I'm sure you'd have loved them to beat us as well.

    ??? bizarre reply because I'd love to still be in the world cup. It has instantly become less interesting since we exited. I was hoping we could navigate the group and get a big show down between us and a genuinely good side and then somehow come home with something to be proud of.

    John Stones will become England's centre half after this tournament. At least we shall have one defender who can 'read' the game.

    We need one more to play along side him too.

    John Stones can't possibly be the best England defender. He doesn't play for Man Utd or Chelsea.

    Exactly. I am convinced that had he signed for Man Utd or Chelsea he would have gone to Brazil.
