Will listen out for it. I enjoy hating commentary. Lee Dixon just having a go at someone's height.

What's wrong with Matterface?

Neville and Co don't half talk shite. "When attacking players talk in the dressing room you listen". I mean what in the fuck is he talking about.

Some positives: 1. Bellingham could win the tournament on his own 2. We won and kept a clean sheet 3. Teams have won major tournaments with a backs against the wall style. Italy were famous for it, Greece etc. 4. There's half a chance we might find a better formula as we progress.

The issue is that once again once a little bit of pressure comes, England retreat into their shell. From a tactical perspective, Southgate has them in such a negative mindset. When they meet resistance, there is no character. When Serbia came onto England, surely that was the time to go and beat them? They opened themselves up. Instead we found ourselves hoofing the ball long or relying on Bellingham to find a way out. Pickfords goal kicks went long every time. I'm sorry, can we not beat Serbias press? Two of our defenders play for City, Trippier is good on the ball and I'm sure Guehi is competent enough, never mind the rest of the side. I can't for the life of me understand how Foden stayed on the pitch. He gave the ball away numerous times. He's staying on because of his reputation. He's making the same mistake every other England manager has, sticking by his favourites and not having the guts to drop players in favour of having a balanced side. The game was begging for Gordon. His pace and counter attacking ability would have changed the game. There was a time when nobody on the left was willing to take players on and only Saka and Bellingham had done it all game. Too much side ways passes, which comes down to a lack of character. Some players yesterday showed they had the balls: Saka, Bellingham, Rice, Guehi. Some didnt: Foden, Trent. Against Denmark I'd be "resting" Foden and Trent. Bring in Gordon and Wharton and tell them to go and play FFS.

Not a great save. Its a save that he has to make.

Bit of Jason Tindall there.

Fodens head has gone.

I like Bowen but fuck me.

Bowen.

Is Southgate waiting for us to concede or something? Be proactive FFS.

Kane doesn't press whatsoever. Southgates block is so infuriating. Get some pace on.

If Gordon comes on, he will change this game.

Mainoo for Trent needed.

Gordon for Trent. Shift Foden across.

We haven't even got out of 3rd gear IMO. They will get tired, it will open up and we will get another 2/3, especially when the subs come on.

I think England have been superb. They haven't created loads but they've been in so much control and they ooz class.

Kane hasn't been involved but he's doing the right thing by not dropping deep. Don't need him there.

Bellingham gonna have his tail up in this tournament.

That's why he's class.

Class.

Frightning how good this england front line is. Genuinely the best in the world.

I agree. We seem to do this... build a squad with loads of talent and then forget its a team game. We tried this with Lampard and Gerrard and it failed.

Totally agree. The worst is those who get annoyed by the song 3 lions. Fucking boring bastards. Although I 100% only turn up for England tournaments.

Rio Ferdinand talks too much and talks over people. Cunt.
